Amanda the Great by Amanda El-Dweek for November 09, 2022

Learn to live with what you have. You will be happier.

tsk … change that phone

Oh, the humidity?

Must be part cat – same behavior when it comes to pictures being taken.

My hair won’t hold a curl either. It will keep a wave if I sleep in wet braids, but that just looks weird and unnatural the next day. Nice Millennium Falcon shirt!

LOL! I have the same, fat finger problem. too!

Life is just not fair!

Like take the picture of a cat.

I use to have hair like yours Amanda. Of course it was permed because it’s stick straight naturally except for a wave or two at the bottom.

Now I look at pics of me then and wonder what the heck I was thinking, but it was the style. I think as long as it’s healthy let it be what it wants to be. It makes us all unique! That said, I still hate my hair as I’m starting to lose it on top. Considering Rogaine but I’ve heard mixed results. Anyone have an opinion about it?

I had no idea pcos could cause curl loss. Hair loss yes! Until you mentioned it I could not imagine what was going on. Well, if it’s not one thing… one more reason to love the Amanda The Great! Infinite info. Sometimes useful!

I used to wish for straight hair when I was younger. Curly hair gets tangles and it hurts to brush them out. There are no cool hairstyles that you can have by having different lengths of hair on different parts of your head. Stupid little tiny curls like little Orphan Annie if your hair is too short and it will get in your eyes and ears and mouth if it isn’t long enough to be tied back in some way. I like my curly hair now but I braid it almost always – the one cool thing about my hair is that it doesn’t need an elastic to stay in a braid.

With me, it’s more like, “It’s smooth, and shiny, and straight! Oh, shoot. The humidity.”

Old English Sheepdog is the hair style I’ve sported my entire life, Mo matter what I do, it lands in my eyes, and is scraggly everywhere else.
