I know this isn't a new topic. It's not a new argument, however, I went on a slight rant on twitter yesterday expressing my thoughts on the natural versus relaxed debate. It began with @MorenaBarbee told me that someone commented on someones YouTube makeup tutorial and said they liked her but would like her better if she wore her hair natural like her...*insert scrunched up face*. I'm not sure what the state of her hair has to do with her abilities to apply makeup, but whatever.
- If you wear your hair natural it doesn't make you better than me. It is simply a choice that you made.
- If you wear your hair natural it doesn't mean that you spend any less time on your hair or that it's any easier to do.
- Healthy hair practices are healthy hair practices. Whether your hair is long or short, relaxed or natural, you still need to take care of it. Regular trims, conditioning, and stay away from as much heat as you can.
- STOP WORRYING ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE DOING WITH THEIR HAIR!
Should I ever decide to go natural and release myself of all chemicals (which I doubt I ever will) I will do the same things I have always done. Not a lot of heat. Wrapping my hair up so I don't get split ends and deep conditioning my hair.
I've had my hair long, I've had it super short, I've tracked it up. Who cares, it's my hair. Stop judging people because of their personal preference. BITCH YOU WASN'T WITH ME SITTING IN THE SALON! *Rick Ross voice* So why are you worried about what I'm doing with my hair? So what if my hair was already long, and I chopped it off because I wanted to, and then decided to grow it back and while it's growing back get a weave. It's mine, I have the receipt. Get out of my wallet and my scalp. Please and thanks.

Truth be told, natural ain't for everyone. In fact, it's only for 20% in my option. Some of it looks horrible. Some looks awesome. A lot of people I see go natural just forget about their hair lookin all matted and just nasty. That's not what natural is..................................................
