How to get my short hair to hold curls well...?

My hair is just below my shoulders, and I have short side bangs. I normally flat-iron it, or just wear it pinned to the side with a cute clip or whatever. But whenever I curl my hair, it only holds for like twenty minutes, and is gone before I'm going to whatever place I'm going to, which sucks.

So the question is: how do I get my short hair to hold the curls well, and make them last for at least a few hours? I

I normally just use a curling iron, and a light spray of Dove hairspray or something, but I'm open to options(: Are there any special products I need? Nothing out rageously expensive, pleaseee.

Thank you!How to get my short hair to hold curls well...?
My hair is fine and straight - it's very hard to get it to hold curls, especially in the windy climate here. Although I have long hair, this is the only thing that works for me:

- Hot rollers are a must. Definitely one of the best $20 purchases I've ever made!

- I apply strong hold mousse to wet/damp hair, although with some ';root boosting'; spray (not a must for you probably, unless you have fine hair, then I'd recommend it).

-Then I blow dry...

-Then I set my hair with the rollers and leave them in for at least 20 minutes, more is better.

-Remove rollers and finger-comb a little.

-Set with aerosol hair spray. My fav is Big Sexy Hair ';Spray and Play Harder'; but that's again because I'm looking for volume too.



This usually holds all day or night. It also works well on unwashed hair, like if you washed it the day before - then I still add a little mousse and always plenty hair spray.



I hope that helps! It's fun to try something different with your hair.How to get my short hair to hold curls well...?
well if you have a flat iron i would think you would have a blow dryer so you should blow dry your curls so then it will stay and ya. so i think that will help and maybe use a stronger hair spray
use a curl enhancing shampoo and a curl enhancing gel. scrunch it and let it dry.....then, use a non-stiff hairspray lightly and then, KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF and OUT OF IT!!!!! don't mess with it after it's 'done'....

I had curly hair before but i CUT MY HAIR TO A BOB NOW I FLAT IRONED A LOt how can i get my curls back?

i had curly hair before but i CUT MY HAIR TO A BOB NOW I FLAT IRONED A LOT AND MY HAIR IS now kinda straight with waves and split ends ? What can i do to make it curly again?I had curly hair before but i CUT MY HAIR TO A BOB NOW I FLAT IRONED A LOt how can i get my curls back?
Okay don't worry!

My Cousin has had the same problem.

Well check yourself into the shop because you have damaged hair :[

Your hair has been attempting to grow back to normal

getting those waves through to start but as you said you straighten your hair a lot. Almost 82% of girls who straighten their hair damage it by doing it over and over again with no rest. So if I were you I'd settle a appointment and pack up that hair straightener if you wish to have your hair back. My Cousin followed those orders and has thankfully gotten her full hair back and now her routine is Scrunch her hair, ponytail, and straighten different each day. See as she changed her schedule but was still able to do her hair!I had curly hair before but i CUT MY HAIR TO A BOB NOW I FLAT IRONED A LOt how can i get my curls back?
Hi i have long hair and what I would recommend is that you get your ends trimmed really nicely and STOP flat ironing your hair so much because, that is what makes it brittle and also makes it break off. Go to a professional hair stylist that you know and let them trim it up nicely and let it grow out, so that you can get your hair back to normal. I also recommend that during this time you get your hair washed and afterward get it deep conditioned a couple of times to get your hair back enriched.
well it should just go back natural when you wash it unless you damaged it, if you damaged it dont flat iron it again and maybe go to the hair dresser i dont know if they can do anything but maybe they can.
Sounds damaged. Just stop doing so much to it, and is should grow in healthy. You have to wait for the damage to grow out.

HOW DO i GET SPIRAL CURLS IN MY HAIR?

i REALLY WANT TO DO SOMETHNIG WITH MY HAIR BECAUSE I ALWAYS FLAT IRON IT AND WEAR IT SRAIGHT. I KNOW THIS IS PROBABLY A STUPID QUESTION, BUT HOW DO I CURL MY HAIR TO MAKE SPIRAL CURLS?HOW DO i GET SPIRAL CURLS IN MY HAIR?
if you dont want to damage your hair by using a curling iron to get spiral curls i suggest sleeping with them in rollers. make sure you get long stick like rollers that you can wind your hair around to give it the spiral curl effect when you take them out in the morning. hope this helps :)

  • How do I look with curled hair?

    So I curled my hair for like the first time EVER.



    Yes, I know, that's strange, but I absolutely do not know how to use a curling iron, so I just used my straightner to curl it.



    Anywho, curly hair makes my head feel a lot lighter and my hair less heavy and I would like to wear it out, but I'm not sure what people will say, especially since I barely know how to curl it.



    So since this is the first time seeing me for you, tell me what your first impression is about the hair. Thank you!



    P.s. Is the hair too flat on top and making the rest of the curly hair look weird?



    Curly hair w/ hat:

    yupp :)How do I look with curled hair?
    you look great with curled hair! And the flat hair on the top looks a tiny bit weird but barely! definitely wear it out like that! Good luck!!
    you look really cute. haha looks like you can use the curling iron better than me ;)
    you look adorable

    and i think it looks better on most people to curl there hair with a straitener

    it really does look cute!

    my first impression would be

    WOOW O.o she is so pretty :]
    Adorable :)
    it looks good,and you dont need to worry anybody saying it looks bad 'cus they're idiots.

    How to get loose solf curls ?

    I have hair like Felicity (the girl in the show), so in order to fit in a room with my big head of hair I use a flat iron %26amp; this gives me straight sleek hair I can manage and happy with. However, every now %26amp; then I wanna try and change things up a bit - have loose soft curls. This NEVER happens. I tried hot rollers after I straight my hair; it looks like a million bucks for 10 mins then straight again (yes I added some hairspray). I tried the curling iron same thing. I can only try curling my hair after I straight it, otherwise I can't even get my hands through it to try anything - curling iron or hot rollers. So how do I go from forest curls to straight beautiful hair to sexy soft curls???How to get loose solf curls ?
    Your flat-iron will make prettier curls than a curling iron or rollers. It's tricky at first, but here's how to do it:

    -First, you need a one-inch flat-iron (a big one will not work)

    -Clamp the iron at your scalp

    -Turn it one-half to one-full turn away from your scalp

    -Run it through at an angle rather than straight through (like you're curling a ribbon with scissors)

    -DO NOT CURL FROM THE ENDS UP--this will over-heat your ends and not heat the rest of your hair.How to get loose solf curls ?
    i do not mean to be rude but why do women that have curly hair want it straight and women with straight hair want it curly , i am lucky that i am single becuase i think women are the hardest thing in the world to please , but the world would be a horible place with out them , i for one would miss them

    What can I do with my hair that is very easy?

