Today's the day...

So I'm getting my hair cut today. I'm excited to see what it looks like once everything is said and done. I have pictures that I want to take in so they can see the exact shape of the cut. I hope I don't annoy them but I seriously need them to do this correctly. Depending on how it turns out, I'll post pictures. I don't think they can mess this up but you neverrrr know.

Of course I'm obsessed

As I've stated in a previous post I was thinking about cutting and I'm for sure going to have it done on Wednesday. I have a picture of the bob I want and everything. Thing is because of my afro textured hair, I'll probably have to straighten my hair before I go in. Well the roots of my hair are natural and the rest is relaxed but I still want to straighten so they can do an accurate cut. I've seen stylist cut straighter/wavy hair while wet but I'm not too sure that will work for my hair. I'm nervous. I hope that the person who does my hair doesn't fudge it up or anything. You can only cut hair one time and wait it out to grow back.

Cutting

So I have decided to cut my hair. I’ll probably do it some time next week. I’m trying to decide what kind of hair shears to get. I have some right now but they are the cheap ones from Sally’s Beauty Supply and by cheap I mean under $10. But the ones I’m going to get shouldn’t be over $20. Not much different right? Lol For some reason I feel a little bit better getting scissors that cost a little bit more even if it is just a step above basic. I plan off taking off an inch (at the most) in the back and cutting some long bangs in the front. This would really be awesome if I was wearing my hair straight often, but I don’t plan on doing so… I mean I could, but I don’t want to hinder any growth that I’m going to get. Unless, I’m super careful but then what’s the point if I don’t have that salon swang. I will probably be mad at myself after I cut my hair and find that I can’t do certain hairstyles anymore, but right now I’m frustrated and some more of the hair has to go. We’ll see how this goes.

Transitioning... continued

So right now I'm almost nine months post relaxer and I'm not enjoying my transition at this point. I don't know what to do with my hair. Should I cut my hair again or just ride it out? I really don't like the difference in the two textures. It's so ugly to me (not my natural hair, my relaxed hair). BUT I'm not too comfortable going shorter than shoulder length unless I find the energy somewhere to keep a bangin ass bob. And I can't say for sure that I'll be able to keep that up. I'll most definitely be doing the big chop next year or at least a major hair cut of some sorts. I can't wait until this is over. I will NEVER EVER EVER EVER relax my hair again. It's totally not for me. I initially relaxed my hair out of boredom. That is never a good look. Next time that happens to me while I'm natural I'll just cut my hair or put some color in it. I'll never do something as drastic as a perm again. I'm thinking of cutting my hair and using a kinky, curly weave to grow it out. We shall see...
