IA with DB…I realize that many naturals do it and still remain 'natural' however, the hair has been chemically transformed:cuticle stripped, chemicals inserted to replace the melanin and bonds broken-resulting in a straighter texture usually. So….it's kind of like walking in the rain. Some may be sort of wet, but overall you're wet.

Nevertheless, it's not that deep to me either. when I see naturals with color, I still consider them a natural who happens to have color, but being a natural or not is not a point of discussion for me either. I'm strictly thinking in terms of a chemical relaxer when I think of 'natural'.
