My mum's always been jealous of my natural blonde hair

Post Reply New Topic

Hair colors and textures are weird in my family. My dad and I share blonde hair, though his hair greyed as he aged and looks silverish now, while my sister has brown hair and my mum has dark brown hair (that used to be a lighter shade of brown in young adulthood). My paternal grandfather had black hair while my paternal grandmother had blonde hair and my maternal grandfather had brown hair that greyed as he aged while my maternal grandmother had increasingly darker brown colors as she got older, just like my mum.

Texture-wise, my mum, dad, and I are the same. Our hair is very fine and oily, but we've got lots of it to make up for it. We have to wash our hair pretty much every-other-day at least. My sister's texture is weird, even though she is my biological full sister, as she has coarse hair that is thick that she rarely needs to wash.

My sister's hair was straight and coarse as a kid, and with brown hair, and when I look at old pictures of her as a kid I think of a lighter hair-colored version of o-kappa (the standard haircut for Japanese girls), because of the similarity in texture and straightness to Japanese hair. Her hair got wavy as she got older, though, and for all of us, our hair is wavy.

But, yeah, when I was a kid, my mum would tell me things like, "Don't you know that people spend a thousand dollars to get blonde hair like yours?"

Total jealousy!

ah your sisters coarse thick hair, that sounds like mine! (black) i think there are four natural blondes in my dads family..?

one of them is of a set of twins. the other of more far-removed from i and we call him "güero".

I'M jealous of your blonde hair . It's impossible to get mine light enough without destroying it completely. My hair is rather course. When I was younger it was just normal but thick, but it changed texture as I got older.

I have naturally dark hair and a really weird texture. My hair is straight on the top and curly on the bottom. Sometimes my hair was thought to be greasy on the top because of how flat it is on the top even after I wash it.
