I need help with my hair?

[Han-a-land]

It's always naturally curly, and has been since I hit puberty. But the under layer is ALWAYS straighter than the rest of it. The top drys curly after a shower or lake day, but the under side stays wave or just plain straight. Can anyone help me on what to do?

Well what are you wanting to do? Do you want it all straight or wavy or all curly? Are they tight curls on the top layer or somewhat loose curls? That might make a difference on which direction you go. I can give you some advice as to technique and products to use. Are you in the US? I have a similar issue. I don't have my layers different but they are all wavy if I don't style them. Doing loose curlers works for me just about as well as straightening my hair so it is what I am feeling that day.

I'm trying to make it all curly. They are loose curls mostly. Tbh, kind of reminds me of Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter. I am in the US. I have a LOT of layers, and besides a trim about 3 times a year, I cut my own hair.

Just about to start class but the second I am done I will respond with some good products to help and also some techniques to style because I do the loose curl look often. Just looked at your pic and your hair color is awesome. I love it. Be back with you shortly. 💜

Alright so one trick is when you condition in the shower take a comb that has wide teeth. Put conditioner in and while it is sitting comb through. The detangles everything. When you get out section off your hair into like 4-5 sections. You can get a heat protectant oil and apply to first section. Then pull it straight. Don't pull too hard but firm enough. When it is tight and straight use hairdryer on cool or medium until dry. Go to next section and repeat. That will give you the loose curl look. Hope this helps.

Talk to a professional hairdresser if you want everything to be straight your hair

Good point but thinks she wants to be able to do it at home too. If she is naturally curly she will have to learn how.

😩 I wish! It's so much work to take care of, but SO pretty!

guess that's a choice to suffer for beauty. Curls is a lot of work.

Keep very short hair, or have it straightened
