I hear you about being a curl perfectionist. You would think that I would have accepted my less than perfect hair by now, but I'm still convinced I'll be able to figure it out. Mine has never been...

I think our hair is very similar. Lazy is exactly how I would describe my curls. It's like they want to be 3b, but just don't have the energy to do it (most of my curls look like you've taken a 3b...

If I'm prone to being over-moisturized, should I use the magnesium oil, or am I better off with the mag sulfate? I am determined to make the perfect batch of FSG (:

Thanks! I don't think I would have found that on my own.

How hard of a hold is the ecostyler? I probably need more hold than my FSG is offering, but I hate crunch and that producty look.

OMG! I get these perfectly formed, frizz-free ringlets on the right side, yet the left side always seems to be more frizzy and the curls aren't as tight/defined. Strange.

Could we be hair twins?...
