    She did a good job.
    Many years ago I tried to straighten my blonde very curly hair
    with some kind of chemical. It turned out like straw!

    Now I just use a curling iron and it comes out wavy.
    Or I just leave it curly. I do keep it short.

    You look beautiful both ways. I was born a redhead with curly hair. I remember when my greatgrandmother had me for a few weeks before school and decided to perm my hair. It was so fly away outside that I could not go out. My mother almost had a heart attack when she picked me up. I straightened my hair one time as an adult and almost cried because I didn't know what to do with it. It would do nothing for me. I will keep my curly hair. I use a blow dryer or brush rollers sometimes to get the curl out. It does frizz up in humid weather. I now color my hair and keep it just a little longer to be able to keep it curled and styled. Once in a while in the summer I just let it curl up when its hot and humid.

    Oh, ptquilts...you made me smile to think back. Yes, to the orange juice cans and I used to lay my head on ironing board and iron my hair too. I had natural wavy hair and straight was the "in" thing.

    You're a knockout!! I love it!!

    Yes, I've gotten my hair straightened way to many times to count.. everytime a perm would look like &)@*(&, I couldn't stand it and would straighten it..

    I think the last time I did that was back about 14 years ago..now I flatten it with a flat iron (haven't had a perm in as long, but you couldn't tell with the way my hair looks when I wake up) :lol:
