I Hated My Curly Hair #Shorts

Fernanda 1972: Hair stylists also make women with curly hair hate their hair. They keep asking, ‘Do you want to straighten your hair?’ they never ask women with straight hair if they want to curl their hair. It’s so wrong.

Debolina Biswas: I think in college or after college everyone stopped giving a shit what world thinks and that's important

Stacie Murray: Love it! Yes I HATED my curly hair. Now as a hairstylist, people ask me what’s in- and I honestly say whatever your hair naturally does is in: don’t fight it, enhance it!

The Blyss Catalyst: And then there’s me who grew up obsessed with gorgeous curly hair exactly like yours, desperately wishing I’d been naturally blessed with it. Oh us silly humans can never be pleased, always lusting after what we don’t have... ‍♀️

katsu: And now everyone is like “oh my god I want curly hair!!” ‍♀️

J L: Me too girl! I was a frizzy mess. The curly community changed my life. You were my first curly girl who’s hair was very similar to mine and I ended letting it grow down to my butt and worked my curls which was so much easier than the straightening, which by the way never stayed straight due to humidity.

Life Is To Live: Girls with a) straight long hair:"I wanted curly hair" b) curly locks:"I want straight long hair" Me with bald head: "I want hair"

Kirsten Temple: I went through the same thing. It’s not that I got bullied for having curly hair, it was more that curly hair wasn’t “in” and you could only really be “popular” if you straightened your hair like the “cool girls” lol. But I eventually embraced it like you did and now I honestly think I look weird if I don’t wear it curly haha! Everyone and every hair type is beautiful! ❤️

Frances: I have 4c hair and I got mad at my mum cuz she made go natural at 8 and gave away my relaxers, I thought my afro hair was ugly and hard to maintain. But thanks to people like you embracing their curly to coily hair, I've learned to love my hair. But my hair still refuses to grow

R M: Literally same! In high school I would always straighten my hair and would feel like my natural hair isn't pretty enough. Was so insecure of it and often had people make fun of it. In university i started to learn how to take care of my curls and i get loads of compliments! Haven't straightened my hair in ages. Curls are beautiful ❤️

Benign Username: “If your hair grows that way it’s probably to frame your face. I know what im doing.“ -God

Lilly Wants Her Anchovy Pizza: Honestly so true. In school I was ashamed of my hair. Now I'm 21 and trying to grow it out again because of the damage I put it through. Sometimes I wanna chop it all off because of the maintenance but curly hair is a part of me. I can't imagine it any other way now.

Maddie Holland: omg i needed to hear this i feel in that exact same position no lie it’s amazing to hear that thank you! xx

Curly Proverbz: Meanwhile whenever I straighten my hair within a day I want my curls back

Random person294: When I would straighten my hair I would get alot of complements from friends and family but when i wore it natural ppl would always comment on my frizz and say “ you should straighten your hair, it looks way prettier on you” and it made me feels sad bc I didn’t have a straightener at my house I used someone else. But ive always liked my curly hair and thats what matters.

Lora Beth T: It took me until age 37 to embrace my hair texture- I use to literally burn it up every time I went out in public! At least Covid19 quarantine helped me not feel like I needed makeup and hair done every day and I’ve learned a lot about myself by being “natural” ‍♀️

Audrey White: Oh yeah girl, own it! I'm still on my curly hair journey trying to figure out my hair and what products and cut make it look the best

Bri Bango: Gorgeous curls! I’m a curly headed hair dresser, it breaks my heart hearing the salon stories in these comments. We’re not all bad I promise ❤️ took me years to find my hairdresser, she enjoys doing my type of hair, she listens, and understands what I’m asking for. I’ve dealt with a lot of stylists that huff and puff when they find out how thick my hair is ‍♀️ like it’s gonna be soOoOo much work. I say to that “Wrong profession sweetie!” Not mention my hair is actually really easy to deal with, it does what you want it to do, there’s just a lot of it.

Matthew Kuchinski: Your hair is so amazing! And you are a truly beautiful woman.

