[kristisimone]

I just did my big chop YESTERDAY. I can not believe how much I love it. Our hair is the same length (as in this video) so I can't wait to check out the rest of your vids.

[KalimbaJakenjuwha]

I'm already natural, but I'm planning on cutting my hair again (I love short hair) I want my hair this length, how long was this? Also, I love you makeup here, it looks so natural. :)

I remember when I first cut my hair, people (two in particular) were kinda mad asking Why you cut your hair? You had some long prrrrrrrretty hair!! Mind you, these comments are recent and I haven't had long hair in about 10 years. lmao.

[fullcirclekk]

no perm for six months then permed it now wanting to go natural! ur video shows an awesome natural style...I love it.....

[2ndPlanet4romSun]

Cute dog!! I love the hair!!!

[karrotznpeaz]

im loving your hair!!!!

[comonlaflo]

you make me sick:) LOL.. your hair is so pretty,

[ToriNikeia]

Hey, im thinking about going natural soon. And I want to know... After the cut did you add water to your hair and it curled up? And what's that on your lips? It looks nice yet natural... Your beautiful!

[DamnMANNY]

That's always the suprise..I went natural and i didn't even know how curly mines was compared to my permed which looked nappy as fck

[sunnyashers]

I loved 3:17. "thank you to the people who had the accident" your energy, confidence, and attitude. Definitely feeling a little more inspired to do my big CHOP! I'm getting impatient lol, but I want a little bit of legnth :) I'm subbing!

[shenikam4]

u look beautiful with short hair!

[JPhae2008]

would you suggest going to a barber or a hair stylist with about 5months of new gowth

[AlexandraBond]

@JPhae2008 I went to a stylist because I didn't want to go to the barber and they shape me up and line me up... I didn't want that... I just wanted it even all over...

[newatl2010]

I just did the big chop two weeks ago...so I'm doing the same thing as you, girl!! :)

[AlexandraBond]

@newatl2010 YAY!!!!

[BostonsBestLady]

I know this video is a bit old, but: I've been going back and forth on whether or not I should do the "BC!" I've got to say--- youre video just gave me the push! You look amazing! Hair, makeup, and all... I kept trying to find pix/videos of people who did the BC, so that my boyfriend could understand that you can still be feminine w/ it... and yours was confirmation. THANK YOU!!

[AlexandraBond]

@BostonsBestLady Awwwwwwwwu are so welcome. U are gorgeous lady....

[robib2]

Love it! Which products do you use ?

[AlexandraBond]

@robib2 I use Curls products faithfully!

[knotty1atl]

too cute...

[prettyinpink97]

I agree on this...Im going to BC this weekend...its been 3 months for me and Im tired of doing bantu knots and I sik of the dang gone shedding

[AlexandraBond]

@prettyinpink97 How did it go?

[prettyinpink97]

@AlexandraBond i big chopped last year in november so far it has grown a lot i think my hair is going through a no growth phase cause its not really doing anything but im happy i did :)

[TheCanaryDiamond]

You're BC looks great! I know this is over a year ago, but how long did u transition when u did it?

[AlexandraBond]

@TheCanaryDiamond I think like 3 months. But he cut off so much.

[MickiNRooney]

Your hair is FLY!!! I love it.

[MissTiaBabii]

Very Beautiful!!! :)

[Uniqu3neverway]

LOVE it Girl... Ur beautiful !!!..

[DLockeSMASH]

lmao, this is like the third Natural Hair video that i've seen... that looked and put their camer on their dog! lmao,!

[AlexandraBond]

@DLockeSMASH Us natural women love our doggies.

[coolbeens21]

@AlexandraBond

yes we do! XD

[lBoogie1208]

What did you put in your hair to give it the little curls? I love it and am doing the BC this tuesday

[AlexandraBond]

@lBoogie1208 That's my natural hair texture.. But I think I had mousse in it.