    I have a flat iron, a bunch of ponytails, a couple headbands, curlers, and a curling iron(that i don't really know how to use). My hair is shoulder-kissing length. aahhWhat can I do with my hair that is very easy?
    do a poof at the front of your head and then pull it into a ponytail! (if you dont know what im talking about email me)What can I do with my hair that is very easy?
    I just cut my hair short and I was having the same problem, I didn't know what to do. You can try this and its very simple. BLOWDRY it. When I shower and let my hair dry, it's frissy and gets very wavy and all over the place, I definitely didn't want that. Now, when I am out of the shower, I blowdry it, and it looks very cute! try it and let me know what you think!
    Well flat iron it the you should pull back a little bit of the hair that goes in front of you're face and pin it back
    Try two french braids ..its cute but still 'formal' enough for orchestra.
    do like a half pony that works best

    HELP ME WITH MY POOFY HAIR!!! (pics of it included)?

    my hair is kinda like biracial hair(im ethiopian). theres no way to describe it really its not kinky or curly. its sorta straight because ive been straigtening my hair with a flat iron like every week.



    http://tinypic.com/r/263acm9/6



    i have school tommrow and i bought that mousse in the pic, herbal essence curl scrunching gel, and lustrasilk curl activator. I really want to get my poofy hair curly can anyone tell me how??



    i used the curl activator yesterday and all it did was curl my hair a little here and there but it was still too poofy. thats what all mousses tend to do on my hair, it makes it sora wavy but it will still be puffy. I have A LOT of hair so i dont know what to do....



    (ive tried straw curls and they kinda work but they take forever to do! i need something easier and faster, are you supposed to use something after using a curl activator, or should I try braiding my hair after putting mousse in it to make it curlier?)



    im aiming for curl hair like this http://images47.fotki.com/v1474/photos/6鈥?/a>

    ..but really any type of curl will doHELP ME WITH MY POOFY HAIR!!! (pics of it included)?
    Ok, so I have the exact same problem. I totally know where you are coming from.



    First of all, cool it with the heat treatments. These cause damage that will only make matters worse.

    After years of straightening my hair frequently I have breakage, which causes frizz and makes it hard to style. It also causes your hair to be even frizzier. There are better ways to have nice hair then to damage it.



    Now first I must ask, do you brush your hair before school?

    This is a big no no.

    For our hair type this causes poofiness.



    Curly hair should almost never be brushed when it's dry. Here's what you do:

    Wash your hair every 2 or 3 days This sounds gross but actually it is great for your hair.

    When in the shower, shampoo your hair a usual. Then add nice conditioner. Brush from root to tip.



    When out of the shower add Organtix coconut oil serum. This is natural, smells great, repairs your hair, and does not test on animals.



    Now add a mixture of Tressame gel and curl cream. Brush through.



    Now Here are some heat free curling methods:

    you probably have to get it thinned and then straightened.
    you should ask your hair stylist. he/she would know
    Yours will probably go easily into ringlets (like Shirley Temple). Just shape the locks with your fingers. My mum used to do this to my sister and she had hair similar to yours.
    leave just a little conditioner in it when you rinse it in small sections use sum frizz serum then gel but make sure you get it from roots to ends because most of the poof comes from underneath then dont touch it it gets big when you mess with it if you touch it gets bigger
    if your looking for a cute hairstyle to try out without heat try these:

    OK, since you are going back to school tomorrow I guess you are looking for a solution that doesn't involve going out and buying heaps of products?

    So, I have a similar hair type to you,

    what i do to get rid of poofiness is:-

    Wash your hair in the shower.(if you have shampooed your hair within the last 48hrs just wash your hair with conditioner only, and no shampoo).

    Roughly towel dry your hair, but do not brush it!!!!

    When you get out put the following into a spay bottle and spray a fair amount into your hair:-

    Your regular conditioner, about 4-6 tablespoons.

    Any kind of hairspray, 3-5 second spray.

    Water, 500mL.



    After this, smooth it into your hair with a wide toothed comb, or your fingers. Do Not Brush!!!

    Leave to air dry.



    Hope this helps. :-)

    u could use a curling and a volumne product (such as big sexy hair, got 2B volume hairspray/mousse, Bed Head) also when u take ur overnight curls out of the elastic, twist the curl in the correct direction to make it more bouncier. also u could tease the top part of ur head (crown) to give a little more volume

    curl your hair with a large barrel iorn

    pin up the curls

    spray with hair spray

    take down the curls once the hair spray is dry

    run your fingers through your hair

    DONT BRUSH OR COMB!

    This looks very gorgeous. I know you said you didnt want to use a curling iorn. but i think it would be perfect of the ocasion.

    maybe pin your bangs back over the part in your hair with bobby pins.

    How many times a month should I straighten my hair?

    My hair is really curly and to make it curly I have 2 take a shower and scrunch my hair, instead of using gel and all that crap. But I like my hair curly and straight, but I don't want to burn out my curls with the flat iron. Can someone please tell me? Thanx!How many times a month should I straighten my hair?
    My hair is also really curly. I do the same thing to get my hair curly. I also like my hair straight. I have been straightening my hair for a long time now and I probably straighten it 2 or 3 times a week. It doesn't really matter how often you straighten your hair as long as you condition it. When straightening my hair I use a hair lotion and olive oil for hair. This should protect your curls.How many times a month should I straighten my hair?
    do whatever you want
    You won't burn out you're curls! When you straighten your hair next time blow dry it first so that you're hair isnt wet when you straighten it and if you're really concerned about ';burning out your curls'; put your straightener on the lowest setting and remember not to hold the flat iron on just one length of hair or it will burn through. you can also try straightening serums like Fantasia Hair Polisher Heat Protector Straightening Serum(CVS) which helps make straightening your hair easier and protects from heat so you won't ';burn out your curls.'; and as for straightening your hair to DO IT AS MUCH AS YOU WANT but i reccomend using the serum.

    Help with hair problems?

    I straighten my hair every school day. My hair is naturally very curly. The only thing I do to my hair is straighten it, no curling iron or blow dryer or anything just the flat iron. My hair has become very damaged but going to school with my curly hair is....becoming more of an option but not a full time solution (all I can do is put it in a pony-tail and hope it doesn't eat anything...or anyone). Do you have any suggestions on how to wear my hair curly, straighten my hair with less damage or really anything you think might help me.

    (i.e shampoo, conditioner, hair straightener, products etc etc etc)

    Thank youHelp with hair problems?
    My mother is a hair stylist so I have grown up knowing that you have to put money and time into your hair. You dont say what kind of flat iron you are using but according to my mom, me and my 19 year old daughter if you are not using a Chi you are damaging your hair. And if you are using a Chi and not using Chi straightening products you are still damaging your hair! Also your shampoo is not actually all that important but your conditioner is. We all use Redken products which you can buy at a salon or at a little shop in the mall whose name escapes me right now but they sell all kinds of hair products. The other thing you have to do is CUT your hair. The further hair gets from the head the more damage so you have to cut about every eight weeks or so to keep the dead, damaged and split ends away. Good healthy hair costs money and there is no getting around that.Help with hair problems?

    Hair style tips asap!!?

