I started my comic blog Tall N Curly back in 2012 to tell my story. By doing so, I realized I was telling the story of so many other women.
Women who, just like me, want and need to be reminded that it's OK, fun and special to be different and own who they are.

Curly or kinky hair shrinks alot. Hair that only reaches the shoulders when in the kinky state when stretched will reach your lower back.
I have glasses, so when people say: "you look better without your glasses" i say: "you look better without my glasses too!"
Negative comments about someone`s looks = bullying (unless you were actually asked for your opinion).
Girls with kinky hair get told that alot and what alot of people don't seem to realise is that those suggestions of telling someone to straighten their natural hair is hurtful. It's like telling someone to change who they are just to fit it with what is 'normal' instead of embracing who they are.

Load More Replies...Omg this is so true. My hair is not as curly as the girl's in the comics, but it sure is hella thick! It gets so wirey and poofy and ALWAYS sticks up in the back!!!!!
Why I trust two people to cut my hair, and my hair is straight.
Load More Replies...I use a special shampoo and conditioner called Sauve , Sleek. Trust me it works!
My mom and I, I'm that one chick where i walk and most people think I'm running...
Having a naturally straight hair, I confirm it doesn't look as prerty for us either. And then it's a pain (literally) to comb it afterwards.
yep, and mine isn't wavy so it doesn't look luxurious like the girl on the left
Load More Replies...it is a nightmare to fix and brush curly hair, then its so annoying when people with straight hair ask us people with curly hair why we don't brush it.
Well it's a blessing and a curse because you go into the wind and some look hot, others can't pull it off...
i did this but it was 4 me i used the whole bottle no effect whatsoever complete b******t
Funny thing is my sister is pretty tall and looks almost like you but... her boyfriend is like super tall like really tall like extremely tall imma check the worlds tallest person right now so tall
girl in the front reading is like who killed me i need to know before i move on - sincerely ghost p.s. My friend casper says hi
Now remove all the bugs, leaves and other stuff that's trapped in your hair
especially cause they hurt to put, on they pull your hair and make it feel so tight and uncomfortable, i don't know how the Olympics people wear them i'm better off with a shower cap!
Load More Replies...I swam and played water polo for years. I ended up chemically straightening my hair for years to make it more manageable, but it wasn't ideal. Now I've gone natural and have so much to learn about managing my natural hair.
i hate it when im like i have kinky hair and that one annoying person is like oh really you do like yes my hair is curly as f**k
"Wow! Your hair is so great! I want hair just like yours" no. I spend so much money on freaking conditioner. Showers make me sad now
Guess you gotta ask a friend or two to hl you out, workimg simultaneously on these braids and finish it quicker.
At least hair is touching the boobs as requested.😁I would continue braiding depending on how much time the first half took, or finish tomorrow. When I had that same dilemma a week ago, I finished thinking it wouldn't take me less than an hour. One arm was cramped and tinkling, but I preserved on.
You go, girl. Be yourself and f**k to anyone who disagrees, though it is easier for me. I'm not far off 70 and I really don't care any more. Light be with you
I adopt you as my spirit animal. I love everything about this comment
Load More Replies...Oh man, I'm the exact same way, but with layers! Currently growing them out again... until I forget why.
I find it very insulting when someone tells me that my natural kinky hair looks bad.
My hair colour is brown but I dye it. I have been blond, red and black. However it is extremely annoying to here opinions like black firs you more, red fits you more and blond fits you more. Everyone of my friends has different opinion and it is ridiculous even to listen to their b******t!!!
Okay, this is where you can educate the kid in. I know children don't directly have the knowledge of when something is offensive or kind, so it's okay to point out the statement she made is not acceptable as a comment. Be clear and to the point, but remain your respect. You can brush it off with a "Thank you", but it won't get the point across. However, if the kid IS aware of it being mean and they love to do it, then... Yeah... They just suck.
dude i kinda feel the same way, i wake up and i have really messy hair and its BAD.It takes me 4 hours to do it ,in my face Snuck on my buttons Yeah.AND WHEN IT F*****G RAINING!?I have to do it ALL over
In all fairness, the right girl looks way more interesting and , in my opinion. While "getting it on", you want to make it enjoyable for both partners, right? So things can get rough. And if it doesn't and you still look like the right one, then be like: Eh! So be it! I had fun! Also fitting perfectly in partners' shirt is not something I (and many thousands of others) don't count as a problem. It still looks cute
is not something I (and many thousands of others) count as a problem.*

Load More Replies...Finally who understands! Kinky hair just seems to have a mind of its own but I love it.
I understand. When even I wear my hair out its puffy. I NEVER wear my hair in a ponytail, out because it's gets super tangled and my hair
Is super long and puffy, even though I try my hardest to keep in under control
Load More Replies...And me too. I am growing my hair out and it's crazy curly! I deal with this on and off.
Dear Tall n Curly, the British vocal group Voces8 has an AMAZING high soprano called Andrea Haines who happens to be fairly tall. That is completely irrelevant in her case: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIEDUtEby6U
Just because one person can do something doesn't mean everyone can.
