I started my natural hair journey actually on accident. I was just simply frustrated with the way my hair was breaking off and thought I would just "take a break" from the relaxers for a while, so I started wearing half wigs and just braiding my hair, but never had a regimen or anything. I then realized that I had a significant amount of natural hair growth and was unsure if putting a relaxer in my hair was a good idea since the embarkation between the relaxed hair and new growth would be pretty weak and probably break anyways, so I just decided to check out You Tube and I hit the information highway!
I spent countless hours on YouTube trying to figure this situation out and get the courage to come out and just start wearing my real hair. I transitioned a little while, but couldn't take the two textures so I just chopped off all the relaxed ends and started the 2 strand twists...my go to style that has changed over the months. I love to see the length that I have retained since I committed to natural hair. I don't have a specific date of when I started transitioning but I know that in June 2010 I decided no more wigs and got the courage to begin the outing process of handling my two textures publicly. Well that did not go well so I quickly decided to to the big chop some time in July I think. So I guess it will be 3 years July 2013 that I became a nappy girl and I love my curls I don't miss the "creamy crack" and I won't go back!

Many people ask me what my go to style is and I would have to say mini twists hands down! I don't mind putting in 8 hours of twisting while watching a movie or 3 just to have a couple weeks of basically time free styling and best of all my hair is being protected and getting healthy each day it is not being chemically process or assaulted with flat irons. it has grown tremendously and my goal is bra strap length hair after that it can do what it wants..lol except for break off or fall out...lol not an option!
So I decided to try and compile all my 2 strand twist pics, I hope this works...lol
