Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

I have fine, thine hair. So, it is naturally straight and very flat. I would prefer to have wavy hear. I had tried perms to get it that does not work very well.

I have fine straight hair that doesn't seem to want to let me style it unfortunately. I will have to learn some new techniques if I'm going to do anything interesting with it.

Straight is the only option. It never holds shape or volume. Id prefer it wavy but not happening!

I've only been growing my hair from very short since January. The sides are now an inch below my ear so starting to get long enough to do something with.
If I comb it straight and let it dry then it just curls out sideways.
If I use a hair drier and round brush to put some shape into it. The shape lasts an hour at most and then curls out sideways.
So my only option seems to be curly.

The good news though is that several people have said how much they like it now so I'll leave it as it is until it grows further.

Mine's naturally curly so I just leave it be. Wavy and curvy can be kinda close, but I lean towards curly. Not tight curls. 💚

If people are commenting they like it then maybe don't change it.

If you are growing it out the best route is apparently getting a pixie cut so triming the back and sides until the top catches up then swith to a boxie (bob pixie combo), then into a bob and eventually into a longer style. Once it gets to bob length you can use straighteners.

If you are unhappy with not being able to style it. I have been reading that the way to get volume in short hair is to apply volumising mousse to wet hair out of the shower then do the hairdryer with round or vented brush thing lifting sections from the root, tease it into shape then apply either a waxy gel or hairspray to hold in place. I have not tried this yet. I bought some mousse but I can't find my hairdryer! I think I may have packed it already!

We all have our preferences it seems.  Those with straight hair often wish they had wavy hair, and vice versa.

Wigs can be useful!

Hi, so, I like it straight, but it has some waves on the sides.
The longer it gets, the longer the wave...and I like my hair the way it grows.
I don't know if I'll play with curls or completely straight at some point, but for now, I am happy.
