It was during this stretch that I discovered that I could go natural. I just wouldn't be a long term transitioner unless I do it while protective styling b/c I experienced some breakage during that stretch. I look forward to seeing what you decide.Kathy Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09787288751070351540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211270544777292152.post-2392021932195748542013-08-29T14:46:43.736+01:002013-08-29T14:46:43.736+01:00I think transitioning is a great time to get to kn...I think transitioning is a great time to get to know your hair even better. The new growth and your relaxed ends probably like different products and certainly behave very differently. I would also consider hair styles and time as well. If you prefer straight hair and don’t have a lot of time, maybe going natural right now isn't the best time; you might find yourself frustrated. I’m almost 9 months post, and I’m still deciding. No rush lol. <br /><br />Definitely post pics of your braids/twists and let us know how you’re feeling in 2 months!<br />Neisha Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02156272407153984441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4211270544777292152.post-16560557809076714372013-08-29T14:22:47.067+01:002013-08-29T14:22:47.067+01:00I think about transitioning near the end of long s...I think about transitioning near the end of long stretches too. I rarely rock my hair straight (anymore), I love big hair, and being texlaxed is only a shake & bake away from being chemical straightener free. <br /><br />Folks like <a href="http://www.blogger.com/profile/07547984641675832172" rel="nofollow">Age in ATL</a> makes it look so easy! Check her blog while you're in your braids to get a first hand look at long-term transitioning. It's not really about if you *can do it* and more about if you *want* to do it. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.savingourstrands.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">www.savingourstrands.blogspot.com</a>KLP @ SavingOurStrandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16351404032388180656noreply@blogger.com
