My mother keeps bugging me (I'm 35) about when I'm going to cut my hair short since I'm "getting older." Now I have curly hair and my routine consists of a daily shampoo/conditioner, combing through my hair with the conditioner in, towel dry and some sort of curl enhancer (either spray or mousse) and then I just let it dry, That's it. I don't even own a hair dryer. Whereas my mother with her short do has to blow dry her hair and use product. Why should I cut my hair and create more work for myself?

Oh...and I'm getting grey in the front and she's aghast I'm not coloring it (like she does). I just can't be bothered with the time and the expense. I think I'm going to get a recent pic of Grace Slick and send it to her!
Grace looks great with the white hair. And you're too old for long hair at 35? Oh no way. Your Mom is going to have to back off! My hair routine is a lot like yours. Although sometimes I will straighten it. Other times I'll curl around the front with a big barreled iron to create large, loose curls. I need to use product because my hair will frizz without it so I'll use a straightening balm or curling mousse, depending on what I am going for. Smooth n Shine products that I get at Target are the best I've found. Today it was the mousse and air dry! I hardly ever blow-dry my hair.
