Curly Girl
I don’t know why I’m thinking about hair today, but I am. Maybe it’s because Jon cut 3 inches off of my hair last night? He did a really good job. Curly hair is so easy.

The funny thing about my hair is this — I didn’t even know that I had curly hair until I was like 13. All I knew before that was that whenever I had my hair in braids or a pony tail, I would start out the morning looking smooth and sleek and end the day with a halo of frizz.

See? Halo of frizz, check.

And then one day I went swimming, didn’t comb my hair and looked in the mirror several hours later and discovered ringlets. On my head. What a revelation.

Now, when one has curly hair, you have to give up a few things. Looking sleek and smooth — it’s not going to happen without a lot of effort and time, hair products and electrical gadgets. We all know how lazy I am with those types of things so I just let the urge to have sleek hair pass.

With curly hair, you also give up your brush and comb. What? That’s right, curly girls should never brush their hair. No. That is how you get the old halo frizz effect going. It does nothing for your curls.

Finally, with curly hair, it is important to always use conditioner the lower half of your hair and finger comb it through before rinsing. That, and using a product like this one to style. Seriously, this is my favorite hair product — the best thing for curly hair.

So, like I said, I don’t know why I was inspired to do the curly hair tutorial here — and it’s not like I know everything about it, of course I don’t — but well there it is, anyway.
