Yay! More posts about how I'm such a hypocrite!

*whew* again. Confessions:
1. I staightened my hair. I have a new ethos: nothing wrong with straightening your hair, as long as it's occassionaly, and you still love your curly hair. And you don't fry it.
2. I can be heard to say "agh! I hate my hair!". But this is only because it's getting frizzy...exams are taking my attention away from important things. Like my hair.
So...in the theme of my confessions...Tips!
Straightening:
*Use lots and lots and lots of straightening balm, and heat protection stuff.
*Even though brushing your hair while curly is a sin, you must brush it a lot when you straighten it.
*Bring an umbrella. The tiniest bit of moisture and BAM! Frizz.
*Don't straighten your hair more then once a month.
Summer:
*Wash your hair less. Example: if, like me, you wash your hair every other day, wash it every three days.
*Repeat after me: conditioner is my friend.
*OK: if you're blow-drying your hair, put gel in. If your letting it dry naturally, put in some mousse and scrunch, scrunch, SCRUNCH.
