Wurly and Curly thread!!!

[lapushka]

Hello wurly/curlies! Just a newbie chiming in to say hello and that I am happy to be here in this beautiful community with such amazing inspirational hair. I'm growing my hair out from an inverted chin-length bob, as of the middle of last year (I can't remember exactly when my last trip to the salon was, June? July? August? 2015. I don't plan on ever going back). Sorry I don't have a picture from the back yet but here you can get a sense of what I'm working with: http://imgur.com/u5O3MOk

You can really see where the box dye ends and the henna/indigo begins. I'm about at collarbone length atm with it curly but the front pieces reach APL when stretched. I just recently discovered the wonders of jojoba and apricot kernal oil and I generally follow the LOC method (except with gel instead of cream, especially in these humid warm days now.

You've got pretty wurls! And the dye demarcation isn't bad at all, IMO. But we always think it's worse than it is, don't we?

Hi! I'm a wavy, wurls, sometimes a little curly! I think I have every pattern between 1b-3a... Hah! It's mostly 2c(/3a) on the top, though, and the underlying hair in my nape is 1c on a good day. (On the day before wash day, it's pretty much stick straight...)

Still trying to figure out the best routine and products for my hair. This, I've realized, will take some time...

Oh yeah. I had moments of mixed textures (straight/waves/big/medium/mini curls) on WO. But that's without product, they're even on CO. Oh, and when short in bob on shampoo no condish they're straight. So like wtf... Btw that thread is so active, I can't keep up with reading!

Thank you!

Yes, it's not really that bad but this picture, taken in direct sunlight, made me actually see it for the first time! lol

I have been offline a bit as I am busy with family, Grandkids etc, but have been peeking in for a minute in free moments.

Welcome to all the newbies

I am loving all your pics....and Quixii

I continue to have new growth which = curls from crown to hemline in humid air that defy definition, but I am fine with that
I throw it up in a banana clip, pony, or bun it.

In drier air I have a slight wave and some curling of the hemline.

I am happy to be at goal and one length; getting plenty of wurls and texture

I saw a woman my age with a head full of perfect chin length curls tonight at dinner out

I complimented her on my way out and asked if she did the CG method; she hadn't heard of it.
So I told her briefly about it, but whatever she is doing is working great!

You rarely see such curls here; there are only 2 other young girls like her with perfect curls at our Church, and another young woman...but she has a problem with frizz IMHO

It was cool to see!

I seriously love this thread. As a curly woman, I don't feel like I see enough really long curly hair. It's a bit discouraging at times. I don't think I've ever even seen a woman in person with really long curls.

Also..

Quixii, Your hair is beautiful!
