short hair issues


Question Posted Monday December 18 2006, 2:10 pm

I got my hair cut really short, about as short as the hair in the middle picture right here:

I have very thick black hair.

I'm trying to get it to cup in towards my face, like the middle pic, but I go to sleep and it falls out of shape in the morning completely. Whenever I go to sleep, my hair always gets completely messed up. It always gets contorted in all different directions and it takes me an hour to get it back the way it was the night before.

So I tried flipping the edge out, like in the picture on the right....and it still comes out in the morning.

I've tried everything- I've tried blow-drying it on rollers, a curling iron....my hair still looks all screwed up in the morning. Weird thing is....when I got it cut, the hairdresser just blow-dried it and it DIDN'T fall apart in the morning.

Does anyone know what I can do so my hair won't fall apart in the morning?

Dear Short hair issues,

No worries just buy some moosse and use it when your hair is wet and then take a curling iron and make it cup towards your face and once you get it the way you want it hairspray it.

Good luck, and let me know how it turns out.

It's usually most difficult to tame your hair at or near shoulder length.
If your hair's naturally curly, you'll have to put in more effort in making it cup inwards.

Here's what you can do

-There's a technique to blow drying your hair so that it stays cupped. When you use a hair-dryer tgt with a comb, you can't just move the hairdryer over your hair without pausing at a region till it dries almost completely.
You have to keep the hair dryer at a particular spot for a while before moving on to the next.

-Use a brush instead of a fine teeth comb. A fine teeth comb introduces static electricity which causes your hair to jut out in all directions.

-If it's still messy in the morning, tie a half pony tail and tame the other half of your hair. It'll be easier since you're dealing with a lesser amount of hair

-Wet the ends of your hair only and comb thru it inwards with a brush.
Occassionally hand-comb your hair inwards

-Try not to wear collared shirt cos it'll tend to make your hair jut out even more.
