CURLY hair

[CatyX]

I have really curly hair and recently I've been wanting to do somehting with it as it is always tied up in a ponytail the same way everyday- YAWN! So I was thinking is it possible to go to the hairdresses and have them relax it a bit so the curl drops a bit but is still curls, and if there is, is there a proper name for it?

Thanks.

im pretty sure ive heard of people doing that... i think its just called a relaxer? make sure you tell the hairdresser EXACTLY what you want though, they can figure it out if you cant find the right name.

I always thought that just made it straight, guess I could do that then have it permed or something? I don't know, I'm a little hair-dresser phobic.

Thanks though!

I got my hair realaxed and it didn't go straight, cause my hair is so darned curly.  It all depeneds on your hair type.  Talk to your hairdresser about it, they'd have some helpful hints before you put chemicals in your hair.

Thanks, how curly did it stay?

my hiar was also some what over processed, but when i don't put anything into is and comb it instead of brushing, i can still get the odd ringlets.  It's got nice wave to it now though
