Big Hair

The past 3 1/2 months I've tried to do my hair like I normally do. Straight. I always use a straightener because I have a natural wave in my hair. Sounds awesome but it's actually awful. It's not enough to do anything cute with, and if I don't straighten it my hair looks terrible.
Well now I can't do it straight, it won't straighten all the way, it's driving me CRAZY! So I finally decided it was time to embrace my new hair type. This new type is thanks to having two children and nursing them.
The best part is that Dustin walked into the bathroom and said, "This is your hair?!" Yes, it's my hair, no curling irons, no perm, no back-combing, nothin. Just my hair, gel, and a diffuser. Then he says, "Maybe you could pull some of it back or something." haha (I think it was actually a little bigger than this when he first saw it) I'm not offended, I have BIG hair, and I can't get it to go straight. I can only imagine what one more child will do to my hair.....luckily we won't find out for quite some time. ha

Really cute. If you've got it, flaunt it! And if it is easy as well as cute, so much the better. I'm kind of jealous because I have the same hair type, and my hair never turns out looking that good. Consider it a blessing!

its awesome. sheesh, i wish i had that problem. i used to be able to make my hair look like that (when it was long) before kids and now it just looks like a dead rat on my head. ok, not that bad, but it is so thin and flat and wont even hold a curl! NOT helping with the whole growing my hair out process. so be grateful it didn't go the other way :)

Oh Alisha, you're so stinkin' cute! I love it.

PS- I've been just the opposite... my hair has gotten straighter with my girls... weird.

Honestly, I can't believe you only had to use gel and a diffuser. It looks way good!

I LOVE IT!!! My hair has LOST lots of its balanced curl I use to use all the time since having my 2 children so I suppose we have switched (maybe this 3rd one will change it back) who knows :) Love it though :)

I love it Alisha. It looks so cute. I am a fellow big-haired one though, so maybe I'm biased. :)
