    @Shaunie I got mine cut shorter in stages lol, got a bit cut off about 3 years ago and then went a lot shorter last year just after I left school. For me having long curly hair made it difficult to deal with and got frizzy really easily. At the same time as cutting it shorter I also stopped constantly straightening it which helped a lot.
    Ah aw I wished I had curly hair. Feel like my straight hair makes me look boring lol!  Curly hair just looks so cute lolI guess always the case tho. Those with curly hair want straight and those with straight want curly

    @Shaunie that is very very true we all want what we don’t have when it comes to hair. People with straight hair curl their hair and us with curly hair straighten it ahaha. Curly hair is fun sometimes but it comes with its problems, mine is not only curly but it’s very dry so I’ve had to learn how to style it and look after it cause a lot of things I used to do were really damaging for it and probably what made it so dry aha.

    Ah yeah straightening it a lot can make it dry out I thinkk. I like always like putting my hair different and makes me feel a bit different. Which reminds me. I’m gunna do two French plaits for work tomorrow!

    My mum has really curly hair and she keeps it short and learnt to take if it and she really embraces it.
    I prefer curly hair tbh. I think straight hair is awful personally.

    @GreenTea thank you <3<3 

    @Shaunie aww that sounds nice I always found it really hard to plait my hair by myself it just was really annoying cause it was so curly lol. I like doing my hair too it’s one of things you can be creative with - same with makeup.

    @GreenTea yeah I’ve learned to like my hair a bit more over the years. And especially now I’ve found someone who knows how to cut curly hair. That’s half the battle. A lot of hairdressers straighten it before they cut it which then means the curls don’t form properly aha

    My mum had this issue. She finds it hard to find someone who actually knows what to do with curly hair. A lot of people aren't shown how to cut curly hair.

    @GreenTea yeah it seems to be a common thing. I used to go to a salon 20 minutes away, people there were lovely but they all used to straighten my hair then cut it and it never turned out that great, so I always ended up straightening it again myself because it looked better straight because it’d been cut that way. Then I started getting my eyebrows waxed at a salon 5 minutes up the road, tried getting my hair done there and it was a great experience :)

    Boys perming the top of their heads was a trend not long ago
  • Past UserPast User Posts: 1,997 Extreme Poster
    Aye it were just the wee middle bit. Everyone was telling me it looked ok but it definitely did not 😆 and if I tried to brush it out it just got bushy and the curls pinged everywhere 😆 I’ll never do that again 
  • Former MemberFormer Member ☕🌻☕ Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    Ahahaha at least you gave it a try
  • independent_independent_ Community Champion Posts: 9,080 Supreme Poster
    @Liam ahahahahaha sorry but I laughed out loud as well!! Spaghetti 😂😂

    I can’t brush my hair ever or it goes into that frizz ball and goes everywhere. I have to use one of those wide tooth combs (I have 3 dotted around the house).

    Speaking of curly hair, mine really does have a mind of its own. This was taken last year and the joy was short lived because its started to frizz. The curl pattern is different all over my head and the middle just grows looser than the rest lol. 

    My twin sister has looser curls and people often ask her if she's mixed with Asian and now she says just mess with them  loool
