Im african american i need to know to to transtion my hair from relaxed to all natural?

you have 2 options:

1: chop it all off and learn to take care of your hair as it grows

1: cut it every now and then letting it grow out. (which is how i'm doing it) over a period of 4 months i planned to cut a couple inches at a time. Next month is going to be the rest of my relaxed ends.

Either way you need to make sure you keep your hair moisturized. there are a wealth of websites you can go to that will help you

I get my hair straightened a lot, the best way is just let it grow out and it will be back to it's natural state. As your hair grows the new hair is coming in natural, within 6 months your hair should be in it's natural state, maybe even sooner. For me, within 6 months my straightening is completely grown out and my hair is back to it's curly state. Just have some patience and it will be back to the way you want it. It will take patience though, but it will get there.

The best thing for you to do is try braids or a sewn in weave for at least 6 months. Have it redone once every month or two. Drink plenty of water, take your vitamins and eat good proteins. You will see a stronger and more lustrous head of hair each time you undo your braids or weave. Just to let you know- you will lose some of your relaxed hair- but condition it as often as possible to keep it strong. When your hair reaches your desired length and you are ready to style it- have it washed, deep conditioned and pressed every 2-3 weeks. Keep it oiled between visits with a light hairdress! Dont get frustrated though- It will be a long process - but worth it in the long run!

you can either get your hair chopped off all at one time, or gradually get it cut off. if you choose to gradually do it, you can do rollersets, braided extensions, and different natural styles...the object of the transition phase is for you to get use to your in it's natural state %26amp; learn how to take care of it. Do not have your hair straightened constantly, some people say this helps to grow the relaxer out, when it just really causes your hair to break off because of the 2 texture differences.
