We always want what we don’t have. Curly-haired vixens always want to kick their corkscrews to the curb in favor of stick-straight hair, while those of us with only a hint of a limp wave want undulating, Keri Russell-like locks of love.
We spray, rub, and massage curl-enhancing unguents into our manes. We scrunch. We dry with a diffuser. And voilà! We achieve the follicular stuff of which pre-Raphaelite dreams are made. One problem: we could blind a passerby with our crunchy curls. More post- than pre-Perseus Medusa, our hair is a mass of stone-cold locks.
Put down the can, jar, and bottle and learn to love yourself, limp hair and all. You could poke an eye out.

OMGyouaresofunny! I couldn't agree with you more! Thanks for the laugh.
Hey! Don't be hating my crunchy curls!
All it takes is one bad 80s perm to make you embrace your limp stick-straight hair for life.
But the 80s was full of big hair, especially the shows on tv at the time. And we all wanted it. I didn't have it though.
Oh jeez, you mean that crunchy look is on purpose? I always assumed the women who have it just got out of the shower and said "I'm late, the hell with combing my hair today."
Well hello spiral perm. It's been a long time. How have you been? Hey, leave my pant legs alone! I don't peg my jeans anymore. Not for a long time. Not for a very long time ...
