First off you do have to keep your hair mositurized and conditioned while in the transition. Different styles you can try are individual braids, pixies, cornrows, braid-out, twist-out, kinky twist, roller/wet setting, bantu knots, weaves, tree braids...huhmm thats all I can think of right now LOL. But I would try to use minimum heat because that can cause damage and less stress to your hair at this time as well will help in the long run. HTH
I finally decided to kick my relaxers to tha
curb. It's only been 3 weeks since my last relaxer, so I have a long
way to go. I don't want to chop off all of my relaxed hair and wear my
hair short(really short hair is not for me). Can anyone give me some
tips on how to go about transitioning my hair while retaining as much
length as possible?
Moisturize
often especially your new growth and ends, opt for low
maintenance/protective styles like buns, braidouts, twistouts, flexi
rod sets, straw sets etc...Wash/Condition your hair atleast once a week
and use less heat as possible. Trim when you feel the time is right,
the more you trim the quicker the transition will be, the less you trim
the longer it will take, but you will retain more length its up to you.
