I am scared to transition from relaxed to natural hair?

Question

i have been gettin relaxers sooo long because i had braids from ages 4 or 5 to 11-12

i am now 16 and started goin to the hair dresser at 14 no one tol me how to take care of my hair so i guess it started breaking..

my roots continue to grow but there is no new length,

im gettin the hang of taking are of my ends and such but i think if i go natural ill get hair growth faster that ill notice

im tired of takin pills and tryn this that and the other thing

i DO NOT want an afro and dont know if i can get kinky twists

i doubt it

i cant cut my hair either so im like stuck

should i jst straigten the line of demarcation(new growth)

wit heat

im soooo confused runnig out of things to do to grow my hair

i have 4a hair i think, if not 4b for sure

its a lil below my chin and covers the nape of my neck to almost the top of my spinal cord right now if that makes sense but doesnt look thick

HELP

Answer 1

all u hav 2 do is keep doin what ur doin. if u wanna transition, but no afro, j press ur hair.  also, when u press ur hair, over time it'll get easier, and ur hair will hold less curl. also, make sure u tie ur hair up at night
