    Whenever i wash my hair for about 3 hours afterwards it's really curly, especially in front of and behind my ears and at the back of my head. I really like this, but unfortunately after a few hours it goes away.

    how can i keep it like this?

    I swear by Pantene Curl Moose (sp?) when I wash my hair and Boots curl spray for the days between washing

    use mousse and hairspray

    crunch your hair when its damp, that should help keep the curls

    i have naturally curly hair, (and go out of my way to try keep it straight!!) But to keep the curls, i would recommend only using a comb, mousse is great esp shockwaves curl mouse. You could try blowdrying your hair upside down using a diffuser.
    Also scrunching....but be sure and scrunch from the bottom up, otherwise you'll cause frizzing!

    Hope this helps!

    :D

    no it doesn't ( well i wouldn't think so anyway). Just to add to my post before, you could try twisting your hair around the natural curl thats there, just put a dab of mouse/any curling product on your finger and twist the hair :D

    This is not recommended but my Uncle was out hunting three years ago and while searching for his gun in the long grass, an aggressive male badger snook up behind him and bit into his left arm. He needed eighteen stitches in hospital but my Aunt was never done remarking on how curly his hair had become in light of the attack.She even jested he should enter a 'Leo Sayers' lookalike competition in Dublin but the curliness had resided by the time of the contest...As I said,it's not recommended...but if you are desperate...necessity is the mother of invention and all that...beware though,your not allowed retaliate as Badgers are a protected species and you could end up with a month behind bars and looking like Art Garfunkel...a scary predicement at the best of times!!!

    Something very similar happened to an Auntie of mine, although it wasn't a badger, she was bitten by a wolf.Her hair had turned grey the following morning and very straight. This is strange because she used to have a lovely head of curly ginger hair.

    I know my post was humourous but it was based on fact and in a round about way I was trying to make a cautious if informed comment on the perils of curly hair in a rural context...

    So do you agree with curly hair or do you oppose it?
