Wavy hair is not straight hair. Sounds obvious, right? We can see the difference in shape, but our expectations often get misplaced. Many wavies (my past self included) expect our hair to dry and style like straight hair: smooth, uniform, predictable. That comparison is where most frustrations start. Here’s what comes with truly accepting and learning your wavy hair: ➰ It’s not uniform - you’ll likely have a mix of curl patterns, and that’s normal. ➰ It’s poofy unstyled or brushed - the right techniques can transform the finish. ➰ It’s naturally frizzier than straight hair - textured strands grow in different directions, so some will always stick out (aka frizz). ➰ It challenges perfectionism - straightening creates control, but wavy hair rarely dries the same way twice. That’s part of its beauty. 🎥 More tips, tricks, and tutorials on my page. wavycurly naturallywavy curlcare wavyhairroutine wavyhairtips wavyhair
