Hello Loves,
That’s right; I have finally concluded that I am
transitioning from relaxed hair to natural. For those who might not be aware of
what I mean exactly, I have decided to stop relaxing my hair and gradually cut
of the relaxed bit as I grow out my natural texture. I am currently at 7 months
plus some weeks since my last relaxer (16th of March) and as the
days go by, I continue to consider big chopping. My initial schedule involved
MAYBE big chopping at the 9th month mark, but I am getting very
curious every day now. I believe I have about 3.5+ inches of new growth and in
order to tame my curiosity, I decided to get me some crochet braids. But can I
just say, it is not helping. LOL
Anyways guys, that is it. I need some advice from those that transitioned and those that big chopped. How long did you transition for? How much growth did you have when you big chopped? Were you scared of the ‘short do’? Do you love that you big chopped rather than long term transitioned?
Please feel free to share and comment about your experiences, it may help others come to a decision about their hair journey.

I know you've already big chopped, I think that's really bold and I admire it. I am scared of the short 'do and my mum is even more scared so I dare not. Lol
ReplyDeleteI've been transitioning for a year now and still going.
Hahahah thank you, thank you. Your hair looks amazing and I am sure it'll look amazing once you do the big chop. But once you are ready, you'll know. I revised my big chop date twice before I actually cut it, not based on any of my intial plans. I just knew I was ready and didnt even really flinch. My mother on the other hand? "OMG Dumebi, you cut your hair? haba now" Her words LOL. but then I explained and she was like okay, it sha looks good. Heheh
