My hair is long-ish. Middle of my back. It is very thick and has a tendency to frizz like crazy. I use Aussie shampoo and conditioner. Lots and lots of conditioner! I never blow dry but that's just because I look like Don King if I do. It is generally in a single French braid to keep it out of my way. I HATE to fix hair. I'm terrible at it so long hair works for me. I wash it and slap it in a braid. End of hair maintenance.
