Soror So True,
I am a Happy, Nappy, Twist Soror, who will not give up this style for anything! Having been where you are and beyond, I decided to wear my hair in twist a year ago.
I let about 1 1/2 inch of new growth appear and then I had my stylist cut the relaxed portion of my hair.
I use a product called lock chocolate that is availble on the web (www.lockchocolate.com) to twist my hair. for a more funkier, liberated look I let me twists out for a couple of days and wear a curly afro ... I can't tell you how many compliments i have recieved. (and yes i work in the corporate world with top execs) I go to the hairdresser less now (only for a conditioner and cut) as I am able to do my own hair .... talk about freedom! and if i so choose i can wash, blow-dry my hair and use a flat iron for the "relaxed" look ...
I have some books at home that I can recommend you read ... e-mail me and I'll share them w/ you.
