Hair Advice?

I used to have shoulder hair length.Now, I have texturizer on my hair,because it's short.I did it myself. and it's fine.Sometimes I braid it.I am tired of the braids and would like to do something different like relax it.I am not sure what to do or which salon to go to because the last time I did my hair was damaged to the point where I had to cut every thing of.Can I relax my hair even though it has texturizer?If so Which relaxing product should i use? oh by the way I have the nappy thick black hair prior to texturizer.If a hair dresser can be recommended, can it be somewhere in Alexandria VA? I need your input thanks.



Hair Advice?

You can't put a relaxer on top of a texturizer. You have to grow out the texturizer just like you'd grow out a relaxer. Go to a beautician (I know, it can be scary) and find out what they think you can do. And blackhairmedia.com discussion forums do have a lot of advice about healthy hair growth.



Hair Advice?

Sorry I live in a different neck of the woods. One things for sure though it sounds like a big no-no using a relaxer on texturized hair! I just use the japanese hair straightening system (straightenex) 'cos I've got thick kinky italian hair. Hope I've helped a bit



Hair Advice?

I am not sure about a relaxer. But here are a couple of sites that has tons of great hair information..blackhairmedia, longhaircare and crown and glory technique. It is all about having healthy hair.

I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

I usually go to the hair dresser and get my hair pressed, but the lady has the tendancy to cut more then is needed when she trims my ends. I am not very good with managing my hair but i think I have a better chance I getting it to grow on my own. I have tried a line of products, but I cant use black hair care products for "nappy" hair since my hair isnt coarse.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

Get some tea tree oil, snd start wearing it natural. Put the tea tree oil on it when it's natural. It should grow your hair, then press it when it grows back. Black hair isn't nappy it's just thicker.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

first of all u shuldnt b so arrogant in sayin "good hair" thats kind of insultin derogatory term anywayz just go to the right stylist and wrap it every night with a thin tooth comb. Report It



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

I am trying to get my hair to grow longer for my wedding, and i am taking vitamin e. It is helping more that i can tell you, not only is my hair growing like crazy, my nails are too! you should give it a try.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

Firstly, there is no such thing as "good" or "bad" hair. There are just a variety of differenct hair types for African hair.



As far as growing your hair, limiting heat is key. You should try wearing a natural look or braids so that your hair can rest from the heat styling.



Also, be sure that you take a multi-vitamin with Iron, Biotin, and Folic Acid. Drink plenty of water and limit stress in your life.



I like to use Ojon products. They work wonders on my hair.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

Please oh please stop saying "good" and "nappy" hair. Our African ancestors thought all hair textures were good. Please remember that.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

I'm also black, and i don't have a pinch of good hair in me. I've been going to a hair shop for a little over a year now, and my hair has grown about 4 inches longer, and I'm still going every 2 weeks.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

Hair grows faster when you trim it, but since you said the lady cuts to much, be overly specific. Tell her exactly what you want and give her a number amount. If this still doesnt work, try someone new. Take a chance.



Good luck! =)



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

you cant make your hair grow longer at all...the only thing you should do is take these vitamins for hair, nails, and skin...these make it stronger so there is a less possibility from damage and breakage.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

HAIR DOES NOT GO FASTER WHEN U TRIM IT ITS GROWING FROM THE ROOTS NOT THE END!! BUT I HAVE HEARD TAKE VITAMIN E



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

What is "good" hair? Do you mean that you hair is naturally curly and has a soft texture? You can still use productd for black hair, you just don't need the relaxers or products used with relaxers. Getting you hair pressed can be just as damaging as getting relaxers if you are doing it really often. My daughter has naturally curly hair and I used Cream of Nature shampoo and conditioner for her hair and I oil her scalp with Coconut oil. You need to find a good shampoo and conditioner, you will also need to deep condition at least twice month. To recommend a shampoo for you I would really need to see your hair though. Make sure to keep your hair moisturized and get you ends trimmed every 6-8 weeks, if your current hair dresser is cutting to much hair, I suggest you find a need one. I prefer a male hair dresser because they tend to understand the concept of trim more than the female hair dressers, but that's just my opinion. There are a lot of options for natural hair now, and your hair doesn't have to be course to use them.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

There is no such thing as "good hair", we all have some sort of issue with our hair....



