Soul Glow</p><br /><br /> <strong>I've got naturally curly hair but for the last 18 months have been straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Get a leave in treatment to start with to repair the damage. next up try some frizz ease by john frieda. i swear by it! i use the anti frizz serrum and dream curls spray. works wonders on my frizz!</p><br /><br /> <strong>I've got naturally curly hair but for the last 18 months have been straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>since you have been straightening your hair for quite a while, it is probably dried out.</p><br /><br /> <p> i suggest that first you go to a salon and get some sort of hydrating mask or treatment for your hair.</p><br /><br /> <p> and as for products, i'd suggest either</p><br /><br /> <p> herbal essences none of your frizzness or herbal essences totally twisted.</p><br /><br /> <strong>I've got naturally curly hair but for the last 18 months have been straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>u dont have to buy this...u can go bald then grow it back</p><br /><br /> <strong>I've got naturally curly hair but for the last 18 months have been straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>dont do frizzease. i hate that crap.... the dove products work wonders. i have horrible frizzy curly hair.</p><br /><br /> <strong>I've got naturally curly hair but for the last 18 months have been straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i think your curly hair will be back for some time. from my experience i naturally have straight black hair. but i made it curly and bronze and then my hair was really dry. and then i went to sauna room and put a lot of hair conditioner on my hair.. unbelievable i've been doing that for only 2-3 days,, my hair became healthy again.</p><br /><br /> <strong>I've got naturally curly hair but for the last 18 months have been straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>John Frieda makes an anti-frizz... um... It's called "Curl Around" shampoo and conditioner. Besides smelling amazing, it really does smooth out frizz, and if your hair is naturally prone to curls, it will help bring them back. It's not the best curling shampoo out there, but it's pretty good for your hair and it's not horridly expensive. (Dove is good and moisturizing, but it will leave nasty build-up in your hair.) When you get out of the shower, let your hair dry to dampness and mix a little bit of gel with some leave-in conditioner and spray it in your hair. Lightly comb through and tussle it. After that you could try winding your damp hair around some foam rollers - the foam will be gentle on your damaged hair. If you're having frizz problems, I'd stay away from a curling iron. It will only make it worse :)</p><br /><br /> <strong>I've got naturally curly hair but for the last 18 months have been straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>try some frizz ease by john frieda, i swear by it!</p><br /><br /> <strong>I've got naturally curly hair but for the last 18 months have been straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>my friend said john frieda is really good</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-92000929743584545982009-10-07T03:03:00.001-07:002009-10-07T03:03:26.357-07:00Straighten hair - reason to hair loss ?<p>i straighten my hair before 2 weeks.</p><br /><br /> <p> last few days. many of my hair are lossing and ,i think it looks broken in the starting where the new hair grown.</p><br /><br /> <p> will shaving / cutting the hair will help ?? </p><br /><br /> <p> any ideas please ? how can i get more density hair ?</p><br /><br /> <p> i'am 17yo. </p><br /><br /> <p> :-(</p><br /><br /> <p> Thanks for reading this.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Straighten hair - reason to hair loss ?</strong><br /><br /> <p>the fact that you straightened your hair could have something to do with it falling out now... and as for your suggestion about cutting it off.. i think that would probably help.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Straighten hair - reason to hair loss ?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i straighten my hair months ago but i dont think i had hair loss...</p><br /><br /> <strong>Straighten hair - reason to hair loss ?</strong><br /><br /> <p>People like animals have a shedding time and it is now ...

Hai ceramic straightener and long hair about 5-7 inches past my shoulders. is there a certain way i should straighten my hair to get it thefullest and shiniest it can be. b.c sometimes when i straighten my hair it gets kind of piecy instead of full and smooth. i know my hair wont be perfect, but any tips?</p><br /><br /> <p> btw: i know how to straighten hair, i know in layers and small sections. but anything beyond that?</p><br /><br /> <strong>How to straighten hair to make it full and shiny?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I am telling you from personal experience... especially if you live in the high static part of the country right now (Kentucky), when using your ceramic flat iron, I would suggest instead of going out and buying high priced pre-treatment for your hair at a salon, go to a Walmart or any drugstore that has a nice selection of hair products (CVS or Walgreen閳ユ獨) and look for John Frieda閳ユ獨 Frizz Ease and a good shampoo for shine. A lot of dullness comes from the type of shampoo we use, so if you want volume and shine, find (and stick with) a good shampoo and conditioner that "clarifies". AVOID PANTENE PRODUCTS. Even a professional will tell you this. They smell nice, but cause buildup on the scalp and hair causing a dull tone. You might find Color Vive has products for all ranges of hair and problems. There is one with an antioxidant feature that strengthens and also adds shine. It has worked for me... and I have processed (color treated) hair. After you wash your hair and your hair is still wet, add a dab of the John Frieda閳ユ獨 Original Frizz Ease. From the length of your hair, I would suggest 2 quarter sizes if your hair is thick. One if it is fine in texture. Blow dry and then straighten. The Frizz Ease works great with the iron unlike anything I have ever used before and it doesn't cause me to break out. Follow it up with a glossing spray my John Frieda. You can't go wrong with these products for the price. I have used them for years and highly recommend them. So for the volume and the shine, there you go. </p><br /><br /> <p> P.S. If you want to test drive a new product, Loreal閳ユ獨 site is currently running free samples of the Vive Pro Nutri Gloss. Look at the bottom right hand side of the link page for sample sign-up.

