Straightening curly hair...?

I have curly hair, and i like it curly, but i want to wear it straight every now and then. Is there a way to straighten my hair for the day?

I have a conair straightener, it isn't super great, but it's what i got. I take my shower the night before school starts, then in the morning it is a bit damp, i only need to wake up 30 minutes before i have to go... is there a way to fit it into my usual routine?

Straightening curly hair...?

I'd say shower when you get home from school, let your hair dry mostly naturally and if it's still damp then blow dry it (always going down the hair, never up) and then use a protection spray and straighten it at night. Then in the morning, brush it and just neaten it up. That's what I do, my hair is really long and quite curly but it's straightens out well like that. I have GHDs but yours should still work. Also I use John Frieda Frizz-Ease Secret Weapon for any fly aways =) Good luck!

Straightening curly hair...?

1)Try getting a straightening balm, or other hair product, that you can get at a drugstore for really cheap.

2)Also, try blow drying your hair, with a thick bristol brush, and as your drying, brush your hair straight. It will deffinitly help to make it straighter.

3)Try straightening your hair before bed.Let it totally cool off before going to bed. Then, when you wake up, you just have to touch it up. And, your not in a rush. Thats what i do!

Good Luck =)

Straightening curly hair...?

You can get a straightening lotion from any drug store, then section off your hair and straighten it in smaller sections.

It may take awhile but you should be able to do it in 20 minutes if not less.

I have long curly hair i need help.?

my hair is dry, long curly, i used about a year ago a product for black peoples hair so i can make it straight it made my hair dry and a little straighter but since that day shampoo makes my hair hard and notty , evry time i see other people i feel like evry day their hair is growing but mine is always the same, i wash my hair evry day, i had never cutted my split ends but until almost like a month ago.. i need help on how to grow my hair faster( shampoos,conditioners,vitamins.. etc..). pls help.

I have long curly hair i need help.?

Try infusium 23, that stuff does wonders for your hair. They have shampoo, conditioner and leave in treatment. I just use the leave in treatment and it makes my hair really soft and manageable. I have used other products and nothing else is like infusium. What i do is get a spray bottle and fill it half full of water and half of the leave in treatment and spray it in my hair. But you dont have to dilute it, up to you. Another thing that will really help is getting your hair trimmed every three months, make sure you have all the split ends trimmed off as though. Hope this helps.

I have long curly hair i need help.?

Cutting split ends is very important--do it often.

Try several conditioners. Different things work better for different people, you will just have to try and see what works for you. Try each one for about two weeks, and remember the results. You should eventually find one that works very well.

However, I know a woman who hasn't cut her hair since 1960, and it hangs to the middle of her back. Her hair just won't grow any longer. It's possible yours has reached its limit.

I have long curly hair i need help.?

I have curly hair and I despise it :( and it's really dry as well. I started using Garnier Fructice "sleek and shine" CONDITIONER (the shampoo is good too, but the conditioner moisturizes your hair). It helps my hair not get tangled both in the shower and afterwards when I brush it out and dry it. If I use anything else besides Garnier my hair is impossibly tangly (unless it's a SUPER THICK really nice conditioner). Hope this helps.

I have long curly hair i need help.?

If you've ever heard of sally's beauty supply, go there and you'll find this hemp shampoo and conditioner, its actually made out of a pot plant, but it not only makes your hair healthier and stronger, but it leaves it silky smooth no joke. Works great! =)

I have long curly hair i need help.?

There's no real way to help your hair grow (trust me, I've asked), but you can take some mineral pills made for nail and hair growth. From what I've been told they don't really help, but it'll make ya feel a little better.

I have long curly hair i need help.?

if you have long hair, washing every day will keep it dry and cause more breakage and split ends. if you condition every day, but not shampoo, that's good. you might even put your hair up in a shower cap every other day or two. this will allow your scalp's natural oils to moisturize more of your hair. also, you want to trim it when you notice split ends. trimming hair, stimulates growth

I have long curly hair i need help.?

you should get a trim once every two months don't brush your hair when its wet don't use a blow dryer and don't wash your hair everyday

I have long curly hair i need help.?

i think vitamin e works for hair but i don't think it will help much. PS. there's nothing wrong with being balled. I'm sorry

I have long curly hair i need help.?

well i also have long curly hair and what i can advice you is trim the ends every 4 weeks or earlier if really dry.use a moisturizing mask once a week preferably one that has amino acids and dont use anything on your hair that has alcohol, it only dries it out more.vitamins u can take are biotin and drink alot of milk.

I have long curly hair i need help.?

Infusium has a leave in conditioner that works well. You may want to try Biolage Shampoo and conditioner they have a moisturizing formula..you can get it at a beauty supply store or even target. Also, curly hair is naturally dry I would suggest washing every other day..

when you cut your hair cut it in a simple short not layered cut then apply gel and make it so that it is natural..with curls! If you have or if you prefer straight hair cut you hair in layers with light and dark highlights...dont go over board though!! Then to even it out get side bangs to make the look pro and bold!

