Want to know what I heard today? It's actually something I hear rather frequently, as a matter of fact.
'My god, I love your curls. Um... have you ever tried straightening them?'
Now, why would you say this? Don't tell me that you like me as I am, and then politely suggest that I change anyways.
Even after I tell them that I looked like a sea urchin with my hair straight (It sticks up in all directions, plus I have no ******** clue how to style straight hair) They invariably say 'oh, you should let me straighten it sometime'
how will that make a difference? I have tried several times, and had others try, and tried straightening irons and clothes irons, and it turned out the same way every time. It wasn't even straight. It was wavy. and that only lasted until I stepped outside, where the slightest breath of humidity puffed it up like a fuzzball.
But I doubt I would even be me with straight hair. I mean, I would be me no matter what kind of hair I had, but struggling with my hair my entire life has played a big part in the person that I've become.
All of a sudden having normal hair instead of this huge mess?
erm... maybe once in awhile, but I want to keep my hair the way it is. It's me.
(Besides, straight hair looks like total s**t on me.)
Heh heh. I'm biting my lip in that picture.
Now excuse me, I'm going to go try to straighten my hair.
