Your hair looks beautiful! Both ways!!!
Why is it that we women always want to change our hair?
Mine used to be straighter than straight and in the past had spent plenty of money getting perms. Now I have a little more body and a slight wave, I like it like that but of course now I have to hide the little bit of gray that is starting to appear!!

You look wonderful BOTH ways...you have been blessed with wonderful hair. I am so envious of people with curls lol I never understand why they want it straight.

With me, it was more that I just wanted it smooth. I can still curl it or style it any way I want, but none of the frizz factor, even when it's rainy.

So did you get it chemically straightened? I have thought about doing this too, but wasnt sure how it was on your hair.

If you saw my curls you would understand. My curls are so tight that being 3 inches long it would curl and seem to be half inch long or less. When is humid it freezes and goes up. I had it chemically straightened and I love it now. It is long, past my shoulders and I love it. The only problem with the chemical relaxer is that you can not wash it and let it air dry. It gets too frizzy. I blow dry after every wash and every once in a while I use a flat iron to help it lay flat.

I would love it if I could just blow dry it, I have very thick hair and it is curly so it is a nightmare to dry and straighten it. I may just have to try these soon.

Girls with curly hair want straight and girls with straight hair want curly. That is the way of the world.
