I just discovered this site and have been enjoying the resources and information immensely! I am not a hairdresser, but work alongside the industry (I'm a make-up artist) and love styling and generally playing with hair :) Anyway, my question: I have red, naturally curly/wavy hair which seems to get curlier the longer it gets, only problem is that the curl is very uneven - ringlets in some places right through to almost straight in others! If I leave it in it's "natural" state, it looks messy....so I spend time blowdrying it straight or just wearing it up. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to it to even out the curl. Initially, I was thinking of perming it....but after reading the perm horror stories on this discussion board, I feel I've been "saved" from a potential hair disaster! (thanks for that) I have also tried setting it in pin curls and rag curls, but then my hair just goes like an afro! Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?To Rini;I know that you see some peoples 'perm horror stories',and get scared, but don't panic and close your mind to options that might help you. Hair such as yours can easily be tamed by doing a 'soft perm' which will 'restructure' your curls into a managable 'do. This should be done on one size larger rods than normally for your desired curls. I would reccomend Redkens Vector Plus Extra Body formula and a very experienced stylist for this perm. william

Rini: My hair has curly spots, wavy spots, and straight spots. When I want to go totally curly, I can use a "curl revitalizing" product, such as KMS, Loreal, Aussie, etc. and get pretty good results. HTH:) Laura
