Curly hair girls -please come in

[caroline]

I know that I saw some photos here, of some beautiful lady with her hair (REALLY curly hair!) being worn down!

 

She looked stunning! And like she stepped off the cover of a magazine... But I keep trying to be realistic. My hair is not 'curly' - but rather, 'wavy.' And it blows up disgustingly frizzy with humidity. I DON'T want to be forced to wear a tight-nit bun... I'm thinking "loose" with some SERIOUS anti-frizz, conditioning creme (or something of the like!) will be what I'm going to do.

 

Curly is great... if you're naturally curly!

 

And to all of you who bitch about about being so STRAIGHT, or so CURLY... Try being stuck in the middle!!! LOL. Grass is always greener...

My hair is basically the same as Heidi. I used to always get my hair braided when I went anywhere. The first time I got it braided down there, and it was not a good experience, so my Mom would braid mine and my sisters hair before going. Now I went to Cuba a couple years ago without braids and my hair wasn't too bad, so I am hoping to have my hair down somewhat. If I keep it all down, I will get so hot and will keep playing with it and it will get frizzy. At the same time I don't want to pull it all back without any curls.

So far my Mom has been playing with a couple of different styles, and they weren't too bad, but I didn't take any pics.

Thanks for the post and have the ideas come up. I have curly hair and wsn't sure what to do. Now I have some ideas

I have naturally really tight curly hair. That gets frizzy in almost any weather.

I was so worried about this that I had them straighten it and then pull it back because I just didnt want to worry about my hair all night. I knew if I tried to wear it down I would have been in the ladies room every 15 minutes checking on it.

Curly hair? No problem! I wore my hair as natural as I do every day with the addition of a little extra mousse to help maintain the frizzies. I might have liked wear a veil but, that just isn't my style. I really love that my wedding day pictures look like "me" and not like "me all dolled up for a wedding".

Im flat ironing mine!

my hair is very curly too and I wore it mostly down with a few pieces loosely pinned up - it worked great for me. Yeah I wouldn't go straight cuz once you get hot it is all over and doesn't look cute!

Thank you so much..ive been looking for a post like this and was just about to make one myself I have found a few updos at naturallycurlygirl.com other than that I also need ideas..if any one has pics please post and if i find any i will too!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the plan is to straighten mine as usual and then put it up. i get so hot so fast so it will have to be up no matter what! i will have to see how my hair handles the heat when i get there. if it wont go straight then i will be pulling it back curly. i may have to do the "put a few pins in it messy look" too. we will see.
