Theresa before "I've never done anything to my hair besides a haircut ... anything in addition to that would be awesome!" says Theresa, 23, who is ready to finally try hair color for the first time in her life. She also wants help taming her frizzy curls, which she spends an hour-and-a-half straightening with a flat iron regularly. Needless to say, she is ready for a cut and style that will help her contain her unruly mane. "I'm finally feeling confident enough for a change," she says. "In the past I would have been nervous, but I'm finally willing to let go because it's not my mom or my mom's friend cutting my hair."

she looks cute and all, but what do her natural curls look like after all this?

Great look for her but this girl is a pretty basic type,pretty low maintenance and what do you do to her? You process her hair,straighten it and than curl it to your liking! That is something she could have done whenever she wanted to but she obviously did not want to,she does not need you to do that,she most likely wanted you to show her the simplest yet most effective way to style her naturals curls. I have straight hair and I hate straightening it out,I can only imagine how it is boring and frustrating to straighten curly hair,and why changing the natural texture of the hair???
