😩HOW I TURNED MY HAIR(and my bra) around! 😍
The photo on the left is from summer 2022. I started going natural from relaxed hair in Jan of 2022…so basically all my hair and ends was relaxed and needed to be cut.
It was a rough time for me as I lost weight and my bra was all crinkly and so was my life. 🥹🫠
The photo on the right is my hair now….its 100% 4C natural.
Here’s what I’ve been doing the last 3 years:

Transitioning from relaxed to natural hair can be a life-changing experience, especially for those with textured hair. Many individuals face challenges during this journey, including managing their hair health and style. It's essential to maintain a nourishing hair care regimen that promotes growth and restores moisture. Utilizing products like Olaplex and deep conditioning treatments can significantly improve the quality of your hair. Regular routines involving leave-ins, oils, and protective styles such as Bantu knots can protect hair from damage and enhance hydration. Experimenting with products suited for 4C hair is crucial for achieving defined curls. Additionally, embracing your natural hair texture contributes to self-acceptance and personal style evolution. Consider joining communities online dedicated to natural hair care where you can share experiences, tips, and support. Many resources are available on YouTube that offer tutorials and advice for various hair types, making it easier to navigate the transition. With patience and attention, anyone can enjoy the beauty of their natural hair while finding confidence in their unique style.
