My hair has been the bane of my existence for as long as I can remember. It never did anything I wanted…ever.
Sure most women say that but I really mean it. My dear mother always had short hair so pig tails and pin curls were as fancy as we got in my home.

I’ve lived in super humidity; needed a bowl cut after a “trim” from my little brother; rocked almost every ridiculous 90′s style; and finally cut it short for college & uniform wearing in Seminary.

After graduation I grew it out and straightened it with a blow dryer. Or at least I tamed the frizzy waves.
The best thing to come out of anaphylaxis was my waves turning to full on curls. I’m a curly girl now.

I wake up each morning with a mess of hair on my head. It’s not too pretty.

I’ve tried making it straight and pretty. Half an hour later I have two options. Pin back my bangs in a puff or a pretty head band. After all the effort my hair still of work held it’s wave and I had to rush out the door.

Time for a change. Same hair, next day. Quick dollar store spray bottle, a microfiber towel and a bit more mousse. Voila, curly hair in 5 minutes. And it lasts all day even though the rain, heat & Zumba.

I’d say it’s curly hair for the win. At least the everyday do it myself win. We’ll leave the fancy blow outs to the professionals.
