K, this is my first Blog ever, in life.  So I guess I'm just supposed to talk about whatever.  Well, I came upon this website and though it was pretty informative.  I am really contimplating going natural again.  I don't feel like I am me with relaxed hair.  Though I have had a relaxer for the majority of my life, and a natural for just 2 years, I felt comfortable and ME that way.  The only reason that I gave up on my natural is because I straightened it a couple of times and then it wouldn't curl again.  At the same time I was talking to this dude, who is now my boyfriend of 2  years and he suggested that I perm it, I complied.  Damnit, why did I do that, now I can't talk myself into going back.  I went drastic last time and cut off all of my hair now I don't think I can get the balls to do it again.  Plus I am working now, at the time I was in college and didn't care.  Now I gotta conform to corporate America, "the man."  I live in the suburb of Kansas City, Kansas and people do not like, "different" here.
