What do you love (and hate) most about having curly hair?
"I love that it always looks styled to other people, but I hate untangling it."

How long does it take to do your hair?
"I wash it, put conditioner in, brush it, and rinse it, then add mousse and a product for split ends. Forty minutes total."

What's your frizz-fighting secret?
"Rinse hair with cold water and apply a split-end product."

Would you ever straighten your curls?
"Only when I go to the hair dresser, but I always leave curls or waves at the bottom, even then."

Any must-have curly-hair products?
"Conditioner and a hair mask."

What's your advice to all curly girls?
"Love your curls."