Try water based oil lotions, I can't use anything heavy either. If your hair isn't coarse it shouldn't be hard to grow long because it doesn't break as much. Try using aloe to moisturize your scalp...cut down on the heat styling, heat causes split ends and that will require more trims.



I'm growing out my hair also.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

There are several foods, vitamins, and products that can make your hair growth faster. Hair growth does take time. But, no matter how much hair trauma or slow hair growth you have experienced, your hair can grow at a normal than faster rate. There is no magic potion to hair growth---but, if you look at other cultures, like Native Americans, who only use products from the Earth and eat less foods with preservatives, they rarely encounter hair loss, skin problems, and ailments like we do.



As a stylist, I can tell you that the best way to grow your hair fast is to take care of your hair from the inside out. Assess whether you live an unhealthy lifestyle or use traditional drugstore hair products that contain alcohol and sulfates. If you do, you can potentially be stunting your hair growth. Switch to an all-natural hair growth product and follow the tips below. You will see a difference.



Tip #1: Change your diet.



Increase your intake of proteins. Eat fish, eggs, beans, yogurt, and cheese. Drink a soy protein shake daily.



Tip # 2: Drink plenty of water



6-8 glasses is a must. 8-12 is even better.



Tip #3: Get your vitamins



Take a B Complex, Fish Oil, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E.



Tip #4: Only use an all-natural hair growth or hair thickening shampoos and conditioners



There are several good natural shampoos on the market, such as Aubrey Organics and Giovanni. However, I have used A Double Portion Super Hair Growth Shampoo on my hair loss clients because it is created specifically for hair growth and I have seen substantial results in a matter of month. It is full of hair growth promoting essential oils, sage, cayenne, neem, jojoba, and aloe. For my clients that used it, their hair got thicker, longer, and softer. You can find it online at www.discoverb4a.com. It is great shampoo just for making your hair more manageable and smooth as well.



Tip #5: Place as little heat and chemicals on your hair as possible. No hair coloring please.



Tip #6: Live a stress free life.



Tip #7: Get your blood flowing



Aerobic exercise stimulates blood circulation throughout the entire body, including the scalp. This is important for hair growth. Also, consider massaging your scalp for 5-10 minutes a day with warm olive or coconut oil. It will accentuate your hair growth as well.



I am black with "good" hair, how do I get my hair to grow longer?

i have hair like your if you mean curly hair but you shouldn't really be going around saying that, you can really offend people but i have i site for you



i tried the system and it worked but truly and really there is no magic product that will make your hair grow

Can I go from nearly Black hair, back to light brown/blonde???

Right, long story! I have naturally 'fair' hair. Goes mousey in winter and slightly golden in summer. I have always highlighted my hair.. but one time, the hair dresser got a bit carried away and put orange through it!?! Don't ask! Anyway, to resolve it, she stripped my hair, twice! As you can imagine, it wasnt good... i had bart simpson yellow hair, with orange streaks! I cried, a lot! Anyway, ended up having to die it dark dark brown.. and well it looks pretty much black! Luckily, I can get away with it, i've darkend my eyebrows etc..however i would really like to go back to a more natural colour. Its been nearly a year and half since my hair was stripped, and ive recently had it cut into a bob. So i think that most of the hair that was stripped will have grown out. Is it possible to go lighter, and if so.. how??!?! Obviously it will need to be done by a hairdresser, but just wondering how they can go about it?!?! I currently dye my hair myself. Thanks!



Can I go from nearly Black hair, back to light brown/blonde???

Well, my mom recently had the same problem.She has black hair and wanted blonde highlights, so we let our neighbor do it.BAD CHOICE.It looked horrible!She even followed a book that she had to tell her what it would look like if she put them in.Well, she had oarnge highlights too.She said she looked horrible.But, after almost half a year it started to blend in.Go to the hair dresser and tell her what happened last time and usually she will try her hardest nont to let that happen again.Hope my advice helps!



Can I go from nearly Black hair, back to light brown/blonde???

You have to bleach your hair. Then color it. Be sure you really want to do it though because it is that way forever, and you will definitely need it done professionally.



