my hair is very thick and curly and frizzy. With no central air back in the 1970s as well a no blow dryers, it looked awful so i thought. I couldn't stand to grow it long because it was hot but I wanted it long until I didn't. Then I would get the scissors and cut it off. No creme rinse except Long and Silky. My sister used dippity doo and backcomed in the 1960s. Now my hair is should length and blue!
