OMGEEE!! I am so proud of myself for making it this far during my transition period. To be honest I never thought I will make it this far. What really made me stick to my decision was the people that didn't believe i will go through the whole natural hair journey. I can truly say I had made the best decision for my hair. Before I started my hair journey my hair was so damaged and thin and I hated it. This journey has its up's and down's but I'm learning and loving it. I made it official that I'm doing my bc next month and I'm super excited!!! I'm just at the point I'm just tired of blending these two textures. I already fell in love with my natural hair, I love how thick and soft it is. I don't know what catergory it falls in but whatever it is I know I will love it because its the texture and pattern God had gave me and he never makes any mistakes. I just wish some of my family saw how beautiful our natural hair is. My oldest sisters is always saying your hair isn't going to be curly and just going to be nappy and all that mumbo jumbo. I just tend to block her negative comments out. Because whether its nappy or curly or whatever I will love it either way. If I could say what I've learned during this journey is to love who I am from head to toe, and don't listen to anyone who has anything negative to say. Although I have some of my family that makes jokes about it most of them are very supportive. Like my brothers LaMont and Carrington don't really care except one, my brother Carrington was like he can't imagine me with short hair but other than that he really supports my journey. It feels good to know I have a support system. I might have inspired my cousin to go natural so I'm really excited about that as well. Well let me see how my family reacts to my new hair next month. I promise to post before and after pics
