is my hair too "nappy" to go natural?
nappy hair going natural
Well going natural is about stopping the use of chemicals and relaxers. It is the commitment of wearing, styling and caring for the way your hair grows without the help of chemicals. Its not about the texture of your hair.
Many woman have been surprised to find that once they stopped using chemical relaxers on their hair that the way their own hair was naturally was easier to manage and take care of.
Sometimes the use of chemicals and relaxers can make your hair seem unruly, dry, brittle and unmanageable but once you start using moisturizing conditioners your hair will be soft and easy to style.
there are all sorts of hair products out there so you may be able to do this just experment with what you have and make it work good luck

My friend, Kari, has the curliest hair! She is naturally a dirty blonde, but she colors her hair so that it's a lighter blonde. The coloring is why she needs to relax her hair without the chemicals. She says she HAS to keep coloring her hair.Any ideas out there?Thanks!XOXOCheeky

About three years ago my hair started falling out, and continued for about two years. It fell out in the same two sections of my head - near the hairline above my ears.
