I Wonder: "Straight or Curly?"


My hair has always been on a safe mode. Either I tie it up on a ponytail or I let it flow. My only hair styling tool is my trusty Philips JetSet Control blowdryer or most of the time, as simple as a fan to dry my hair.

Then, I upgraded for a flat iron, because of my super layered locks, I wanted to create a bit of "volume" with a flat iron, so it's either a blowdryer or a flat iron, and I'll be fine!

Just like a baby who crawled first then started to walk and run. I am now using my curling iron more often! I've reviewed on my New 1.5 inches curling iron from Remington and I'm loving it.

So a question came into my head which I would like to know what YOU would say ---

I Wonder:
"Are you into straightening or curling your hair?"



**note: My hair color is the same,
just that the straight photo doesn't have a flash
and the curly hair photo has flash on :)


Hair products used ---

L'oreal Professional Texture Expert Bounce Whip



Nick Chavez Hollywood in a Bottle Volumizing Extra Hold Hair Spray



I am into curly hair nowadays. With the right curling product and right heat protection. I am game for lovely curly locks that lasts a day! :)

Keep smilin'
Stay happy!

  2. I leave it as it it (not that I don't like wavy hair, I am just way too lazy to even use a blow drier), which is pin straight most of the time and wavy if I go to bed with damp hair.

  3. I usually scrunch my hair to make it curly, but sometimes I straighten my hair. But I've stopped doing that so often cause I'm too lazy, lol.

  4. I'm more of a straight hair person because it takes less than since my hair is pretty straight to begin with. I usually save curls for special occasions.

  6. I LOVE curly hair better than super straight hair.

  7. the curls are lovely on you, i must say, but to have such nice curls, we do need super layered hair, that's what my hairstylist told me. :(

    and if girls like me with thick and hard hair, having super layered hair + laziness (no blow drying/ straightening) = pouffy hair = disaster!

    sigh :(

    i do envious you pretty shiny hair!

  8. It's my frustration to have big locks.. My hair won't budge. I once tried curling my hair permanently, 3 hours of medicine on my hair and yet my hair was iron straight after. haha

  9. Keep it straight, that way you can play with it. I keep it straight so I can curl it, crimp it, do watever if I wanted to =P

  11. i think u look great with curls too! add points to your charming-scale :D but i have been a straight-hair all my life. had curly hair for a while..and everything thought i looked 5 years older =/ to add salt the wound, once a little girl called me 'auntie' at a park...damn.

  12. i'm still a fan of straight hair :) probably because i grew up with curly, unmanageable, wavy hair :( but it's nice to have sexy curls once-in-a-while :)

  13. Bouncy, lovely curls are great once in a while :) But keeping it straight will give you more options. I love curling my hair when I go out and party and I keep it straight when I go to school. I also like to try those sexy, "beachy" waves that I see on YouTube. So yeah. I think dyeing your hair is the way to go! (so out of the topic, I know. Hahaha!)

  14. I wish I was coordinated enough to curl my hair!!

  16. i am totally into straights because im lazy and they are so much easier to maintain. :P
    and plus if i have straights from day to day, i can have a vaa vaa voom curl for those special dinner nights. :)

  17. Definitely curly hair! I love my straight hair (which I barely ever brush to create big messy sexy hair) but I love the effect curly/wavy hair has on most girls. My only problem is that hairsprays tend to weigh down my curls almost instantly. So in short, I'm still on a hunt for the best hairspray for me.

  18. i love your hair curly.. still looking for a good inexpensive hair spray coz im not using one.. my curls doesnt last all day

    ReplyDelete
  19. Ohh your hair is soooo gorgeous curled! I wish my hair could do that =( I straighten it but if I knew how to curl it nice, then I think I'd do that more often XP

    ReplyDelete
  20. M, awww I'm glad its a romantic looking curls, I still remember the first time I curled my hair, it looks like "crazy woman on the loose curls" lol

    Citrine, I know what you mean, I always leave my hair the way it is...and I guess I'm now venturing more on hairstyles :)

    Arezu, your hair is amazing! I've seen it, so pretty! You seriously don't need to do anything!

  21. Joanne MV , thanks sis

    Lisa, I know I usually curl my hair on special occasion but on days I wanted to feel different, I do curl my hair now :)

    Mary, thanks dear!

  22. *Nehs* , oh babe! You look great in both curly and straight!

    Y, it's nice to know, as I believe a lot of people go for straight! :)

    Plue, I guess you're right, if your hair is layered, curl gives out a nice volume..but if you have a lot of hair, aside from the "poof" it'll take a lot of time to create curls!

  23. Cabyness, wow, I never thought of curling my hair permanently, I want various hairstyles :) I am sure I will miss straight hair if I do this permanently, sorry you have to go through all these!

    Staciee, so true, that's my motto in life, keep it straight, I can do a lot of styles with it!

    Jenn, aww sweetie, thank you!!! You do look gorgeous with both straight and curly hair, with your gorgeous long locks!

  25. Noelle V. Dotillos, same here! I have tried beachy waves and it looks cute! I am into hairstyling too :) Dyeing the hair? lol I do dye my hair once in awhile and it gives this "ooomph" factor..but its an added to dryness factor too!

    Catherine, no way! Don't tell me you're not coordinated? I know you are!

    Jo so true!!!! I do pray for long straight hair when I was younger, look at what I'm doing now! Women! tsk tsk tsk

  26. LyNn, so true...I know what you mean, that's why I look up to people who has permanently curled their hair! If I did mine, i'll probably be in front of the mirror, using a hair straightening pulling my hair! LOL

    Tish , you look great with big curls because you have such a pretty small face :) Goodluck in searching the best hairspray!

    Khymm, yes, a good hairspray and curl activator is needed, I am on the hunt too, I've found a couple but I still need to try more!

    e.motion in motion, it takes practice and I'm sure you'll be fine :) It wasn't that hard :D go girl

  27. I love both, it really depends on your mood and the occasion, right?!

    Your hair is really beautiful and so well conditioned.

    Me, I stay with my naturally wavy hair...I really don't do anything but blow it dry and put a bit of wax or paste in it.

  29. I had my hair permed a few months ago. But it doesn't look anything like yours. I would love to have hair like that, gorgeous curly hair! =)

  30. I love curly hair but I have straigh, flat hair that won't hold a curl for long so I don't even bother, I just leave it as it is. Your hair looks great either way!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I love your hair curly!! The color gives it extra oomph too.

    As for me, I don't really style my hair. It's either straight or a little wavy depending on how it dries. Hehe.

  35. My hair hates anything that isn't straight :(
