In Czech Republic, I don't think they encounter many people with curly hair...and with as much as we have. At least in the US the population is diverse enough that they do. I used to pay a pretty penny for the stylist I saw in the US, but at least she knew what to do with my curly mop.

My old stylist used to occasionally dry my hair straight, but got to the point where it was too difficult to manage. My hair grew curlier in my middle age, for some reason. I want to embrace them. It is a shame that others see them as almost "problematic". When cut and styled right, such curls are lovely. Don't you think?

I really want my hair done before my trip. It's not looking that great right now.
