My name is Jasmine! I'm from Richmond, Va. I'm 9 1/2 months post relaxer...8/25/11.

I'm going natural because I was always envious of curly hair and didn't realize mine could be curly too if I gave up the creamy crack

My name is Latria, I am from Dothan Alabama and have been transtioning on the 14 of June 15 months. I went natural b/c I wanted to learn how to take care of my daughter hair. Stop being burnt by creamy crack. Since I have been on this journey I have learned so many more reasons. But I won't write a book.

Hey yall! I'm Alexis. I'm from the Shreveport, Louisiana area. I'm 15 months into my transition. I went natural because I was sick of chemical burns and breakage and I realized I don't need a relaxer. Best decision I ever made!

Haha. Small world. Ashlie, Enterprise,AL Last relaxer 8/10/2011. I was tired of the burns, breakage, not reaching the desired length, I never understand why everyone else's natural hair is fine but mine will cause a stir. Not a Natural militant I feel its just hair for the most part. But I do smile when I see other naturals.

I am Alisha. I am from mobile,al. Been transitioning since 12-3-11. I just hit six months post. So far breakage has not been the enemy which makes me happy because I have mbl hair and don't plan on bc'ing until at least month 18.
