In reply to Anthea. use new scissors or a pair specific for hair and go to town! It's easy to see the line between the two textures when your hair is wet. Otherwise, you can ask a stylist to cut it for you.

How do I cut off or trim off the relaxed hair from the natural hair I have a mix of 3c natural hair which is about 1in to 2in new growth but I haven’t completely cut off the relaxed hair. It was fairly long after being perm since I was a teenager. I’ve never seen my hair natural before now.

I transitioned to natural hair without doing the Big Chop. It wasn’t easy but I did it wearing twist outs, french braid or pony tail. One of the main reasons I transitioned is because I have eczema and had a horrible reaction to the relaxer (clearly they changed their formula).

I’ve been natural for almost 3 or 4 years and I have no plans of ever getting a relaxer again. It’s not worth it to me. I may not be the best stylist in the world but my health is more important. Also, I make my own Black Soap Shampoo. It’s worked wonders for me. Love, love, Black Soap. I enjoyed the post. 🙂

I went natural a few years ago and its the best thing I ever done! I have so much more time not having to relax and straighten my hair. Plus my hair is healthy and growing. I am trying to convince my twinsister to stop relaxing get hair. I will for sure let her read this article!

We wrote almost the same post! I love your angle though, and for sure it doesn’t have to be expensive. We need to realise it’s become big business, so of course they’d want us to spends loads of money!

I love a good natural hair post. I did the big chop many years ago ( I would say around 10 years) and never looked back. As time went on I figured out my hair rhythm and how it reacted to what products. So I know have a good thing going and my hair is thriving. Love love your tips. Wish I had this when I was transitioning!

Great post!! Product junkie beware. . . you can run up a big bill. My Niece usually has all the products for me to try and brings me samples. Now that my hair is just about gone (thanks Mom) I condition it more.
