Thread: How do you get your relaxed hair to become natural?

I tried to cut my hair today to transition but I guess I relaxed it too recently. My hair is straight all the way through. I cut my hair real short and it's still not an afro.

I've had my short hair become curly after not relaxing for a while, so will this happen? Do I need to buzz it? Or should I let it grow and then try chopping again?

Let it grow and tried to cut it later.

You'll start to see your natural texture when your hair grows out. Just be patient.

i didnt get rekaxers for 4 months and i cut my permd ends off and now i have a 2.5" curly fro. you need to waut at least 3 months before u want to see curls since hair grows .5" a month

relaxing your hair is an irreversible process because it breaks the bonds that make your curly. you cannot turn relaxed hair back to natural hair.

you have a couple of options when going natural. you could either cut everything all off and let your hair grow or wait a couple of months, no more relaxers and cut of all the straight relaxed hair. if you cannot tell the difference between your relaxed hair and natural hair go to a reputable salon and let them do it for you. not all natural hair is the same. curly hair doesnt mean natural hair. my hair is natural but not really curly. its just really thick.

I apply oil and massage my hair well.