    Ok, so i washed my hair this morning and let it air dry today. I'm goin out later tonight, and need some ideas on how to style my hair without using a flat iron or curling iron. I know, doesnt leave me with too many options since I didnt apply and gel or volumizing mousse. Also wandering if there are any products I can apply after my hair has dried? When my hair air dries, its pretty straight, but a little wavy also. Guess what I'm trying to say is its not the real big volumed wavy hair, but straight with some waves. I'm trying to stay away from the blow dryer and any hot irons right now, to give my hair a break. I'm considering not doing anything to it, except maybe pulling the top sides back in a little clip and goin for the undone ';kinda messy'; do! B/C to me it actually looks ok, just wandering if anyone had any ideas. Maybe i've answered my own question, but any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Goin very casual tonight, so I dont wanna do too much to it. Thanks girls!!!Hair style tips asap!!?
    Hmm. I know just the thing.



    Take a little curl enhancing gel, or scrunching gel and scrunch your hair all over, giving it careless and beachy waves. Take the front and pin it back on you head in the middle with only a small hump.



    Simple. And you're ready to go.Hair style tips asap!!?
    put it in a scrunchy

    Your morning?

    I want to know what your morning routine is. what time you get up, what products you use, and how long it takes you.



    Also, how should I do my hair and make-up for school? I have thick, strawberry blonde hair, past the shoulders and layered. The stuff I have I can use includes:



    Big and small curling iron, flat iron, hair dryer, straightening cream, curling gel, mousse, tons of lip gloss (clear and two tinted, one peach the other pink), blush, powder, a quad of pink/white shadow, purple and gold (HIP collection) shadow, a peach/gold trio shadow, clear mascara, eyelash curler, brown and lilac liner.



    please and thank you! oh, and about one hour in the morning to get it all done.



    my other info: pale skin, blue eyes, freckles, 5'3';, roundish face with nice cheekbones but not much skin, a long neck, cool undertones, yea...etc...Your morning?
    Hi! =D



    First I wash, tone, and toothbrush. [ I use Clean%26amp;Clear ]



    Then I straighten my hair; apply my gel %26amp; hairspray.

    [ Straightener = Conair. Gel = BigSexyHair. Hairspray = BigSexyHair %26amp; Dove (somtimes) ]



    After I start doing my makeup. I usually go for a natural look.



    I apply my moisturizer with SPF 15 [ Olay Complete ] in it.

    Then I use my conealer.

    Then apply a really thin coat of foundation.

    [ Neutrogena (I'm trying to buy Bare Escentuals ]

    [ Concealer = Physician's Formula ]



    Then I start doing my eyes. I apply an eyeshadow liner [ MAC, WetnWild, CoverGirl ]most of the time because it's really hot where I live, so applying regular eyeliner is just a waste because it'll just start smudge after an hour or so. Sometimes I apply fluidline [ MAC ], during the winter or cool days I do apply regular pencil and liquid eyeliner [ Maybelline's Unstoppable Pencil Liner %26amp; Maybelline's Ultra Waterproof Liquid Liner ] . I apply my pencil on my top lid [ only my top lid ] then over the pencil line I apply my liquid liner.



    But anyways xD



    After that I curl my eyelashes and apply my mascara. Sometimes on the top only sometimes on both top%26amp;bottom lashes, it depends on my mood. I don't usually apply eyeshadow because I don't really feel that I need it. I usually only wear it when there's a special occasion.

    [ Mascara = Maybelline's Unstoppable, Define a Lash, %26amp; Great Lash.

    Eyeshadow = MAC, Wet%26amp;Wild, Covergirl ]



    Next, I lightly powder my whole face to set my foundation. I waited after I did my eyes so the foundation could set. Then I apply my blush.

    [ Powder = Neutrogena Skin-clearing Pressed Powder ]

    [ Blush = Maybelline's blush line, CoverGirl TruBlend Blush ]



    Finally, I put carmex on my lips and put lipstick. Yest, lipstick. Sometimes lip-gloss, sometimes both. Again it depends on my mood.

    [ Lipstick = Maybelline's Moisturizing Lipstick %26amp; CoverGirl's TruBlend Lipstick. ]

    [ LipGloss = Loreal Colour Juice %26amp; Maybelline's Shine Seduction ]



    Then the final step I take is. I wet a paper towel and then squeeze it. Then I lightly really really lightly pat my face. I do this to get rid of any extra powder or foundation hanging loose.



    Estimated time: 45-60 minutes.Your morning?
    you were a lot of makeup make sure you dont look fake
    Wow your physical features sound exactly like me.



    Ok well i usually blowdry and straighten my hair the night before and then straighten the kinks out in the morning. Then i apply mascara (brown), curl lashes and sometimes light brown eyeliner and a little foundation. Just make sure not to overdo your makeup!



    Thats about it... oh and a little tinted chapstick sometimes... lipgloss always looks to heavy though.



    i get up a 6:30 and have to get the bus around 7:20, so i have about 45 minutes in the morning.
    i used to spend a hour every morning getting ready when i was in high school.



    when i started working and going to college everyday, it was cut to about 30 minutes for work and 20 for school.



    now i am about to graduate and start my career, and i can get ready in 10-15 minutes everyday with a look that i like and is not complicated. i can straighten my hair, do all the necessary skin care and random bathroom stuff, do foundation or powder, blush, a shadow or two, liner, mascara, and lip color in that much time, and look great.



    for a special night out with my husband, i spend a good 45 minutes, and for church i spend about 30.



    what takes the longest is searching for the products i want... i have tons and tons of makeup!!!

    For those who are good with curling hair with a straightener...?

    I have a 2'; flat iron and my curls usually turn out something like this (ignore the length):

    http://www.latest-hairstyles.com/gallery鈥?/a>

    Basically kind of big and bulky and curls inwards.



    But I wanted to know if anyone knows how to get curls that look more like this, looser and doesn't have that curled/rolled look:

    http://www.latest-hairstyles.com/gallery鈥?/a>

    or

    (minus the gel/spray) http://www.latest-hairstyles.com/gallery鈥?/a>



    I know it's possible with my straightener because it came out like that by accident only once, on just one piece of hair. I have no idea what I did though.For those who are good with curling hair with a straightener...?
    To be honest I don't know how to obtain that with a straightener but you can get a look like that by using product. When your hair is wet put in gel and moose and scrunch your hair with a wet cloth. for tighter curls scrunch a lot for looser curls like you want scrunch less and play with it a little with your handsFor those who are good with curling hair with a straightener...?
    A loose spiral perm will do it. Otherwise mousse or gel is neccessary I think. Good Luck
    its easy

    1) take some of your hair place the strightner right at the top of the hair( root )

    2)place the strightner horizontally

    3)hold the end of the hair(the tip)

    4) move the strightner down slowly dont let go of the tip of the hair..... (the slower you move the tighter the curl )

  • Im 13 and i wanan use a curling iron for the first time please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

    ok so im 13 and i watch a video on youtube how to us it but i wanna put something in my hair before i curl it with the iron so it won't damage it or burn it but what help me i need advice !



    Q1: what should i use before using the curling iron?



