Hair Cut

This weekend, which is Fall Break at my college, I went home and got a hair cut. I have bangs now and I like it. My hair smells fruity now from the shampoo the people used but now my hair is really poofy. This is because my hair is naturally thick and when you wet it, my hair gets really poofy and you have to use EXTREME heat to make it straight (along with a flat iron) or I could just get a relaxer that chemically straightens my hair but it's so expensive at hair salons and I can't really do it myself. That's the only thing I'm really worried about when I go to study abroad next year.....what the hell am I going to do about my hair. I don't know how to put a perm in myself and I don't know if japanese people at hair salons know how to deal with my type of hair. Well anyway, it's just something to think about, it's not the worst thing in the world if my hair is poofy......-_-;
