im bengali and my mom has the most gorgeous curls i have ever seen, and she damages it alot! she hates her curls and flat irons it and brushes it out
. i thought i had my dad's shiny straight hair until i turned 11 or 12 and my hair started to curl. i saw curly hair as a bad thing because of my mom and used to brush it out and wear it up or flat iron it. now i've finally learned to love my wavy/curly hair