    Q2: and what's the different between a flat iron and a curling iron

    Q3: how long should i heat the curling iron before using it?

    and BTW my hair is thick and dryIm 13 and i wanan use a curling iron for the first time please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
    1: You should use a heat protection spray. I recommend you ';Tresseme Heat Tamer Protective Spray';. Many people use it, including me, and it works pretty good. It also helps your hair keep its style a little. Here is a picture of the heat spray just in case:

    http://www.lovelyish.com/700530624/trese鈥?/a>



    2: A flat iron is mainly to straighten your hair. It can also curl your hair too at the same time. A flat iron can make many style like crimping it or making your hair wavy. A curling iron is just to make your hair curly, in my opinion, the curls come out better looking than when using the flat iron. If you want to buy a flat iron, I recommend you a chi straightener. I don't really know much about curling irons since I don't curl my hair that much since it takes a long time for me.



    3: It really depends, but 2-3 minutes would be great.



    Just to warn you, since you said you hair is thick a dry, if you keep using these irons, it can make your hair crazy dry. You'll have A LOT of split ends. I have the same type of hair like you, and I straighten my hair everyday for a year. Gosh, my hair was a monster after that. Especially since I have thick hair, it's poofy and hot, because of summer. So just warning you, it's a lot of hair caring. You should let your hair rest sometimes.Im 13 and i wanan use a curling iron for the first time please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
    Any product with thermal protection will help



    A flat iron is a straightener



    and you should wait until its fully heated.
    1. U should use a protecting serum, you can get it in any pharmacy or store that sells hair product.



    2. A flat iron staightens your hair a curling iron curls it.



    3. depends on the curling iron
    -Answer to Q1: Buy a special spray from your hair dressers or hair shop, it prevents hair damage from heat styling.

    -Answer to Q2: Flat irons straighten and you also have the option of curling and curling irons are made for curling. If you already have flat irons, just use them

    -Answer to Q3: It all depends but usually for a minute. If your hair is dry then you could try using a moisture therapy sachet from the shops to give it more moisture before you make your hair any dryer.
    1.I use a protective hair serum in my hair any is fine really.

    it keeps your hair shiny and soft and protects it from major heat.

    I use John Frieda Frizz-Ease Thermal Protection Hair Serum works great :)

    its about 9 dollars or so but you can get any kind for around 3 bucks any kind works great.



    2. A flat Iron has two plate the you press together to straighten hair a curling iron has a round iron with a a rounded plate to curl.



    3. Well it depends on what kind of curling iron you have.

    Mine has a red light it blinks when its hot. but to be safe wait about ten minutes or so.

    my hair is also think and dry just use the protective hair serum before you curl or straighten your hair and apply a little after your done.



    *Note: do not use to much hair serum it will make your hair greasy.

    and apply all over.



    Good luck kiddo :)

    Why is my hair doing this?

    Before you read this you should know my hair is really curly and thick and I almost always flat iron it.



    Ok my cousin showed me how to make my hair curly with the flat iron on my b-day and it turned out super good and she told me she puts like 3 sprays of hairspray in it and it will stay overnight. A mistake we might of made (well, my cousin might of made) was that we put too much hairspray in. The next morning it was completely straight again (I flat iron my hair straight before i curl it) so i tried to do it again which we failed at because of the hairspray. I went home and tried again (after brushing all the hairspray out). It stayed for like 20 min and fell straight again.



    FOR PEOPLE WHO DONT WANT TO READ ALL THAT MUMBO JUMBO: bassically when i curl my hair it falls straight after 10-20 mintues



    I'm thinking it might have fallen because of the excess hairspray, or my hair type, but i need another opinion



    and also help with trying to keep it curly all day w/ out too much falling, thanks!



    best answer for someone who is most descriptive!!!!!Why is my hair doing this?
    everyone's hair is different no matter how much they seem alike. your hair might be thicker and you didnt specify the length so your hair could be too heavy. instead of trying to straighten it first then curling, try this. do you hair in sections and spray each section with a heat sealer before putting the iron on it. dont straighten first but use the iron to curl from the begining for a smoother curled look. if that doesnt work talk to your stylist because there are people that have hair that wont hold an iron curl, and if thats the case i cant help you without seeing it.Why is my hair doing this?
    umm? why do you straighten your hair then curl it again if it's already curly??
    i think it might have something to do with the hairspray. maybe your cousin uses a different kind. it might help to use the kind of hairspray that makes your hair crunchy instead of the one that just makes it stiff.



    or maybe just work with your natural curls with gel and herbal essences spritz
    I don't have an exact reason why that is happening, but it might have something to do with the fact that you straighten it before you curl it. Try straightening it one day, and then curl it the next and see if it holds better. Also, maybe you should use an actual curling iron instead of a flat iron so it gives it more of a precise curl? Because flat irons are meant to straighten your hair, and maybe it's easier for your cousin to do it on her hair instead of on someone else's.

    How should i wear my hair with this dress?

    im not sure how to put in a picture, but anyway it is pink and looks strapless but has like a halter top that starts in the middle so it kind of looks like a necklace so im not wearing one. i have long wavy brown hair and i have a flat iron and 1'; and 2'; curling irons.How should i wear my hair with this dress?

    How to get curly hair?

    ok so i have flat, brown hair thats long and i was wondering how to get curly hair without curling it with a curling iron because that really damages your hair!! thanks if you answer!How to get curly hair?
    Well I use a flat iron to curl mine, but if you don't want to use electronics I would say wash your hair and put some mousse in it. Then I would put rollers in and blow dry it, then take the rollers out.How to get curly hair?
    you could braid it (french braid if you want curls in all of you hair)

    you could also put it in a bun over night

    or put your hair in velcro rollers
    Well, what i do is, when i get out of the shower, towel dry it a bit, then put mousse in, and scrunch it. You can either leave it to dry, or dry it on low. Its a really cute result. Just make sure not to use a brush, or you'll ruin the curls.
    to make it wavy you can braid ur hair at night and then open it in the morning
    take a shower and while your hair is still wet out your hair into a lot of braids then go to bed then when you wake up the next day take out the braids voila
    lightly gel ur hair, the get 2x6 inch rags and roll ur hair up in them, leave overnight.

    get a perm!!!

    lightly gel ur hair, braid.

    crimp it!!!
    Buy a permanent or impermanent hair curling kit, available from Superdrug. They're cheap too! :)
    Listen to cassie, My ex usd to do it all the time and it was adorible.
    Rag curls.

    First: Get lots and lots of strips of cotton fabric

    2:Put a barrette with 1 strip of cotton and put it on your head to keep the cotton still

    3: twist little amounts of hair around the cotton

    4:then using the leftover part of the cotton strip, wrap it around your hair.

    5:tie it with the barretted hair.

    6: repeat with all cotton strips.

