my hair sorta curls up at times in the front, and sometimes just curls so the tips are facing the left side of my head. the rest of my hair is straight, is this just an awkward stage thing?
Probably so. Mine started doing similar things when my bangs first reached my eyes. I don't know if it's natural waves finally coming out, or maybe the effects of pushing it aside from the eyes. Some leave in conditioner or light, alcohol free gel helps a lot.
I get that too, In fact, I've got it right now. My bangs curl quite a bit normally, often doing 540 degree rotations!
It's just an awkward stage thing. Keep growing.
