    Default Straight and Silky Thread

    I was browsing and I noticed different kind of threads: curly, blondes, ...

    But do we have a straight hair thread? I was looking for this since I discovered I am really a 1a.

    Thanks

    I don't believe we do but I'd like one. My hair is stick straight, and straight hair has benefits and liabilities. I find it more difficult to bun, for example, at BSL, which I've always been. It just slips out, unless very firmly pinned, unlike my partner's hair, very curly, that can simply be tied in a knot, sort of, and stay up all by itself. Your circlet braid is so beautiful, it looks very precise, I don't think I could do it to myself.

    I have straight hair, with just a bit of a wave with the right cut. I just found out this week that I have two half sisters, both of which have crazy curly hair. When I was complaining to them about how much I wished that I had their curls, they both told me they would rather have my straight hair. So, there ya go!
    Change is the only constant.

    Does anyone have a good title?
    Because I want to start one, but I'm not that skilled with the English language

    Well, I guess we have it now, right? This is it?

    1a here. straight, fine, thin, slick. Stringy too, if I leave it down. Needs combing or brushing every few minutes or it turns into what my mom called "rat tails". ugh.

    Fairytale ends are my friend... with them I can wrap my hair up and the ends will tuck in rather nicely. Blunt cut doesn't work for me, the hair does like paint-brush-bristles, the ends stick out and won't tuck.

    When it's properly long my hair is straight. As it is there is a bit of a wave sometimes, mostly due to layers.

    But look how quickly we can gain length! No curls to eat it up.
    Finally at knee, with a new quest for thick ends!

    Okay, if this is the straight hair thread, we have to change to title If anyone has ideas, shoot.

    I think I'm a 1a, this is my hair, freshly washed, uncombed:


    I have more problems with having fine strands of hair, than having straight hair. I'm learning to accept that it won't curl,whatever I try
