I must say, I still happy with my decision, and had a few mixed emotions. My mom wanted to see a pic of me when my hair was long, and it brought mixed emotions. My niece whom is 14 got upset when she found out what happened, and was literally in tears. Having this sort of feedback almost make me want to disappear and hide behind something artifiical. Husband has came around more than I thought and actually told me that he told a friend of his. He expressed that he thought I would look weird but it actually looks fine My mom is actually ok also, she said she is fine with it because she know how fast it will grow.. I am not sure if any of u sorta went through the blues a little bit. No one knows what I am talking about but you guys that actually went through the same process. I guess I just need to vent a little because I am already sick of hearing friends and family saying things about the old me and not accepting the new me. I will say my kiddos are realy supportive. My son looked at me like I was weird when he first saw me, but hey I even think he likes it.

Re: ytiznatural
Congrats on your BC sis. Welcome to the curly side lol I know everyone has an opinion about everything but some people should just keep it to themselves. The most important opinion is your own followed by your husband. If you love it, that's all that matters.
Re: ytiznatural
I sort of went through this when I BC'd in December. My Mom just didn't seem to think that I would be able to care for my hair because she was always giving me suggestions of how to style my hair as if it wasn't already DONE!! She also seems extremely surprised that my hair is soft. Every time she touches it she comments on how soft it is as if it's supposed to be some dry, brittle, tangled, mess! Hopefully I'm shaking her perception of natural hair slowly but surely
I like that you changed your user name and from the avatar you look beautiful!!!!

Hey sis!! Nice to see you again!! When I went natural the people I thought would be cool with it weren't and the ones I thought it wouldn't be cool with it were.
Then I decided like in most things in my life I made my decision based on what I believe is best for me and if you don't like it so what.
The more confident I am with it and love myself and hair the more people will like and respect you and your decisions about your hair.
It will get better don't let it get you down. We are here for you.
Smooches and Hugs and welcome to the Curly Side (as AL stated)
