The hair thing.


Question Posted Wednesday April 18 2007, 4:02 pm

Hello, you said not to part of comb hair when wet. what is the reasoning to this?
Surely if I let my hair dry to the max with a towel wrapped around it it will look terrible?
My hair is difficult, its fairly wavy and frizzy mostly at the end, I would like a flat straight look. Thankyou

Well, see I'm no expert... This is just what I have been doing forever.

You said:
"I'm told it is thick hair, and fairly straight, slightly wavy."

Mine is the same. It's super thick, wavy at the back and bottom, not much on the sides. It's kind of straight on the sides. So, I answered your question because I thought that since we have the same hair, it would work for you.

Putting it in a pony tail, makes your hair not be able to go through the rubberband, causing it to dry slower. (I'm answering from experience.) It takes mine forever to dry in a ponytail, too.

If you towel-dry it enough so that it is damp, then air-drying will let it dry alot faster than a ponytail. I'm also saying air-dry it because it gives it it's natural body. Combing it will make it flat at the top and ew. And finding the natural part will make it flat and greasyish. Just wait until it's almost dry to part and comb it. That's all I can say, because I really don't know what your hair looks like, or how you want it. If you want the flat-straight look, I suggest dampening it, then blow-drying while combing. Or best of all: buy a cheap straightener. They're only like $10-$20.

Here's MY routine after a shower:
Squeeze it out, towel-dry it until it's damp, get dressed, towel-dry more, letting it air dry (NOT in a towel, just..down) and once it's almost dry, I comb and part it.

Eh, I'm confusing, I know.
But, anything else, I'll try to help. :)
Btw- I'm 15.