Miss Tee: I was the same way and it took me years to finally accept it. It’s ok not to have hair like the majority out there. It’s ok to stand out and embrace what you were born with. It’s beautiful

Aarya Iyer: I m exactly at the same place as u were once!!! I just straightened my hair n now m going to stop doing it n embrace my curls!!! ❤

AnxiousNel: Yes I can totally relate! I would have my mom straighten my hair every week until I learned how to do it myself and if there was the slightest wave or curl in it i would have anxiety and think people would notice that tiny wave. eventually i started straightening it less and wearing it more messy and even wearing my natural frizzy curls I still straighten it every now and then just because I like it but I dont freak out about it like I used to

jess Luiten: I can relate!! 100% same thing! Get it girl

Sandra LeQualque: Thank you for sharing. I was exactly like you. Flat ironing my long curly locks. It took almost 2 grueling hours.. Then the moment rain and humidity hit I was a frizzy mess. The weather dictated my life. I finally let my curls out and realized how beautiful my long locks were. Sure it's upkeep but it's my own natural beauty and people love MY hair and so do I

Art Monarchia: 2021, I'm happy to see you are pleased with your beautiful natural hair. I was built a little different in school. "I was a high-class Petty." When girl's came after my hair I would tell them that's a personal problem. Untill this day I will knock someone's hands away from my hair. I am not friendly at all when it comes to my hair. I'm just saying.

J H: This is literally my story minus the YouTube part. I also started wearing my hair curly when I started Uni and I love my hair now. It’s still a pain in the ass to take care of half the time but I just stopped giving a shit about what people thought of my hair. ‍♀️

Melisa Palmorn: Can totally relate!!!! I embrace my curls now but I was like you, nobody looked like me. I still feel like when its a hot mess others compliment me and I’m like “okay”‍♀️ I’ve learned to say “thank you”

It’s MiMi: I have a similar curl pattern and can’t wait to grow my hair that long. It’s up to my chin now because I cut most of the damage off but I know it’ll be worth it in the end. Might take 5 years though lol

S: Girl, I've always been fascinated with curly hair. Embrace what you have! The fullness is . Coming from a girl with stick straight hair. I've always wanted curly hair

Dean Hamouda: I'm pretty sure there's a lot of people who can relate to this. I know I do. Both of my brothers are blond with colored eyes...but its all good, I've accepted my looks.

Maria Ibanez: I feel you gurl.. actually, we have same experience, we learned growing up!

Lydia Joy Stuart: I can totally relate to this! I remember my mom and dad not realizing I had curly hair so every Sunday morning especially they'd both ask me "have you brushed your hair" literally 5 minutes after brushing my hair. But it look frizzy and well unbrushed. If only we knew what we know now.

Jordan Gann: I have naturally blonde and straight hair, I was so jealous of my sisters curly hair and she was so jealous of mine, this is basic human psychology we all want what we don't have. FYI I think you're natural hair is gorgeous and doesn't necessarily need changing but whatever you're comfortable with.

Isha Aslam: Your hair is so amazing,I have been watching you for years, without your videos I wouldn’t ever get the chance to embrace my curls

Weirdest Weirdo: you go lovely! You are gorgeous and I am so happy you were able to embrace your natural beauty

ASK AUNTIE DEBBIE ASMR: The exact same thing happened to me. I'm 64 and I just started wearing my hair natural about 3 years ago and I love it!!!

Maham Cheema: Girl, your hair is beautiful, and to anyone reading this, never try and change anything about yourself unless it makes you happy.

Kathy Humphrey: I’m way way older than you and it’s taken me this many years to begin embracing my natural curly hair! Like you that flat iron calls my name and i give in but the freedom that comes from accepting how the Lord made me is just a wonderful thing! I’m happy for you being so much younger learning this! You are beautiful!