    *Use wet hair for maximum strength

    *IF these instructions aren't clear, search on Google

    Hope this helps

    P.S. It will stay in for 3-5 days if you don't shower.
    The more I sweat the curlier my hair gets. And when I say I sweat, I mean I sweat a lot and then it dries in my hair, then I sweat more and it dries in my hair, etc. Do that a few days and your hair will be curly.
    Idk but i want to learn.
    with wet hair use setting gel or setting spray and roll your hair. the more rollers, the more curls. the smaller the rollers, the tighter the curl. those pink hair rollers you see on TV actually work. it's best to sit under a dryer or you can use a blow dryer to help dry faster. or wait over night for your hair to dry. remove the rollers and use your fingers to gently arrange the curls. do not comb or brush. spray with a setting/holding spray.

    How do I wrap my hair with one roller? (African American Hair)?

    My old beautician used to wrap my hair while it wet after she gave me a shampoo. At the end she would put a large roller at the top of my head and sit me under the dryer until it was dry. When I came up from under the dryer she would unwrap my hair and take the one roller out and my hair would be slightly curled on the ends as if I had flat ironed my hair! When I wrapped it before bed and unwrapped it the next morning that same style lasted for two weeks without the need of being curled or flat ironed! Does anyone know how to do this? I've been trying, but my hair isn't curled on the ends like she did it.How do I wrap my hair with one roller? (African American Hair)?
    Section out the hair you want to be rolled. Then get out you foam wrap (kera care or motions) or setting lotion (lotta body is the best). Wrap your hair. Then take your sectioned hair and wrap it around the largest roller you have ( make sure it goes around at least 2 1/2 times) Keep it smooth tight and neat. Sit under your hooded dryer. Once dry spray with oil sheen and get you claw comb and comb it down. Also you should try the saran wrap technique. Once your hair is dry wrap it apply saran wrap over your hair sit 15 mins under dryer. Comb out your hair will be light fluffy and airy with bounce.How do I wrap my hair with one roller? (African American Hair)?
    Try here: http://forum.blackhairmedia.com/



    These ladies maybe able to help you.
    You need to be sure to wind the hair around the roller very smoothly and neatly, especially the ends. Any kink in the hair anywhere will dry that way and you will not be able to get it out until you set it again. It's a lot of patient work, but it sure pays off in the end.



    Some styling aid may help to get control of every hair when you set it. Maybe papers on the ends to control them. You also should use a hood type dryer for best results. You must have your hair precisely trimmed to make it turn under easily. If you do all of that, it should work exactly the same. It's a lot of work... maybe it would be best if you let your hairdresser do it for you.

    I curl my hair with a flat iron lol. I need to use heat when I style my hair or else it will be very poofy and frizzy and just look a mess!!! ohh %26amp;%26amp; my hairr is naturally curly.



    I want it to look like this: http://photobucket.com/image/ashlee%20si鈥?/a>



    would this be possible??How do I get my hair like this?
    Yes it is. Just get a professional to do it properly first then ask if he/she is nice enough to show you the technique.



    I'm not sure why you'd want to look like Ashlee, you're pretty cute if you don't mind me saying. Bit better then Ashlee.How do I get my hair like this?
    Erm well your hair aready looks like it but I think you should straighten it, wet it, then put them into about 8 braids then let them go the next day. xD
    Yes..... obviously if she has it done it's very possible, it's not that crazy she just curled it.
    it already looks like it.
    first you straighten it with a flat iron, then apply hold gel all over your hair to make it a TAD sticky, then curl it with a very small barrel curling iron starting at the ends NOT the roots.
    Color your hair and just flat iron and use some pomade.

    You like a lot like her.Good luck.
    First of all: Wow. You're really pretty :).

    Second, try straightening, then using a bigger curling iron (like, 1 or 2 inch barrel). Make sure to get a really good one, because-with my experience-the bigger they are, the harder it is to work with.



    Oh, and, you're completely awesome, too. Edward Cullen is so amazing!! %26lt;3
    it already looks like it
    I like your hair way better than hers actually..
    well, being that it is made out of delicious frozen dairy, chocolate, and sugar, it could be quite challenging. you may have to be put through extensive plastic surgery and chronic freezing before you can accomplish the exact smug expression such as pictured.



    nah i'm just kidding. i think your hair looks very similar already if not better. but if you really want it maybe do the same thing with the flat iron, wet it down a bit, then spray it with some bed head after you maybe run some gel through it.

    good luck and just experiment until you find a way that works for you.







    haha popsicle.
    Why the heck does everyone give that stupid peace sign and make a retarded face in all their pictures? You do realize you look like an idiot don't you? You don't look cool or cute or anything. Just dumb. You're a pretty girl. Why not smile in a picture rather then looking like a dumb as*?



    Anyway. You can't get loose spiral type curls like that with a flat iron. Get a curling iron, and take strands of hair and wrap it around the curling iron. Then lightly brush the curls to make them looser like in the picture. Or, do cloth curlers. Take strips of cloth and wrap little sections of hair around the cloth then tie to your head. Do it all over your head when your hair is wet. Take a blow dryer and blow dry over the cloth curlers for heat. Then take them out and brush out the curls again. Hope this helps.
    The best possible way to curl it- somewhat 2 look like that is by ironing it- apply hair moose %26amp; braiding it in big box braids after- leave the braids for at least a day and take them out %26amp; dont brush- BTW I like your hair better...



    Good luck...
    Yeah it's possible. Your hair sorta looks like it already

    And you are very pretty. I love love love your shirt in the first picture

    :D
    dry ur hair at night after shower then braid it into like.... 10 or 11 tiny braids then let them out in the morning
    You look exactly like this girl Natasha!

    And you should srunch it to give it that wettish thinner look because yours looks more of a fluffy look hers look thin and wet
    your hair is already better than her's.Don't try to make them like her's.

    How do I treat a curling iron burn?

    Last night I was trying to curl my hair with my big barrel curling iron. I don't know what happened exactly, but somehow when setting my iron down it grazed my thigh, just above my knee. It probably touched my skin for about two seconds. I washed it with cold water afterwards, and that was all I did at first. I didn't think it was going to be bad because i've burned myself with a flat iron before and nothing has happened to me before.



    There was no mark until later when I noticed it was pink and the skin had raised a little. I washed it again and sprayed it with Lanacane anti-bacterial spray that contains vitamin E %26amp; aloe. After that I went to bed and this morning my burn is a deep brown/red color. I sprayed it with Lanacane again and now I have been soaking it in Aloe Vera Gel. Oh and i've been rubbing anti-scarring cream on it too.



    How can I heal this scar at home? The skin is no longer raised. The burn looks to be about 4 inches long and 1 inch wide. The coloring is still a deep brown/red . Please tell me this won't scar, i'm trying everything I can so that it won't. I have enough scars to worry about. And last thing I need is an infection.How do I treat a curling iron burn?
    Don't put any more creams or lotions on it. That will trap the burn and cause more damage to underlying skin. Just keep it clean (cool water and soap) and let it breath. It shouldn't scar, it just needs time to healHow do I treat a curling iron burn?
    o.k. it worked for my grandson.Take reglar table mustard an honey mix together just small bits at a time clean area an apply it on the burn do noy cover it allow it to just air dry do that about twice a day it should heal so much quicker,It will also take the sting out of the burn

    How do you reverse straightening done by a flat iron?