Can I go from nearly Black hair, back to light brown/blonde???

Try to find a salon that uses ( don't ask me how it is spelled but) illemonate or something like it. It is not a bleach it just takes the dye color out of your hair so it does't damage your hair.

I want to get my hair colored & permed....?

I want to get my hair colored the same as Drew Barrymoor in 50 first dates %26amp; the same wavy look (is that a perm?). My hair is slightly below shoulder length %26amp; is very thin. I've gotton it colored many times now and it's safe to say my hair is ruined. It has to be conditioned alot to de-tangle it. If i just use shampoo it sticks together and you would have to rip a brush through it. The ends seem to be always be fryed- no matter what, I thought after a haircut they would be fine, but still they are very brittle. But I basically just want my hair one color (blonde) with the wavy look. But is my hair gonna tolerate that? How do you go about having healthier hair? I assume you would have to buzz cut your head and start all over again to have it the way it used to be. If I do decide to get that wavy look like in the movie with the blonde hair... what do I tell my hair dresser? thanks!



I want to get my hair colored %26amp; permed....?

I'm not an expert, but it sounds to me like you should be more concerned with getting your hair healthy. The way you have described the condition of your hair, no perm or coloring job will look anything like the style your trying to achive, you will only cause more damage to your hair. But if you take care of the condition your hair is in first, you can then think about going after the style you want with a happier outcome. Ok so some rules of thumb to live by for hair care is..... DONT use JUST shampoo always use conditioner, remember the roots dont need it as bad as the tips do. The next thing is how you brush your hair, ALWAYS start at the bottom and work your way to the top, never start at the top and NEVER rip the brush threw the tangles that's why the ends are so fryed and brittle. You start at the bottom and gentlely work threw the knots. if the brush get stuck take the hair if your hand and work the tangle out. Since your hair does have some length think about maybe cutting it to about half an inch or inch above your shoulders to get rid of the split brittle ends, if that doesn't get rid of them all then I would try an get it trim 1/2inch every month or month an a half untill you get rid of the damaged ends. Once you have done that you should have hair that is healthy. And if you just HAVE to color your hair (which is very damaging but...) use Clairol Natural Instincts Level 2 its not a Permanent dye (those damage your hair) I had very damaged hair and colored my hair with it, and the condition of my hair was actually better then before I used it. The other great part about it is that it looks much more natural because you don't have the roots showing as your hair grows (I just hate that) and as it gradualy washes out your get great looking highlights, and again NO ROOTS showing. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, brush your hair correctly, use conditioner, and get it healthy before you perm it, and until then if you have to dye it do it right!!!!! Hope this helps!



I want to get my hair colored %26amp; permed....?

NO, do not put any chemicals in your hair right now,it will not tolerate it. It sounds like you need to cut more off, I'm not saying cut it really short,but have you thought about a bob,like between your jaw and top of the shoulder. The other thing ,do not use a brush on wet hair.

My destroyed hair!...help.! HOW will i fix it???!?

ok I used to have amazing long thick dark brown hair down to my elbows. Its naturally kinda wavy and poofy so ive been straightening it for years. 4months ago i dyed my hair blonde,(not highlights,a tint,all over blonde bleach) ...now its snapped and its to my shoulders without one single cut! (i loved my long hair!!)....Since then i have to wear extensions and i do love being a blonde with my extensions in and when im all do'd up but now all my roots popping up and are black against the blonde and my hair is falling out in chunks in the shower and every time i brush it and its sooooo thin. ive been crying so much! im too embaressed to go to hair dressers incase they look at it in disgust,chop my hair in a bob or they wont dye it back cuz then it'll snap more!!!Also it will cost a bomb,and I dont know any good hairdressers in Dublin!! HELP!!! I just want long flowy thick hair again... : (

My destroyed hair!...help.! HOW will i fix it???!?

When straightening you hair put a protector in it. Also use shampoo %26amp;%26amp; conditioner that revives damaged hair. When it grows back make sure you dont striaghten it everyday, and also i suggest not doing anything to harmful to it till its completely better. I hoped i helped!!! good luck %26lt;3



My destroyed hair!...help.! HOW will i fix it???!?

Hun, don't be afraid to go to the hair dresser. They won't laugh at you, i promise. They will help you.