Whether you perm or relax, the chemicals break the chemical bonds in your hair and weaken the shaft (your hair is comprised of dead cells anyway), leading to extensive breakage with prolonged use. Then come the products that you have to keep buying to keep your hair from breaking. Having a relaxer is costly, isn't it?</p><br /><br /> <p> Did your stylist tell you all this when you got your services?</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can i curl my chemically straightened hair with a curling iron?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Yes but you will need to use low heat.</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-92038157785127897052009-10-07T03:02:00.001-07:002009-10-07T03:02:24.391-07:00Can i water-proof my straightened hair?<p>ok, so i have curly-ish hair that i straighten. but, when i go swimming, i don't want it to curl up again. is there any way to prevent this?</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can i water-proof my straightened hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Hi</p><br /><br /> <p> There is no way you can do this im afraid. However there are things you can do to help.</p><br /><br /> <p> Wear your hair up in a high pony tail when swimming. This will stop too much water going on it in the first place which will limit the frizz/curling up again. Also wear a thick hair band around your head.</p><br /><br /> <p> You can also buy products which protect the hair from moisture... but an actual swimming pool is moisture to the extreme and they are more meant for humid weather, light rain etc.... so they will help in these circumstances.</p><br /><br /> <p> GHD protection spray contains a light hairspray type product which helps for the above conditions - humid weather etc. Its not a mircle but its the best ive tried in helping keeping hair straight. Also apply a de frizz serum.</p><br /><br /> <p> X</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can i water-proof my straightened hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I don't think that you can. Because once it's wet, it's wet. Sorry, but i don't think they have it yet.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can i water-proof my straightened hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>ok well i dont no anything that can "waterproof" you hair but there is something that is like permenantly straighten it. my hair was always naturlly curly but then when i bought this stuff my hair is always straight even after i get out of the water and it is surprisingly cheap like im talking 5$ for this and it works great im not quite shure what its called but its in where you can like perm your own hair and color your hair and that place</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can i water-proof my straightened hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>you can get your hair permanently straightened at a salon?</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can i water-proof my straightened hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Ask a black girl how to keep curly hair straight...You will get an answer but you may not like it...When ever I get my hair straighten to keep it straight I put bees wax in it...This will keep you hair straight but white people don't usualy use stuff like this in their hair because you have to wash it all the time...but it will keep curly hair straight...lol</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-9795521109431924722009-10-07T03:02:00.000-07:002009-10-07T03:02:08.386-07:00How bad are chemicals that straighten hair?<p>i have never straightened my hair and i want to . i heard irons are bad bcz of the heat but are the chemical creams worse??</p><br /><br /> <strong>How bad are chemicals that straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>They can severely dry out your hair. If you want chemical straightening don't do it at home. A stylist will give you the right concentration plus a deep conditioning afterward that will minimize the damage. Still, it will be weaker after the treatment than before, because the chemical breaks down your hair structure and re-bonds it to make it straight. Do it if you want, but be sure to treat your hair carefully and use good conditioning products to protect it afterward.</p><br /><br /> <p> Also there is the benefit that you will use the iron a lot less if the hair is straighter to begin with. You still might use it some though.</p><br /><br /> <strong>How bad are chemicals that straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>use the creams</p><br /><br /> <strong>How bad are chemicals that straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Not so bad, they used to have lye- agh</p><br /><br /> <strong>How bad are chemicals that straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Not exactly sure. But what they say that its guaranteed if you'll spoil your hair if you straighten it. However you can help by using conditioners.</p><br /><br /> <strong>How bad are chemicals that straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>If you are african american and you want to straighten your hair start witha mild relaxer like just for me or go to a salon.

