To start, I am discovering/figuring out curly(ish) hair.

I'm mid-30s and just realizing that I have actually curly hair!

I won't say I struggle with styling, though I'm still figuring it out. A huge hurdle is that it's so much easier to shower at night, but I move too much and frizz up my hair during sleep and am not really sure what to do in the morning to contril/contain/make it 'presentable' 🤷‍♀️

My hair is slightly wavey. The biggest thing that I have learned about haircare is that less is more. I wash and condition my hair once or twice a week, and leave it to air dry. That's all it needs.

I brush occasionally as needed to remove snarles, but not as part of any styling routine.

Whenever I need to shower without washing hair, I just put it into a bun and keep it above the water stream. There are probably better ways but this works fine too.

My neglect styled wave/curls look about 90% as good as when my hairdresser spends 15 minutes with an iron and sprays after a haircut. Better results are possible but not remotely worth it.

Your hair may be different, but I would always recommend trying more less if you haven't already.
