The picture of my hair that I uploaded is how it looked liked in January 2007 from going it out ever since December of 2005. In May of this year I got the buzz cut because I went through that stage where I didn't like how my hair looked, but I regret ever cutting it. Now do you think my hair will grow out to be the same way like the last time I had it or will my hair type change from puffy/afro hair to mabey straight or really curly hair? Can someone change their hair type from a buzz cut?
Some peoples hair goes from straight to curly or vice versa after a traumatic injury/incident/stress etc but not from a buzz cut.
The simple answer, Sunia, is a distinct, "No."
Like you, except twenty years ago (hey, I'm fifty, not nineteen like you are!), I completely buzzed off all of my hair. So, when everything grew back in again, the sides that were always very curly grew back in very curly, and the top, front, and back (or occipital) regions grew in wavy-to-straight all over again.
Does that answer your question? Cutting your hair off completely doesn't change its texture or its color when it grows in again, unless, of course, you're being exposed to radio isotopes during the regrowth process, I would imagine.

Sunia, Thats a very silly question.
I think that you should accept your hair how it naturally is and stop cutting it. You seem to have kinky/curly etc.. hair found predominantly in people of African descent. Perhaps you can chemically straighten it if it makes you happy. I wouldn't suggest this though because of the damage you will inflict upon that PRECIOUS:-) hair of yours .......
I like the puffy/afro look to my hair & I wouldn't want straight or just curly hair. I was just asking if my hair will grow back to way it was or will there might be slight chance that it will grow out differently....
Pardon me Sunia. I must've misunderstood your question.
Actually there may be some truth to that. I used to live next door to people who would cut their hair at the first sign of curls forming in an effort to make their hair growing straight (because it naturally grew curly for some of them). All of them now have perfectly straight hair without the use of chemicals or straighteners.
