Does my hair look damaged?

Hi so I’m not sure if anyone remembers me from my recent post that was like 3 days ago, if u don’t I made a post about my mom forcing me to relax my hair and my mom is going to do it today at the salon :’D

anyway, does my hair look damaged in this pic? I remember I relaxed my hair since 2023 and I tried going natural but failed (cuz I don’t know how to take care of it, or maybe I didn’t had the right products) which made me just wash my hair, using a styling cream called vatika and use a hair dryer brush then straighten it afterwards and if my hair dries up and looks a bit off, I just wait for 3 or 2 days then shower.

I don’t know if I should do a big chop because my hair looks like this..or just get a relaxer and wait for new growth then trim the ends..(I’m scared of big chop aaa)

also if ur wondering how my hair ended up looking like that, yesterday I added a hair repair leave in cream into my hair, hoping it would help but then I slept because I felt exhausted and it ended up looking like that 😓
