I never heard of DEVA Curl. I do like to wear my hair straight, but getting it there and keeping it nice are two different things. fingers — Thanks for the recommendation. I never heard of DEVA Curl.

Oh, when I think of all the time I wasted and the damage I probably inflicted upon my curls! I used to use a hairdryer with a roller attachment to straighten the curls as I dried. Truth is, half the time as soon as it hit the outdoor air, it frizzed up again. I'm glad I finally figured it out! Thanks for dropping by! Annie Keys — You and I had the exact same experience.

I just found your blog. You are so brave. I wouldn't dare post pictures of myself from highschool. Your hair is gorgeous (okay maybe not in that picture) but your current picture looks great! My daughter has very curly hair and I love it. I definitely think that her curly hair is one of the reasons she runs from me when I bring out the hair brush. Oh my gosh. I just found your blog.

I have curly hair (not as curly as yours) and I would just detangle the outer layer when I was a kid. That left huge rat's nests underneath. When those were discovered, no amount of J&J would help me, either. <em>Lorrie's last blog post..<a href='http://talesfromthedelkside.blogspot.com/2008/02/do-ipod-shuffle.html' rel="nofollow">Do The iPod Shuffle</a></em> I should have bought stock in J&J No More Tears, the way I went through that stuff.

When I started wearing my hair curly the last year or so, women would come up to me and just stare. Most asked if it was natural, and some even wanted to touch it. It's a strange feeling to be complemented on my curls after so many years of fighting them with all my might. Lee — Glad you’re back!
