TODAY after getting my daily fix of YouTube 'Naturals' I made up my mind that I was going to BC and DC. "MmmmHmmm. Yes, Honey."
I just got 'life' watching those natural hair journey montages...and I was ready to rid myself of the dueling textures, and be FREEEE! So the plan was to go out, run my errands, and come home to BC and DC...
Well, by the time I got back in I had a change of heart. It may be strange, and probably unfounded but I feel like my relaxed ends protect my hair. As long as they are healthy I feel I don't have to worry about causing split ends or damage to the natural hair that grows above them. Also, I want to remain true to my plan and transition for a full year before BC'ing. Yeah, it'd be nice to just cut off my relaxed ends and have the ability to rock twist-outs, bantu knot-outs, and mini twists without having to try to blend my textures, or worry about having twists in my hair that are plump at the top and thin at the ends. But I'm going to be patient and endure this transition as closely to plan as possible. Because once I cut my ends, it's no turning back. My relaxed ends are my security blanket, and right now, at this point in my transition I still need them. I keep getting excited about the growth, and each day I grow more confident about a BC, and I know when the time is right, I will just do it...and upload pictures;) Until then... nothing new with my hair. I'm still transitioning.
