Confessions of a Girl with Curly Hair

I don't think I am alone in my feelings about naturally curly hair.

It's:

Frizzy

Crispy

Unmanageable

Unpredictable

Lazy Looking (Only on me, not on others)

Never the same twice

Makes me look like a 5 year old

It's also:

Easy

Having had curly hair my whole life, I know the struggles all too well that come with curly hair. I know how it feels waking up to crazy bed head with only 10 minutes to tame, and no idea what to do with it. I also know the frustration and upper body strength that come with straitening my hair every day just to look like the rest of the girls that hair air dries like that. (Curly hair does not air dry that well, ever). 

Don't get me wrong I probably wouldn't trade my hair if I could, but some days I kinda wish I could temporarily. There are some perks of having curly hair, and maybe some day I will go into them, but not today. At least I have a husband good enough to say he loves my curls. So, here is a photo montage illustrating my points.  

Point to be made: These are some of the pictures where I "like" the way my hair looks. I have pics that are much worse, but what can I say, I am a little vain.

Short Curly Hair: Not my best look (hence 5 year old comment)
