Texture is changing with age
I have my grey dyed, but I like the mallen stripe so my stylist leaves that (still does a clear treatment on it).
However, the texture of the grey is SO much coarser than the rest of it, and the grey seems to not curl the same as the rest either.
I’m pretty low maintenance (i.e. lazy) so I condition well (only wash about twice a week but i will condition it when it’s wet), add Not Your Mother’s Curl Talk cream when it’s sopping wet, scrunch dry with a cotton tshirt, and air dry. I sometimes use Trader Joe’s shea hair serum.
Not even sure what type of curl i have - 3A (edited) is my best guess. When the stylist diffuses it I do get nice spiral curls, but honestly I would be happy with healthier hair that doesn’t look so frizzy and dry.
Any suggestions?
My kid will be traveling with friends through France (and maybe a quick trip into the north of Italy) for a few weeks. They are connecting through the Dublin airport (I think- not sure joe long their lay over is yet). She has an iPhone with an xfinity plan- we have the option to pay $10/day for international service, but that seems steep for two weeks.
Several years ago when we went to Italy we went to a store (at the time she had an esim and I needed an actual physical sim card). We made it work, but it was a bit of a hassle finding the store and then getting it to work.
They need internet. Would love for them to be able to call each other but at the very least they need to be able to whatsapp each other.
I would love to be able to buy and install or work out an inexpensive option prior to them arriving in europe.
Anyone have recent suggwstions?
