instead of getting a relaxer, I’m trying to convince her to let me get a texturizer instead. I already know the results from when I relax—lots of breakge—

I hate that she’s not being supportive right now.

I think maybe you should put braids in your hair and let it grow out. As it grows just see what she’s says but keeping getting your braids redone and let your natural hair grow out. There are TONS of sources i can point you to so that you can convince her.
