You both got valid points here. I think we got somewhat lost in the void between LHC and NC. Obviously the standard LHC advice doesn't always apply well for curlies - like updo's and such. The hairtyping is not only different, but also not taking under consideration the fact that hair can be seemingly wavy but actually have weak curl formation (like squigglyflop posted not so long ago, with the bottom few inches roll into spiral shape while her hair looked really straight overall).
Curls are capricious and can be very easily disturbed and shaped into different things. Length, brushing, moisture (or lack of thereof), products left in after washing, which way the hair was done while drying can make all the difference in the world. All my length shots look different (to me at least). And btw, in my hairtyping picture my hair was 6" or so shorter, but the curls are MUCH less tight than in the most recent one. So which one is true?
And how come everybody that posts on NC have the most perfect curls?!
