I love my short curly hair. I love it so much!
But that wasn’t always the case...
The first time I attempted to cut my hair in the summer of 2018 but, the salon did not know what to do with my hair.
Instead of cutting it the proper way, they butchered my hair.
The front of my head was poppin’, but the middle and back had me asking,
“How Sway?”
BUT I rocked it ANYWAY!
Until a few month’s later when, before venturing off on holiday, I shaved my hair bald in December of 2018.
It was the most freeing experience of my life!
Though within a few weeks it became an itchy one once my hair began to grow back. LOL.
Anyway, I didn’t know what would come from this new transformation.
However, there were themes that have continued to resonate throughout my time having short curly hair.
Here are my top 3 reasons why you should love your short curly hair:
- Freedom
- Confidence
- Time
Short Curly Hair Gives You Freedom
I no longer felt like I was being weighed down.
I felt lifted.
India Arie’s ‘I Am Not My Hair’, became my anthem.
It is interesting to me how often our crown of hair is attached to deeper things in our lives.
However, rocking my short kinky tightly coiled curly hair has taken on a new identity for me.
Essentially transforming my life in so many great ways.
Short Curly Hair Gives You Confidence
When I shaved my hair off, I felt I could do anything.
There were no limitations.
The sky, who? My confidence skyrocketed which affected many other areas of my life.
Short Curly Hair Gives You Time
Wearing my hair short has freed up so much more of my time.
As an individual who deeply despises wasting time rocking my short hair has given me my time back.
I am not joking at all. I used to spend hours attempting to get my hair “just right”, now my hair is always the way I like it.
I love having my hair short.
The time spent washing and detangling my hair has been cut into half.
Granted the length of my hair is shorter but using my CurlMix Wash and Go Conditioner for Curly Hair (Step 2)
has helped immensely.
I enjoy the flexibility and low maintenance of my hair.
Don’t get me wrong you still need to ensure you are taking care of your hair properly. It is hair after all. :)

I love ❤️ my short TWA even though it has grown out to my ear but I still love it , it gives me a free sense of who I am and I can shampoo and condition my own head whenever instead of begging the beauticians for a deep conditioner, I am still learning what to and not to but trust me NO HEAT or RELAXERS for me no time soon I am embracing my different look and I love ❤️ it.
CurlMix I so enjoyed this blog!
I’ve kept my hair super short for 30 years, and have grown it out many times only to chop it off again. I never knew how to take care of my hair and constant coloring was easier when my hair was short.
So after seeing an advertisement for the Master Class (done by a short haired model) I decided to sign up and this blog sealed the deal!
For years my hair has been a mess. I felt like while I was learning who I was and who I wanted to be I was also learning how to love my hair, how to grow it and take care of it. While I am still not 100% perfected I have made so much progress thanks to curlmix products. I love my hair so much it’s apart of who I am. Thanks CurlMix
I got the Lavender Mimi kit, I love the products, but don’t know which one I should get in the full-size, because my hair is very DRY and dull looking, can anyone help.
Looking forward to beginning my journey for healthy natural hair styles
