Curly hair

I have quite a complicated relationship with my hair. When I was a teenager I absolutely loathed it for being so curly and thick. In my early twenties I had learnt to grudgingly accept it - and by now I try to work with it, not against it. I love to straighten it, not necessarily poker straight but just wavy enough to take the curl out of it. I think it works better long than short from looking back at various photos from over the years, even though it feels so heavy and thick. But I also style it more than I used to, with products and also with top knots, plaits and pony tails, and I love dying it red/brown. Or I'm happy to let the curls run wild and pop on a hat, and I realise lots of women wish they had thick hair like mine. Any tips/styles from other curly haired ladies gratefully received!

Hey! You've lovely hair! for my curly hair I use several products- it really depends on the day and the weather as my hair has a mind of its own. But I really love Aveda's Be Curly Style Prep as well as their curl enhancer. Sometimes I like using a curl styling foam or a simple hair mayonnaise and I make little ringlets with my fingers.