Herbmione: My favorite thing about this is, sometimes frizz can be normal. my hair is finally feeling so much better than before (not realizing I was doing the curly hair method) the biggest thing I get asked since it's healthy and still has friz, is how Im treating my frizz/getting rid of it. There is no getting rid of genetics I've simply learned to love my lil frizz because my hair is almost to where it used to be when I was a kid

Emma Cait: okay so relatable! i have really curly hair and i used to want to straighten it day after day. my mom would stop me, declaring it “ruined my natural hair” i would roll my eyes and stuff, but looking back i’m grateful she stopped me cuz my hair looks natural and healthy and i love it. your gorgeous! :)

I am just a Peanut: I used to hate my hair.. my aunt.. my sister also my grandma will give me laugh at me for my hair.. and now i think all of that in positive way.. maybe they are jealous of my hair .. and i used to straightened my hair at salon.. but now i love my hair.. i know how to take care of my hair now...because the more toxic people.. the more stronger i am..

Brian Thomason: I totally relate to this I used to hate my curly hair when I was a kid I would want him to cut every curl off but then when I got into college I found myself in a way. Learning to love myself and find the beauty in it was an amazing journey

tay: girl!!! I would die to have your hair. It is ✨ *stunning.* ✨ So so glad you are finally wearing it as it is because god made you with that beautiful hair!!!

Erika Lee: Your hair is gorgeous , im happy you learned to embrace yourself and your beauty. We always want what we don't have, thats everyone when they are younger...usually as we get older we learn. I can relate to this so much. Plus girl, kids are mean!

Naomi Mills: I experienced this exact thing with my hair. I didn't realize how perfect my curls were and that people literally pay for hair like mine lmao. I was also in college when I met my husband and he begged me to stop straightening my hair and wear it natural. It took a while for me to find the perfect products and routine for my curls but damn .....if I knew how to embracevmy hair when I was younger I would have been 1000% more attractive and I wouldn't have had such shitty self esteem issues smh.

Karen McJudgerson: Holy cow looks beautiful both ways. But I’m all about embracing natural hair

C C: I felt the same way about my curls. Now all of a sudden in 2021, everyone is getting perms to try to get the hair I spent years hating. Embrace yourselves for who you are everyone. It all comes back around.

Fatima Nera: I'm blonde, and my hair was never straight. Got waves and curls. My family use to try straightening my hair when I was little, but my nani stepped in and said "let the child be." God bless my nani.

britter the critter: i felt this! I hated my hair so much in middle school, so I permed it straight as a freshman in highschool. People always told me “you should straighten your hair more” so I did, and had MAJOR damage. Quarantine actually made me learn how to properly care and defined my curls. Now I’m in college, and have thick, curly hair that has all the love that it lost for so long

thashmi laxman: I totally relate to it. Now I'm in the journey of caring for my curls and a healthy hair

Le boredom: I have curly hair and so does my friend. She calls curly hair a curse. I call it a blessing. There's the occasional question asking if you curl your hair every morning but otherwise it's nice. It really depends on the generation you grew up in or place. Curly hair is easy and manageable for me since I had it almost my entire life and learned to love it. My friend got curly hair after a haircut in third grade. I don't know how that's possible but it happened. She doesn't even take care of it. I mean I don't either but it still looks decent when I leave it down.

lil: As a curly girl who had a scene phase I FEEL this. I felt I had to look the part of an edgy 2000s teen which meant I couldn’t have a curl in sight.

Kate Lo: I hated my straight hair! I kept curling it, until one day, like you, I got fed up and accepted my hair as it is, now I think it's so much better! It's good to change tho, once in a while I curl it

Donna Shaffery: I have super curly hair too. Im excited to see your routine on your curly hair. It looks absolutely beautiful!!

Samantha White: Her curls are gorgeous and it frames her face beautifully ❤️

Hadassah: It’s a journey, sometimes we go through that to learn that lesson that you have now... beautiful hair btw

Brandys Evans: Thank you. It took highlighting/flat ironing/curling my hair til it all broke off to discover a beautiful head of full, beachy wave hair. Its has been a struggle to feel beautiful without the blond. This spoke to me. Love it

Sim0sama: ♥️ I’m the same ahah People getting surprised and appreciate my straight hair didn’t help me a lot It’s complicated cause everyone love to be appreciated but we also like to like for who we really are

