15 Struggles That Are Way Too Real For People With High Maintenance Hair

Hair can be next to impossible to manage. If you don’t have the right products or styling equipment, you can forget about getting the everyday hair style you want. Whether you’ve got thick curls that won’t part or long locks that frizz like hell, you’ll definitely relate to these 15 struggles.

#1. When you see hair tutorials on Pinterest, it breaks your heart.

Damn you, hair.

#2. You constantly have to keep track of your hair products.

The day you run out of hair spray might as well be the end of the world.

#3. You have to get up earlier than the rest of society so you can attend to your mane.

“Aahh, what a good morn– oh crap, I have to do my hair.”

#4. It takes a lot of effort for you to be satisfied with your hair.

A LOT of effort.

#5. Your hair dryer and various styling instruments are the first things you pack when you’re going away.

They’re just as important as your phone charger.

#6. You carry around hair ties and a beanie, just in case of emergencies.

Can’t have a bad hair day if you can’t see any hair!

#7. You comb and brush your hair religiously.

Even if it takes all night, dammit!

#8. Your hair’s worst enemy is wind.

And not to mention, humidity. Pocahontas was a lucky b*tch.

#9. You don’t let anyone touch your hair except your hairdresser.

Trust NO ONE.

#10. Good hair days are rare.

But when it happens it’s a reminder that miracles really do happen.

#11. You take FOREVER to wash your hair.

This is serious business, y’all.

#12. Your run out of conditioner before shampoo.

And it’s frustrating AF.

#13. You know firsthand that hat hair is no joke.

You had one job, hat.

#14. You realise you wouldn’t be in such financial ruin if your hair were easy to manage.

“And 40% of that budget goes into taking care of my locks. I can have it all. Sort of.”

#15. All in all, you thank the universe for the endless options you have.

Serum, cream, mousse, spray, spritz, you name it. What a time to be alive!
