Yay!! It's so thick, but your hair has always been thick. I remember my hair feeling rough after I first cut it off, there may be something to the "scab hair" thing. I do however believe that it also may be that people are not used to the feel of their natural texture. As my hair grew out I learned the products that it likes and doesn't like and saw changes and softness afterward. I pretty much know how my hair works at this point. It's all a process. Blessings on your journey. ❤️
Thanks so much for the encouragement Brittney. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for what works and what doesn't so that I can get a good routine going💕
Awwww thank you so much Shanelle. Trust me, I never in a million YEARS thought I would go natural, but here I am. I relaxed my hair FAITHFULLY, so I know if I can do it, so can you (if you decide to do it)❤❤
Aww 🥰 you see how quick that was yess!…too cute!…look at Omari and EJ so handsome!…I died mine too in the beginning to hide the brown color of my hair because black just looks more juicy lol!..the brown in my hair made it appear to be dry looking when it wasn’t!
Sis enjoy the journey. My last relaxer was April 2019. I big chopped May 2020. I was neck length. I just did a blow out and silk press for my bday and I am now full APL. Natural hair is so versatile and contrary to popular belief....much easier to maintain. I loved every stage of milestones of growth. Wishing you the best!
Yeah..I think the jet black color in your hair would look cute.👍🏾 Worth a try. The responses to your boys and your dad was hilarious!😂 typical dad reaction from your father😂
This was a great wash day. Your hair is growing well and you have some great length. There reactions is priceless 🤗 A Black rinse would be nice. I keep my hair black🖤🖤🖤 Have a Blessed Week and Much Love ❤ 🤗🙏❤
Thank you so much love! You are always so encouraging. And yes, I believe I will put some black color to boost the look and richness of my hair. I hope you and your family are having a great weekend❤
I will watch every video after your previous video when u did your big chop. I believe your hair will flourish and it’ll make you happy about your new look❤️ I’m 3 years in my natural hair journey and imma keep watching you because I love it here❤️❤️
U beta rock that twa! I think it's cute on you. & I know you'll be hooking it up in different styles as time goes by. I'm loving it how alot of our culture is going natural & enbrancing our natural texture. I transitionied 10mths. & I felt JUST like you after you took your twist down. I had some box braids I had just taken out at 10mths& my stuff was SUPER matted like you were saying yours was. My goal too, was 12mths but I said forget that. I don't have to keep dealing with these 2 textures if I don't won't to lol. I think we both did good by going the time length we did. I have a fro and It has grown out more since I chopped. The beginning of Feb 2021 will be 2yrs for me being natural. ,& I'm still loving the journey
Oh wow that's awesome that you have been on your natural hair journey 2yrs. Yass my hair let me know that enough was enough with the matting. Its been so much better and easier since the big chop🙌🏾
Hi Sparkle yes I see where you had a little straight ends left as you do your hair you can continue to cut them. I must say you did a great cut on your hair. You can definitely see the coils when twisting. The headband with your hair back look nice too.👍
Absolutely gorgeous job! It looks even and perfect to me! :) And this is super inspiring, since I just big chopped last night (experienced a few years of depression and ignoring my hair to the point where it was irredeemably tangled/matted, so due to how much of it was still the damaged/permed hair, I was happy to finally chop it off - I've never seen my hair this short either, but am loving the freedom of it already). Can't wait to experience your journey with you!
I am going on 2 months post relaxer and this new growth is already stressful but I am in it for the natural journey. This will be my 4x going natural and this time will be my last time.
A tangle teezer brush on Amazon became my best friend. I realized that even wide tooth combs were not cutting it for me to detangle and I just hopped on Amazon because my daughter broke my Denman brush. Gameeee changer that brush. So better than a Denman and detangles hair like a dream, butterrrr. Even ladies with kids should get one. Kids will thank u.
I’ve been following you for a long time when your hair was down your back from when you cut it before and it grew back you have growing hands now your hair is going to grow so much if you want your curls to pop do the Mayo avocado hair mask keep being you your beautiful and it’s just hair hope the kids are doing well omg they got so big 🤗💜💜💜💜
Aww thank you so much Riz. It's encouraging to know that there are ppl who still follow me from back in the day. Thanks for the recommendation, and yass they're growing like weeds 🌱
Hey girl! I was just wondering if we were going to see you before the holiday and here you are. I think a jet black rinse will look nice. I used to rinse my hair bc it had a lot of brown to it. I didn't realize the relaxer was causing that. Your dad tripped me out when he said he didn't know about your hair bc you be wearing them wigs and he thought thats what was going on lol🤣. I hope you and the boys and CJ have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Heyy girl. Yass I'm back, good to see you as well. I agree with the black rinse. I feel it would look more lush and rich. Lol my dad doesn't pay my hairstyles any mind anymore lol. And thank you. I hope you and your family have happy holidays as well 💜
I just went natural as well my hair is about neck length, and I still have a ton of relaxed ends but I’m proud of how far I've come. (I transitioned for 6-7 months I think)
The scab hair thing is real. Your hair will grow in silkier, regardless of curl pattern. You wil soon want/need to get a professional cut. Even though you big chopped, the ends should be taken off more. This will help with seeing your curl pattern a bit more a nd looking more moisturized. I know you're happy for a short wash day!!!!
I big chop like two or three years ago! Its on my channel...lol but I think I need to do it again. I need to get back consistent posting videos....I suggest buying a sponge from the beauty supply...with holes in it to style...love that look!!
Your hair is so thick and pretty! I would let it grow out like Foxy Brown. Remember the movie from the 70s? You may be too young. I was obsessed with her look.
Came back to say that I shaved my head a month and a half ago and went natural! Some of my hair is growing back out of my scalp straight which I believe is scab hair. I had a relaxer since I was 13 and I’m 32 now 😫
Your hair is cute. I’ll be natural in a year next month sometime I get discouraged about my hair but I’m beginning to love my hair I have more thickness than length I rather for it to be thick than thin my hair hair different curl patterns. If u every get in what type of curl pattern u have look it up on RUclips.

