Curly hair or straight?

I've got pictures of my hair on my profile - one is natural curls and in the other I've straightened it. I like my hair straight, but my mum hates it and says it looks out of condition. I've got some GHDs which are fab, but I'm not sure which look suits me best. Hoping for some opinions. Obviously I can alternate too :)

Curly! Looks natural and really suits you.

what I would give for wonderful curls like that! Grin

Thanks erowid - the curly look would definitely save me time in the mornings, too. It takes about an hour and a half to straighten it, but curly is just scrunch and go (no hairdryer involved). I have always yearned for glossy straight hair though!

Always the way. I would love curls but my hair just won't hold them. Tried a perm once and that only lasted 2 months.

It looks good straight and I would straighten it every now and again if you're going out or special occasions but for daily wear, your curls look great!

Curly for sure, really suits you are looks so natural and lovely.

Thank you - will get some curl creme and scrunch it tomorrow. Probably less damaging than trying to straighten every day too.

I'm the same as you - naturally curly but love how it looks straight. You really suit both (as do I thankfully, I just yearn for glossy straight hair too!). I wear it curly day to day and straighten it for special occasions or big nights - makes it feel more 'special'

90 minutes is a hell of a lot of time to be saving each morning - think of the lie-ins!!

That is true, I do like a lie in! I just never feel properly 'groomed' with it curly.
