Hi,
Here is some advice from one natural curly head to another.
Mine too was very curly as a child and when I reached about your age, it decided to straightn.
However......when I was 25 and had my first child my hair changed its mind and went back curly.
Glory Days are here again!!!
Its been 10 years since (yes I am 35) and it is still very curly and I love it!!!
Moral to the story....Love the hair you have right now. Take good care of it and who knows what can happen. Just keep it healthy!!
I am a professional Hairstylist/Haircolorist with 19 years experience. I have traveled all over the country for my advanced education. I am also a salon owner.:)........and I LOVE Redken!!!
You can try what I did, I use to have naturally curly hair too now I have to get perms. What a pain..

I'd give you some advice, but I think Sophie covered it all :) Most of all, I'd agree with getting the right cut. Search around a little to find a stylist who specializes in curly/ wavy hair, since it needs to be cut somewhat differently than stright hair. Also, she mentioned gels, sprays, etc. that enhance curl...I'd recommend Dream Curls by John Frieda or Springing Curls by L'Oreal- I've had good result with both of them. Good luck to ya!
Love, Inga

Hey Molly; OK, it could be a change because of your age, sometimes hair changes at your age because of adolescence...that being said, I would be willing to bet that you still have wave in your hair.
Yes, a layered style would lighten the weight, change and fill out the shape, depending on how much layering you have done.
There are some most excellent products on the market to enhance curly hair...gels, spray gels...they're clean and lightweight and work great with a defuser.
Last but NOT LEAST some shampoos and conditioners can really weigh hair down with too much moisture...Is your hair fine or course??...One way to tell if you are over moisturized is, after shampooing with a towel gently squeeze (don't rub) the water out of your hair, comb to smooth. If the hair is still dripping (really wet) after you comb out you could be over moist...
This just means that if your hair is too heavy with moisture its hard to get the wave set in there when you defuse it.It should be light and bouncy. You can switch to a shampoo and conditioner that is not moisturizing, hydrating, for dry hair etc.
Ask a great Stylest, preferably one with curly hair.
Hi, every1 when i was little i had naturally really curly hair and then when i was 6 or 7 it started going away.
