I decided to stop relaxing my hair in May 2005. Did the BC in November '05. It started out pretty rough at first, and I went back and forth wanting to get a relaxer whenever frustration set in. Having longer hair was a crutch, I used it to cover my not-so-clear skin.

Taking away the security of hiding my face, I underwent a process of learning to accept my hair and my skin the way they were -- still working on the skin part. It's been three years and I couldn't be happier about my decision. I don't think I could ever (with a clear conscience) go back to the creamy crack.

Through this journey, I hope to learn, grow, innovate and motivate! Feel free to take a look around and see my evolution from insecure nappy to Au Naturale Chocolati! Let me know you were here by leaving a comment or signing my guestbook, and I'll be sure to return the favor!

Hair Type: 3c/4a