    I have had extremely curly hair since I was a baby. I am 29 years old, about a year ago I started using a flat iron on my hair for the first time in my life. With in two months, using it about once or twice a week my hair lost 90% of it's curl. It's now at best wavy, and I have to straighten it just for it to look right. Does anyone know why this happened? I use a shine product and straightening syrum when I style. I miss my curly hair so bad! I have before and after pictures.

    This was my hair end of Feb last year.

    Some of the top of my head curls a bit, but the underneath doesn't at all. No matter what I do. Please help I miss my wash and go curly hair :(How do you reverse straightening done by a flat iron?
    Try not to straighten your hair so much and dont use the products on it.How do you reverse straightening done by a flat iron?
    Try to stop straightening your hair so often. It can really damage your hair.

    Other than that, switch to a curly shampoo and conditioner, mine works fairly well (Herbal Essences) but I really like Pantene ProV too.



    Good Luck ^^

    Will straightening my hair damage all my hair,or just the bottom?

    i use two diffrent kinds of heat protection sprays.i use a serum for my ends,and paul micthell heat seal for the rest of my hair.i also get my hair trimmed about every six weeks or maybe later than that ,but no later than 9 wks.i have really poofy,wavy,thick hair;i've been layering it instead of long lenghth now.it takes some body out,but it's still poofy and frizzy.i'm so tired of straightening it.how can i make my waves more soft and anti-frizzy.can you curl wavy hair with a flat iron to make better waves than what you have?Will straightening my hair damage all my hair,or just the bottom?
    yes you can curl it with a straightener but i have yet to figure that out lol,Will straightening my hair damage all my hair,or just the bottom?
    Nah it won't unless you straighten it more then once a week. And it sounds like your using WAY to much products on your hair. Try using ONLY the garnier fructis smoothing milk, find it at any WalMart.

    I had the wavy %26amp; frizz problem too. I started using the smoothing milk and a straightening shampoo/conditioner set (I recommend the one with the purple bottle, sorry the name kinda ran across my mind and I couldn't catch it)

  • Help!! im not sure how to use a flat iron.?

    i just bought a flat iron called remington. please tell me how to straighten my bangs. their straight but the upper part is not the way i want it. i want to flip my bangs. thanks for all your help. oh and how do i curl my hair with it. =]Help!! im not sure how to use a flat iron.?
    Plug it in, and after 10 minutes it should be hot enough. Hold your hand around the bottom so you can clasp it down when you straighten your hair. Use the other hand on the top of the straightener as support and extra straightening power. Put a lock of hair in between the plates and clasp down and hold it like that, pulling it down towards the end of your hair. Practice small bits of hair first and get more confident so you don't burn yourself. Try to keep the straightener like 2-3 inches at least away from your hair roots because your hair loses health and volume the closer it comes to the roots. Good luck:) Flat irons are amazing.Help!! im not sure how to use a flat iron.?
    Make sure you have it good and hot then start at the top with a lock of hair and pull it between the two plates. It helps and will be straighter if you do this slowly. If you want your bangs flipped then pull out toward the bottom of the lock of hair. Hope it works out!
    ooooh i have a chi and a remington wet 2 straight. the remington is better!!! anyways, wait like 1 min before it heats up and then slowly run it through

    Straightening hair without losing volume?

    I like to straighten my hair, because when I dont, it's frizzy and unmanageable. I curl my hair with rollers first, and then straighten it with a flat iron (because curling it makes it alot easier). But when I straighten my hair, I loose all the volume? How can I get straight, un-frizzy hair, without having it go completely limp?



    ps- Its really hard for me to blow-dry my hair, so is there any other way?



    Thanks!!Straightening hair without losing volume?
    I've tried a lot of volumizing shampoos and conditioners but I found Bedhead's Superstar line to be the best!Straightening hair without losing volume?
    you do it regularly but instead of straightening it completely straight you will king of curve then machine toward your head like flipping it in. then youll do the top of the hair the exact same way youll have volume trust me i do it all the time.
    Why is it hard? What kind of hair do you have? Its best to wash it really well, Put little or no conditioner, Towel dry it to be damp, Bend over and blow dry your hair from under, Then straighten it.

    Hope I helped..
    Watch this, it really works! http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-blow鈥?/a>

    Did I ruin my hair?! [help!]?

    Okay, so I was trying to curl my hair [I don't do it often]

    I wasn't using hair protectant. [I nvr do b/c i rarely ever curl my hair]

    so, i was about to curl my hair with a flat iron but i messed up, and now, there is a crink in my hair, i'm not exactly sure how to desribe it, it's like it's strait for a part of it, and then it juts out and then curves back into a strait line of hair again, did i damage my hair?! Will it stay like that now because i'm really freaked out, because you can see the crink..it's REALLY noticable! Did i screw up big time?!



    HELP!Did I ruin my hair?! [help!]?
    haha stop freaking. you didnt damage your hair. that happens with anybody.. just go over it and straighten it... then try to recurl it. thats simply just because you messed th curl up. i do it all the time. :P



    :))Did I ruin my hair?! [help!]?
    no wash it it will be fine.
    No it is not permanent, and you did not ruin your hair. Just re-curl it.
    No, it'll be gone in a few hours. If it's not gone by then, it'll come out in your next shower.
    Lol, no you didn't damage your hair, not that I'm saying it's good to NOT use hair protectant because you definitely should when using any kind of heat on your hair but your hair should and will go back to its normal state after you wash it. If your hair is naturally straight and you curl is and the curl doesn't turn out and sometimes even if it does turn out you will see the lines where the flat iron is or where you used the curling iron. It all depends on how you do it. But trust me, its not ruined =]

    My hair doesn't style?

    I have really thick and fairly healthy hair, it's brown and down to my boob. I always straighten it and it's getting kinda boringg, and whenever I try to wave or crimp my hair or put it up in an updo it doesn't really seem to work. I try different methods of waving my hair like with a flat iron, curling iron, braids, etc etc, and only the braids work but I don't like how it turns out ^.^ I don't use many hair products but I really wanna be able to do different things with my hair. Helpp?My hair doesn't style?
    You could always try temporary perms, or braid your hair, then let out unloose, that's really pretty! :]My hair doesn't style?
    that was my situation until one of my friends told me to do this:



    take a shower before you go to bed and twist your hair into a messy bun. (the messier, the better)

    take it out in the morning and add a dime sized blob of garnier frutis surf hair. evenly distribute it throughout your head.

    take garnier frutis curling mouse and also work it into your head.

    then use some hairspray and have a nice even layer all around



    i do this but leave my bangs out so i can blowdry them in the morning



    hope this works. believe me, my hair seemed like it couldn't do anything.

    How can I do my hair?

