Buzz to Chin Length

[Bat]

Hello all!

As I had predicted, I miss my curls & I am growing my hair out. I've been letting myself enjoy short hair & low maintenance care for about 8 months. In November, I found out about an upcoming event I'd need a natural hair colour for & wound up deciding to just match my roots & call that the last dye I could do on that hair. Let it grow for a couple of months, & at the beginning of February, I buzzed the whole thing to 1" to get rid of all the bleached hair & start over.

I really want to see my curls at their full potential & that means staying away from bleach for a bit. I'm aiming to leave it alone until August & then evaluate how I'm feeling. I figure by then it should be long enough to wear curly & it'll be easier to avoid overlap if I do go back to bleaching. Though I'm really hoping I can come to terms with not dyeing enough to keep my natural colour. Not being stressed about hair colour or whether I'm going to fry my hair again sounds so nice right now. But I know myself, so we'll see how this all goes!

Welcome! I buzzed all my hair off in February too to try natural which isn't my strong suit since I think my natural hair is ugly

Solgave, your pixie is so cute and so is the color of your hair!! I'm excited to watch your hair journey on here. It will be challenging but you have good company to help you along the way!

Asrai, you can do it!! I was basically in the same boat as you a little over a year ago. Now I have a curly mullet haha. You can totally get through it! You have our support

I tried the Nioxin System 2 for a few days. I don't like it. The shampoo alone made my scalp itchy and my hair looked oily again by morning. I do like the little bottle of thickening stuff though. I won't use it every day but it does fake a good thickness look. So at least there's that. I'm going to donate the shampoo and conditioner, maybe it'll work for someone else.

That's a shame it didn't work for you
