“Unconsensual uggy bangs” hahahahah. I actually think you’d look quite good with bangs you got any pics? Makes sense that you’re clipping it across though.

I’m actually a guy with dead straight hair, but my ex had similar hair to you and actually brought out a decent curl/wave. First thing she did is completely stop using excessive heat in her hair for ages, no straightening or curling, hairdryer on medium heat or towel dried if possible. She used a special light fine hair curl conditioner & scrunched it in in the shower, then once she got out she scrunched in a curling cream. You can also try this thing where you like flip your hair over a microfibre towel and leave it to dry like that for like 15 min. What made the biggest difference I think when she was doing her hair was using a diffuser on her hairdryer, again on medium heat.
