Have you Ever Got your Hair Straightened?
#31
It look great both ways. My hair is weird. Is super curly and I kept it like that for many years. My family did not support changing it. When I became an adult and could have it my way I started to relax it and let it grow. I went back to curly 5 years ago but wasn't me any more, so I let it grow again. I have it relaxed every 6 weeks. Usually do it myself, but is easier to get someone else to do it. I them wash it and wrap it around my head over night. I n the morning I blow dry it and use the flat iron to straighten it further. I have done it for so long that it now takes me 20 minutes to do the whole thing. My hair is a few inches shorter than yours.

I've had my hair curly and straight. It's easier to put up and wear combs and such when it curly but it's easier to brush when it's straight. Now it's just natural and I don't do a whole lot to it because it's pretty long---around 4 ft, and it's thick. However, your hair is beautiful both ways and so are you.

Your hair looks pretty either way. I had my hair chemically straightened years ago. I ended up with hair 1/2" long on the front of my head.....it had cracked off due to the harsh chemicals. Fortunately my hair grows fast.

One of my friends has really and truly natural curly hair, I envy her sooo much!!!

Before the days of special irons for hair, my oldest daughter used to iron hers on my ironing board with the regular iron for laundry. I thought she was nutz. I had a bit of natural curl, but not as curly as hers. I would have exchanged with her in a nano-second.
