So transitioning from relaxed to natural hair is probably going to be super hard, especially in the beginning. But that's because you're used to years of styling and caring for a completely different texture, and you have to learn how to do a texture you haven't had to maintain in a long time—if ever. A tough transition doesn't mean that "going natural" isn't for you. Experiment with different products, styles, and haircare methods in the first few months. You'll soon find your groove and it'll all be easy peasy.

Be patient.

Be patient.

If you big chopped, you've probably asked, "How long will it take to grow back?" As long as you properly take care of your hair—shampoo, condition, moisturize, and wrap at night—it will grow back. Just relax and enjoy the experience. If you want, do a protective style—like box braids or a sew-in—to lessen the shock. Protective styles are also a great way to avoid blending your natural and relaxed hair if you didn't big chop. Whatever you do, don't give up, and don't straighten your new growth with excessive heat because you can damage your natural curl pattern.
