Concrete has a mind of its own sometimes, especially on curves. That too much water too fast thing will get you every time, it makes the finish such a fight. Been there with a planter box, and the pitting drove me nuts. A light sanding once it's fully set might save it, don't stress yet.

Man, @brown.jenny, half of these "security" calls are just people being nosy neighbors.

Natural beach hair is a nice idea, but my own hair had a bad reaction to salt air. It turned into a frizzy mess instead of those perfect waves. A little product and controlled heat actually work better for me to get volume without the damage. My sister has the same issue, so we both stick with our usual routines. Sometimes the simple method just isn't enough for certain hair types.
