Stacked is a form of layering. When she wanted to go all out, she would make ringlets all around her head. It was so sexy. The girl new how to work that hair. Girl, you have been hiding a valuable asset.

I was thinking about you as I was getting dressed. I just pictured you with loose ringlets, smoky grey eye shadow and red lips. That would be drop dead gorgeous!

I would love that!
Oh, my friend's hair never looked bad. All us could just scream. On her so called 'bad hair' days, she just had her hair in a loose bun with pretty clips. She had these beautiful curls around her face with pretty earrings. She always look so darn sexy and romantic at the same time. She just had some black eye liner on and gloss with the loose bun and looked fabulous. I would touch her hair to see if it was real. LOL She drove men crazy with her hair. As kid she hated her hair, because her mother did know what to do with it. Well, that's all in the past now. It's hot! It has the power of a lion's mane now on men.
When I saw you first picture, I thought, "Darn, where has Nunu been hiding this gem?" You just got to work that little diamond there. Whew!
I would be flaunting it all over the place. You can do it soft waves like the 50's, finger ringlets, or just loose waves. You have many options.
Oh, I saw your question about using eye shadow as liner. I use a brush by Prescriptives called Fine Lining Brush. It's stiff and very small. I dip that in the eyeshadow and run that along my eyes. Bravo. I have lined my eyes with the eyeshadow.
Recently, I have been paying more attention to my brows and I think it gives me a more professional look. It does take more time each week to groom those babies, but I do think it pays off in the long run. At least I hope so. Sorry, I get chatting.

thank you!!
i hated my hair as i was a kid too because mom didnt know how to deal with it either! thats the exact reason why i hate/ed it! i think thats why i straighten my hair. also whenever mom see's my hair like this (curly) she'll ask me 'when are you going to straighten it', 'don't leave it like this it looks untidy' my SO doesn't like it curly either, or anyone who is not fammiliar with me having it curly, so i just get a vibe that people like to see it straight only! it would save me so much time if i can leave it curly plus using heat damages the hair and i would love to leave it curly so that it breathes a bit!
thanks for the eyleiner tip! yes and grooming your brows gives you a nice look but at the moment i don't bother with mine because the last time i threaded them the woman just ruined the shape.

Sorry about your experience with the threading. I have never threaded or waxed mine. I am tweezing and using the scissors. I am trying to be careful. It's looking better. It's hard to keep them even. I am stopping. I don't want to over board.
Hey, that sounds like major jealousy to me about your hair. They know what you are possessing. That's the same thing as telling a woman put some sunglasses on to hide her grass green eyes. That's not right. You have a brilliant asset right before your eyes. I am telling you it would take hardly any work and you would have people envying you. Your SO doesn't want men to look your way.
Just because of what they are doing, I would go to a professional to show me how to style my hair in many different ways to bring out it's natural glorious texture. Your hair will shine and you will beam. Trust me on this. You can let that hair grow and let that hair ROAR. I am getting goose bumps. You have power you have not tapped.
BTW- What really made the difference with my friends hair - was cut. She said she saw our bosses ex-wife's hair and loved it. She went to the man that cut her hair and it made a really big difference. He worked with the natural texture of her hair.
I don't think you need much of a cut. I really like the length. You may just need a shaping or a layer or something. Maybe it's fine the way it is. I would just like to see it style according to it's natural texture. The right products and help too. Man, I just can't believe people are so freaking jealous. Well, yes I can. I know what your hair is capable of. It can be dangerous.

Argh this happened to me too! In Selfridges of all places
She totally ruined the inside of my left brow, so the right one was a nice shape and the left one was TRIANGULAR. ugh...lol, anyway, digression.
Just to echo everyone else, your curly hair does look lovely. And the makeup is gorgeous too!

Yeah its £10! And I don't think its worth that much TBH, but I was in there and needed it done, and I was too lazy to walk back to the other place I know of In brum city centre that do it. I usually pay £7 anyways so it wasn't *much* more, and they did them really nicely. £3.50 is a bargain! You're from Coventry aren't you? (If i remember rightly...I hope my brain isn't failing!) is it a market there?
(Tho if she ruined them there i guess its not really that good!) I've not found anywhere good/cheap to do mine yet, but I love how clean threading looks, and how long it lasts!
The first woman that I spoke to in Selfridges was soooo nice, but then the woman that I ended up with was rude as anything and then ruined my brows (luckily its growing back now) I wouldn't recommend it at all!

Girl..... I would LOVE to see your curls more often!! I have naturally curly hair, too, so I know what a pain it can be. However, yours looks quite thick, and mine is very fine/thin. What all styling methods have you tried for your curls? There are ways to REALLY help with curl definition and less frizz - other than just using specific products. I'd LOVE to see your curls more often! I have some styling tips which may help if you haven't already tried them.

i dont really use anything for my curls to leave it curly as i find it hard to contro so i just straighten it. I would love to hear tips on how to keep it curyl instead of straightning it all the time.
when i feel really lazy to straighten my hair (once a year!) i just apply jell to it section by section. it keeps it curly. It looks nice when my hair is wet but once my hair dries it turns into a disaster and i have to wash it again the next day.
so yes i would love to hear tips from you on keeping it natural
. PM me
thank you Julie!
