It weirdly makes sense, because there was a huge Italian immigrant community on the west side of Denver for most of the early 1900s. Knowing this doesn't make it any less jarring to see one of these in the wild, though.

Also, it sounds like a lot of steps but it ends up only taking maybe 10 minutes a day max?

Ignore the fact that this advice is coming from a straight-haired avatar, I straightened it that day for my engagement photos haha. Took me years to find my curly girl routine but it's tried and true.

I use Prose now but used to use Frizz Ease and DevaCurl, all are great for curly hair. Use a wide-toothed comb rather than a brush. NEVER use heat without heat protector spray, including blowdry, and if you do, use a diffuser or even the cold setting.

The scrunching motion is key. Curl cream + heavy duty gel mixed together and scrunched into wet hair (I mean WET wet), then scrunched again with a microfiber towel and air dry has given me perfect natural curls for 3+ years. Refresh btwn washes by combing, then dampening and re-scrunching.

You'd think it would be common sense, but I definitely didn't think about it the first time I attempted it, oops 😂

Came here to say both of these things! (and to add "no steam" in the ironing process)

Follow it up with reading The Reformatory, and you have a perfect trifecta.

Buffalo Hunter Hunter is jaw-dropping. A master class in POV.

But they're lonely, Maris! Won't somebody think of the middle-aged white man??
