A bobcat A bear and curly hair!

Hooray for my two adorable cub scouts! Kolby earned his Bobcat and Logan his Bear. I am starting to get the hang of this whole scouting thing after a few years and it's turning out to be pretty fun! I even get a pin to wear. (They know Mom's are the driving force behind these awards I guess!) Good Job boys!!!!

I don't know why, but I felt like writing about my curly hair. It cursed me for many many years until I figured out how to tame it! It starts with the right hair cut. Lightly layered works for me or a short cut that sits on the neck. Without the layers my hair is too heavy and the curls don't come through. After a shower using curl enhancing shampoo and conditioner I put a little bit of Herbal Essences totaly twisted moose in my hair. It helps the curls but doesn't make my hair too "crusty." I then flip my head over and dry the roots really well, flip my head back up spray in some Aussie Sprunch spray in and gently scrunch my hair. That's it!


I also love getting highlights which blend in well with the curls and add some "style" My hairdresser told me she has many clients who pay a lot of money to get the curly look I have. And thanks to flat irons, I can have straight hair too.

It has taken a while, but I have learned to live with my curly hair and even love how easy it is to fix and go. I sometimes use a curling iron to enhance some curls, if I have time.

Have a great day! Beth

Congrats to your boys and for you for helping them. And I LOVE your hair, it looks great. I am struggling with my hair right now and don't quite like it, but yours is divine!

Your hair is very pretty. My sister has cork screw curly hair and has felt cursed for a long time too. Coming from someone with very staight hair, I think a happy medium would be nice. Love the black and white.