Curly short hair styles?

It all depends on your face shape. If your face is long and slender or a little bit double chinned, it's not a good choice probably. But, if your face is kind of small and slender, you'll probably look good.

IDK, look at yourself in a mirror and see yourself with shorter hair.

Does it look good???

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

i am suffering from telogen effluvium and while i know it is temporary hair loss, i would like to shave it off and start fresh...but i have curly hair and i love it, will my hair grow back curly? will it grow back at all? does age effect your growth because i'm 20 years old. finally, have any of you ever tried shaving your head? any response will be appreciated.

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

Yes, your hair will grow back. This condition usually affects women between 30-60 yrs. old though.

"No treatment is needed for most cases of telogen effluvium. Remember that the hairs fall out when a new hair growing beneath it pushes it out. Thus with this type of hair loss, hair falling out is a sign of hair regrowth. As the new hair first comes up through the scalp and pushes out the dead hair a fine fringe of new hair is often evident along the forehead hairline."

"Chronic telogen effluvium is recently recognized and not uncommon. It often occurs in women who previously had very thick hair in their teens and twenties and still have an apparently normal head of hair to a casual observer. It affects the entire scalp with no obvious cause apparent. It usually affects women of 30 to 60 years of age, starts suddenly and has a tendency to fluctuate for a period of years. The degree of shedding is usually severe in the early stages and the hair may come out in handfuls. It does not cause complete baldness and does appear to be self-limiting in the long run."

I've never shaved my head. I don't think I could get away w/ it - my features are too kid like %26amp; I'm not sure I have a nicely shaped scalp.

Instead of shaving - consider getting a cute pixie cut that can be touseled.

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

i am very sorry to hear of your condition, just answered a question about shaving my head a longtime ago. you should check other's like you, and talk to a doctor, and a salon first.

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

im not really sure but i heard that if you have cancer and naturally curly hair and it all falls out then when it grows back your hair will be straight

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

I've not had to deal with this telogen but what I've read, You should have regrowth in 3 months and it should come back with the original condition it was before it left.

I have naturally curly hair and if I knew that it would grow back within a week, I would go bald, just to say I did.

I think it would be cute. Some girls / women who are bald due to cancer, are very beautiful people.

Also, this telogen affects people of all ages.

Hope this helped you some. Good Luck in shaving if you do. Remember, beauty is in the eye of the beholder but Bald women Rock !

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

If you will shave your hair, it will grow again thicker than before.

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

well i know it isnt exactly the same but my grandmother had breast cancer and lost all of her hair. i think it was naturally wavy but it grew back like really curly.

so it will probably grow back the same.

either way... a woman that survives any kind of cancer is beautiful and strong.

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

Oh, it'll grow back. It'll take a LONG time, but it'll grow back pretty curly. So go shave your head! Buy fancy scarves or wigs! Just have fun!

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

Hair texture changes about every 7 years anyhow so there is no guarantee you wold have curly hair forever anyhow! There are so many cute and sexy short hair cuts. You will have so much fun with it growin back in. I say go for it! It's only hair!

I have curly hair, and i want to shave it all off?

How do you brush curly hair properly?

I've heard brushing or combing your hair while wet is a big no-no but when you have curly hair and brush it dry it tends to turn into a big frizz ball instead of natural looking ringlets and curls.

The only way I've figured out how to deal with this dilemma is by brushing my hair in the shower while conditioner is it. The comb glides through my hair and when dried naturally I get all curl instead of frizz.

Unfortunately my drain is getting clogged constantly now... Does anyone know of a better way to brush/comb curly hair?

How do you brush curly hair properly?

when you hair has the conditioner in it use a wide tooth comb to comb out the tangles and then rinse. When you get out of the shower let your hair air dry for a little bit than finish combing it out with a wide tooth comb.

The best brush for a girl with curly hair is a Denman brush. You can use this in the shower if you really needed too.

How do you brush curly hair properly?

You can always try wetting your brush before brushing your hair. Or while your hair is wet; blow dry it while brushing it and it'll give your hair a natural curly wave. It also helps if you buy the right shampoo and conditioner, try a type of shampoo and conditioner that has no perfume in it, that might also help :)%26lt;3

How do you brush curly hair properly?

good luck

How do you brush curly hair properly?

Oh no! Don't. It breaks it off. Instead, get a wide toothed COMB and comb through it while wet. Then mosturize a lot.

How do you brush curly hair properly?

There really is no way to stop the shedding all together, but there is ways to lessen the amount. What I do for my curly hair is brush it in the shower while there is conditioner in it. However instead of using a brush, I usually use my fingers, spreading them wide. This way, my hair is still getting untangled, but I'm keep less hair in my drain. Also with using your fingers, you can be extra gentle. Besides brushing your hair while it's wet is very risky because wet hair is very fragile therefor when you brush it, it snaps easily leading to fizz, etc. You can always use an extremely wide comb, but it's hard to find one wide enough, but if you do, you are good to go. Curly hair is so hard to manage, but when done, it's gorgeous as we know! Good luck!!!
