Curls for days.

If you have curly hair you may already know everyday is another challenge. Lately it has been hot and muggy out which makes my curly crazy hair extra impossible to keep up with.

These are some daily occurrences that I have happened way too many times.

1. Humidity

Yes curly hair's worst enemy. So most of us curly haired people can not stand the summer.


2. Dry it Straight

When people with straight hair just tell you to dry your hair straight.

I am sorry what ? That is not possible. It is not like going to bed with braided hair and waking up with wavy hair.

3. Hair brushes

We all have been there at least once where your hair isn't having it.

It would probably take you a long while to detangle your brush out of your hair.


4. Conditioner is Key

Sometimes you feel like you use half a bottle in one wash.


5. Rain

When it rain can just ruin your hair in a split second.


6. WOW! You have so much hair

Having to explain that the natural volume of your hair just makes it look 10x bigger than it actually is.

7. As a child being compared to a broom or a mop. Always made you wish you had straight hair.

9. Shampoo commercials

When you watch commercials that advertise shampoo for curly hair , but the hair model doesn't even have curly hair….

10. The question

Every time you answer the question "how long does it take to straighten your hair" Your answer always makes you think why do you even bother straightening your hair.

11. The Unknown

You never know how your hair is going to end up when you air dry.

12. Taming

It takes a lot of time and patience to maintain curly hair and sometimes it includes putting a lot gunk in your hair.

13. Please do not touch

Some people are just fascinated by curly hair but as I said before it takes a lot to maintain it , therefore please do not touch!

13.Badass

We can all admit that having curly hair automatically makes you a bad ass.

Curly hair is just a blessing in disguise. Our hair reflects how bouncy and fun we can be.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