Good Luck!



My destroyed hair!...help.! HOW will i fix it???!?

the best thing you can do is dye your hair brown. im sorry but bleached blonde isnt really worth being partially bald. once your hair re-grows (use tons of conditioners, moisturizers, and hot oil treatments/ also using straighteners on your hair everyday or any kind of ceramic heat WILL damage your hair) so yeah as soon as it regrows just get some nice blonde highlights then every now and then you can get more and sooner or later you'll have dirty blonde hair, and to me, that looks 100x better than broken up bleached blonde hair thats totally damaged. good luck.

Can anybody help with hair advice?

A 'friend' recently 'trimmed' my hair. It's always been fairly long and wavy/curly. Impossible to straighten no matter what which was just how I liked it. Nothing against straight hair-just looks shocking on me. Now have chin length hair that I can barely tie back and it's flat and straight regardless of what I try. Have used rollers,tongs.bendy rods,curl enhancing shampoos,conditioners,sprays,gels and creams. nothing works. Feel like blackadder!! Any suggestions welcome.



oh....my 'friend' is a hair dresser and has been cutting/colouring my hair perfectly for over 6 years...just in case you were curious.



Can anybody help with hair advice?

dont be afraid to tell your friend you dont like the way she cut it. ask her if she has any idea of what you cud do!! you cud also try a perm those last a while at least until your next opointment!! goodluck!!!



;-)))))



Can anybody help with hair advice?

ok since you want curly/wavy hair here's what i do cause i have straight hair so after you wash your hair, blow dry for 1 min. or air dry for 3-5 mins. then put lots lots lots of mousse all over your hair, then blow dry completely and start curling hair with a curling iron and every piece of hair you wrap aroudn the iron, count until 20 secs.

Curly hair?

I have naturaly curly hair but its dry, and dammaged and not looking to healthy at the min. big clumps are falling out in the plug hole and its just wrecked is there any tips on what to do? i try to straighten it but loads of hair just falls out i worried i may go bold.. my hair is very thin but lots of it i am to embarased to go to a hair dresser at the min i have been cutting the end off myself



Curly hair?

The first thing you can do is STOP trying to straighten your hair IMMEDIATELY! Straightening naturally curly hair (or any hair for that matter) is super unhealthy for it. It damages the hair, breaks it, dries it out, and a whole list of other nasty side effects.



I would strongly recommend going to the salon... better to be a little embarrassed than bald, right? I'm sure they have seen worse. Besides being able to give your hair a healthy and much-needed trim, they will have top of the line products for repairing damaged hair.



If you are really that embarrassed, some good steps to take in the direction of repairing your hair with store-bought supplies would be to completely stop using product (aka. Hairspray, mousse, gel, wax, etc.). Use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner (I like Infusium and John Frieda), maybe a 3-minute miracle lather (Aussie, John Frieda), and a moisturizing detangler (Infusium is my fave). If you can stand it only shampoo your hair every other day at the most! Shampooing dries hair, so instead just use the 3 minute miracle or just condition on the off days. Try to avoid products which are silicone based, Pantene Pro-V is a big NO... it might make your hair feel slick and moisturized but its really just coating or masking the damaged strand, not actually repairing it.



A final note, you might need to use an anti-residue shampoo such as Neutrogena if you start to feel any build-up. However, with naturally curly hair you shouldn't have too much of a problem. I hope all this helps and good luck!



Curly hair?

if its dry der r some special kinds of shampoos for da dry hair.. another gr8 way to improve ur hair is to use moisturizers nd creams.. this is all i could think of..anyways good luck! i hope i helped u in some way



Curly hair?

I rely on hair mousse to keep my curly hair under control. Make sure you use a really good conditioner but believe it or not a good shampoo will mousturise more than conditioner. Try mixing up a bit of conditioner with water in a spray bottle and spritz your hair all over. This will get it feeling really soft and freshens up a curly hair style. Lay off the straighteners for a bit because although my hair is really curly, my GHDs wrecked my hair after a year of using them and it went wavy and was burnt to a crisp! Avoid washing your hair every day, try every other day to keep some natural oils in. Feel free to email me if you want to know how I tame my hair and what products I recommend!! Good luck.