Karla Itzell: Oh girl sammeeee until I turn 20 and I was like you know what I should love my natural hair and just let it be Curly hair is beautiful! I let other peoples views of what "beauty" was control me until I started loving myself

antonetta: i relate sooo much! when i was younger i HATED my curly hair . adults would compliment my hair n i would say “i hate it” so i always wanted to straighten my hair so i could have straight n “tamed” hair. the more i grew up i realized how lucky i am to have hair that is different from others n started learning more about it. now i absolutely LOVE my hair. i am about to be 15 years old :))

jeon.withluv: I relate to you soooo much, I was raised the exact same way and always viewed my hair as ugly and messy

Stephanie Salan: My 2 year old daughter has very curly hair, I really hope she embraces it. I’ve done so much research on how to care for and style it. It’s so beautiful, I now LOVE curly hair. Thank you for videos like this!!

Mimi B: I was lucky enough to have (straight haired) friends who loved and envied my curls as a child. I think that helped, though I didn't know how to take care of my hair till much later.

2018 Hope: Gorgeous!!! Absolutely love the curls!!! I need to learn what I'm doing wrong cuz your hair looks so healthy and shiny!!! Mine....frizzy and dry

Hind Widad: Your curly hair is stunning! I was the same way. I would straighten my hair every two weeks. I had big beautiful curls and they flattened out over time due to the heat. My hair is still curly but not as before and I wish I can have those curls back. I wear my hair curly now and only get it straighten like once every 6 months or so.

mena mohamed: I hated my hair too! It was last year that I found out it had beautiful curlsI started taking care of it and I don't regret it,in our country always girls or boys with straight hair are complimented but us with curly hair are always made fun of ,but idc I love my hair

Tia me: That was so real.. I wanted straight blonde hair like everyone around me... all she was missing was on tv and media too.. and society wonders why people have self esteem issues same things happened to me.. age seems to be the thing that helps you embrace who you are.. Your hair is gorgeous by the way

Lori Frassinelli: I’m 53 and I just stopped fighting my curls. It’s so liberating!!

EmoRat: For a long time I wouldn't embrace my curls cause I always thought I looked ugly but after a while I tried out curly and fell in love and now I am more happy about me learning to love it then being beautiful it's definitely a journey but I'm glad I took it !

SummerVv: For me it was a different story. I never use to strengthen my hair when growing up, but what I did do was wear it in a bun. It never stopped until I hit high school.The only reason I stopped was because I believed or maybe it is true, but my hair was fading and becoming thinner cause of how tight I would wear it also I thought it’s getting to old, I can’t just keep coming to school looking the same.

Larry Hall: Man! I'm a guy and the same. Then when I went natural after high school my hair began to recede. Enjoy what you have, while you have it.

jnbg61584: Omg your curly hair is literal goals. I would love for my very loose curls to be like yours and not be frizzy. I’m sorry you didn’t love your hair then. People can be awful sometimes

Cheaky: Your natural hair is Absolutely Stunning. I was totally opposite, straight hair and using all different products to achieve what you have naturally. God blessed you with gorgeous hair!

Study with Jada: I wish my hair stayed that long when I was frying it off in middle school lol

Yvelyn Kyker: Yes same here!!! I used to HATE my curls but then I taught myself to love them and I’ve never looked back

Bendy Alien: Curly hair is beautiful in my opinion and so are you! Always love the way you look ❤️

Siya Gawande: Thank you for posting this your actually inspiring other girls.

Julliana Rodriguez: I can relate. Now I love my curly hair

viviana ♡: Same! I'm so proud of this generation and how they are embracing their curls! Our generation was OBSESSED with straightening our hair i woke up every morning at 6 am just to flat iron my hair. Cause our generation saw curly hair as messy. But i have been completely heat free for three years now! And i wouldn't change a thing. All my severe breakage from high school is gone already.

lillyfredrick1: I straightened my hair all through college, getting Brazilian blowouts and dying it blonde. Started wearing my hair curly again after college and stopped getting as much attention from other people. Now, on days when I straighten it, I get tons of attention and compliments from coworkers and friends all day long. What I take away from this is that people think my curly hair is ugly

SiMPLE : waw shes so pretty with curls. the straight hair looked boring

Safia Ihab: This happened to me so i can relate See my hair dried with this beautiful curls/waves then gradualy becomes straight even tho my hair isn t as curly now which is sad cuz i really loved my curls but girls would always tell me to straight it till i damaged it , that was only to feel accepted yet i wasn t , anyways m happy for u u r gorgeous like omg .. sorry my story may seem a little different but at the end of the day styling became an option not a necessity ❤️

Lacey Craig: Yes ikr! Exactly how I feel and felt my hair is so thick n long and curly plus the kinky frizzy and all that us women the struggle is real!!!!

