Re: I have Curly Hair

I have Curly Hair

and let me tell you, it's the biggest pain in the bum! It might not get tangled, but it's nearly impossible to control most of the time. It frizzes when I want it to lie flat. It goes limp when I want it to be curly.

If I wasn't convinced that I have a funny-shaped head, I'd shave it all off - and I wouldn't donate it to the cancer society either, because those poor people have suffered enough, and I wouldn't want to burden them with my wild locks!

That's why my mom kept our hair in braids.  She didn't like our screaming while she tried to comb out tangles.  And, of course, that was way before conditioners that kept straight hair tangle free.

Well it wasn't much of a temptation I was avoiding it's just that
it could be very unpleasant and uncomfortable with short and curlies if they were short and straights in a tangle. Imagine blue boy on that bike all tangled up!

Troosh
Indeed. BTW, I don't think he got funds for this, although he might have had some from L'Oreal, who might have thought it was worth it...

Ariala, curly hair is a necessary but not sufficient pre-condition to understanding quantum physics...

Well, I don't quite know what to do with that information........
but I'm going to think of something.....there has to be something worthwhile about knowing that......I know it, I just know it...... Which reminds me.....why is there so much concern about landfill space and using up resources and all that when the very same people who are usually first in line at these rally's are usually responsible for all the first amendment contortionism to allow false advertising, pornography, malicious slander and gossip-mongering.....filling people's grey matter, our greatest natural resources and most precious storage space......crap.....blather, blather, blather, blather.....absolutely nothing to do with your blog.....well, I know how I ended up there.....forgot my ADD med this morning.......TTFN

Yet another ground-breaking discovery (I wonder how much funding they got to do this critical research)

Good thing I'm wearing mine curly today...I find I need to brush it less

I have curly hair and I can honestly say that I have rarely ever had kinked
up tangles or knots.  And I only comb my hair every three or four days, so go figure...
