Henna'd my hair today. A few years ago I asked Tumblr how to rehab my hair and I'm happy to say the results are stunning. Thx Tumblr.

In a shocking revelation, turns out I apparently have wavy hair (presumably 2A or 2B)
Funnily enough, I only noticed I have wavy hair because my friend who helped bleach it said it curled up into ringlets at the back of my head;
that was a few weeks ago and now I’m trying to experiment and maybe give myself loose curls for Christmas
Aside from the jokes that not even my hair is straight, uh, do you folks have some tips?
I read up on the Curly Girl Method and its variation the Wavy Girl Method; I want to experiment with that and with enhancing my natural waves, if possible to the point of loose curls
What I’m particularly interested in is: if I twist my hair up or put in curlers, how do I make sure I don’t accidentally wrap/ twist against the natural waves? I would like to use curlers/ rollers to support/ protect and enhance the waves in my hair
Some facts about me, since I don’t know who this post will reach:
I’m a white European,
chin-length haircut,
my hair is currently bleached & dyed green,
I use they/them,
I’m not in a habit of washing my hair more than twice a week,
I generally struggle to build habits in the first place and too many steps to a process isn’t my jam
I work on building a proper hair care routine again though (I used to use conditioner and hair masks (deep condition) twice-thrice per week but I dropped that routine a while ago)
So, if I twist my hair up or put in curlers, how do I make sure I don’t accidentally wrap/ twist against the natural waves?
EDIT to clarify here as well: I do not intend to use heat on my hair; I don’t even own a hair dryer and I refuse to buy one – I am also not looking for a general “how to”, I am figuring things out, thank you very much.

My favorite curly hair tips
Go to a curly hair specialist to get it cut. Just do
sleep in a bonnet
wash as often as you need to keep your scalp from itching and as rarely as you need to keep your ends soft. The actual number is between you and your god
if you don’t have the energy to detangle or wash or if you’re sick or something? There’s nothing morally wrong about having tangled hair. Take the time you need, and then spend some quality time with your conditioner and wide toothed comb
if you have the means, invest in your hair. Find a cut, color, and products that fit your hair and schedule and effort. It’s worth it.
It’s been a long, long time since I updated here, and in that time, I’ve learned to love my hair, which I used to think was unruly and upsetting. It’s a long road to body positivity, but at least I love my hair

I’m going on a hair journey. For like a year now, I’ve hated my hair. It’s dry, and damaged from over a decade of blow drying and straightening… a lot of the time with no heat protector.
I’ve never really known how to take care of my hair. I had straight hair until puberty. And then I got a haircut, and my hair has been curly ever since. It would always get super frizzy and puffy and I hated and didn’t know how to fix it. So I straightened it. It would still frizz sometimes, but not as much, and it didn’t look as… unkempt frizzy while straight as it did frizzy curly. But even straight now, it doesn’t look good. It looks dry and puffy, be shiny and sleek, and then start frizzing before I even get my stuff put back.
I started letting my air dry, but it’s still really dry.
I’ve decided to try the curly girl method. I have wavy/curly hair and I want to embrace them and make them look good. It’s been a few days, but I can see a subtle difference already. I also need to get a hair fit, to get rid of the dead ends and to help amp the curls.
I’m excited to see where my hair will be in a few months.

Maintaining my hair sucks. I have naturally wavy hair (2c) but I don't really take care of it like I should because I'm lazy and also cheap.
The college student depressed brokenness is real.
However I'm about to take a gap semester and I'm trying to self improve or whatever. Products are expensive and I fully don't know what to use. I've started doing some research- mostly because it's humid af rn and I look like a q-tip.
Also im allergic to avocados and so much of these products use avocado oil I'm just :/
If anyone has recommendations or advice about hair stuff it would be super appreciated

My counsellor recommended I found out what habits are common by taking surveys, so I'm making some polls.

3ヶ月ほど前、curly girl methodなるものに出会った。
縮毛矯正をかれこれもう10年以上かけ続けてきた。
さすがに飽きてきたのと、ある程度維持費もかかるし、いつまでこれをし続けるんだろう、やめたら「美」を手放すことになるのだろうかという不安を感じるようになってきた。46歳。
そこで「地毛を活かす」という思想に出会う。今まで考えもしなかった思想だから、自分には合わないんじゃないか?という不安を感じつつ、やってみたくなる。そうするともう、止まらない。いろんなスタイリング剤(カーリーヘア用の)を探し始めるようになった。
1年に3〜4回かけていた縮毛矯正も、ストップした。だんだんと根元が伸びてきて、でも髪の毛の下半分(以上)はまだストレートが残ってる。美容師さん曰く、私の髪は「丈夫なくせ毛」。髪の毛は細くはない。うん、おさまらない。笑
まずはこのストレートが伸びるまでのスタイリングを試行錯誤しながら、伸ばしていく。
現状、ヘアクリームがとても良い仕事をしている。「洗い流さないトリートメント」の表記の、Mマーク。洗髪後、濡れたままの髪に揉み込んで、ホホバオイルもその上から少量つける。ドライヤーで乾かして寝る。そうすると、翌日はアホ毛は出ない。
ちょっと重めになるけど、アホ毛がないだけで十分!
朝のスタイリングはまだまだ試行錯誤中。襟足ははねるのとストレート部分がパキッとなりやすいので、アイロンを使ってみたり。
早くもっと伸びてほしいなぁ。
