I have always had my hair relaxed and have always been able to cornrow hair but it's a tiresome process for me to do my own. I am blessed to have a niece that can braid cornrows with or without weaved hair added. She prefers to braid natural (nappy) hair because it braids and looks better than straight hair. So that is an added bonus for me. - wam587 Thu, 06 Nov 2008 09:03:27 +0100 http://naturalhaircareguide.com/index.php/Going-Natural/How-To-Go-Natural/Growing-It-Out.html#comment-259 Trasitioning is definately a test of your patience. Dealing with two hair textures, particularly when the relaxed portion is extremely overprocessed, can be overwhelming. I toyed with the idea of doing the BC every time I washed my transitioning hair. I found it easier to cut my hair in stages. Every few weeks I cut off a couple of inches. This way I could avoid the trauma of going from long hair to the TWA. I did the BC after 10 weeks of growth and it was the best thing I could have every done. I reasoned that if I could wear my hair pulled away from my face in a bun, it should look just fine cropped. All the wasted worries about my husband and co-workers reactions turned out to be wasted energy. It is amazing how feminine I feel. Shorter hair gives me encourages me to emphasize my skin and eyes more. I just love it! - Nica Thu, 02 Oct 2008 13:23:18 +0100 http://naturalhaircareguide.com/index.php/Going-Natural/How-To-Go-Natural/Growing-It-Out.html#comment-248 Transitioning is trying my Faith!!!!
