21 People Who Went Back to Natural Hair and Embraced Their Curls With Unshakable Pride

We’ve seen countless movies that feature the protagonist undergoing a makeover in order to turn from an ugly duckling to a beautiful swan. The transformation usually involves straightening what seems to be an uncontrollable curly mane. This misconception has led many people to try to hide their trademark locks in a ponytail or under a hat, feeling ashamed of this unique feature.
Bright Side wants to inspire everyone to acknowledge their own beauty, let their hair loose, and take a look at the pics Internet users have posted who’ve decided to embrace their curly ways. Make sure you check the treat we have added in the bonus section.

Bonus: a curly hair method in easy steps for beginners:
- Cleanse: Use a sulfate-free shampoo to wash your hair and massage your scalp before you rinse.
- Condition: Apply some conditioner to the palm of your hand and slide your hands down your hair while smoothing it in sections. Make sure that you don’t rinse out all of the conditioner.
- Style: Scrunch a palmful of gel from roots to ends.
- Dry: Blot-dry your hair using a cotton towel or T-shirt.
Don’ts: Try to avoid shampoos that contain sulfates as well as appliances that need heat to style your hair, such as blow dryers, hair straighteners, and curling irons. Also, say goodbye to combs and brushes.
