The problem in english is that “for” can have multiple meanings in this case. It can mean the product is just meant to be used on item X or it can mean it intended to make the product more like X.
In this case, I’m confused because some people with curly hair hate it and want it straighter, so “for curly” hair might make it straightens or at least not make it curlier, while people with straight hair who DO want it curly would want a intentional product “for curly hair” to make their hair curly.
Which is it?
Are you straight or are you curlyy? 👀🏳️🌈
I’m wavy and the curly/straights don’t take me seriously.
You my friend, I bet you have textured hair like tones and tones of women who have been tortured in salon with wet cut, straightened hair or waved with a curling iron, only to end up crying going back from the hairdresser. There are so many of us that have neither straight nor curly or kinky. They call our hair freezy, unmanageable, dull, or we get the witch (the crazy maniacal one, not the cool crazy maniacal one) look when long.
A few of the curly girl hair methods have worked to some extend for me, but I feel like we do not have the technic or technology to care for that kind of hair because it was just not considered a thing until recently. It requires a tremendous amount of trials and errors to find something approximate and if you ever find a stylist who understand your hair, keep them very very close and never let go.
Anyway, to answer your question, curly hair products are supposed to care for your curls.
I was mostly making a joke about bisexuality… but my hair is kind of thick and wavy except for some flat spots. My go-to-solution these days to add a little interest is a home-made sea-salt water spray.
Sorry for your hair troubles. It’s true for any minority issue–most people don’t know how to treat you, a smaller number THINK they know how but don’t, and only a very few people actually do.
Hahaha, it went right over my head. Good one! And thank you for your sympathy. Now I shall crawl back to me freezy cave
I’m a curly girly
