This is a topic that I have dealt with like many others. From the YouTubers that sport their endorsements to the natural in the office, at one time or another the subject of making peace with one’s natural hair’s texture, porosity, or density becomes a matter of discord for the wearer!

Some natural wearers have come to such a dissatisfication with their hair until it drives them to either go back to the creamy crack or chop off their locks!

If you are like me, I have at least three textures 3b/3c/4 and my hair is fine. So, when I do a wash and go, the first day my hair looks like it has been plastered to my head and several days later my 3c areas have frizzed to a point of an afro!

However, I have one coworker from the time she went natural loved the wildness of her natural hair and sought not to tame it!

I have come to the realization that one must come to peace with the hair that grows from their scalp in order to continue to walk in the freedom of the Big Chop!

You know, when you finally decided to release yourself from the process of transitioning from relaxed hair to natural! For me, it was the most freeing experience, for which I could control. So much so for others that they continue to Big Chop on a regular basis!

Have I come to peace with my hair?…Naw, but I have come to peace that this is what grows out of my scalp and to have peace I must embrace it’s natural expression!