Born with an affro and have allways hated it, but was wondering if anyone has tried chemical hair straightening and if its really worth the hefty price tag</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I know some friends who used chemical straighteners and they work. For a long time.</p><br /><br /> <p> I'd really like to look into this, too. I'm white and I have afro hair, it's so annoying.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>it does work, but it can come out looking sorta flat and gross</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Yeah it works but it frazzles your hair : ( </p><br /><br /> <p> My friend had it and it made her hair look lifeless.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>it works and your hair will stay straight for a few months, but it can get veeerry dry. just deep condition</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>depends on how afroish ur hair is</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yes but i wouldnt do it</p><br /><br /> <p> because i might damage your hair to the max</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Yes i use it.</p><br /><br /> <p> It can make your hair pretty dry but not lifeless.</p><br /><br /> <p> My hair still has bounce. If you do do it you have to remember to keep your hair moisturized otherwise it will break off.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yes, it works. but be careful. make sure you do not have any sensitivities to the chemicals. and be sure that the person you have do your hair has plenty of experience with your hair type. see if you can talk to or meet some of their past and present customers. if you do it yourself, make sure you follow directions and patch test. if you are not careful, you could end up bald with scabs on your head. I made mistake of using someone who did not know what they were doing and was just starting out as a hair dresser, and she nearly ruined my scalp, permanently!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>someone i know just got is straightened and her hair was EXTREMELY curly before. it looks really good. It was flat for the first day or two but after you wash and dry it yourself, it looks really good. the only bad part is that it grows in curly, so if you dont get it touched up every couple of months it will be half straight and half curly.</p><br /><br /> <p> hope that helped</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yea it works i know what you mean i hate my hair too.. i have a friend who does it and i really want to...</p><br /><br /> <p> i have to straighten my hair every morning and i hate it...</p><br /><br /> <p> but i do know it works</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i got it done this summer..nd i lov it..its awesome..my hair use to be like extra curly nd extra puffy..nd i have a lot of hair too..nd yea basically it works..it came out pin straight...nd it still is like that..nd its been 4 months..oh nd its not dry...or anything...it feels awesome to have straight hair!!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i guess it all depends on your hair type. My cousin had it done a while ago, and for the 7-8 months that it lasted it looked wonderful (then again, she loves anything that adds volume to her hair, so i couldn't tell you if it was "dead and dangling" or not)</p><br /><br /> <p> But there is also another girl I know who had it done a month or so ago and it looks terrible!.</p><br /><br /> <p> If you still are considering getting it done, I would do a little research (sorry). If you can find a salon that is professional and specializes in processes like that, go for it. Otherwise, I'd wait and invest in a really good flat iron.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i put relaxers/chemical straightners in my hair...mom used to put them in my hair when i was younger because that was easier for her to deal with. as a child, it was easy to put my hair up in braids, but when i got to be school age, wearing braids was too "kiddish"...mom's option was to have a beautician relax my hair...to this day, i have continued to put relaxers in my hair. some ppl cant put them in their hair..i have never experienced hair loss from relaxers, so i cant say anything bad about them. i dont go to beauticians, i do the home kits, and still no problem....its cheaper doing them yourself, but if its your first time, i would go to a beautician.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does chemical hair starightening really work?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Chemical Hair Straightening</p><br /><br /> <p> http://geebal.blogspot.com/2007/11/chemi...</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-23860719887553455652009-10-07T03:00:00.001-07:002009-10-07T03:00:30.537-07:00My sister-in-law is looking to straighten her hair without much damage.?<p>My sister-in-law has shoulder length hair and would like to know what products she should use that will cause minimal damage. For those of you who straighten hair, either for others or yourself, please let me know what products that have worked best for you. And can you give me any tips of the trade you know that will give her the best result. And if you could also tell me step by step instructions on pre and post care of her hair.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My sister-in-law is looking to straighten her hair without much damage.?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Well..I use a Conair straightener..its not expensive its as great as ones that air..Also, Bed Head is a good product just for like frizzy-ness and such, any thing that holds fly-away hair from..in fact flying away! Also I would suggest Redken as a shampoo, its not expensive either.</p><br /><br /> <p> She could always get a chemical straigten, which would leave it straight for like 3 months or perm. straightening..which is..perm. Good luck</p><br /><br /> <strong>My sister-in-law is looking to straighten her hair without much damage.?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I have a chi straightener which I absolutely love! It's the best, it works so well and it doesn't damage my hair. It has ceramic plates, that don't rip or burn hair. I just recommend that she doesn't straighten her hair everyday because that is usually what caues the damage. Chi's are expensive (a little under $200), but the amount I use it is worth it. Chi also have a line of hair products that you can use with the straightener to prevent damage.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My sister-in-law is looking to straighten her hair without much damage.?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i use a straining iron i think thats good</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-73822573426386250262009-10-07T03:00:00.000-07:002009-10-07T03:00:14.772-07:00My hair is super damaged.

