I've got Middle Eastern hair which is thick and sporadically curly. I wanna get it styled (probably permed) to make the curls more consistent. Anyone got good inspo for this kinda look? It's hard cause most hairstylists cater to either black hair or white hair, and this is kinda in between.

got this photo from another KTT user

please don't get a perm

why not?

just use conditioner on ur head every time u hop in the shower and when u get out a leave in conditioner, then gel. s*** is like magic

Fries your hair with chemicals, if you want to embrace your curl pattern use natural products to keep your hair moisturized

Use the curly girl method

This is the key right here. Makes my hair sexy asf

Cop a satin pillow case or durag to wear at night

i thought that s*** was only for black ppl hair?

I thought perms got that reputations cause the ones they were doing in the 80s were f***ed up with the chemicals

but I swear the modern way of doing it is much better?

plus I don't really like my natural pattern

get a silk pillow case, decent shampoo and a leave in conditioner and that's all you need. /r/curlyhair is a good resource, done wonders for working out how to style my indian curly hair

my hairs a fair bit longer on the back / sides nowdays and it looks more hydrated too thanks to leave in conditioner
