Hello curly girls! I hope you’re having a wonderful hair day. If you’re a curly girl, you understand that having curly hair is definitely an adventure! Straight-haired girls will never understand the problems that only curly girls understand. But your fellow curly sisters totally get it!
Here are 13 problems that only curly girls understand.
Your hair is better at predicting the weather than the local meteorologist.
Did you know that, in 1783, scientist Horace Bénédict de Saussure was the first to use a human hair in his hygrometer design? That’s because hair is extremely sensitive to changes in humidity. That rainstorm coming? Your hair probably started getting frizzy hours before any clouds appeared. #curlygirllife
Not enough gel—your curls poof out into crazy curls right out of The Princess Diaries!
Too much gel—your curls look like ramen noodles.
I’ll just quickly jump in the shower and then leave – said no curly girl ever.
Curly hair takes a while to wash—and, if you’re like me, even longer to dry.
Curly hair is notoriously unpredictable. You might try exactly the same techniques AND products- and get wildly different results. Thanks, humidity.
When you’ve just washed your hair and you smell like a bowl of tropical fruit salad!
One of the wonderful things about curly hair products is that they smell DELICIOUS! On wash day, you can definitely think you’re on a tropical island if you shut your eyes…
It might be all the wonderful Curly Girl approved products, or it might be your hair’s big volume. But, there’s no way you can wash your hair in the morning and get it dry by 8 am.
The underside of your hair, that no one can see, is always perfect.
Protected from environmental damage, the most darling curls like to hide on the underside of your hair.
If that hairdresser cuts off too much, you are going to have a sinking feeling in your stomach. And it won’t get better when you look in the mirror.
You always run out of conditioner before you run out of shampoo!
Because curls just need so much moisture.
We all know what brushes do to curly hair! (At least dry brushes!)
You can’t deny that the curls on the floor are yours because everyone else obviously has straight hair.
No more hiding your real hair.
Being asked as a ten year old if your hair was permed. (problems that only curly girls understand)
Thanks but actually, no. I got this amazing hairstyle for free!
Spending an hour browsing the hair care product aisle before deciding that none of them will work, anyway.
Looking for the right hair care products is an epic JOURNEY, sister. Trying a new hair product is slightly dangerous. It might make your curls look amazing. Or you could wake up with a rat’s nest on your head. #truth