It gets all frizzy and doesn't even curl or get wavy. I straighten my hair every day (%26amp; blow dry). I can tell me hair has gotten very thin. I think it's gonna fall out. I hate it. I have lots of split ends and my hair just breaks. I need a new way to do my hair without straightening it or scrunching it.</p><br /><br /> <p> Any oppions?</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is super damaged. Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day. Its gonna fall out!</strong><br /><br /> <p>Let it go natural for a few and put in in a poney tail or a headband!!</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is super damaged. Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day. Its gonna fall out!</strong><br /><br /> <p>It wont fall out, get it trimmed so the damaged ends are cut off and it will look healthier and more volume.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is super damaged. Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day. Its gonna fall out!</strong><br /><br /> <p>don't straighten it for awhile and then try it.</p><br /><br /> <p> Your hair is dry from straighting it and winter is coming up so you probable should not straighten it at all during the winter.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is super damaged. Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day. Its gonna fall out!</strong><br /><br /> <p>just let it dry naturally for a while and get a different kind of shampoo that is especially for dry and damaged hair. dont do anything to it and just put it up or wear it natural with anti-frizz product in it, i'm sure it's not dreadful natural. if you have side bangs only straighten your side bangs and if you dont want to wear it up in a bun or a pony tail then wear it down with a band</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is super damaged. Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day. Its gonna fall out!</strong><br /><br /> <p>get a hair cut to get rid of the split ends. and just let your hair air dry. also try using volumizing shampoo if ur hair is thin. also they make shampoo for damaged hair. and if u continue to straighten ur hair, use products that help protect ur hair.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is super damaged. Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day.

Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day. Its gonna fall out!</strong><br /><br /> <p>You are damaging your hair, if you put heat on it everyday that's not good. You need to go to a salon, have them cut off the dead ends-because your hair will not become healthy w/ split ends. They will condition your hair and give it new life. Don't use heat to curl your hair, do it the old fashion way-rollers! They work w/out damaging your hair at all.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is super damaged. Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day. Its gonna fall out!</strong><br /><br /> <p>Trim the ends. Don't straighten it for a few days. And maybe you need to change the kind of shampoo that you are currently using.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is super damaged. Tried scrunching it. Doesn't work. I straighten it every day.

Hair won't straighten!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Maybe you should try straightening your hair when it has more natural oils. It's hard to do when you just got out of the shower or blow dried it. Wait a few more hours or days before you use the straightener. A CHI?! Wow, that's nice. I only have a Conair, but it still works for me!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Help! Hair won't straighten!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Invest in some GHD hair straighteners- well worth it.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Help!

Hair won't straighten!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>If you earn enough money go to the Walgreen's nearest to you and buy a hair straightener.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Help! Hair won't straighten!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I have perfected the Chi straigthening game. First, when drying your hair, use a dab of Chi smoothing serum. Apply a second dab once hair is completely dry. Then, it is a MUST that you use a styling spray. It protects your hair from the Chi's heat, it adds great shine to your hair, and it aids with the straightening process. I recommend "Soya Want Flat Hair Spray," by Healthy Sexy Hair. Then, you need to section your hair and straigthen in using small sections. It works best if you pile all your hair on top of your head with a clip and single out a section at a time with a comb. Spray each section, use the Chi, and in no time, you will have great, straight hair!</p><br /><br /> <p> Good Luck!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Help! Hair won't straighten!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>just leave it for a few hours by towel drying it </p><br /><br /> <p> and then go layer by layer(clip up all of your hair except the bottem layer...when that's done take downa nother...and so on....and so on</p><br /><br /> <strong>Help!

