hi...Everytime i take a shower my hair gets all poofy and yuk! I am definitely not going to stop taking shower so what should i do? my hair is naturally straight but straightening it would help the poofiness....i just dont have time to sit and straighten my hair in the morning or before i go to bed. do u have any suggestions?
goodfriendbestadvice answered Sunday July 6 2008, 11:26 pm: Thats actually good you don't want to sit down and straighten your hair all the time, because if you told your hairstylist you do, they'd flip out. It's actually really bad for your hair. Especially if you're a blonde, it rips it right out. Frys the crap out of it. I kind of have the same thing as you, your hair is fine dry but once you get out of the shower its horrible. I usually blow dry it a little, NOT a lot or it will poof more. Just enough so its damp and then I put straigtening cream in it. Just a little though because a lot will grease up your hair and you don't want that. Also, Sunsilk shampoo and conditioner works really good, the Hydra TLC works to keep down the poof. [ goodfriendbestadvice's advice column | Ask goodfriendbestadvice A Question ]

There's lots so find one that smells good to you, and is within your budget.
Also consider using a hair serum, or cream [depending on your hair] when your hair is damp to control it. Paul Mitchell Super Skinny is the absolute best, but it's relatively expensive [16-20 dollars a bottle] and John Freida or Garnier is a good alternative.

Blow dry it after a shower
use a mousse (I use Pantene Pro-V)
THrow your hair up in a bun or pony tail