    I have super duper thick hair ! I can't french braid , it looks stupid in braids and , buns are out of the question . I useually have it in half ponies to thin it out , but its still crazilly thick . its below my shoulders and i can't think of anything to do with it !



    I don't have a curling iron or flat iron .How can I do my hair?
    you could try doing your hair down but then take pieces from each side around your face, pull them back and add a cute pin, put it in a pony, or a fancy clip.

    Here are 2 pictures

    http://www.hrweddinghair.com/partial-upd鈥?/a>



    you could wear your hair natural and try putting a nice flower in it or something?

    if you have a blow dryer you can straighten your hair that way or even curl it, doesn't last as well but works really well.



    hopes this helpesHow can I do my hair?
    you can always go to the salon and get it thinned out, but i dont think they make products or anything that thin your hair because normally what people are going for is a thicker look, not thinner.



    i would say either save up enough to buy a flat iron orr go to the salon and tell them that you want your hair thinned
    You hate your thick hair? Be proud, not angry!

    If it's frizzy, that's one thing. You can buy Pantene products to fix the frizz. You can just part it or pull back the middle.

    ok. my hair is naturally wavy. i hate it, so i straighten it, but i love it when it is really curly (spirals, if possible) . what i want to know is how do you curl your hair with a flat iron??? btw, mine is not the little kind, so i don't know if it would work. also, i saw a question about crimping your hair by putting your hair in 2 braids then go over it with a flat iron. should you hair be wet or dry?? how long should it be in the braids???? thanx. if you could answer all of the questions, that would be great.Someone pleeeeeeeeze help me with hair questions??
    you really should use a diffuser and curly hair products but you wrap the section mof hair around the iron starting at the base near the scalp and turn section by section till u reach the ends.crimping would be eassier with a crimper but braid your hair wet the night before then do the iron over it in the morning when the hair is drySomeone pleeeeeeeeze help me with hair questions??

    CHI flat iron-please help!?

    I have a 1inch Chi Flat iron/straightener. I have pretty think, crazy-curly-wavy hair which I hate. So I straighten my hair everyday with my chi. I want to learn how to create big, soft waves, and spiral curls with the Chi. I know it is a straightener, but I have seen how it can curl/wave hair also. Please tell me how to wave and curl my hair- Thanks, xoxoCHI flat iron-please help!?
    I use the CHI on all my clients, and when I do updo's on prom days I ALWAYS use my CHI to curl.

    Just take the CHI and turn it while you're going down the hair shaft, kind of in a circle, like you would a curling iron. It takes a little practice but once you get the hang of it, you'll love it and the curls stay better than when you use a curling iron.CHI flat iron-please help!?
    instead of letting it fully warm up. use it when it isnt that hot. also dont clamp hard on the chi when creating curls/waves or else you will only get a straight angle curve.
    Whati do with my CHI is i take it and make kind of curves with the iron while going down with it about medium hot and it usually works with my hair. my hair is soooooooooo thick curly and wild. i have to use it every day. ttyl.bye.

    Hey i've gt a question about styling my hair with a curling iron.....??? please help?

    i know i just asked this question yesterday but i didnt get too any answers and it didnt really help lol. okay i just got a curling iron as a goft and frankly i dont know how to use it. its a ';my curl'; by sanyel with dual heat control';. does this signify anything? i'm don't style dumb it';s just i never really do anything with my hair i just usually put it in one of those giant clip/mancha or just in a ponytail. i never really use gel or sprays because i don't really know what i should use and it just doesnt feel right having y hair full of stuff lol. school is starting soon so i was hoping to go possibly with a new style. my hair type is very curly (in the morning) but after i brush it it turns wavy but frizzy and poofy, umm. well it's red/brown color and it's flat near the roots but then it's thick towards the end and sometimes a natural soft curl comes out and it looks really nice . i don't know what to do with it lol. i know the curling iron can damage the hair with the heat and all but i was just hoping maybe somene can give me some advice on wat i can do with it? like any styles that might look nice or any websites that can give some instructions, or any advice on the curling iron itself? i heard that u need to wet your hair before yu curl it? i dont think thats right though but im not sure. thank you for any advice and for the help i really appreciate it =)Hey i've gt a question about styling my hair with a curling iron.....??? please help?
    Okay, that was a lot of info, but I can help. First, to prevent from heat damage, when your hair is damp, spray your hair with a heat protectant spray, which you can get from any store like Wal-Mart. Then let your hair dry, because you don't want to curt wet hair, this is going to steam and could burn you. Whether you want to curl or wave your hair out, do it in sections by pulling the top half up into a pony and clipping it away from the section your working with. Then you grab a inch of hair. To wave, hold the barrel of the curling iron facing down, wrapping the 1-inch piece around the barrel, AWAY from the face. This gives the hair a natural look. To curl take same size piece of hair and put it in the barrel and pull it to the end and wap around barrel. Hold the hair there for about 10 seconds to get a good hold. Repeat with all of your hair in section. If you are waving your hair, take a wave gel/cream like Sun Silk waves of envy twisty gel/cream stuff and put a little dime size amount in your hand. Rub hands together and then scrunch it in your curls. Use one dime size for each side and the back. If you curled your hair, use a aerosol hair spray all over and scrunch your curls to get the hair spray all over. Hope this helps!

    *How to create waves out of natural curls using a flat iron?

    I have naturally curly hair, but I'm trying to do something different with my hair. I have a Sedu flat iron, and I'm trying to make waves instead of straightening it, which (if you look at the numerous youtube and other videos) is possible.

    However, when I do it, my hair is so thick that it becomes pretty poofy, but still looks natural. Is there any way to get these ';waves'; (they're more straight than wavy) into a less poofy, more ';wavy'; style?

    Thanks!*How to create waves out of natural curls using a flat iron?
    You should try blowdrying your hair with a round brush after showering, and then running the flat iron through to make it straight. Use a heat protection spray, as this process is rough on your hair.



    Your hair will now be straight and less ';poofy';. Run some wave activating product through your hair, and NOW put the waves in your hair.



    Use a good hairspray, and you're good to go!*How to create waves out of natural curls using a flat iron?
    Just straighten you hair normally and just Paul Mictchell super skinny so I wont be puffy, your hair well end up geting wavy by the end of the day It always works for me...

    What's Worse- curling iron or straightening iron...?

    So I took a break from flat-ironing my hair, and just used a curling iron- without blowing drying it. I have relaxed hair (washed with moisturizing shampoo and conditioner) and let it air-dry all day (and looked crazy, but the things we do for healthy hair...). Then I put a ton of protectant stuff and curled about 1 inch sections each. My ends seemed less rough than when I use an iron and I put some serum stuff to soften it and make it shiny.



    So I want to know, is this better or about the same? I know it's still heat, but it seemed softer and less rough than when I iron it. My iron goes up to 400 F, though I only put it most at 325 F (is that too much?) I set my iron (Conair) on #11 (don't know how hot that is...)What's Worse- curling iron or straightening iron...?
    Well to be honest from my experience i think that the curling iron is worst.



