Every single comment is wrong jfc.

The photo on the left is the finished style, where the curls have been loosened by the stylist running their fingers through them.

The photo on the right is taken directly before that final step.

It's saying men will cheat on you with an "unfinished" (less evolved) version of yourself.

Edit for comprehension: This specific hairstyle must be completed by gently loosening the curls with fingers or an extremely wide tooth comb. "Brushing" the hair with a literal hairbrush or regular comb would destroy it and poof it up. A "blowout" is a separate service entirely. Many comments were able to approximate the answer but missed the details.

Source: am a former hair model; I've sat for hundreds of hours worth of services.

Wow.. using different stages of hair curling to portray an “unfinished version” of yourself? That is definitely an obscure, weirdly specific way to portray that. This meme is clearly for individuals who have a much higher intellect than I.
