Natural Journey 38 Years in the Making

I always remember having a head full of hair that was uncontrollable and unmanageable.  From the age of 9 I always wanted to do my own hair, and did not desire to wear 2 or more ponytails in my hair.  Slicking my hair back in one ponytail was a difficult task.  I remember a friend telling me "I always thought you had a cone head", and that was because my hair was so think it didn't lay flat. 

I always loved when girls had long luxurious curls.  So at the age of 10 I attempted the jheri curl!! Man o Man I do not wish to post pics of that hair style, but it is apart of where I have been and where I am now.  After 20+ years of relaxing and that 1 year of the jheri curl, I learned that my hair has a natural curl and I didn't need the jheri curl. One day I became acquainted with "Cream Crack" also known as the relaxer. I was literally addicted to the the hair crack, and experienced many ups and downs.  My hair grew to lengths that I thought I would never achieve, but I also lost a lot on my bathroom sink.  So in addition to learning I have curls, I also learned that when I want to wear my hair straight I don't need the creamy crack, aka relaxer.

October 2010 was my last relaxer, and Decemer 23, 2010 I chopped off all my hair also known as
the "BC" Big Chop.