[SBhere201]

ALthough I am a tad nervous because it's something new and different (normal to feel that way) the excitement of it all is overwhelming but in a good sense. Maybe I'll do a youtube video after Friday...lol

[AlexandraBond]

@SBhere201 yes please do....

[SBhere201]

Absolutely fabulous....confidence that goes right along with the new do. I'm where you were, no patience for the transition (waiting, cornrows, braid out) I'm so over it so I'll scheduled for my big chop on Friday. Question.... Did you go to a salon that caters to natural hair only, barbershop or a regular salon. You're wearing that cut! Congratulations!

[AlexandraBond]

@SBhere201 Thank you sweetie... I went to to a salon that just does hair! LOL, but I was referred to my stylist by a lady who was natural and he chopped her hair off...

[twinkleye33]

o.m.g!!! i have exactly your hair (when permed) it is long and thick. and i was gonna do the big shop twice but the creamy crack im hooked and im a fan of long hair. i hate short hair. my three other sisters transitioned but never did the "bc" and how have pretty gorgeous fluff curls. ;) your hair is gorgeous now though. its funny though bc you look really great like basically with no hair ;) and im so terrified of that idea. wat should i do? i like my hair now but curious with curls? ahhh!!

[AlexandraBond]

@twinkleye33 LOL, you are so sweet... I say you leave that creamy crack alone... If you don't like short hair, don't BC... just trim as you go... Thanks for the tips on the other videos too... You know what you talkin about...

[twinkleye33]

@AlexandraBond thank you!!!!

[MiracleinStars]

OMG!!! Girl with eyebrows as sick as urs you could scalp ur head and still look good. BTW I love LOVE your hair!!! Gorgeous!

[Deidre83]

how long did you transition before chopping?

[AlexandraBond]

@Deidre83 Good question... About 3 months. My new growth was longer than what was shown, but i let my stylist even and shape me up...

[Wonderfully90]

I really like it... It fits you. :)

[MsUnknownperson123]

I just did my BC on Sunday!! I'm so geeked...yours is super cute! I'm sure it grew by now...peace and blessings!

[AlexandraBond]

@MsUnknownperson123 check out my newer videos... it has been growin...

[nicegurl35]

its cute

[coolperson123456789f]

did cutting your hair affect your job and not trying to be rude b/c I want to go natural  but I feel it would affect my job

[AlexandraBond]

@coolperson123456789f Good Question... No it did not, but partly because my job as a makeup artist at MAC, we are free to express ourselves in whatever way we want... Which is why I love working there. But I will say that it can be frowned upon, but lately it is becoming more accepted...

[Sincereangel1520]

I love your big chop you look great! I

[AlexandraBond]

@Sincereangel1520 THANKS!!!

[stacc89]

i love ur hair this is wat im lookin for i was tryna explaion it to my friends sooooo how would i describe this hairstyle to my hair dresser!!! how do u get those cute curls can i use a product to get them if my hair is not curly like that!!!

[AlexandraBond]

@stacc89 My hair is naturally curly so that's just how my hair turns out, so I am not sure how yours will turn out or what hair you have, or even what may work for you... Just start out with one product and see what works...

[mrsdavid28]

ok i am officially hooked on the natural.....u look so pretty i have been on here all day lookn at all you brave souls but u look good.....i love being black now i am gonna love being natural and black

[AlexandraBond]

@mrsdavid28 YAY!!!!!!

[rebarenee7]

Nice texture. I don't know if this is your youtube name but I am a Bond (007), if you are nice to meet you. I am working on my video wish I had started last year when I did the big chop. Thanks for the video info. My children told me that I look like a boy. lol now that it has grown, I guess I look like a woman again because I have'nt heard that comment lately.

[AlexandraBond]

@rebarenee7 My maiden name is Bond, and that I will always be... lol. But I am sure you look fine, it just takes some getting use to...

[JOHNDIIJANE]

so far everyone that i know, and everyone that has gone natural looks amazing with their new look. [including you] lol.

all these videos i see make me moree and moreee excited to do the BC.

