the bold hairtypes above can usually get away with brushing and blowdrying to get the "straight hair with curled ends" look or just have soft loose curl types. i'm pretty sure this is what they were talking about, since i know several wavy-haired and looser curly-haired girls who get away with this.

and i can see both sides of the brush debate. it depends on your hair... we're all different...
