I dont know what took me so long. It wasn't as big of a thing as I thought it would be. In reality, it is just hair. :)



My hair is 4a/4b (thanks to the ladies here, I was able to figure that out) :). The reason I BC'ed was for no other reason in that I needed to choose between either coloring, or relaxers. Because I am prematurely gray (since at least 5 years old...I am 31), the relaxers had to go. I have been natural before and I love my hair texture. This time I am natural and it is for keeps.

There are pieces/sections of my hair that are straight from root to tip. I know this is because I wear wigs all day every day. I hope that some day they will revert back... :perplexed However there are a few relaxed bits that are here and there, but I am still claiming 100% natural! :D

Background:

Last relaxer 9/1/2009.

Dyed hair 10/18/2009

About 2 1/2 inches of new growth (my growth was super fast at first and the slowed the last month and half).
