Yes my hair became very curly at puberty, especially the back and underneath layers, and has stayed virtually the same since.

it is caused by hormones and it is likely permanent.

My hair is much thicker and a tad wavier after having kids. Does that count? I’m 35.

I realize that. I merely asked about other people’s experiences. Thanks to those who shared. I just found it fascinating to see it happen.

DD - pin straigh and then puberty. Now wavy on the verge of curly

Happened to me! I then spent 10 years trying to straighten the hell out of it. Thank goodness I learned about curly/wavy styling.

My DH went from white blond with straight hair to dark brown waves over the course of a few months in 9th grade.

This is pretty common I think. My (white) DS2 had very fine, loose curls until puberty, then his hair became much more coarse and his curls are very corkscrew now. In menopause, I've gone in the opposite direction-- from very curly hair (think Sarah Jessica Parker in her younger days) to looser waves. (However, I didn't have the puberty change--my hair was corkscrew curly from a very young age.)

My daughter’s hair changed dramatically after puberty. We’re Asian and hee hair was stick straight before and then almost overnight became wavy/curly. My sister’s hair did the same thing but she’s in her 40s and it seemed to happen in her 30s. Has anyone else had this happen and was the change permanent or did the previous hair texture return?
The only change I’m experiencing, unfortunately, is loss of hair lol.
