love my curly hair

I remember seeing my hair in pictures when i was about 5 years old. I have long straight hair. I mean it was straight as a stick, but somehow throughout the years it became very curly. I used to hate it. I straightened it all the time, i hated that it didn’t do a thing that i wanted it to do. I was miserable with my hair. I didn’t use the proper hair care products either so you’d imagine it was very dry and brittle. At times it was extremely oily too. I couldn’t get the right balance. I got it cut and it was a mop, i grew it out and it was too tangled. After so many years, i figured out how to manage it. I wear it down more often, i refrain from dying it, and i do not like to straighten it either. Whether i use a comb or a brush, it has not hurt my hair. I love that it’s curly now! My bf likes it and so does everyone else. I feel very confident!!!

Sitting outside in the sun yesterday with friends, I mentioned that my hair seems to take ages to grow because it curls up so much, and they’d have to see it wet to see how long it was. At these words, a guy I’ve known for a few months sat bolt upright and exclaimed “What, it’s NATURAL?”

Apparently he thought I used a curling iron every morning.

Made my day.

On Monday at work, I was at the computer entering the food orders, and one of my coworkers came over and said, “I just have to tell you that I love your hair.” And today I also had it down; the guy who delivers our linens walked by and said, “Your hair looks real cute like that.” Made my day!

I wouldn’t hate my curly hair as much if the curls actually did what I wanted them to do! They’re all over the place, and even when I use product, they get poofier and more volumous…
See, I’m unfortunate because I have curly AND thick hair! At the same time!!! It’s frustrating, really.

My hair has always been curly, but has gotten curlier as I’ve gotten older, probably because I’ve learned how to use hair product. I never really hated it when I was younger, but I used to see those shampoo commercials on TV and wish my hair was silky and shiny like that. Now, though, I’ve learned the importance of a good haircut. That, coupled with the fact that lots of straight-haired people wish they had curls, make me love what I have.

It’s hard to manage, and I always have problems with it. But, I am willing to try to accept it. i will not straighten it (usually I do like once a month) anymore, and I will learn to use the right products and manage it right. I will look at people with straight hair and go, “Psh, I don’ envy your hair. My hair is damn sexy.”

for years i hated my really curly hair sometimes got teased about it at school nothing major just joking about but i wished so much tht i could have straight hair. but now i love my curls my look is very individual thanks to my curls. Now rather than try and brush them down like i used to do i fluff up my curls to make them appear even wilder.

I can truly say i am finaly happy with my hair and am not going to straighten my hair any time soon
