Why not trying to enjoy your naturally curly hair instead of fighting
it--that might be a lot easier. Going against the grain is always
the hardest (and most expensive) thing to do when it comes to your
hair, in my opinion, whether it be straightening curly hair or
perming straight hair. (Both of these things are also INCREDIBLY
damaging to your hair as well, no matter what your stylist tells
you...) Try visiting:

Or buy Lorraine Massey's book, Curly Girl:
