I have been going to this beautician for about 1 year, and am so happy with the full  cap weaves.  My natural hair is now past shoulder length,  with  a tight curl pattern.  The only problem i have with it is styling.   I like the low maintenance of wearing weaves because of my sports activities, i am extremely athletic.
my boyfriend likes my spiral perm weave style, like most guys.  He also knows i have natural shoulder-length hair, yet he wants me to have it permed,  flat-ironed,  or blow-dry styled...the very same styles i can wear with a weave cap.  He says he wants to "run his fingers through it".  Well, ladies to be honest about my boyfriend, he's pale, fat and bald, which means i don't  have sh*t to run my fingers through, so why is he sweating my head?
 
My ex-beautician (thank gawd I left her)  flat ironed and permed my natural hair, long time ago. Even though i kept up a good regime, it started breaking off.  My boyfriend saw the breakage and understood then..now, here we are a year later, and he's starting up again..  Sometimes, he'll even crack jokes about it "looking good, but who's hair is that?" 
 
which brings up another topic...I take the time out to take care of myself, my looks, hair, education, skin and body.  I wonder sometimes when i am approached by guys who obviously don't do likewise - where do they get off?

Fear based no doubt. He fears losing you and wants to smush all your self esteem until he's confident that you have no confidence.

You know what girl straight up.. he's rude, and he needs to get over himself and this obsession of his.. If this is a REAL problem for him, then he can get to steppin'.. Otherwise if he really loves you and you look good, then who cares how it happened???
 
My husband could care LESS about what I do to my hair.. He recognizes that it's MY head, and as long as his wife looks good, then it's ALL GOOD.. Funny thing is the same men who are hung up on this are the SAME ones who would have NO PROBLEM with surgically enhanced boobs.. He needs to get over it..
