Curly-haired people unite! It took me forever to learn how to manage mine so it looks nice curly/wavy and not just frizzy. It's so much easier to let it be curly than try to make it straight.

Rock on! I love it when a character encourages someone to have self-confidence!

I used to dislike my hair too - it's not super curly (only wavy) but it's super super thick and poufy and if I don't manage it it kind of consumes my head. I was jealous of people who had more manageable hair. But then I kind of realized that a lot of people hate their "thin, boring, etc." hair and everyone thought the grass was greener on the other side...we should all learn to embrace our features and make them as awesome as possible instead of fighting against them. /philosophical

My hair's curly, but I also usually keep my hair super short (like one inch short), so a lot of my co-workers forget it's curly until it's growing out. XD

Means I get a lot of, "Wait... your hair's curly?" comments when it starts going wild again.

It also took me until I was in my twenties to realize that brushing it/etc was what was giving me that horrid puffball type look, so now I just put in some leave-in condition/smoother and let it dry on it's own/do it's own thing.

Curly hair: showing that being lazy and just letting your hair do its own thing actually works out pretty well. :p

Glad it's true for you, but oh how I wish my curly hair worked that way. If I leave it alone, it becomes a frizzy mess.

[ginainthekingsroad]

Yep, I've rocked the pixie for three years now and you can hardly tell it's more than wavy. But if that shit grows past my chin, I'll have ringlets. It also completely changed texture (and color) during puberty.

I'm not a huge fan of River but her hair is fabulous and Alex is a damn gorgeous woman. Be proud of your badass hair.

[comma_chameleon]

I love Alex. I hope I look as half as fabulous as her when I grow up. says the thirty year old woman

Good for you, OP!! Rock it. I wish I could figure out how to make my curly/wavy hair look good instead of frizzy though. I'm on the verge of giving in and straightening it...

[(Anonymous)]

Condition, condition, condition, and only brush it while it's wet. When it's dry, stick to finger-combing it. I haven't had any frizz problems since I started doing that.

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT: Thanks for replying but I do all that. Still incredibly frizzy. I'm considering some form of deep repairing conditioning at a salon... If that doesn't help, I'm at a loss.

[electromouse]

I have really curly (and long) hair, so what works for me is combing it while it's wet and with conditioner. After that, applying a little bit of water and letting the hair conditioner do its magic. After wash, I use Pantene Pro-V cream for curls and some silicon to keep it down. Depending on how big the your curls are, you can shape them with your fingers.

I do this thing where I shape four or five really thick curls with my fingers (after applying the cream and while it's wet, that is), and let them be until they are completely dry. After that, I split the curls into as many as I want.

I don't touch my hair at all until the next wash (3 or 4 days later because effort), so no combing or anything. That will only ruin your curls. ;(

[comma_chameleon]

I also find that only washing it (and by this I mean using shampoo) every three or four days cuts down on how dry/frizzy my hair gets too. I still get it wet in the shower and put in a tiny dab of smoother/leave-in conditioner every day, but I don't wash it.

It'll probably take a bit for your hair to get used to it (ie it might look a little limp/oily initially) but I found that my hair adjusted pretty quickly to not being dried out daily from shampoo.

[elialshadowpine]

One of my exes has extremely curly hair. The trick that he found worked was to use hairspray immediately after showering, while his hair was still wet. Instead of frizzing up, it would come out in beautiful almost-Grecian ringlets. As I recall, he didn't have to use a lot. Might be worth a try?

Alex Kingston did the same for me when she was on ER. She's a fabulous woman in every way and she has fabulous hair and how could I not embrace my curls once I learned that? She's also inspired me to be a much more forgiving person and also to never give up. She's just a truly amazing and wonderful human being in every way <3

River's (well, Alex's) hair is gorgeous!

[(Anonymous)]

This.

Yesterday it was so humid I might as well have dyed my hair red to ride through the glen, firing arrows into the sunset.

[(Anonymous)]

Good for you! I started to love mine more since watching Johnathan Creek, so I know how you feel =)

[tabaqui]

I remember this actress from the show ER, and she always looked *so hot* with her curly hair. Loved her a ton.

[(Anonymous)]

+1! And also in "Moll Flanders".

[(Anonymous)]

I luv it when a character helps a person feel better about themselves. :) It's an awesome experience.

[(Anonymous)]

Alex Kingston is so hot!

I don't have curly hair myself, but I understand that curly hair needs a different treatment than straight hair, and many people don't know this and hence are frustrated with their curls. :(

<3 Alex Kingston

Curly hair is a wonderful thing.
