poofy hair with potential


Question Posted Thursday July 26 2007, 3:53 pm

my hair basically consists of thick, medium-long curls. i don't normally wear it down because in some places it's, well, poofy. my friend tells me all the time that my "shiny, thick hair would be so gorgeous if i found a way to control the poof." (almost her words exactly)...so i've tried hairsprays, gels, and different shampoos and conditioners, but none seem to help. what can i do?

It's not so much the "products" you use, because there isn't one than eliminates "poofiness."

What you need is a new cut. Ask the stylist to
razor -cut your hair, thinning it out into layers.

Layering hair always thins and eliminates the excess poofiness of overly thick hair. (Thus, thin, fragile hair should never be layered or razor-cut.)

Look through hair style magazines and pay close attention to layered hair. Some magazines explain the cut, i.e. razored, layered, blunt-cut, etc.

Take that picture to your stylist and talk to her/him about it as a solution.

Have you tried Garnier Fructis sleek and shine, or Herbal Essences Dangerously straight? Both of those shampoos work well. You can always straighten it, and use Vo5 Miracle! Spray. It helps a lot. You can also put a little gel in it, and blow dry it:]

Good luck.