But most answers have said that my hair is being damaged and if a good conditioner would help please tell me what ones you suggest I use. I'm getting really stressed out and worrried that I've damaged my hair!!</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>Hi Hannah</p><br /><br /> <p> I have used straighteners for 3 years+ and according to my hairdresser my hair is in good condition.</p><br /><br /> <p> Heres what I do:</p><br /><br /> <p> Condition my hair every time I wash. I use Kerastase shampoo and conditioner.</p><br /><br /> <p> When straightening (and this is really important!) run the straighteners through the hair quickly and repeatedly, do not hold them on the hair in one place.</p><br /><br /> <p> Using a hot style constructor can help.</p><br /><br /> <p> Put the hairdryer on a cool setting and blast through the hair at the end of the styling.</p><br /><br /> <p> Get hair trimmed regularly so split ends don't have a chance.</p><br /><br /> <p> I use GHD's. Check out their website for tips.</p><br /><br /> <p> If your hair is damaged, you may need to have it cut. You didn't mention if you bleach or dye your hair. This may have an impact on the condition.</p><br /><br /> <p> Wee pet, don't worry, a good hairdresser should be able to sort things out for you.</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>cut it and stop using the straighteners.</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>go get like an inch of your hair cut off to get rid of any split ends, then use pantene conditioner for damaged hair. When applying it let it sit in your hair for 3-5 minuites. Put extra at the ends.</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>I've had exactly the same problem - try using Charles Worthington Moisture-Seal (in square yellow bottle), it's fantastic and not too strong (i.e. will soften and heal your hair without grease)</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>Get an inch or 2 cut off to get rid of fried ends and then use Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Deep Conditionar. It can cure up to 2 yrs of damage in just a month.</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>you really need to get your hair cut and stop using the straightners as much give your hair a chance no amount of conditioner will repair your damaged hair</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>I use ghd straigheners every day and had my hair cut last week, my hairdresser told me that the underneath was so damaged by them that he had to cut it shorter than the rest of my hair just to get all the split/damaged ends off, conditioner isnt going to help, have to get all the damaged bits cut off and stop using them or dramatically cut down %26amp; always use a good protector, the one by Toni %26amp; Guy is good but won't stop the damage!</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>try using heat protecting syrum before you use the straighteners.</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>first off get a hair cut because if you don't then the split ends will move further up your hair, damaging it even more and then you'll have to cut of even more. Secondly try a special conditioner such as frizz-ease's straightening one which is designed specifically for use with hair straighteners so it will protct your hair. Also use a deep conditioning treatment at least once a week. If you can stay off the hair straighteners for a while too just to let your hair recover.</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>1. Get to the hairdresser %26amp; get your ends cut and an intensive contioning treatment</p><br /><br /> <p> 2. when straightening your hair in future use a heat protection spray (toni %26amp; guys is fab!)</p><br /><br /> <p> 3. Use an intesive moisturising conditioner on your hair once/twice a week (I use Nicky Clarke, and V05 hot oil treatments)</p><br /><br /> <p> 4. Dont brush your hair too hard!</p><br /><br /> <p> 5. Use a strenghtening shampoo %26amp; conditioner, fructis do a fab one! i think its called Strength and Shine</p><br /><br /> <p> 6. think of your hair like you do your skin, if your skin was cracked and really dry, you wouldnt leave it like that and carry on would you?! Look after your hair and straightening shouldnt be a problem, i've been straighetneing mine for about 4 years now and my hair is always gloss and super straight purely because i look after it!</p><br /><br /> <p> Dont stress out, treat it to a big fat pile of intensive conditioner and maybe give up the straightening for a day or two (sorry! have it tousled or something, scrunch some mouse in your hair twist your hair up in a bun, let it dry naturally, after about an hour or two take it out run your fingers through it spritz lightly with hairspray and ta-dah! beautiful tousled hair)</p><br /><br /> <p> Better to have a few bad hair days than have your hair fall out!!</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>superdrug do good hair conditioning treatments and herbal essences have good conditioners look out for one that says for dry damaged hair and ones for damaged hair by straighteners you should always use a heat protective spray kertase (i don't know how to spell it) have this thing for people addicted to using straighteners etc. why don't you get you hair permanently straightened that way you aren't getting it done every day.</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>I find the best thing for heat or colour damaged hair is something called the Australian 3-minute Restorative Conditioner. It comes in a big bottle or little sachets for single use. Try a sachet first - wash your hair as normal and use this as a conditioner. It says to leave for 3 minutes and then rinse. I usually leave it on for about 5-6 minutes. It really works wonders!! (Boots, Superdrug and Sainsburys usually sell it.)</p><br /><br /> <strong>So I think my hair is damaged from straighteners, what conditioner is the best to use?????????</strong><br /><br /> <p>Straightening Addict Conditioner from the Trevor Sorbie range.</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-43435909055274643172009-10-07T02:59:00.001-07:002009-10-07T02:59:26.624-07:00How do you keep your hair from getting frizzy when going out?<p>every time i go out to a frat or a club, within about a half hour, my perfect hair style is ruined and my hair is frizzy again. i have spent loads of money on hair straightening products that work well during the day but i need something that will keep my hair nice when i go out to a frat or club at night.</p><br /><br /> <strong>How do you keep your hair from getting frizzy when going out?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Wash your hair in cold water and you will have less frizz!

