Natural or Relaxer: Relaxer

My hair is a part of my style.  Sometimes I like to wear it straight and sometimes curly, but either way I love the versatility.  Relaxed hair gives me the ability to create the styles that I prefer without over heating my hair.  During these crazy cold days it is a must for one to wear a hat and when my hair is curly, a hat totally crushes my swag.  By the time I reach my destination and it’s time to remove my hat, I’m not as confident about my hair style, which in turn destroys my entire look.  Yet, when it is straightened, the moment I remove my hat, my hair still holds that flawless look I had before I left the house.  Being that I only relax my hair 2-3 times a year my hair is still gets curly.  By the time summer comes, my natural wet look assists my fineness rain or shine.  I am confident in my choice. It’s my hair and I’m the only one that has to deal with it.
