Does any other person with curly hair have a certain they need to do before they go out?

All that plus Use the diffuser always looks good till it hits the outside air

I have found it easier to wash the night before, and then just style it in the morning. Too much product and too much work on it while it's newly washed, makes it worse.

nope.. learned long ago just use a rake and do not blow dry.
(and don't touch the hair until it's dry.)

years people tried to teach me what they didn't understand about curly hair and made a mess out of mine. i think 'cuz they be jealous and sheet.

I don't hair in 15 min. It's big and curly lol

Go wild or go home!

I either curl it in order to strighten it somewhat and de-frizz it or I give up and put it in a ponytail.

I straighten it
