To Chop or Not to Chop?/MT Challenge

**********UPDATE**********
Dec 08
Well I stopped using Megatek around the last week of Nov. It keeps my new growth soft and as a conditioner, great ... growth aid it was just ok for me. So back to my own mixes and I still haven't relaxed or cut yet - will update that at the end of the month or Jan 09.
------------------------------------------------------

8-10 yrs ago I was all natural and now I'm missing it. So I'm thinking about cheating my way back. No Big Chop, but the longest relaxer stretch in the history of man. :)

The plan - keep it natural until natural reaches armpit then chop. Well that's the plan we shall see - you know I'm addicted to scissors ... and the relaxer is so much easier .... hmmmmm

This shows how crazy my hair grows.

I tried to seperate the hair in 3 pieces.The right side, 2" longer than the left and the left, 1.5" longer than the middle. The right sidewould be on the black line if straight. AAAHHHHH!!! That's why I cut so often.

BTW I remembered why I'm not all natural anymore. Take so much energy & time. Neither which I can spare since I've become a full time family caretaker. Sorry folks think I'll be back to Mr. Optimum in just a minute :(

    I'm with Sandydee on this one.

    I'm about where you are in length when I blowdry (I have yet to get the nerve up to flat iron my wig), but unless I'm trying something different with my hair it doesn't take me long do daily. If you manage to make it to natural this time, maybe you can find time-saving alternatives or products that minimize time.

    If you don't make it, that's okay too!

    You're right now that have the 2 textures I have to find/create products that will work with both.

    Being natural is not for everyone. It's good to do whatever you feel works for you. I'm sure your hair would look great either way:)

    I love the look of natural and thickness is insane but life changes and I just couldn't keep it healthy natural.
