Ten Things I've Learned About Curly Hair

10. it's a shoo-in for crazy hair contests
9. it will hold just about any shape, given the right amount of bobby pins
8. blow drying=blow frying
7. it's easy to be percieved as either carefree, or careless
6. it is never satisfied. it wants MORE MORE MORE conditioner, pretty much always
5. mousse is a great 80's product, if you want 80's hair
4. ...and even though 80's is "in," the 'fro for white people ISN'T
3. NO sodium lauryl sulfate or sodium laureth suldate. NO alcohol. NO silicons
2. NEVEREVERVER brush it. except in case of #10

And the number one thing i've learned about curly hair is...

1. anybody who has it should be pretty much grateful. straightening it every day won't help... it dries out your hair and makes it worse. so EMBRACE YOUR CURLINESS
