Ok am I having a proud mommy moment, YUP! I am so happy. I know her hair will be thick, full and beautiful. She has a tightly coiled texture (I think a 4 not sure the # yet). My baby was teased all the time as a youngster about her hair and requested perms all the time. If it wasn't permed it was braided in some style or another to cover up what she had growing underneath.
She cut her hair short this past spring break wanting to get it healthier BUT she permed it. Her hair is growing really fast and she has seen the coils of her new growth popping through. She is wondering, like I am, what she would look like with her hair in it's natural state. Right now she has it braided. She's keeping it under wraps for at least 6 months to a year, until she gets a good amount of hair under there and then she'll start cutting off the permed ends. SHE'S TRANSITIONING! This is major for her! She even told her best friend she was doing it. My daughter is a very popular girl at school. I wonder what the reaction will be when she lets her hair loose. She told me she didn't care what people might say. Luckily she has the confidence to pull it off and I am so proud of her!

GO! GO! GO!
That's wonderful! Going natural is so earthy and beautiful! The transition is really big; I had to get use to mine. Now I'm loving it and will not go back to relaxers! I'm cheering her on! Kawanna
She says "Thank you" I let her read the comments.
