11 Problems Only Girls With Curly Hair Will Understand

11. Straighteners That Work On Your Hair Haven't Been Invented Yet

You've considered having your hair chemically straightened just so you can see what you'd really look like with truly straight hair, but your family and friends have talked you out of it time and time again. Which is understandable, because you are incredibly lucky to have such perfect hair coils. However, on the days where you've found yourself at wits end trying to untangle the matted bits at the nape of your neck, you've tried to straightening it with straighteners just to see if your life would be made any easier. It isn't. Not only does it take an hour to part your hair into manageable sections, another ten hours to straighten each bit perfectly, and yet another hour to fix it all in place with serum and hairspray, your hair seems to naturally want to betray you. It always ends up curling back into it's natural afro-like state before the day is over. There appears to be no electrical machine in the world fit for truly straightening your hair.
