Awwww...thank you everyone for the compliments. I really appreciate the good feedback on my hair.
Actually I'm going to do my texturizer retouch by myself for the very first time.
I'm going to be beeeeerry...beeeeerry careful. I just pray that I get the timing right so I have really nice curl definition without all the frizz...just a nice balance...not to thin/flat either.
To answer your question Blessedangl...this is what I think are the benefits...ladies feel free to chim in on this, but here are my thoughts.
I made the choice to texturize versus stay natural/relax my hair because of the following benefits:
- versatility (I can wear it in natural styles like twists, curly - if processes correctly, or straight)
- straightened hair with texturizer stays straight longer from what I hear
- hair is stronger with texturizer as opposed to relaxer
- easier to comb over staying natural
- softer than staying natural
- have more fullness than when relaxed
- more curl definition than when natural
- i just look better with fuller hair
- there seems to be more room for error with texturizer than relaxer in terms of damage to your hair (Because you only keep a perm in for a short time, if you happen to overlap during a retouch the worse that could happen is your hair would be less curly in that section but most likely won't break off if you're caring for it properly; with a perm on the other hand, if your hair is already straight and you overlap it will probably break off)
Okay...those are the benefits that I can think of...can anyone else think of some more that might help Blessedangl out?!?
I hope that helps!