...&& cute puppy!

[AlexandraBond]

@JOHNDIIJANE thank you... yeah, Baya is reallly like a child...

[25shocka]

It looks good on you but I'm still shock that you cut all that pretty, long healthy looking hair off, makes me wanna cry...I heard the saying, "Everytime a black woman cut their hair, somewhere a little black girls cries"..lol

[AlexandraBond]

@25shocka it will be back before you know it, and if now... OH well, it's just hair... you know? I aint hear nobody cry when I cut it... lol

[scwill]

@AlexandraBond Your hair looks great! I made my BC in Nov 2009.

[pcole89]

you hair is very pretty...beautiful curls

[luv2trump]

@tammy1ize People are paying alot of money to get lucious lips like hers, that was not a nice comment young lady, shame on you

[AlexandraBond]

@luv2trump lol, thanks boo... I don't pay ignorant comments no mind... I do love my lips as well...lol

[Jamina826]

my husband absolutely HATED that i cut off all of my hair. It's funny cuz everyone else adored it.....but him. i am now 6 months out from doing my BC...and now he's finally getting used to it...WHATEVER!! anyways love ur hair and have a wonderful day!!!!!

[wishywashygirl19]

Its really pretty what did u put in it.

[tkokolt]

You hair looks great!

[prettyproblem16]

you look like a sexy androgenous boy

its very cute i hope if i cut my hair it look as good as yours

[AlexandraBond]

@prettyproblem16 Uhhh, thank you I guess....

[therapy3471]

@AlexandraBond You look very womanly to me lol. Extremely cute!

[AlexandraBond]

@therapy3471 LOL, I thought so too...

[antonetteg3123]

Do you have any products in your hair on this video?

[AlexandraBond]

@antonetteg3123 yeah, I think just some setting lotion... I hadn't gotten hip to the products by the time I did this video...

[pceluvNdorkyness]

OMG I wish I could do that!! You look amazing! Hey Leos in the house!

[AlexandraBond]

@pceluvNdorkyness You wish you could do what? Cut your hair off??? You can, are you going natural?

[pceluvNdorkyness]

@AlexandraBond Yes, I am going natural! I wish I could do the BC! I just feel my face isn't for it!

[AlexandraBond]

@pceluvNdorkyness oh girl... just do it... lol

[pceluvNdorkyness]

@AlexandraBond LOL IDK,.but I am definitely thinking about it!

[MrMikealy]

You look nice with short hair too but the long hair was too cute on you.

[coconutandmilk]

your beautiful! :)

[AlexandraBond]

@coconutandmilk you are so sweet... Thank you so much.

[leeleesparks5]

Yeah, I made the BC and it is so liberating to NOT have hair. It is cut a little closer than I expected but I can't wait until it grows to about your length and I will probably keep that length. Thanks for checking on a sista

[AlexandraBond]

@leeleesparks5 I didn't neccesarily feel liberated, because I was pretty liberated before... but I know what you mean. Keep it growin and be patient mama... Way to go!!!

[viscute104]

YOUR PUPPY IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!! Im not a fan of short hair, BUT yours fit you just right! =) pwetty!

[AlexandraBond]

Yeah she is a cutie.. thank you.

And thanks bout the hair...

[TheRealShortyBrown]

[Kelii417]

[nikab86]

Hey Girl! Love the vid. Your hair is just like mine!!! I'm too excited. I've been looking for ladies on youtube with the same texture as mine.

Happy New Year,

Nika

[AlexandraBond]

we do have very similar hair... HAIR TWIN

[differentchick5]

im not surprised that ur hair is that curly...ur relaxed hair was gorgeousssss

like ppls relaxed hair can be diff textures

like my friend's relaxed hair always has body, is moisturized and is just nice

while mine is gross, dry, flat no body, nasty

my natural hair is suppper nappy, like when my hair grows out its like that

i WANT UR CULRLSSS

[AlexandraBond]

But that's ok, cuz you are sporting what God gave you and I am sure it is fabulous... just cuz it aint curly, don;t mean it aint... Just find some products that work for you... Mine is dry too... always has been...

