My Fear About Going Natural

Honestly, my only fear about going natural (again) is my love for long hair. My fustration with shrinkage, and waiting for my hair to get where I wanted it to be (length wise) is what made me run back to relaxing the first time around. So I'm condsidering maybe transitioning for and extra 6 months for a total 18 months. But I can see myself getting fustrated with the two textures and just wanting to chop the relaxed ends off. I guess I'll just have to see how I feel as I go along. I definitly wont be chopping until I have a solid 6 inches though.
