My natural hair...??!!!?

okay, so i've never died or highlighted my hair or anything, and its been the same ashy dirty blonde all my life.

for the last three years however, i usually about 5 times a week) blow dry my hair every night and then use a straightner to touch up in the mornings before school.

my natural hair isnt poofy, but the ends sort of swish curl. the only thing that REALLY bugs me about my natural hair is that my side bangs curl out and it looks SOOOO bad!

i like my natural hair only because it feels healthier and feels a little more...well, natural, but when i wear it to school like that, i see all of those girls with PERFECTLY straight hair thats gorgeous and i totally regret not drying and straightening it.

what should i do to school and stuff???!!!

plus, i have good skin only a few times a month (acne sucks), so i like to do my hair extra nice to make up for the acne...is that the wrong thing to do?

PLEASE HELP!!!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with your natural hair! Even if you don't blowdry or straighten it, it'll be fine. Just because everyone else has the same straight, dyed hairstyle doesn't mean that it would look good on you. In fact, your natural hair will make you unique. You'll never have to worry about finding the best color for your complexion - you've already go it! Embrace your beauty!

Shampoo dries out hair because most ot them have a high concentration of sodium laureth sulfate (salt). You may have naturally wavy hair that you are brushing and shampooing the waves out of. Try not using shampoo (just massage your scalp with conditioner to clean it) and putting gel in wet hair. This is not unhygenic- my hair has become less oily and dandruffy since I quit shampoo. Eventually your hair may turn wavy naturally! This looks alot better than boring straight hair. This takes 2-4 weeks to begin working.

1st of all...acne is a whole other situation...for that i would use velocity from mary kay products...i have just recentle 1st put highlights in my hair and out pink tips on the ends...my hair is sandy blonde and i absolutely love it...i think you should do something jurastic...maybe u could dye your whole head brown and put in blonde highlight...layer it and cut it...not sure

I used to go through this same problem a few years ago, when I moved to a new school where it seemed like every girl straightened her hair every day. The ends of my hair kind of curled out too, but that was when I had my hair all one length. After I got layers that didn't show up as much.

But getting my hair cut like that didn't stop me from wanting to straighten it every day for school until one day I was sitting next to these girls who were playing with someone's hair. And when one of them pulled it by mistake a huge chunk fell out! But it looked perfectly silky and straight so I was wondering how it could have gotten so damaged. Then some of her friends told her not to worry, that it happens to them too. After that I decided that the short-term benefits of straightening my hair didn't equal the long-term damage it would cause.

By the way, I've noticed that most of those girls don't straighten their hair anymore, and I think it looks great. Maybe try scrunching it or blow drying once in awhile. Definitely think about getting a layered haircut that would make it look nice without having to do too much every morning.

About your acne, I wouldn't worry about it too much. People tend to notice their own flaws magnified by like 100 when in actuality others pay more attention to other features, like eyes and a great smile.

Hope I helped!

Taking care of yourself is the right thing to do....What makes you feel beautiful shines through We all have little things we don't like about ourselves.....And good things like your hair......Dirty ash blonde hair looks so hot highlighted just lightly all over...........Mine is that color and I highlight it ......just enough to gives it some life and shine......I take relay good care of it and get it trimmed a lot..... But it will get Poofy too......So after I blow mine out as smooth as I can.... I flat iron the ends......be sure and have a really good hair cut....so that it lays nicely....Us blondes can have all the fun...especially us natural ones........................:)
