4 Secrets to Straight Hair

I have been fighting curly/wavy hair for years and I have a few "tricks" that help so maybe they can help others on here.

Every 3-4 months, I do a reverse perm. I have tried straightening products but they are too harsh on the hair and cause breakage. Instead, buy a perm solution at your local drugstore and instead of curling the hair, comb it straight with the waving lotion, leave on recommended time and then do the neutralizer as you normally would do. This helps by removing some of the moisture and giving the hair some texture which helps straightening.

Next, Sunsilk has a straightening shampoo and conditioner... use it. Then after washing it, let the hair almost dry naturally before blow drying it straight. I hate flat irons, too damaging but I do use a large curling iron to smoothe out the ends. People can't believe it when I tell them I have curly hair. One other tip. wash and dry your hair every other day to give your hair a break; plus, the hair looks even better on the second day once your natural oils coat the shafts.

Hope this can help someone. Good Luck!

my hair is quite wavy and frizzy as well. wat can i do to make it staight naturally? i mean are there any natural ways to straighten hair without using flat irons?

My hair is awful and a-lot of these haven't worked, what does help is blow drying in sections from root to tip if you reverse it the ends split n frizz also using Sebastians Moisture block and Matrix Sleek line balm work well....

When's the best time to blow dry hair? After shower or the morning after washing it in the evening? Blow drying can be taxing isn't it? My hair is very thick, long, and flies away in all directions. And the salons here say the only remedy left to me is a hair rebond -- which by the way will make me go bankrupt. Any other suggestion?

these tips sounds great but i just can't get my hair grow pass my shoulders. I've tried everything.....I just don't know what to do?

#1 wont work as well as you think, first off if it does get humid and pouffs up it will get 2 times as fluffy if you do that...and then you will look retarded with one huge side and a smaller puffy side...plus a side part looks good but not when you take that big of a section to part...I have alot of thick curly hair so I know all about how big hair can get...even when you start out straight.

I like the lifestyle and idea about four ways to a straight long hair!

I hope there are ways that do not involves blow drying, just using natural ways to get straight hair.

hi everyone!

I want to get this keratin treatment thing. I don't mind getting it blown out, but if it gets humid, I have my long strait hair with like an afro all around it from the outside layer that has frizzed. AWFUL.

I guess i should try those tips..coz my hair looks dry.. :-)

Will I am black with wavy hair, will this work out for me?

Hello henryshantelle13 :)

i find, if you can, wash your hair the night before, let it air dry, and then straighten it the next day with a flat iron. that is less heat on your hair and less damage. Also, i use a heat protection spray on each section as i straighten it (ION, found at Sally's beauty supply for about $6-7) Then, i use the same ION brand spray gloss for shine and those stupid little baby hairs or fly-aways. if your hair gets frizzy like mine does, john freida's frizz ease spray works well too
