15/m. hi the hair on the top of my head is about 3 inches long. everyday, to keep it up, i hairspray it while its still a little damp. then straighten it up wards, so its like messud up spikes. then i hairspray it again, and then straighten it again. i do this about three times, so im virtually cooking my poor hair. does anyone have tips on keeping it up, but so its messy, not proper spikes? my hair is so limp that nothing works. shall i just cut it or what now? because i want to grow it..? thanks

Cutting it would be a definate solution, because hey, the shorter, the easier it stays up.
I also spike my hair, and it's probably about 2-3 inches. About a week ago, I went out and got a certain hair gel. BedHead is always a good brand of hair gel, but they have a certain style called "Hard Head". It's specifically for mohawks and spikes. So it's strong as hell. The only problem is, is that it IS strong as hell. It hurts to get out. And when I say hurt, I mean it. It turns your hair like, rock hard.
If you don't mind that, then I'd suggest Hard Head. If not, then they also have another brand that I use, and I like a lot. It's called "Creative Genius". It doesn't work as well as Hard Head, but it also doesn't hurt. It also smells really good, haha.

not how much gunk you place upon your hair, or how many times you straighten it. Placing so much chemicals in your hair can cause baldness. Well, so does stress, but that is a different matter.
the problem lies in your shampoo and conditioner.
Most people think that it is odd having a guy use conditioners, but they work. What you need is a shampoo that increases volume. this will make your hair stronger, and take up more area, thus providing your hair with more support to stand on it's own.
also, instead of hairspray and straighteners, try using what i use.
