Well my wonderful readers, I have finally made the leap to natural! On December 27, 2009 I did a live broadcast of myself cutting the rest of my relaxed ends off. It was such a freeing feeling to not have to deal with damaged chemically treated hair any longer. As I write this, I am uploading an abridged version of the live broadcast to YouTube. I was so nervous (with excitement) while I was snip snip snipping away! Because of my nervousness, the original broadcast was longer than I planned, and I jabbered non-stop.
I just love playing with my curls and coils without the limp straightened hair in the way. I went to Vegas the day after the chop, but I wore a wig to protect my hair from the elements (it was cold in Vegas last week—brrrr!) Since it’s been pretty warm here back home in Palm Springs, my hair has been allowed to be free and wild. I gave it a really nice, deep conditioning treatment yesterday, and my hair is thanking me non-stop LOL. Right now my hair is just to the bottom of my neck. My plan is to have my hair be at least shoulder length by December 2010. I think that if I make sure that I don’t do too much my hair will flourish and continue to be healthy and gorgeous for years to come.
