to all my african american mommies answer me this?

i had natural hair for a long time before and during my pregnancy, well i decided to relax it a few months ago and it didnt' take the first time. thats no usually for me having a natural for so long so i relaxed it again 2 weeks maybe shorter, anyway it didn't take again?!?!? so since then i've relaxed it 2 more times and my hair is still curly!! i remember with my daughter that the texture of my hair changed but i kept it natural the whole pregnancy. so has any of you relaxed ur hair and it did absoutley nothing for you? i'm wondering if its just me

You know I am anit-chemical..

So can't help you there...haha

NO RELAXERS!! 

I am Caucasian, but my hair didn't take the color I put in it and it bled out over the course of two months. lol There is a LITTLE bit of red in it now, but it's a completely different color than I chose for it. Pregnancy does some crazy stuff to hair!

Did you relax it yourself? Hair like yours needs to be seen by a stylist! You might wanna wait until after the baby comes.
I tried to go natural but in my 6th month it was not happening.

i know momma! it didn't work anyway!!!

maybe its cause your pregnant... i know hormones jack the hair up...

Well I'm pregnant now and I find that my hair is extra thick and I have to leave the perm on a lot longer than before I was pregnant. But I'm told that my hair will go back to my normal grade after I deliver. Maybe you should go to the salon, especially since you have had natural for so long.

I'm not african american so I can't EXACTLY help you....but I can say that after my daughter was born...my hair didn't color right. It would turn all shades except for the one I wanted LOL. Hormones change and hair changes :0/.....did you do it yourself or have a salon do it? Sorry your hair is being a pain....try an expert. I ended up paying 200 for a bad ass colorist to actually get it right....eventually my hair went back to normal.. GOOD LUCK!

Well the "white" half of me say's "no clue" and the "african american" half of me says "say what"?
lol

I just use that good ole flat iron lol...My hair has good texture...but is thick since I am mixed...But I thought you were'nt suppose to use relaxers while pregnant??

yep did it myself. i've never gotten one by beautician cause its so expensive. its never not took before so i don't get it. i think i'm just gonna get my braids back

I hear things just dont take sometimes because of the hormones(sp).
