Yes, the straighter parts at the top of the shaft will probably curl up once you take the weight of the ends off them. It may take a day or two for them to fully recover their natural shape, but you can help them along with a deep conditioning treatment and no brushing. Ever. Brushes are too harsh for curly hair, especially wet curly hair. Wide-tooth combs or fingers only. That's probably why you're losing large amounts of hair- a brush just puts too much strain on delicate curly hair. And for the record- losing lots of hair when you brush has nothing to do with whether you need a trim. Having damaged ends means you need a trim, although most people can benefit frim a trim before their ends are visibly damaged, to prevent the beginnings of damage from working their way further up the shaft. You have really nice corkscrew curls that would probably look a litle livelier with less length, so a trim might help shape things up and give your hair added definition, but it's really up to your length preference, as long as the ends are in good condition.

I like the highlight but be warned, to get a vivid result like that they'll have to bleach it first, which is hard on fine hair and will make it more prone to breaking (especially if you wear your hair pulled back or tucked behind your ears a lot). If you do get it done, be extra gentle with that section of hair, deep condition often, use a dab of pomade or leave-in conditioner on the spot where you put any jewelry/clips/hair bands, and again- no more brushing, heh.

Good luck and be sure to show us pictures when you're done!
