Amen sista!!! I was 12 when I got my 1st relaxer and lost all of my length. It’s seems like every little girl in my family ruined their hair around the same age. The cycle ends with my daughter!!
yeah my sister is telling me not to do it, so are friends, but is my hair and i am going to do what i want with it, it will be healthier and natural. i can’t wait.
I love this vid and the song its beautiful and makes me so proud that I’m not alone on my transitioning journey. So many fam members, old friends, even my classmates (i’m in hair school) criticize me for going natural, and complain like I ask them to do my hair. I do my own hair, I’m doing this not them. I can’t wait til they see my hair when it gets longer. I know they are secretly jealous cuz they are afraid of being different, not me I like being an individual and not looking like others.
That is awful. I remember when I went natural as a teenager, my mother, aunts and grandmother HATED it. I would hear them talk about my hair every day. Hang in there. It took eight years, but my mother is now natural. At least I inspired one of my female relatives to give up those chemicals.
I’m 23, and I wish I had the intelligence at 14 that you have!!! If I had, I wouldn’t have lost all my hair!!!! I’m natural now though, and growing it back.
wow, hang in there, its so sad how many black women dont like natural hair or think its “bad” hair
but so many people are going natural nowadays,were moving away from that perm and weave era
Same here, I’m saving money to move out right now b/c my mother is biased against natural hair and refuses to let me go natural and almost kicked me out the house b/c I said relaxers were not necessary and i wouldn’t relax my hair. I had to in the end but I’ll see my curls someday, I just hope they can hold on until then.
I went natural when i was 15, stayed natural for a year then cut my hair into a swing bob and got a relaxer. im now going natural again. i loved it my allergies started to subside and everything when i was natural. its crazy how the chemicals of a relaxer can cause sum things to change. i cant wait to cut the processed ends off of my hair!!!!
I’ve decided to go natural because i love the look! I’m only 14, and lost all of my hair to perms because all of my friends had them..”BSHHH” im happy now, i’m leting my hair free!
this is a good video
i decided to go natural this year in july and its been great since then….i’m luvin my natural hair
it grows faster now..relaxers sure messed me up
It’s sad that we have been brainwashed to believe our natural hair is ugly. I used to say, “Why can’t I just wash my hair and comb it out? Why do I have to go through all these rituals to make it look like a white women.” About eight months or so ago, I said to myself, I don’t have to. I feel so free now. Trying to be something you are not is sooo hard. Being yourself is easy!! Ladies be yourself. (Plus, I don’t wear make-up)
