NCR: Top 10 Concerns For Curly Heads!

NaturallyCurly.com asked their CurlTalkers for their biggest concerns about your curls and kinks, and they told us. The answers covered a wide range of topics, from self-image issues to finding a good stylist. Here are the ones that rose to the top of the list.

1. Triangle Head! On a similar note, many people cited “Flat Top.”

2. Finding a stylist who understands how to work with curls “Finding a stylist who knows how to deal with curly hair without making their curly client look like a mushroom when done. (nightmare process! I just went 6 years without a professional cut!),” said CurlyCassieRo.

3. Finding Holy Grail products “Countless people can say, ‘oh this product really worked for my hair and it’ll work for you too’ but then you try this billion-dollar product you end up with straw-hair. Believe me, it’s happened to me!” says Alannah Angel.

4. Unpredictability “With the same routine every single day for 30 days, I can have 20 different heads of hair in a month, and maybe only half of them are good, if I’m lucky,” says PrettyPorcupine. “I know you’re just supposed to ‘embrace’ its “unique” personality and be all “free and easy,” but let’s face it. That is just not realistic when you have to look decent for work every day, want to be sure you look good on a date or for a special event, or because you just are so fricking tired of not knowing how the hell your hair is going to look at any given time.”

5. Acceptance of curls in society and in the workplace.. “Every time I pick up a magazine or see a segment on a TV show about “how to manage your curls,” the answer is always to straighten them! It’s insulting,”says Tinah. “The mainstream media pushes straight hair as the only acceptable option. Just once I’d like to read an article on how to manage curly hair that actually tells me how to manage curly hair, not how to make curly hair straight. I’m pretty sure we ALL know how to make it straight! We’ve spent years doing it!”
