wet curls?

Why does my hair curl up when it's wet but when it dries it's basically straight with a little wave? Is there any way I can keep it like that when it's dry? P.S I'm 13 and my hair used to be naturally curly but it came out when i was around the age of 7.

My hair is like that also. It's curly when wet but frizzes up after it's dry. There is a product I'm going to try called Curl Keeper, that is supposed to keep it looking wet and curly all day. It doesn't have permanent chemicals in it either like perms or anything.

If its frizzy, try frizzease hair serum, it really smooths the frizz, and u can put it on when its wet or dry. to keep the "wet curl" without a lot of product, scrunch your hair with a little curling gel (not a lot, it will weigh it down) and blow dry your hair on low upside down. i find that when your head is flipped, the curls form easier in your fingers and when you flip back up, your curls are soft with TONS of body! Good Luck!

Have you tried letting it dry naturally, with just a little medium hold gel? It may be frizzy, but it's usually the blowdrying and the brushing that pulls out the curls.
