DO NOT DO IT , BABE
haha i haf been surviving with curly hair for abt… 3wks alr. hey! its not an easy task ok! i nv buy ‘curly hair mask’ (i m not sure if there’s such a product), i nv use wax, bouncy cream and all that.
my hair is like straightening alot already. gonna go back to the old ‘wavvy’ hairstyle that i used to sport. haha u mus be thinking ‘damn! 3wks only and its straightening out already?
yes u bet! its straightening at an exponential rate.
at first super curly. just like MAC DONALD’S CURLY FRIES!! that sounded very degrading. haha okay ,i mean, fresh curls k.
lets go thru the process of ‘curls loosening’ and what u need to b wary of if u want long lasting curls. (in order to make ur money WORTH!)
DISCLAIMER: anw, those are hear-says. that i have accumulated from frens who, unfortunately, also hearsay fm other ppl. hahha. the inaccuracy is imaginable. cos u know, when information cascades down, the accuracy is always lost. but u just read lar(discerningly)
1) TRY NOT TO SLEEP ON YOUR CURLS (from: Fujing, a fellow girls home volunteer) she said that when u sleep ON ur curls, it’ll flatten out. coupled with the fact that ur pillow traps heat, the heat wil enhance the un-curling process
2) DO NOT COMB YR HAIR UNNECESSARILY (from: Ai Wei, a senior from hall six) d accuracy if this is quite high cos aiwei herself has curly hair thats dam nice. to-die-for-curls. If u really haf a compulsiv disorder to comb hair, convert ur comb to a brush. a wide toothed brush
3) COMB WHEN ITS WET (from Ai wei, again) She says that combing when its dry will cause the curls to look diffused and it wil b dam ugly
4) Bun up yr hair when u sleep (From Fu Jing) She says that u gotta twirl and twirl ur hair till it curls up in a compact bun. Then, tie it up and sleep on the bun (with curls as fillings ) haha. okay u might not get d joke. that was COLD joke yeah.
5) use hair wax everyday(from Geraldine, my chem engin senior) she says that curls are in fact, artificial inducement and therefore wont last (well, easy come easy go principle applies) so, hair wax has to be used to prevent the hair from straightening day by day. look, for long hairs, the weight of the hair tends to pull the curls down so naturally u need a material to support the weight of the hair in order to maintain the curls
6) go for hair treatment(from Kanae my bro’s jap gf who currently sports curly hair. haha). she says that the hair will increasingly be dry and hair treatment is necessary to maintain the hair quality. if the hair quality is good, naturally the curls look better. frankly, mine is shrivelled and it looks like sahara desert now man. ytd i even cut off certain portion of my superbly tangled hair after spending 5mins detangling one spot only. waste my youth!! oh golden youth!!
7) do not tie up your hair (from Rou-Hui, my fellow Joint dance concert ticketing officer) she says that tying up hair makes the curls disappear. that sounded freaky but i haf not tied up my hair for dam long alr (ok, with the exception of the few hours while playing ISG)
haiyar, just go for temporary curls. looks better. seriously.
when i wear sleeveless and the locks of curls swept past my back, it felt very much like dreadlocks or sth. u knoe, when u haf straight hair (which u probably haf right now) the flow and motion of hair feels continuoous. but when u curl it, thats when ur world starts crumbling and u feel that the motion of hair across ur back feels like a ’step function’. very discontinuous. i hated that feeling. but that only lasted one day. the next day, the curls loosened.
and it loosened
loosened
and its now, in a -i dunno-wad state.
