I'm natural again because during every 16-20 week relaxer stretch I'd get really pissed off that I had to deal with two textures. Add $100+ for touch ups for 'long' hair and I just threw in the towel. My last relaxer was February 2011. I planned on transitioning until I had enough hair to put in a puff, but since I was having significant breakage in the front I decided to just get the BC over with.
