do you embrace your natural hair?

[kalyboo]

Yes and no.
I've grown to like my natural hair but I still prefer to have longer hair so I wear extensions.

[FluffaWumpkins]

I was never taught that my natural hair was bad and that I shouldn't embrace it. However, I know it was easier for my mom to take care of after it was chemically processed. Today, I'm 100% natural and while I think it's harder to maintain, I don't regret my decision to go back to being natural.

[Cocomomochan]

No
I don't like my natural hair because I don't think it looks good.
When my hair is done, and when I look good, I feel more confident and more willing to try knew things.

I was never taught that my hair was ugly or needed to be changed when I was growing up. Hair can be cut and then grown out so I really don't care. I did enjoy getting highlights in my hair because my hair was always greasy, still does but I wash it less only when I need to, and the highlights faded over time. Getting my hair highlighted was great but then it got expensive and I stopped doing it. I have mostly gotten to putting it up in a high bun most of the time because living in Texas, it's very humid where I live.

Half my hair is grey and I'm only 22 so I dye mine every month or so to cover it up, but before it started going grey like crazy I left it my natural color all the time.

[The Underground Man]

My natural hair is dirty blonde and the texture is not-really-straight and frizzy sometimes. I hated the color so I dyed it and I curl/straighten it all the time and I look 100x hotter so idc

Welp sometimes, yeah

OP is still here

BAhahahaha! No. I use my hair as an escape - whenever something's bothering me, instead of dealing with it, I'd change my hair color. Plus, I rly liked unnatural colors. One girl my Senior year of highschool in my IB History class went, "My favorite part of Monday is seeing what new color your hair is!" She'd be legitimately disappointed if it hadn't changed (though she didn't know it was changing b/c I felt unstable). blaugh

They're huge. I know. I wasn't going to mess w/'em.

Example:








Not a glamour shot. I really am live steel combat trained (plus martial arts & weapons associated with those styles). My team was performing at the Detroit Institute of Arts.

I like my long black hair but it's gone a bit brown now... my hair has always been really easy to manage. If there was one thing i could change though it would be the thickness, would love more volume in it.

[Soarings]

I don't do anything with my hair, partly because i'm okay with my natural hair, and partly because I wouldn't know what to do with it if i wanted to do something anyway

[shezu]

Eh I never thought my natural hair was ugly nor bad nor do I dislike it. Neither was I told this.

I just simply think its fun to do different things with my hair because one same style for life is boring to me.

[Angstbucket Edgelord]

Lol I'm starting to. Used to be pretty fried from daily drying and highlights, SLS isn't too good for it either. I'll switch to shampoo bars once summer is over, but I'm hennaing it soon, more for the conditioning benefits than the color. Oh, and I'm growing it out FOREVER.

For now, cowashes are my best friend.

I finally went natural (after transitioning for 4 years) last Fall. It's difficult sometimes, but it's one of the best things I've ever done for myself.

[Linovariel]

I like my natural hair. It's a moderately wavy, so I keep it in layers. I hate using heat on my hair and I have like 4 different products I use to keep it soft and frizz free. I only ever straighten I cut my hair super short (barely reaches my chin short), but now that I'm growing it back out I like being able to pin-curl it.

I used to cut it so short because I have really thick hair and since I live in LA, the heat would become unbearable. It's kind of boring though, since I couldn't really style it, so I finally sucked it up and now it's finally past my shoulders.
