Decision Natural...Natural Decision!

When I decided to go Natural back in September after I had done the last relaxer and found my hair to be limp and flat and thining out I wanted to get rid of the hair on my head. I thought it was going to be easy u know let it grow and work it....ha ha ha yea right!...quisiera yo.. I just couldn't beleive that  a women with so much hair was now standing in the mirror with thinned out, weak tresses.  I started to remember when I was una ni~a and I had sooo much hair that washing it took about a half an hour and detangling was another story.  Toda mi vida, all my life my mom took care of my hair and maintain it healthy and full.  Until the relaxer days kicked in. Even though it  seemed she was doing a good job in the long run it backed fired.  I was never taught how to take care of my natural hair.  How to maintain it and keep it healthy.  It was always maintained as a relaxed hair with products that I now know can be used for Natural hair. 

I have been 5mths in transition and going on 2 mths Natural and O!M!G!..I thought I was going to have to cut my hair off...I did not know what in the world I was doing. Its seemed like I was doing everything right but wrong.  I was doing the weekly protein treatments and pree poos and Co washes but my hair seemed dry and brittle and only growing from the bottom up.  Que bochinche! but I kept on.  I made a semi- chop where I just kind of even out my hair as much as I could and it seemed to help somewhat.  Acho men! Growing my Natural hair is hard but I started to treat it like one of my kids.  When I started to homeschool my daughter getting to her was like hollering at a wall to get out of my way! not realizing that there was a doorway to the side and I can get through it.  So I started to find the door way to my hair and I believe I have found it.   I started to stick to what I know.  Piensalo! Think about it.  Going Natuaral means that you have to work on getting your hair to like and know you and for you to like and know it!  Not everyone starts a friendship close you have to get to know each other and learn each other.  You find out that you may have mucho in common and also mucho not so in common. Pero! But you work together and and combine the good with the bad and work it out. So that is what me and my hair have done.

We are not yet best friends but we like each other now and well I'm learning her and she is learning me! So take your time and work your freindship out...love affairs don't just happen over night they take some months to flirt first so FLIRT... COQUETEA!
