Taming of Stubborn Curly Hair
Everyone who has straight hair seems pretty evident that curls are the gift of nature. Then why do the curly-haired women complain about the unruly character of the locks and dream to straighten them up?
The appearance of hair depends on the form of the hair follicle. People with curly hair, it reminds a coma. The hair grown out of this follicle is curled as well that’s why it has a more porous structure.
Keratin cuticle of hair covering it from the outside distributed unevenly bristles all the time and unprotected against the dust, smog, rain and snow. It’s also the reason why they don’t shine almost. They are dry and split a lot along the hair. But the roots of the curls are inclined to the greasiness.
One more problem of this hair is the much talked-about “dandelion effect”: short walk under the rain or at the damp weather (after a hard styling!) – and you get a mop of hair!

Floral Hair Arrangements Beauty Trend 2008
The latest way to spruce up your coif? Adorn locks with some pretty flowers.
What the experts say: According to the February 2008 issue of Allure magazine, floral hair accessories are in, uh, full bloom. Hair stylist Bob Recine says depending on how you style, the flowers in your hair will make you in . . . or out. Don’t arrange the hair around the flower- that’s what a hairdresser would do. When you perfect beauty, you sacrifice charm? Stylist Orlando Pita adds, “You can play with color and can get away with things you cant get away with in bows and ribbons. Plus, flowers can soften pulled-back, severe hair and make long, loose hair even more romantic?”
What we say: With all the gloomy weather lately, this trend seems a little premature, but once the spring enters the picture flowers will be a welcome change from those itchy wool hats. An easy way to don a faux flower is to place one in French twist—but, please, abstain from matching your flower to your clothes or you’ll look like you’re ready for Kindergarten.
