Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow: My DevaCurl Haircut

It happened. It happened and it's shorter than I've ever gone before.

As promised, here are the before and after shots of my DevaCurl haircut. Sorry for that cheesy headline, hehe. Originally, the plan was to go about shoulder length. I didn't tell anyone exactly how short it was going to be, trying to get honest reactions when revealing it.

I'm still getting used to the whole short-hair thing. You know that moment in the shower after a big haircut when you run your fingers through your hair and........WHERE DID IT GO?! It went from "being able to tie my hair up with my hair" to "my ponytail looks like a nub."

But that's okay! It's a adjustment, but I'm honestly really loving it. It has this distinguished (or so I was told), boyish (so I say) look. Plus, I can now work it into cut pigtails.....am I too old for that?

DevaCurl for Curly Hair: It's A Lifestyle

About a year and a half ago, I made one of the best decisions of my life: taking control of my curly hair.

If you have curly hair, you know what I mean. It's unpredictable, hard to manage, and truly has a mind of it's own. After three months, it starts responding differently to the same hair product you use every day. One day you have shoulder length hair, the next it's down to your chest.

All credit goes to my mom who introduced me to DevaCurl. You may have seen the brand in magazines, and they are well worth the hype. I now have a hair routine that is easy to follow and virtually fool-proof. With a little research, time and investment, you can tame those curls just like I did!

The first step is a lot of education. This post is great for me as well as it reminds me of the reasoning behind DevaCurl. It's about learning the ingredients in your hair products, knowing what to avoid and what is okay.
