Ok so the last part of Feb I straightened my hair and I enjoyed it but I also noticed that I had very bad split ends mostly in the back and so i decided to gradually cut the ends bit by bit. So, every month I'm going to continue wearing my hair in wash n gos puffs and twist out and the last part of the month straighten my hair and trim the ends and see if this helps my hair.
******UPDATE*********
So I kept straightening and trimming my hair and it doesnt feel like I have cut too much off but my hair feels so much better. I will make sure I continue to trim my hair regularly so that I can continue to gradually cut off the rest of the split ends.
