I've been growing out my virgin colour for a bit over 2 years now.
I hate the dye-line, so I hacked off my bsl blond hair to chin length and dyed it brown. I just kept trimming until it was all virgin and then started growing.
My hair is *extremely* awkward at medium lengths. The canopy is ringlet curly, but very fine, so the curl kind of "collapses." The underside is thicker, darker, and straighter.
As a result, until it all hits a certain length, the canopy looks like a kinky-frizzy-puffy mess, and the underlength gives a real mullet appearance. At a magical length (approx mid-back) the weight of the canopy pulls the curl into a wave, and it all just *hangs* nicely.
This week, I can FINALLY air dry my hair and have it not look like a complete disaster. I've been wearing my hair up for 2 years because the only way to look good is heat styling or full velcro rollers, which just take too long.
I still need to roller my bangs, but otherwise this is air-dried hair:cheese::
