How do I achieve thick, straight, and shiny hair? Right now my hair is very dry, dead, poofy, fine, and a yucky mix between wavy and straight. How do I add volume and make my hair more straight?

#3 was really rhetorical. You can't hate what your hair is and simultaneously wish for it to be moreso.

You. Have. Curly. Hair.

2 things:

If you could instantly cancel one social norm, what would it be?

Then, you can go about finding ways to straighten it, otherwise, you'll just hate that too

It you answered ‘curly’ to question #1

what does your hair look like after you wash it?

Is it ok if I wear a bonnet as a person with straight hair? I used to have curly hair, but later on in life I got it treated, I’m not black, but my hair keeps getting frizzy every morning so I am considering it. Is it cultural appropriation?

If you answered ‘dry’ to question #2 this is why your hair looks the way you describe it.

OK, 3 things

When do you detangle/brush it?

How old is planet Earth? Is it 4.5 billion years old or 6,000 years old?

Stop brushing your hair dry and treat it the way curly hair needs to be treated, with moisture, cool water, dignity and respect.

How do you claim to have ‘poofy’ hair and yet still wish to add volume?
