[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get a decent layered cut that can air dry nicely (go to a curly hair salon, Fiddleheads in DC is good)[/quote]
OP has wavy hair, not curly. No matter how great the cut, it needs additional styling to look good: blow-drying, flat iron, or curling iron. If air dried, random strands will stick out. BTDT.[/quote]

Waves are a type of curl. Yes, OP needs a curly cut. No to heat styling. OP, check out naturallycurly.com and find a curly salon and experiment with care / styling. My life / style got so much easier when I stopped fighting my waves (2b/c), found a good curly stylist, and went low-poo without silicones & sulfates.[/quote]

NP here and I agree.  A stylist who specializes in curly hair can give you a cut that works, and low-poo is great.  BUT the OP can also learn to put her hair up in an attractive way, until she's ready to deal with it.  The ponytail gets a lot of hate on this board, but it can look nice (even professional) and it gives you a little faux facelift too.  Personally I would suggest a ponytail / bun until OP has the makeup and clothes issues addressed.  Hair can be tricky.

OP, I also have wavy/curly hair that frizzes.  I wash at night, put in a leave-in conditioner, and tie it up in an old long sleeved t-shirt (google "plunking").  It's much more manageable the next day.[/quote]