@@SW33TSPARKL3 so happy to hear that. & yeah, it makes it a whole lot more easier dealing with just 1 texture instead of 2.

Wow that's awesome. You are doing very well❤❤
It looks nice, can’t wait for more styles.
Thanks Ashley 💜
Love that this video is with hair just like mine-- tight kinky coily-- love TWA-- and you can finger coil and get great definition too!!
Thank you sooo much. I'm soo excited to try finger coils next. Thanks for commenting❤
I'm looking forward to the styles. I just did the big chop at home but I'm borderline OCD about my hair, so I went to a barber to even it out.
Thanks hun! And congrats on your big chop 😇
I’m lovin it Sparkle ✨. It really looks good on you!!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.✨💕
Thank you Sharon! Happy Holidays to you and your family🌟🌟
Looks cute it's gonna grow so fast without your relaxed ends!!! Worry not gurl
Thanks boo! You are sooo right ✅️
@@SW33TSPARKL3 trust the process do a porosity test. Relaxed is normally high and natural is normally low!!
@@SW33TSPARKL3 if u want your curls to really pop. And overnight deep condition is not good. U only need 15 with heat. And u will see ur curls 🤔
Your hair looks absolutely beautiful!!
Thank you so much❤
Congratulations on your new journey!
Thank you ❤️
The boys are so big!!!
Yassss🤯😩😇
It's very cute, you carry it well. If you lay your silk scarf over your hair before patting it, it will help it have a more uniform and round shape. 💜
Awesome idea 💡 thank you Kalisha💕
I love it! It’s very cute 🥰
Thanks Mika❤
The scab hair thing is real. Your hair will grow in silkier, regardless of curl pattern. You wil soon want/need to get a professional cut.

thankssss for the tips and i love quicker wash days with shorter hair at the moment😇
I loved big chopping. So liberating.
Yass, it really is❤

Have you ever tried the Swirly Curly snappee hair ties?
I've never heard of them. I'll have to look into it. Do you have a link?

I have heard a close cut or short cut Afro is considered a protective hair style!!!
wow..i never thought of that 🤔
Too cute ❤️
thankssss 😇
Hello, what is the shampoo you used?
Hey I'm using the African Pride Olive Miracle 2 In 1 Shampoo & Conditioner amzn.to/3xw9Hvl
It's around $3 at walmart, much cheaper than amazon.
😂😂😂Did he ask were you going through a break up? 😆
lol, he was asking me was it breaking off (before I cut it)
WHAT, YOU CHOPPED IT?
Yasssss❤
I think you used try some finger coils
good idea 💡
