| - For 22 years, I have tried to hide my naturally (very!) curly hair. I would spend hours straightening it daily... hours! I desperately wanted to fit in and have the beautiful silky hair you see on every magazine cover. About two months ago, I just threw up my hands and said, "Screw it!" Two months later, I am now a very proud curly girl, and I have felt so much freedom from allowing myself to finally be me.
My mother is a hair stylist and has been doing my hair for many years at no cost to me. She is fabulous at what she does and has worked at some top notch salons. However, she is not as experienced with naturally curly hair as I'd like my stylist to be. I decided to search for a hair stylist with training in how to specially cut hair for a girl like me. I looked at a list of Deva Curl trained stylists, and up popped Terri.
The moment I entered her seat, I felt like a celebrity. She, along with several other stylists, rushed over and oohed and aahhhed at my hair. Mind you, my curly hair has always been something to hide, but here... well, I felt like a star! I am well researched in how to take care of my curls, but even so, Terri had excellent ideas and tips for me (which I have been using!). Her and her assistant treated me so well and I could tell they knew exactly what they were doing. Other stylists in the salon also came over and told me how much they loved my hair... what a great feeling! I walked out feeling confident and more in love with my curls than ever. Not to mention Terri did a superb job! Can't wait to go back in a few weeks!
