Have any of you mamas did a BIG chop or just plain ol go bald? I feel like I damaged my hair too much and the texture and curls aren’t the same anymore. I hate it!

Thanks ice! You reminded me their is a natural hair beauty salon near me that I’ve always wanted to check out. I need a lot of help with my hair and it’s just not living up to it’s full potential of bouncy beautiful curls.
I did a chop in 2016. Went from shoulder length to maybe 4inch length hair. It looked so cute and healthy. I had dried ends and knots. I needed a salon help. It was probably my third time ever in a salon. They did a great job on my curly hair.
I now trim it myself as needed.
I did in December but it wasn't intentional. My hair was past my butt and i wanted it to my chest and the girl cut it to my shoulders. 🙄 my hair has never been this short in over 10 years.
Oh wow! I hope you didn’t have to pay for that. I’m sure you look amazing!
@dontspankme, tbh lmao I think I wanna keep cutting it 😹😹
@amazinglimama, lol I feel like this will be me too once I do it and love how it looks and feels!
Yep I have. I stopped relaxing for about 4-5 months then cut off my relaxed ends. That was 4 years ago & I'm thinking about doing it again for the same reasons as you.
Have you added stuff to it that’s damaged it? I feel like mine is at the point of no return.
@dontspankme I used a few products that changed their ingredients & it wasn't good for my hair any longer. I also went to a salon twice to get braids & they insisted on putting heat on my hair to make it more "manageable" to braid.
@bad_ass_barbie, wow they sound like asses and doesn’t know anything about natural hair.
I did a big chop, wow probably about 10 years ago now, and I’ve never turned back. I’ll never ever have long hair again. I love my hair short. I have a thin face and the short cuts look good on my face frame. Long hair makes me look older and more drawn out if that makes sense
It does make sense you look hot with short hair! 😘
@dontspankme, thanks lady! I love short hair! So go for it whatever u wanna do! And remember it’s only hair and it always grows back!
@ss3mom, exactly! I just hope it grows back healthy. I have a round chubby face so short long term style wouldn’t look good on me as it does you.
I cut the relaxer out my hair in January. It was super short. I couldn't even put it in a ponytail 😂
So glad I did
@lareina_kk, nice! I’ve never had relaxer in but I was tempted to buy some last week lol I’m just scared I’ll just add on to the damage.
@dontspankme you will. But its your choice. 😊
And my hair was pretty damaged. It was when I started on my curly hair journey.
I have a super round face too. I’ve bleached twice and permanent dyed last year to get the semi purple covered. My hairs a mess! I want my curls to be more defined like yours 😍
@dontspankme, the chop will help but definitely don’t relax your hair afterwards lol.
I did a big chop. I’ve always wanted to go bald but I feel like my face is too round for that.
My hair was past my butt. Before I had my baby I chopped half of it off. I had pretty bad dead ends n I have no time to fix it. It's so much easier now.
Thanks for letting me know! I can’t decide on what I wanna do yet
After a break up, I chopped it all off. Went into the restroom and just cut 12+ inches off 💇🏽♀️ pixie cut was cute
.....until I was maintaining it and put the wrong clipper length on =} ended up shaving it by accident and loved it!!
Oh no haha pixie cuts are cute! Did your hair grow back quick and healthy?
I did both lol I’m relaxed right now but the first time I shaved completely the next 2 times I just big chopped
You’re brave lol how did your hair grow out after shaving? And why did you shave did you damage it a lot like I did mine haha
@dontspankme, I shaved because I had put a bad relaxer in my hair so I had no choice lol. I just wore wigs u til it grew lol. Then I relaxed after a year then I went natural again and big chopped just cut at my natural roots then I did it a few years after that lol now I am relaxed again lol
Your curls will have more bounce once you chop it. I did not mind the shorter look. It made styling easier.
