I might get in trouble for this but......
Do you really like your curly hair or are you just wearing it that way to show the people at your school that you dont care what they think. If you want to have strait hair get a flat iron and have fun with it. Who knows, maybe after a week or so of strait hair you will relize that the grass is not always greener on the other side. Whats important is that YOU are happy.

They're jealous. You've got confidence and something unique they don't have and think you should try to be like the them so they don't have to compete with you standing out. Don't Straighten your hair. Keep it healthy and beautiful. They're all meanies so don't try and be or look like them, girly!

I'm so sorry those people acted that way and hurt your feelings. I was "different" when I was in school, so I know how it is. (My hair is still "different," but I love my curls and wear my hair curly all the time.)

The ONLY person who should care about what hairstyle you wear is YOU!! Please yourself -- whether you wear curls or a straight style is up to YOU.

P.S. You are young, so there's no way you could know this, but the older you get, the less you care about what people think and the more comfortable you are with yourself. Me? Well, I am ancient and very wise, and therefore I don't give a hoot what other people think!

Everyone here has either been through what you have (more likely) or can empathize with you. Sweety I am so sorry they did that to you. It is so important to be true to who you are. I was a teen when feathering was in, and let me tell you curly hair DOES NOT feather. I tried to no avail. A few times I had something that would resemble a red afro, but luckily kids were not TOO mean. They were mean, but like Curli said, she was so right.....

"they are jealous of you."
I had several very mean girls in my highschool that would always call me curly shirly or red-headed woodpecker... it really hurt my feelings, but now guess what? Women are paying hundreds of dollars to get my color and I STILL HAVE IT. I went through a phase where I dyed it all colors of the rainbow, and even had it short like Susan Powter.... short and blond (what was I thinking?) But you hold your head high, condition that hair and make it shine. You are beatiful and be proud because secretly a lot of those girls would die to have your hair, trust me I know. I have always had beautiful hair it just took time to realize it

When I was a freshman one girl that rode my schoolbus was so jealous of me she spit in my hair and put gum in it. (It was because the boy I had a crush on liked me too, and she was JEALOUS) Secretly she wanted me to cut it like a boy. I went home and cried just like you and my Mom told me, "Honey she is jealous of you."

Just know this now young lady and it will spare you so much pain, don't listen to those *(&^%s you are your own person and be happy for it, you are the only you around. OK trooper, now go and make that curly hair look dazzling condition it, shine it put a barrette in it and soon the popular girls will want to look like you, trust me I know from experience.
Get your eyebrows waxed too, that always makes you look and feel better.

Take carre ok.
