I think I look a lot like someone else with straight/wavy hair than having curly. Others think I look better with straight lol.

Yeah it is a thing here. Whenever there's a drama series and the character needs to look "ugly", she would always have curly hair (aside from dark skin and all the other Filipino natural features lol). I think those really had a big impact aside from the colonial mentality that we have. I'm glad it's changing now though and we are embracing our curly hair more and more. :D

Oh wow, it's really a thing if they even do that for "ugly" characters... It's quite sad you had to pass through that 🫤
