SAME WITH ME! neways, I dont knwo fi you do this already, but straiten your hair in layers. only do a little chunks of hair and then keep doing chunks until your done. And if you want your hair to stay straight, try one fo those straightening gels. if u wnat your hair to be thinner, go to a salon and asked to get it thinned, it takes 5 seconds and u cant even feel it.

use a clothes iron. it sounds stupid be careful though! let someone do it on a towel or iron mat you can do a iron board to but its hard. let them do it but not close to your head. it works so good.but i stoped using it b/c it makes your hair SOOO DRY!! really dry more then a hair iron.it takes a while but if you do it like everyday for a year your gonna kill your hair..
hope i can help

I have the problem

Wash your hair as normal
Wash ur hair with shampoo and use leave in conditioner (sunsilk)

then wait 20min till its quite damp/wet.

Flick your head over and blow dry the underside of your hair. Then straighten.

hope that helps it works for me i got thick hair too.

Try blowing it straight, and then using the straightener to touch up.

You probably don't want to hear this, but heat treatment is very bad for your hair. And wavy hair is pretty. If you straighten your hair every dau, you should use a deep conditioner at least once a week if not more often to keep your hair from dying. You should also get your hair trimmed every month.

OMg me too!!! lol, well what I do is when after i take my shower at nite, i put in a leave in conditioner (some times) and then i dry my hair. then i straighten as much as possible, then i striaghten it in the morning agian. Wat I do is i do it in sections like ill put most of my hair up with a clip then straighten what is down, then i will slowly straighten mroe hair as i let it down.. it works, and dont move onto another section until the first is perfect.. hope that helps a little

you could go to a salon and get it chemically straited, it works really well, you could also straiten before bed and when u wake up. What i do it pull up the stop and straiten the bottom and make sure im straitening evrything, if u miss anything then it wot be completely strait!!

Well my hair is very straight and I use a Chi Turbo. You could use that except they cost a lot of money. I dont know of any products that can "straighten" your hair. Hope this helps!!!

prupiperphoebepage answered Monday January 31 2005, 5:43 pm:
I think you should mousse and/or gel and/or hairspray your hair after you straighten it. That should keep it down. At least a little bit better. If it does not help then try other straighteners to see if they do work better. I hope I helped. GOOD LUCK.
