4 Reasons to not give up on transitioning...

by Tammy Goodson of CurlyChics

How many times have you heard “I want my hair to look like yours” only to get the side eye when you explain to them that you are relaxer free? Their face completely deflates and they are immediately defeated. As if it’s the world’s best kept secret. So many women think they simply can’t do it or they think the only way to go natural is to do the big chop. “I don’t want to cut all my hair off”. You don’t have to cut it all off, you tell them. You can transition. Easier said than done, I know. I was a two time transitioner and the first time after 8 months I was done. It was too much for me and I simply wasn’t ready. Round two was equally as rough, however, I stuck it out that time. So it got me to thinking, what kept me in the game? What was different this time? Why didn’t I give up? Once the process has begun, these are the things I kept in mind.

Though versatility of style and color are great, some say certain colors and styles should come with an age cap. I absolutely disagree.

I've been natural for over 13 years now from Locs to Coily Curls and received many comments about my natural hair, both positive and negative. From both males and females. For some reason, the latter tend to weigh heavier than the former. Around the time that I started my transitioning process from perm to curls I met someone who became my love interest during my senior year of high school. My best friend always was rocking her curly hair and as he looked at her then looked at me , he was touching my hair. “I really hope that your hair turns out like hers,” he said. " oh how I love curly hair." But I felt I was in struggle with my transitioning process and didn't know how to come out of it so I just nod and smiled.Read On!>>>
