Styling method: Basically the same as yesterday, but with no leave-in. I felt like I might be a little overconditioned, or my leave-in was weighing my hair down too much so I tried going without it. I'm thinking neither was the case as my hair is definitely more wavy than curly today. One thing I've noticed is that my new growth since I started CG appears to be coming in curlier. See the last 2 photos for specific examples. My hair close to my scalp will start to go into a nice spiral, and then it goes straight down and wavy instead of continuing the spiral. I didn't think my hair was that damaged prior to going CG. I've never flat-ironed, rarely use the diffuser, and only use semi-permanent hair color. My main goal with going CG is to make my hair curlier, so I'm happy to see the new growth being curlier, I just didn't expect it to happen that way!