My hair is VERYYYYY wavy. I have to straighten it everyday for school. I don't want to damage my hair anymore and I want to stop straightening my hair everyday. should i get i done?</p><br /><br /> <strong>Shouold I get my hair chemically Straightened?</strong><br /><br /> <p>either way you're gonna damage it. stick with your natural hair! it's what makes you you and wavy hair is cute!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Shouold I get my hair chemically Straightened?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yea my friend did it and it looked so good</p><br /><br /> <strong>Shouold I get my hair chemically Straightened?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Noooo. Chemicals are so unhealthy for your hair, hun.</p><br /><br /> <p> I used to have the exact same (thick, shoulder length, brown, layered) hair before I cut it short. Just thin it out a little bit, but don't straighten it! Your waves are unique, and I bet you look great with them. But if you really want straight hair, it would be worth it in the long run just to straighten it everyday. Say no to chemicals ;P</p><br /><br /> <strong>Shouold I get my hair chemically Straightened?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I would suggest finding a hair style that complements your hair type. You also need to wash your hair with a high ph balanced shampoo every seven to ten days. Try using a shampoo for dry or damaged hair. Always, always use a conditioner because your hair is damaged for sure. Your hair will be way more manageable and you won't have to straighten your hair everyday. After you get your hair back on track you should not have to use the straighten comb. You will be down to once a week if that.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Shouold I get my hair chemically Straightened?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Actually, if you find a good salon, it might be quite worth doing it, since it can be quite troublesome to straightened it everyday. Chemicals are not that bad, if you use the organic types. But do remember to care for your hair even more after you straightened it because it needs more attention than before to prevent damages.</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-64913651735577470062009-10-07T02:58:00.003-07:002009-10-07T02:58:54.582-07:00Will hair straightenening creams cause hair damage and loss?<p>I wanna try a hair straightening cream by Glatt Schwarzkopf, what do you think? I am a male 27 years old</p><br /><br /> <strong>Will hair straightenening creams cause hair damage and loss?</strong><br /><br /> <p>No way, as long as you put a tiny pea size blob in your hair and spred it evenly. </p><br /><br /> <p> Do not put it into your scalp or roots, you won't be straighting them parts!!! Plus there a small chance that it can cause hair loss, not a great amount, maybe a few more strands than usual!

You should try a leave in conditioner like Garnier Sleek and Shine and just blow dry it straight unless your hair is longer then I would suggest using a straightener, but I am just assuming that your hair is short so using the leave in conditioner with the blow drying would do it. Hope that helps!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Will hair straightenening creams cause hair damage and loss?</strong><br /><br /> <p>make sure you use a conditioner if you're going to use hair straightening creams, this will make the shaft of your hair stronger---and more resistant to any damage that could occur....also, if you're going to use a hair straightening tool (like a flat iron), use a heat protectant cream or oil that will help hair to not break.</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-60137041747214199472009-10-07T02:58:00.002-07:002009-10-07T02:58:38.456-07:00Should i permanently straighten my hair or straighten my hair every morning with a flat iron?<p>i've been straightening my hair every morning (with a flat iron) for the past year and i was wondering if i would be better off to permanently straighten it.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Should i permanently straighten my hair or straighten my hair every morning with a flat iron?</strong><br /><br /> <p>well its still not going to be perfectly straight if you get it chemically straightened, so you'll still need touchups with a flat iron. so my chocie would be hte flat iron. al you have to do is jsut use a really good heat protector!</p><br /><br /> <p> =]]</p><br /><br /> <strong>Should i permanently straighten my hair or straighten my hair every morning with a flat iron?</strong><br /><br /> <p>no unless you really sure chemicals can damage your hair</p><br /><br /> <strong>Should i permanently straighten my hair or straighten my hair every morning with a flat iron?</strong><br /><br /> <p>do u like straiting it every morning?</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-61703425022007862462009-10-07T02:58:00.001-07:002009-10-07T02:58:23.468-07:00Question about getting my thick hair professionally straightened?<p>Everyday to every other day i straightened my hair for a solid hour, i have curly hair, yes i have lost a lot of my curls because i have been straightening my hair for 3 years or more.

