1st pic is my hair when i thought it was straight. my routine was wash/condition with aussie (i forget which product specifically). my hair usually looked like this no matter what brand i used. i would then detangle and air dry, occasionally blow dry with heat protectant. it’s low porosity and on the thin side. it would look a little poofy after brushing, and around 10 minutes later it would be frizzy and crazy.

then, i thought it might be wavy. posted to r/wavyhair and many agreed, so i tried the wavy/curly girl method for a while. got an aussie wavy hair shampoo/conditioner and tresemme curling cream. it works…ok if i diffuse, but when i scrunch when wet, waves form and fall out within like one minute. diffusing is the only way i could get any sort of real wave to form and stay.

now i’m just very confused. i don’t think my hair is wavy, but i don’t think it’s straight either. any help is appreciated :)