Shannon Pasold: Even as a small child one of my favorite things about observing people was their hair! Still is.

Danielle C: Totally relatable!!! Love your curls!!!

Giavanna Farabaugh: it makes me so so sad to hear abt girls who don’t love their curls. i just started learning and loving them abt 2/3(?) years ago and i don’t even really feel comfortable with straight hair anymore and that used to be the only way i felt pretty. growing up a little chubby and taller than other girls, i felt that my big, thick, dark curly hair was another thing making me bigger and fatter than the other girls. Even my mom with the same hair as me was never taught how to take care of her hair so my curls were always dry brushed and thrown into a bun or pony tail. And ofc my hair wasn’t de tangled so my mom, aunt, and grandma would always threaten to cut my hair because i didn’t “take care of it” or “brush away the frizz” when in reality no body was taking care of my hair so it was getting treated like straight hair. i am so happy i know how to take care of my curls now and be confident in my curly hair. i’ve even inspired and helped my mom on her curly journey.

Ellanishas World: Omg this is so inspirational honey I felt the exact same way , as a young biracial girl growing up in high school I had extremely curly honey blonde hair I would absolutely hate it because people was very confused mostly everyone thought that I was white but when they looked at my hair they knew that I was not they could tell I was mixed and I would hate that once I got to the 10th grade I started straightening my hair every single day until it became extremely damaged thank you so much for your beautiful story and I agree 100% if I could go back I would and I would embrace my beautiful curls

Mariaelena Gonzalez: I just cut my hair by myself out of frustration. I pulled it forward and cut it straight across. Now it’s up to my waist but it’s layered all crooked. Thx for sharing

Darla Lemon: I grew up hating my curls too. I am now 25 and just a year ago I started to embrace my curls finally! I would always hide my hair in a bun or some other style.

Lilith baker: This is the most wholesome thing on the internet I've seen today and I'm living for it

Tofu: I have a best friend that has never used a blow dryer in her head once and she hates her natural curly hair, bruh. Like I want her curls lmaooo.

zoyaya: No one can relate more than me! I am starting my curly hair journey, wish me luck please!

Angela Schnelly: I always embraced my curls, but regardless of your hair type rock whatever you got! That confidence is what others will really notice and envy.

Lauren Roberts: I relate to this SO MUCH ❤️❤️❤️❤️

My Heart Will Stop in Joy: Same, girl, same. There was a point in my life where I just gave up on my hair, didn't help that I was depressed. And since I wear hijab when out I didn't have to worry about how I looked to people. so at home, i'd wear it in a very ugly bun... All day all year. For me, the only option was to start straightening it everyday, which seemed too exhausting. Now, at age 18, I'm finally embracing this hair and realizing how cute it is. I sometimes straighten it, but I don't do it out of hate to my curly hair. I do it to try new looks. We're all pretty the way we are!

Officer Meyer: I love my hair I just don't like the frizzy lol we have the same hair. And just about the same color lol

Elvi Rela: Same!! I always straightend them to feel pretty and now I just accept myself and I love my curls now

sayittomyface idareyou: My hair is exactly the same. I always wished for straight hair. But now today I see your hairstyle and I love it I'm going to wear my hair like that today !!

Moonsul: Me too. My hair was super damaged in highschool, the ends were super fried. Thank god that me and my sister mad a bet for straighting our hair for a summer mid highschool, I won and may hair had never felt much more healthier. I still do straighten every once in a while, but now I use amazing products from pattern to define my curls and keep my hair healthy.

Rudaina Safwat: I also hated it when I was younger but glad my parents didn't let me straighten once now as a teen I LOVE MY HAIR
