Is it curly or not?

Hey y'all, hope you're having a good week so far!

I have this hair, it is freshly showered a few hours ago. No combing, no products or anything I have just left it to air dry as I usually do and let it do its own thing. When I shower I shampoo 2x roots only, conditioner on the mids/ends only and afterwards I usually put on leave in conditioner (but didn't this time cuz I forgot).

My hair isn't flat flat and in the back I get these curls naturally, I don't form them or anything they turn out like this every time after the shower and the rest just gets kinda like it is. I haven't done or tried any curling/wavey shower rutin since I don't know if I have it or if I just have a mixed pattern of hair and I don't know anything about it honestly either.

So I'm hoping to see what kind of perspectives I can get and advice (if any is needed) of what I can do or try! 🩷

Curly or not? Kinda confused

Hey everyone!

Hope y'all's day is going well!

I have for some time suspected I have wavy/curly hair, I have seen pictures from when I was little and my hair looked frizzy and big and now that I'm older it's a mix of everything. I want to clarify I know nothing about curly and wavey hair, this is just me suspecting things.

With my under hair on my head I get nice looking curls and waves, I don't need to do anything and they form beautifully on their own (even if the hair weighs them done they come out nicely and the same if I let the under hair dry first etc etc) and the over hair(?) it comes out a mix of wavey and flat but not super super fine flat and frizzy on the top. Now that I have chopped of my hair to my shoulders the curls/waves are defined too.

When I shower I schampo X2 only scalp, condition only on the ends and put on leave in conditioner on the mid and ends. Do I try a routine for curly/wavy hair and see what happens or do I just have mixed pattern on my hair strands?

Most thankful for all the help I can get!

Hellohalli everyone!

I just need to vent a little since I don't really have anyone else to talk to about this hahah.

I'm taking Polish courses at a university at home and have for ~ish a year now (it's all distance and we have no physical classes etc) and now for our final exam we have an oral exam where we for 20 minutes have to have a basic (what I think) conversation with another student asking various things back and forth. I already know I'm screwed since I can't speak any Polish (I can say very very basic things, but not complete sentences) and I can only read and understand fragments when listening/reading. I have this "problem" with the other languages I learn too, I'm Finnish (lives in Sweden but Finnish by blood and my whole family and all speak Finnish) and can only talk in fragments but no full sentences but understand when reading/listening and I had the same "problem" when learning German in high school, that I could only talk in fragments but understand when reading/listening.

I'm going to fail the exam and I have fully embraced that and embraced that I won't get a passing grade on the course due to this either. I'm opting to mail my teacher and let her know I don't want to do the oral exam and explain why, since I don't want to look like a complete fool in front of my teacher and the other student.

That's all for the vent, thank you. :)
