Greetings from South Florida
I have been transitioning for 8 months now (October2010). I actually had been weening myself off the "creamy crack" for about two years because I was only getting relaxers twice a year. I have always had long healthy hair (as healthy as it could be considering the chemicals), I believe my mom relaxed my hair at 5. The funny thing is she did my hair all the way through high school. When I got to college, i budgeted for a stylist every two weeks, and my roomate taught me how to wrap it up and comb it down. When I got a real job, i made sure i visited the salon every two weeks. This journey has made me learn my hair. I have handled my own hair during these 8 months more than all of my life. I now know how to wash my own hair (Surprise, I first washed my hair at the age of 29 LOL). My hair has always been long shoulder length to midback, so I am not ready to BC, Especially since i still tear up watching other youtubers BC. I figure that' will be my sign when I am ready. I am blessed that my husband doesn't care if its long short or curly, (he's actually hoping for a TWA) My mom is not happy about this decision but I understand, she is from an era where kinky and nappy , were not something to be proud of and long hair was your "crown and glory" . But thanks to this site and a couple of others, I am Proud of my kinkiness, I am currently suffering from HIHS because of this love.
