I’ve been accused of hating on curly hair, right? I think some people accused me of that at some point. So, for the record, let me be clear: I don’t hate curly hair. At all. I love curly hair. I had an Irish friend who had the most luscious curly, brunette hair ever. I loved her hair so much, but it was the bane of her existence any time the humidity reached a certain level, and since we were in Virginia, humidity happened very often. Still, I often wondered what it be like to have curly hair. I often wonder what it would be like to have hair that “kept” a curl, because mine won’t even do that. Anyway: I do not hate curly hair.
But I did dislike the way Taylor Swift styled her naturally curly hair. I disliked the “mall girl” vibe I got from it, and the way her hairstyle made her seem even younger than she really was. But as Swifty continues to rise unabated, her hair is improving. Once again, “improving” does not equal “straightened.” “Improving” means to me that she looks her age, that her hair style makes her look prettier and more sophisticated, and that she found a look that works for her. Well, after YES straightening her curls lately, Swifty just announced on her Twitter that she got a haircut. She added bangs, took off a few inches from the bottom, and got a blow out. I… don’t hate it. At all. Those bangs look – gasp – good! Now she looks like she’s in her 20s. Now she looks like she sees a professional hair stylist. She looks glamorous. I whole-heartedly approve.
PS… Are you as obsessed with Swifty’s cat as I am? Swifty posted a video of her kitty a few weeks ago, and there’s a new photo too:
