    My husband always tells me he likes my curls. Good thing cause I am far to lazy to take the time to straighten it.

    ahh!
    I have a head full of crazy curly hair. (larger than life.. lol)
    When I straighten my hair I'm incognito :P but I prefer curly hair on me.

    I've been told by a lot of guys that they like long curly hair because it is exotic and sexy "everyone pretty much has straight hair"

    on another note, I went on a first date with this guy once (blind date)... and he made a comment "do you ever straighten your hair?" and he kept going on about straight hair. He was obviously trying to say "straighten your hair, you'd look better" or something along those lines. Long story short the guy was a loser and I never spoke to him again lol

    this sort of made my blood boil... lol

    True, true, true.

    Any guy that suggests you straighten your hair is a fool.

    I too notice that sometimes when my hair is straight (which is almost never) that a man will make a comment how good it looks. Don't know if it is because it is just "different" than my usual or because it is a curly vs straight thing. But bottom line, I have curly hair and IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII like it!

    I read something on the net not too long ago about how in the media, curly-haired women are portrayed as wild and carefree and silly (Grace from Will and Grace, Lucille Ball) and straight-haired women are confident and serious and sexy. Think of movies like the Princess Diaries where Mia straightens her wild hair and suddenly becomes more attractive, and gets the guy.

    I usually get more compliments when my hair is straight, but I wonder if that's just because it is different, since I usually wear it curly.

    I have no preference. I do prefer long hair however. I like the way it fans out on my pillow.

    Whatever style doesn't involve you hogging the bathroom mirror for 2 hours. LOL

    Natural spiral curly here.

    I used to straighten everyday. I love it straight. I think it looks more professional and classy....IMO

    I have enbraced my curly girl though especially with working out all the time. It;s not worth the time I have to put into straightening it.
    I get the exotic thing....It's wild and crazy with sexy curls everywhere.

    But you can't run your fingers through the curls....and that blows :noway:

    My husband doesn't care if I do my hair curly or straight (I prefer straight) he does prefer me to leave it blonde and semi-long tho.

    I've found I don't give a darn what anyone else thinks of my hair. I'm a happier person when I work with, rather than against, what nature gave me. A few layers and some styling creme, and I have curls. No layers and trying to wear it straight, I have wispy frizz.

    Except when it comes to grey hairs. I will dye til the day I die! :laugh:

    A few weeks ago a man told me my curls were "hot!" That was the first time I heard that. Most of my life I tried to be the fashionably straight hair with total failure. I embraced my curls many years ago and I have been happier ever since. But I have seen on tv shows people talking about men want straight hair. I've even had a man tell me he fell in love with my hair (not me my hair), and I know men always love to play in my hair and twist their hands into it.

    So is it true? Do men prefer straight hair?
    I'm biased for straight hair. I grew up dancing in a Polynesian style setting and all the hotties had LONG STRAIGHT HAIR. I'm also partial to brunette over blonde.

    I used to be into the curly, wavy hair on women but nowadays I like straight brunette hair. Mmmmm nice. =)

    I don't have a strong preference. Either way looks nice to me, and depends on how well it's played off.

    My ultimate preference is long, straight, brunette. But I'll take it however a lady wants to wear it. Hair isn't high on my priority list., which is probably why I have none...

    Long and straight. nothing sexier than seeing it flow down a womans back.
    Curely is fine too, but if I have a choice, straight. I could never date a woman with short hair

    I have the worst curly hair in the world. I wish I could find a way to make it nice.
