Hi there! My name is Kaira && I am 17.
I'm Here because I'm really new to having my hair natural again, && I am in desperate need of assistance ):
Most of my life I've had very long hair && I've always been able to just brush it and go about my day. But when I was younger I had a small accident && it needed to be cut.
After that, My parents started getting my hair relaxed so it would be easier for me to deal with, but then I started playing more sports- Sweating, Mindless brushing, flat irons && pony tail holders ruined it... so I decided to go natural once again, but now my hair is so short and kinky I have no idea what to do with it anymore!
Styling && Products, everything just seems so foreign now, can anyone help me out??

There are plenty of people who experience the BC (big chop) here. It may help to learn all the acronyms we use here, so you can learn to search the site better.

It may help to find out what type of hair you have, first (3a, medium texture, coarse, etc...), that way people can help you out more.

Define what "natural" means to you. Will you use silocones? Heat style? Search your hair type's section for style ideas and products that may work for you. I hope this helps.
