Now, I'm not about to "justify" why I relax my hair. But in response to the question, I do it for convience, versatility, and most importantly BECAUSE I WANT TO. It's my hair and I'll do what I want with it. I know that my hair will look good naturally, but my hair looks TIGHT in the silky straight hairstyle I've got now.
I've seen a lot of women on this board and not just for this question "justify" what they choose to do. More specifically those who went natural. I don't believe that anyone-natural/not natural, should have to defend their actions or QUESTION why others do what they do.
If you are truly happy with YOURSELF and your decisions then what others say to you shouldn't bother you-no need in "justifying" yourself. Moreover, if you do something that someone else doesn't do, why worry about what they are doing, feeling, or acting and then try to inform them of what they are doing so that they change their perspective? We are all educated (hopefully) people here and we EACH know what we are doing. If it isn't YOUR hair then don't be concerned.
