I get hit on more and get more compliments from people in my circle of friends and family. I also take more selfies. But with curly hair, I feel smarter, I feel like I am above trivial things like my looks. With curly hair I feel like I look friendlier and overall nicer. This change in my feelings based on my hair is something that I thought I should look into.
