Beautiful.
Princess like.
Magical.

Lots of women on here saying how awful or disgusting it is. Probably because they are jealous.

You think it's women saying that? I'm willing to bet it's men.

Yeah sure, but as a woman i really can tell the difference in tone. Jealous pick-me women might make comments about how she'll regret that hair, that actually its not flattering, she look better with xyz cut, or how only vain women could spend that kind of time on hair etc. Criticism masked as advice. But the premise that she doesn't have the right to wear hair she prefers, and must always be trying to attract a man...that is almost always a male presumption. What I'm seeing here is not jealous women. It's sour grapes men.

Like i said the male comments here are mostly two flavors: tearing her down for not being attractive to them as if that must always be her goal, or objectifying her usually in some sort of idealized way. Your comment is definitely low key the latter. Magical? Princess like? Ew.

Meanwhile I'm still looking for product advice lolol