I started using a hair straightening iron because my hair is so wavy that it is impossible to do without at this length. It looks amazing straight :) but i need some advice since I'm new. </p><br /><br /> <p> 1) I'm straightening it once a day because my hair goes back to usual after it's wet. Is this too often? </p><br /><br /> <p> 2) Do hair straightening creams work well enough so that I can use it often enough to give my hair a break from the iron? can I use it in my hair while ironing? </p><br /><br /> <p> 3) I use a good conditioner very thoroughly. What other products can I use to protect my hair from iron damage? I've heard of balms, heat protection etc,,, but i'm clueless to this stuff </p><br /><br /> <p> 4) My iron can only be used when the hair is dry. Does that mean can't put any heat protection products in my hair at the time of using the iron?</p><br /><br /> <p> So I need all the advice I can get since I'm new (and a guy without the hair expertize ofcourse!) thanks =]</p><br /><br /> <strong>New to straightening irons... help?</strong><br /><br /> <p>What you need is a better hot Iron. Buy one of these, it will keep your hair straight, shinny and very healthy looking until it gets wet!</p><br /><br /> <p> http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search...</p><br /><br /> <p> These are amazing!n You hair will look like comercial hair, the after of course!</p><br /><br /> <strong>New to straightening irons... help?</strong><br /><br /> <p>1) No it's not too often if you're using a high quality ceramic/tourmaline plate iron and a thermal spray.</p><br /><br /> <p> 2) No straightening creams or shampoos will not make your hair straight without styling tools - at least a blow dryer</p><br /><br /> <p> 3) Conditioner doesn't protect you from damage. At cheapest, V05 Miracle Mist does great for thermal protection and holding the straight style.</p><br /><br /> <p> 4) Yes you can apply the thermal protection sprays on your hair at the time of iron use. Just don't soak your hair with it, spray LIGHTLY.</p><br /><br /> <strong>New to straightening irons... help?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I'm a guy who flat irons too :D</p><br /><br /> <p> 1) once a day is too much, you'll be fine if you wash your hair every other day.if it messes up when you sleep on it, try wearing a bandanna to bed to keep your hair put, and touch up any messed up parts in the morning if they are pointing in a bad direction. If you wear a bandanna to bed you will def not need to falt iron your whole head again...</p><br /><br /> <p> 2)try a hair serum of some sort, or a good thermal protecting flat iron spray...go to a salon and ask for suggestions on a product for this, they can be very helpful. Biosilk, or Regis Silk Drops are great.</p><br /><br /> <p> 3)use a moisturizing deep conditioner, or pantene conditioners for moisture.</p><br /><br /> <p> 4)you can put flat ironing products in your hair and immediately flat iron. Thats what they are for. If the product sizzles a bit while you pass over the hair, dont worry about it since that is the product getting seared and not your hair, which is a good thing. Never flat iron if your actual hair is wet from water, and dont saturate your hair in products. it's unessesary. Use a basic amount and use your good judgment. </p><br /><br /> <p> Enjoy your new style i been flat ironing my hair for 3 months now so i'm pro lol</p><br /><br /> <strong>New to straightening irons... help?</strong><br /><br /> <p>why don't you try going to the beauty shop? going to a professional of hair once a week or once every two weeks will help. you need to realize that you can't handle your hair. advice is not what you need! you need professional help!!!!!!!!!!!</p><br /><br /> <strong>New to straightening irons... help?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i Ihave kinda short hair about 3-4 inches long and its also wavy and out of controll...i flat iron every day too</p><br /><br /> <p> 1) Straightening every day isnt too often only if you put the moisture you take out of your hair back in youll be okay.</p><br /><br /> <p> 2) I use bedhead contol freak serum (it fights humidity and is a thermal protector, i use nexxus heat protex as well.</p><br /><br /> <p> 3) I use infusium 23 moistureoligy shampoo and conditioner. It works really well with my hair type also nexxus hummestress is awsome to use.</p><br /><br /> <p> 4) You can use heat protection products at the same time but its better to make sure your hair is dry before ironing(blow dry before). It cuts down on the steam created by the iron which can burn your scalp.</p><br /><br /> <p> I have been flat ironing my hair for almost 5 years now and beleive me it takes alot of experimenting with products to find out which one works the best for you. and make sure you use a good flat iron because the cheap ones will destroy your hair.</p><br /><br /> <p> Good Luck and have fun</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-58264512738885588882009-10-07T02:57:00.003-07:002009-10-07T02:57:50.432-07:00After straightening using flat iron, I get "static" hair for 2 days?<p>I've seen commercials about this a long time ago, but what products should I use to stop this?

The cause of static is charged particles in your hair. Using a hairbrush, straightener, or blowdryer labeled as "Ionic" or using ions. This will positively charge your hair and reduce static. </p><br /><br /> <p> You can also use a thermal product designed to be used prior to heat styling. They usually come in a spray and are applied to roots and all over and then combed through the hair to distribute evenly. Using a product like this will give you vital protection from the damaging heat and help eliminate flyaways.</p><br /><br /> <p> Another alternative to gel is a silicone-based shine product. You either spritz it a few times or rub a few drops between your hands and smooth over hair. It will cut static and give you an added boost of shine without weighing down your hair or making it crunchy.</p><br /><br /> <strong>After straightening using flat iron, I get "static" hair for 2 days?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I used to have the same problem. If you don't already use conditioner, then look for one with heat protection or a conditioner specially for heat damaged hair. Also, make sure hair is completely dry before straightening. If it isn't, your hair will be even more brittle and staticy. Then, you can look for special protecting sprays to prevent damage. I use ion anti frizz solutions heat protection [you can find it at Sally Beauty Supply] Try to avoid putting too much of it in your hair or near your scalp, because it can sometimes make your hair greasy. </p><br /><br /> <p> hope this helps!</p><br /><br /> <p> :]</p><br /><br /> <strong>After straightening using flat iron, I get "static" hair for 2 days?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I use a flat iron on my hair EVERY day. I also have the problem with static. After you straighten your hair, take a USED dryer sheet and stroke it through your hair. Sounds odd...but it does work I swear. I do this everyday after I straighten it and it stays static free. </p><br /><br /> <p> Goodluck :-)</p><br /><br /> <strong>After straightening using flat iron, I get "static" hair for 2 days?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I think you should use some kind of shine spray, comb it, and then flat-iron it, my hair also looks very "stat-icy" after flat-ironing. You could also use a frizz-ease cream called "secret weapon" that help flatten flay-aways ( I think that's what it said...) at it would also probably help to use it after you flat-iron, and don't forget to use a heat-protecting spray so that the flat-iron doesn't damage your hair!!</p><br /><br /> <p> But I don't think there is anti-static stuff that you could put in your hair though...</p><br /><br /> <p> Good Luck!!!</p><br /><br /> <p> :) :) :)</p><br /><br /> <strong>After straightening using flat iron, I get "static" hair for 2 days?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I was fighting static in my hair the other day and a friend told me to rub a fabric softener sheet over and through my hair.

