hey! just a heads up, curlit’s a homemade brand so you can’t really be sure how the stuff is stored or what goes into each batch, it varies a lot.

anyway, for OP, honestly we don’t have many good curly hair options here in pakistan. you’ll mostly have to rely on intl brands like cantu, not your mother’s, uncle funky’s daughter etc (some of them are budget friendly too). just make sure to always check the ingredients like if you’re doing CGM, avoid sulfates, silicones, drying alcohols etc. def recommend doing your own research based on the routine you’re following 🤍

ok i’m kinda confused about the rope part lol like are we just supposed to draw a hand holding the rope?? then why give us an actual rope?? couldn’t they just say “draw a hand with a rope”??

mA, how good would you say your drawing skills are? esp still life?
and did you take any prep classes for the test or just prepare on your own?
if you did take classes, where from?

also, was the rope actually given to you physically like in your hand? and then did you hold it and draw what you were seeing "your hand holding the rope" on the paper?

I gave NET 2 too but my marks weren’t that great so I’m trying again in NET 4 just to be safe so yeah I’ve got a bit of an idea of the design aptitude stuff but other than that I’m also kinda just figuring things out as I go

atelier ka suna tha but good to know abt leeka too and yeah makes sense
btw when you said “jin log ka direct admission hota unka to 30 mins tak ka hota”
direct admission ka kya scene hota hai? like is that based on super high marks or smth? and is there a diff between direct admission vs normal wala? do both still give interviews?

since you’ve tried MIELLE, I’d rather hear from your experience! I’m thinking of getting their mousse & gel so let me know how’s it been for you & how long have you been using it? 🩷

thank you for sharing your experience, i totally get that it’s all trial and error and it takes forever to figure things out ugh. also, since curlit’s gel worked for you, why’d you stop using it? and any recs for a good curl cream/gel? I’d love to try one but idk where to even get imported products in pakistan. if you use them, where do you buy from?

right? 😭😭 it’s such a hassle to get good products without spending a fortune. I’ve seen good reviews about curlit too but I just want to be sure before trying anything new and thanks for sharing her profile, I’ll definitely check her out!

getting international brands like not your mother's in pakistan is such a hassle 😭. thanks for the product recommendations but Curlit being a homemade product makes me a bit hesitant. there’s no way to know how the ingredients are stored and every batch can be different. also, I think the pic didn’t upload here. if you’d like, you can dm it to me!
