Losing curl?

in Hair Type 2
Is anyone else afraid if they cut their hair, they'll lose curl? I've talked myself into getting my hair chopped off at least daily for the past two weeks (it's currently below my shoulders, I'm toying with the concept of an ear-length bob). I've had hair that short before (heck, I buzzed my hair for three years) and it tends to lost curl once it gets above my chin. I think it may be better now that I'm cg.
Am I alone in this dilemma?

So..um...I kinda fell off the CG wagon. I got sick of long curly hair about 6 months ago. I currently have a short a-line, which I flat iron, although I also wear it wavy sometimes. I still use sulfate-free poos (I'm madly in love with the Bodyshop's rainforest moisture) and silicone free conditioners.

Mind you, I've also had it go the other way - and had ringlets with no styling for the first time in my life! Why not this time, I wonder?

That being said, go for it if you want to cut your hair. But for wavies, the reduction in weight won't give you better waves.
Coarse to medium textured, porous, dry, and lots of it.