The first time it worked great, by the third time it hardly made an impact and left my hair as it was. How do I resolve this problem?</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>It doesn't seem as if you've overprocessed your hair due to the time frame and the frequency of using a chemical straightener. I'm wondering if you're retouching your new growth or reprocessing your entire head? Oftentimes chemical straighteners are ineffective due to overprocessing, previous damage or relaxer misuse. Do you fit in any of those categories? If so you need a protein treatment immediately so that you can repair the damage to hair and return to your normal tresses. </p><br /><br /> <p> I suggest you consult a professional to rebuild your hair structure and invest in a nonchemical straightener such an maxi glide or ionic iron. </p><br /><br /> <p> The answer to your primary question, yes you can constantly chemically straighten your hair but you have to understand you are using chemicals and you have to be extremely careful while performing the procedure and how you care for your hair between applications.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>try japanese hair straightning.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Have you heard of the bio-ionic hair procedure?

It's just a bit pricey.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>for curly hair, use a relaxer, (it is a black hair care product ), you will need to make sure you us it correctly, and condition your hair extremely well, after wards. it is usually use once a month</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>try it the american way umph..</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>give your hair a rest inbetween or it'll die out on you.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yes.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Inosha, hair is already dead--it's non-living matter because it cannot regenerate itself like, say, skin can. Other than the lack of nerves, hair and skin are very, very similar. See what I'm getting at here? Any sort of chemical process alters the structure of your hair; multiple procedures often end up ineffectual because of this. You're not doing your hair or yourself any favors by frying it--doing so just begets more irreversible problems, as evidenced by your situation.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is it possible to constantly chemically straighten hair?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Stop using the chemical straightening if its no longer taking. and just use a flat iron,</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6109815907232998252.post-57814646680987696042009-10-07T02:57:00.001-07:002009-10-07T02:57:19.911-07:00What can i put in/on my hair to protect it when i am straightening it?<p>ANy beauty products like sprays?</p><br /><br /> <strong>What can i put in/on my hair to protect it when i am straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>if you are talking about a flat iron...i use loreal hot straight balm. it comes in a pink bottle and it really smells good. protects your hair from heat....</p><br /><br /> <strong>What can i put in/on my hair to protect it when i am straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>There are good products out there...ask your hairdresser or browse in a good chemist and find one.</p><br /><br /> <strong>What can i put in/on my hair to protect it when i am straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>There is a Frizz Ease straightening spray. It can help protect it, just make sure that your hair is getting enough moisture because straightening it does dry it out. Also, be careful what kind of straightener you use. The ceramic or teflon ones are pretty good and don't fall for the one's that claim to dry and straighten your hair. That is basically damage city.</p><br /><br /> <strong>What can i put in/on my hair to protect it when i am straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>best thing to do is use titanium straightners</p><br /><br /> <strong>What can i put in/on my hair to protect it when i am straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I don't know about sprays, but there are some shampoos and conditioners on the market that are made to protect the hair from overdrying and splitting when heat is put in it. One of the names of these products is Thermasilk, I think.</p><br /><br /> <strong>What can i put in/on my hair to protect it when i am straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>You did not say how you were going to straighten it. Are you using heat, or chemicals? In any case, there are products that will claim to protect hair, but if you are using heat the protection is only temporary. Heat (curling iron/flat iron) will damage hair, especially if you use it every day. If you have color in your hair, this also adds to the problem. Try to use a good shampoo and conditioner. Also, check out the website of Paula Begoun. She has detailed reviews of products.</p><br /><br /> <strong>What can i put in/on my hair to protect it when i am straightening it?</strong><br /><br /> <p>CHI 44 iron guard</p>nvhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483210545094222244noreply@blogger.com0
