straight hair


Question Posted Sunday March 23 2008, 1:11 pm

my hair is naturally thick and wavy. if i don't blow-dry it, it gets kinky and weird and frizzy. the same thing happens if i don't straighten it. i really want soft, shiny, straight hair but i'm worried about heat damage. any tips for how i can achieve this? i want to stop using my straightening iron because of the heat damage, does anyone know how i can achieve the same effect without the iron and make it more natural?

besides chemically straightening it, you could get it thinned at the salon. then it is easier to manage and probably less frizzy. it also wouldn't take as long to do. to minimize heat damage, just don't use your iron a lot. if you don't use it like everyday, then your hair should be fiiine.
good luck

you could brush it straight while its wet, and putting straightening serum in it. and then once its dry you could put in leave in conditioner.

my friend chemically straightened her hair, and now its gorgeous and silky and straight i love it! you could try that

Hmmmm. That's a tricky one. I know using the heat is bad for your hair (especially when you use it all the time.) There are other ways you can have your hair straighter but it includes going to the hairdresser. They can thin it out a little and then chemically straighten it for you (sort of like a backwards perm) which lasts a long time and keeps your hair relatively straight. You could always try using leave-in conditioners to make sure your ends don't dry up so much, you just leave it in your hair after you have a shower and it helps prevent breakage and damage.

Hope I helped