    My straighteners have ceramic plates which provides me with a smooth glide which doesn't pull on my hair, also when im straightening i'm constantly moving the Straighteners in a smooth motion downwards which means that the heat is spread down my hair and not applied just to one area of my hair.



    Where as with the curlers the reason i think they damage your hair is because you have to wrap your hair around a hot plate and hold it in position for a good 10 seconds maybe longer depending on how good your curlers are.



    this is only my personal opinion. getting naturally straight hair is hard, but its easy to get curly hair without heat. Search for tutorials on youtube.What's Worse- curling iron or straightening iron...?
    straightening is worse because you're not only applying heat, you're pulling and stretching the hair too.
    I don't think that it matters too much. It depends on how you curl it/ straighten it. I would say you should ask a hairdresser which one would be better for you.
    i use a straigthener BUT it has 100% CERAMIC PLATES

    that makes all the difference

    i have EXTREMLY fair hair [naturally blonde=i cant even use hair dyes]

    and this works

    i didnt even notice a change in it

    whatever you use get cermamic plates

    it will be expensive tho

  • Bored with my hair.?

    i have black hair thats long-ish medium...its past my shoulders. its really boring...the only thing i do with it is tie it in a pony tail, or let it down... i dont know how to do anything else, and i have no hair products or curling/flat irons. what should i do with it (except dying). Im not so sure about cutting..because i dont like that awkard growing stage. i just dont know what to do with it..i am asian and have an oval face shape. suggestions on hair dos/ hair cuts please :(Bored with my hair.?
    You can get wavy hair products. I recently purchased Sunsilks new Wavy hair spray and This Gel/Cream mix and I love them. The gel/cream mix makes it so your waves arent crunchy and hard!!! They are the Waves of Envy line, blue bottles. Try it out!Bored with my hair.?
    you could get bangs

    side bangs

    get layers

    dye it lighter



    add highlights



    you can try half ponytails

    buns



    you can make it wavyish by adding water and mouse on ur hair



    squezze it scrunch it and wrap it in a bun



    leave for half hr then let it loose

    it will look good.
    omg... i have the same prob, except, im not asian, i m gonna get a shoulder length cut tht is super layered, yet i can still put it up!
    Well you i suppose you have really straight hair so you you could try new thins like braids or try to use headband they are really cute and they麓re really IN right now...Or for something more dramatic you should try a new cut if you are a litlle scare don麓t do anything too dramatic just try to cut it a little bit shorter or just try the BOB cut like they said it is like the katie holme hairstyle its really really beautiful
    you should layer it and get longer side bangs. if you dont want 2 cut it then buy a curling iron and some hairspray then curl it. (a picture of your hair would help)

    I am a Black womanand lately my hair is doing horribly. I have major breakage throughout -not sure what to do

    I had a weave in my hair last year and am finally letting my hair breathe. I do a relaxer (and have to - my hair is thick and kinky) every 2 months. I've done both home and parlor and never had these problems before. When I wash my hair - clots of hair come out. When I am brushing my teeth, my hair sheds/breaks off like crazy just from shaking my head. I put heat protector in it if I use a flat iron to curl - no other heading products though. My hair is extremely short now as well and continuing to break off - particularly in the back of my head it is thinning.



    Please help me repair my hair! What kind of deep conditioner is good for my hair and how often should I do it? Rollers do not do well in my hair at night etc... so I don't work with that. I don't curl my hair everyday. I normally use the Pantene line (shampoo/cond) or Creme of Nature (all in one). Any thoughts?I am a Black womanand lately my hair is doing horribly. I have major breakage throughout -not sure what to do
    Leave the relaxers alone for a while.I am a Black womanand lately my hair is doing horribly. I have major breakage throughout -not sure what to do
    Hey hair breakage is sometimes harmonal and most of the times due to lack of proper dietry habits, so check on one of those, still in any case avoid all type of hard chemicals on the hair, use a shampoo with proper conditioner,



    supplement with external vitamins and minerals with ur normal dietry habits



    use cocunout or olive oil one hr before u do shampoo jst make the oil jst above the room temparetue and massage from roots for 5 mins this may help the roots to strenthn



    :)
    Believe it or not Mayo treatment, regular mayonnaise, with a plastic cap thirty minutes nightly will treat your hair.

    Balsam conditioner helps also.

    Wear a wig for a month or two while you are treating your hair.
    you can get a perm and then keep doing it avey time you wash your hair ...about once a week... that should help smoothen your hair...
    Girl you needs to get you some doctor miracle my hair was doing the same thing and soon as I used it my hair started to grow. trust me all you need to do is buy te doctor miracle products and follow the instructions.

    How to make curly hair wavy?

    I have very thick, curly frizzy hair. I usually straighten it with a flat iron but I'm wondering if there's a way to get it wavy? I mean without curling irons or flat irons.How to make curly hair wavy?
    braid it before you go to sleep and youll get some cute beachy waves.

    also try using a deep moisturising conditioner from a hair salon, it will help reduce frizz.

    happy to help

    xxHow to make curly hair wavy?
    i think so r if u want wavy hair wet your hair and braid it but dont let it dry out braided or else it will get nappy.
    When its what use a straightening mousse and finger it through, it'll relax the curls, and while it's drying kind of comb them through
    you can check google
    Wash your hair and braid it when it is wet , keep it for 5 - 6 hours



    open the braid and u will get nice sexy waves



    then apply a hair spray to hold ur hair

    How can I wear my hair?

    I have VERY tight curly, thick, very short hair that is in irregular layers. :/ My longest layer of hair when curly reaches my shoulders %26amp; my shortest layer is to my ears. :///// When my hair is straight though, it reaches an inch past my collarbone. I'm trying to grow my hair out so please don't suggest me straightening my hair with a flat iron, curling it, or using chemicals in it. The only type of heat I'll use on my hair is a blow dryer. Well, I wear my hair in a loose ponytail everyday because when I leave it out, no lie it looks like a hot mess. :( I'm not even just saying that people tell me (including my family lol) %26amp; I personally don't like how it loooks out. So, I'm tired of wearing it the same way everyday. Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance...How can I wear my hair?
    Purchase some pretty hair clips and head bands. Heres a link to a girl on youtube who only wears natural hairstyles (no heat)

    http://www.youtube.com/user/PRETTYDIMPLE鈥?/a>How can I wear my hair?
    mouse, hairspray and gel work wonders. when u get out the shower get a handful of mouse and run it over the hair, it'll look wet all day but it will still hold if u put a bit of hairspray. you can also do a thin headband that can separate the wet look from the front if you do the front dry and flat ironed, like if you had some kind of bangs swept to the side.
    ok i have the same problem...im ck and white and i have back people hair..usually i only wear my hair in a pony tail with a head band....my hair is getting shorter because im straightening my hair too much so i can only suggest if you are black like me then there is this grease for hair not grease for cooking but anyway you can find this in any store really....i got a relaxer u can also find this in almost any store in the health and beauty section this will flaten your hair so u can do so much more with your hair it kinda straightens it without burning and it costs about $10.00
