I got a perm like.. I dunno, couple months ago. It turned out shitty though and I straighten it all the time. I just cut 6 inches off my hair, which I do ever so often. lol Two years ago, I cut 12 inches off.. which was crazy.
Anyway.. moral of the story.. I still have some perm, so it looks like hell when I get out of the shower, however.. since my hair is so short now, it takes no time to straighten it. I love it now.
(Ignore the fact that these are webcam pictures/my face/my desperate need for a nose job... but here's a comparisson lol)
The first picture was the day before I cut it, and the following two are from the day I did it. I dyed it (just black again) last night, so it looks much better.
