This list is for Black women (and men) who have made the decision to stop altering the natural structure of their hair, either through heat or chemicals. You may introduce any subject related to natural hair that you wish, but the main focus of this group is to share ideas and tips on how to make the transition to, and maintain natural hair. Please feel free to jump right in and share your hair stories. You are not alone!

There have been a few posters on this list who've raved about Miss Jessie's products and I also got a big thumbs up from a coworker. So I've been poking around
I've never been told personally that a relaxer is needed to braid hair, but my sister has. I'm not sure if it was merely a suggestion or a requirement though.
