When we talk about something or someone being “good” we are referring to the thing or person doing what is expected of it or him/her. We call behaved children “good kids.” We call chaste women “good girls.” And when we refer to food that meets our expectations in terms of taste and presentation, we call that “good food.”

When it comes to our hair, the same applies. There are several different natural curl patterns; the way your hair naturally curls depends on which curl pattern you’ve been blessed with. With the right products and care, your hair will do exactly what it is supposed to do. Despite definitions that are as twisted as they are arbitrary, we all have “good hair.”

How is your natural curl pattern determined? Scientists say it’s the shape of the hair follicle. Follicles that are round in the cross-section produce straight hair. Follicles that are oval or irregularly shaped produce different degrees of curly hair.

What’s your natural curl pattern?

Face it. You probably know more about Kelis’s hairstyles over the years than you do her music. While both have been provocative and attention-grabbing, her hair takes the cake for what stands out about her most. One thing you can say about this chick is that she keeps it bright and won’t wear one style for too long, and maybe that’s why her styles are so known–she doesn’t want to look like anyone else. For further proof of that, check through our gallery of her hair ups and downs since her start and tell us whether you think it’s a do or a don’t for her ‘dos.
