So it’s been 3 months with my hair natural and I finally have the ‘itch’ to do ‘something’ with it. I’m debating if I should do a ‘protective style’ for a week then take it out or just leave it alone and let it sprout! I LOVE LONG HAIR! But I dont’ want to get ‘addicted’ to the long hair look when my hair needs it’s growth time without the ‘pull and push’.

My daughter is always wearing protective styles and it looks adorable. My mom as well is complimented everyday! However, I’m on the fence since last year my hair falling out due to excessive use of ‘protective styling.’ I am happy however that my hair has grown its 2 inches ( i was skeptical and frustrated at my 2 and a half month mark) but then again my hair shrinkage is at its curly max so looks can be deceiving at first glance!
