my hair is really curly shoulder length it used to be long and wavy but about a year ago i got it cut to my shoulder which was 12 inches cut off for locks for love. its now really curly and i have to shower in the morning ( well i dont) and if i shower at night and sleep on it when i brush it in the morning i have Hermionie hair. I say my hair died on those days, but the upside is when i dress as hermionie for the hp releases i wont have to deal with crimping it!
