The Joys of the Flat Iron


hair_iron.jpgOkay, this isn’t the deepest post I’ve ever written but I just have to share my discovery!

I have used a curling iron on my hair since I was old enough to be trusted with one (maybe even before).  I curl, curl, curl each section of hair then spray, spray, spray it down.  It usually relaxes quite a bit by the time I head out the door and by the end of the day it’s completely flat.  But I have been determined, nonetheless, to curl this hair.

The problem?

I have stick straight hair.

Well, today I decided to use a flat iron.  Just a few quick strokes through my hair and voila!  A hairstyle!  It’s like my hair was saying, “Well, this is what I wanted to do anyway.  No sweat.”  For once I wasn’t fighting my hair but working with it. 

That’s not to say I won’t ever use a curling iron again though.  Some habits are hard to break.
