Crazy Cool Thick Curly Hair Guide

Updated Jan 21, 2008

If you have an out of control curly mane to tame, this one's for you! THE PROS: No balding ever! Forget hours of flat-ironing, just wash, scrunch and go. No hair extensions. Curly hair adds a fun flirty persona. Strangers oooh and ahhhh with hair envy often. THE CONS: So thick it can be hot and overwhelming. Takes forever to dry. If the proper hair accoutrements aren't applied, a bad hair day is sure to follow. Combing is trying and shedding occurs. When cut shorter, waking up with an afro is common.
