have no idea what to do here.

I wanna grow it out, but there's this awkward in-between phase I'm in right now. Hair's starting to curl up on the sides and in the back. Do I just start straightening it, do I just wait, or do I get the sides and back cut while waiting for the top to grow? Really looking for something that will extend down to my shoulders, preferably.

Pic is about 20 minutes after a shower, so you can partially see how it's already kind of curling on the ends from a natural wave I've had, which I've always liked, but feel like it's definitely hurting me here when I want it long.

Kinda wanna just pussy out and get an undercut so I don't have to go through months of this awkward in-between period, but idk.

Also I'm pulling out a pretty slow, but decent amount of hair every time I shower. I stopped daily shampooing almost a year ago, but it's still kinda falling out. Should I start with the minoxidil? What do you guys recommend?
