Your hair isn't the problem You just need the right haircut and the right routine like @PLEVO. You just ruined it by putting BS in your hair. Reasons why your hair lays flat: 1. Stripping it of all its oils 2. Aggressively drying it with a towel 3. Using excessively oily products 4. Asking for the wrong haircut What I personally do: • Wash my hair once every three days. • Don't get it wet on non-wash days • Let it air dry • Ask for layers on the back of your hair