[tressfreecre8tions]

Alex I LOVE your curls!!! I'm pleasantly surprised that mine is pretty curly too. *whew*

All these years I thought my hair was g-nappy and it's curly!!! Imagine that!?! But I have a new relationship with my hair and I'm amazed!!!

[AlexandraBond]

I wanna see them...

[HateMillions]

Wow how'd you get them curls cause I did my BC but I have frizz :((

[AlexandraBond]

My hair is just naturally curly... But the products you put in your hair help too...

[napitruth]

I DID MY BC ON THE SAME DAY AS YOU!!!!!!!

[AlexandraBond]

SO WE ARE BC TWINS!!!! YAY....

[Jazaebel]

QUESTION: HOW IN THE WORLD do get your curls to look like that? so defined and like...tight? lol mind is more like a fro, and i DONT like it.

[AlexandraBond]

My hair is just curly... I had no idea untill I cut it off... I mean it was always wavy and my kitchen (which I thought were beadie beads) were actually curls according to the stylist that cut my hair...

[Jazaebel]

i did mine too! lol like 2 months ago.

looks good. :)

[CoCMember]

Ahhh be BC'd the same day!!! YAY

[AlexandraBond]

YAY ANOTHER BC TWIN!!!!!

[stefuwahiscool]

Aww I love your dog!!! You should have a video dedicated to her lol! But seriously, I love your hair

[AlexandraBond]

Girl please, that dog is crazy...

[TheSoutherngirl26]

Your hair is gorgeous! I did my big chop a week ago after transitioning for only 2 months. I had some issues with my curl definition, my hair was sticking straight up in my top/middle sections. I cowashed & used other products, but its super straight. I had to go to the barbershop & cut it all off. I ended up buying a wig b/c Im still in shock that I cut it all off! its still a little straight, I just wear a wave cap. I wish I wouldve transitioned a few more months.

[AlexandraBond]

Girl, just wear it out... it will grow, but more than anything that's YOUR hair so be proud no matter what it look like....

[babygurlpink15]

OMG! u cut your beautiful hair why :O

well at least your hair cut suits ur face, it shows ur natural beauty

wow i could never do that

[amillion3147]

Looks very pretty on you!

[rjones2586]

Hey I think we went to High school together. Your hair looks amazing by the way! I've been transitioning for 4 months now and I can't wait to BC myself but girl I'm scared!!

[AlexandraBond]

Who are you then? State your name??? lol... I went to Clayton, class of '01... Don't be scared to BC, I was transitioning for 3 months...

[ExtraordinaryPurpose]

Beautiful!

[flymomrd]

Wow, what a dramatic change, and an excellent cut. This looks so much better than the straight hair on u.  Compliments all of your lovely features. Work it!

[AlexandraBond]

Thank you sweetie...

[Pfruit09]

How long did you transition?

[AlexandraBond]

Like 3 months...

[mizzthickums904]

I am loving your hair, i had bc'd on sunday, your hair looks so soft, what products do u use?

[AlexandraBond]

I don't know what the stylist put in it, some foaming mousse or something. But now I use Kinky Curly Curling Custard or Aveda Be Curly Curl Enhancer.

[chevyatl86]

I wasnt sure what I was going to do with my hair. But now I know! I love it!

[AlexandraBond]

Thanks mama

[KarissaL007]

Your hair is BEAUTIFUL

[AlexandraBond]

[tashamont]

You did what I did. I transitioned for almost a year one week away to be exact and I got inpatient and I chopped it off and I'm sooo loving it! My husband has to get over the initial shock too of me not having hair or longer hair! Hair is soooo cute!

[AlexandraBond]

See, I couldnt even wait a year...lol
