Default I Need Your Opinion!

Okay...So, I need y'alls honest opinin of my hair...

On the days that I just dont feel like twisting my hair at night the next morning I just put some moisturizer on it and pick it out and it 'fros out...

Well, while I am loving the style, my mother (who else?) tells me, "That style dont do nothin' for you--how long are you going to stay natural"

I dont plan on ever going back to relaxing OR heat. My hair just cannot take it!

SIGH--

So, I need some constructive critizm--Does my hair look bad/fugly LOL?? If y'all say that it does I PROMISE I will not hate your for it! I really need to know!! Please see attachment of said afro...lol the other pic is how I usually wear my hair.

I hope everyone is having a peachy day!!!

Your hair looks great! Don't let them change your mind and doubt the awesomeness of your hair girl!

I think that your hair is very cute. I see nothing wrong with it. Don't let other people's opinions get you down. This morning I thought that I was having a horrible hair day with my poofy, frizzy braid out, and a complete stranger stopped me and told me that she loved my hair. As long as you like it, that's all that matters!

You look pretty both ways... (who cares when you got such a great smile!)
But then, I'm all for variety, never really caring what others think about my hair...

I love the idea of wearing the fro. A friend of mine I go to school with is also natural, and she wears her hair in a fro/fro puff just about everyday and I love the way it looks. And like my sister told me today, it's your hair, wear it how u want!!

I think that both pictures look great.
What I found most frustrating last year when my hair was all natural and about that length was there wasn't much variation I could have when I was wearing my hair out. It was either out with a band, or out without and I think it was the shape that didn't allow much variation. I was frustrated and relaxed again.
But, don't you do it. Just stick with it.
I also like your hair in your avatar - with some of it picked to the front.

Default If you don't want your 'fro, I'll be happy to wear it

I wish I had that kind of gorgeous volume. The shape is wonderful and it really suits your face.

Your Hair is beautiful. My mom was the same way and still is at times. She would say things like "I miss that long straight pretty hair you used to have. It was your crown and glory". She kept telling me that all my hair was going to fall out if I grew my relaxer out when I first tried 5 years ago. This is my third and final time trying. It's been almost 4 months and I'm no where near bald. My hair is pretty wild looking and I love it!

She will get better with time. She just needs to get used to seeing your hair this way.
