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!