Just to add, ignore the people who tell you your hair falling out is a serious illness, people with curly hair will realise that you CANNOT brush curly hair, therefore, loose hairs stay tangled up until you wash it. When you wash it, all that loose hair that would otherwise be brushed out, comes out in the bath or shower.



Curly hair?

i heard that "horse and mane" shampoo works - no joke - i've never tried it though.



good luck!



Curly hair?

um i have very curly hair..i dont think it should be falling out....i use soo many prodects in my hair n its damaged too but it doesnt fall out as much as u say urs does so i really dont kno wut to tell you



Curly hair?

Ohmigod! you have exactly the same prob I did! dont worry, easily sorted! first of all throw your straighteners in the bin because they are frying your hair, secondly go to a good hair salon! get a good cut and make sure they do NOT razor cut your hair because this will tear your hair out more. Ask for a good trim, and hopefully it will start to look better! the best conditioner I have tried is kerastase oleo relax, it smooths your hair and regular treatments will start to put the moisture back in! gud luk



Curly hair?

The fact your hair is naturally curly, dry and damaged would not be the cause for it to fall out in clumps. What you are describing sounds more like a chemotherapy patient losing their hair. Are you taking any new medications or drugs??



You should definitely see a physician.



Curly hair?

I too have very curly short hair. it was extremely damaged and i lost alot of it from a chemical burn. A friend of mine told me to take a vitamin called Biotin. I take it and My hair started getting thicker and longer in just two weeks. You gotta take it everyday since its a daily vitamin, i have a 2500mcg bottle. Its not expensive and you could find it at any GNC or vitamin place. Try it what have you got to lose? Im telling you I thank my friend who referred it to me almost every day. Ciao!



Curly hair?

i Have Naturaly Curly Hair To and it is Really Herd to Take Care Of So i Started Using Mane 'n' Tail it Worked Great.. my Friend Use's it and it Works Great on Her Hair To..O and you Should Use Garnier Fructis because it worked Great on my Hair so it Should Work Great on your Hair too.

I want a rocker hairstyle but can't find anything that works with really thick hair...can anyone help me?

Hair dressers and Edie fans?

Has anyone seen "Ciao Manhattan" ?? Is there anyone who is a fan of Edie Sedgwick?



I am planning on cutting my hair quite short. A.T.M it is below the shoulders %26amp; dark. I think I want to go blonde but was wondering of the best ways of gradually going lighter. Any particular products you recommend?



The reason I brought up Edie is that I love her but my hair is too thick to go that short. I like the colour tho for me.



Hair dressers and Edie fans?

You can still go short if you have thick hair. It's all in the cut. I'd advise some razoring with a pretty sharp undercut. If you do anything else, you are not doing the Edie. Siena Miller's hair is fairly thick and she pulled it off.



As for going blonde, home blonding always looks cheap. I would go professional on this. With very short hair, single process blonde (what Edie had) will not be that expensive.

Omg, screwed up my hair?

Ohh myy godd!!!!!! ok i know this sounds relly stupid but i thought it would be fun to cut my own hair. So i trimmed my side bangs and they turned out beautiful... so i decided i could do layers, i tried to do layers now i have this big chunk and the bottoms reelllyy thin.. im 13 and my mom wont take me to the hair dressers today, thank god its saturday. the one layer is two inches below my chin, and the rest is like down to my breast OMG WHAT DO I DO ? or what should i ask for at the hair dressers to fix it and make it look nice ?



Omg, screwed up my hair?

When you go to get you hair cut get it cut so that it's short in the verv front and then eventually goes back into the length it is now. My friend has her hair like tat and it's really pretty.



Omg, screwed up my hair?

you might have to get it all cut that short to look normal



Omg, screwed up my hair?

LMAO!!! omg im soo sorry!! just put it up til then and when u see the hair dresser then tell her to FIX ur layers im sure she can do something to help... tell her u want long layers make sure u tell her long layers tho im forreal or u will look like a mushroom head.

Info on hair extensions ( UK)?

Hi, I really want to get some fake ( not human hair) extensions. Can I buy them off the internet and take them to a hair dresser to have them dyed and cut or am I better of going to a salon and getting them orderd in from the actual hairdressers?



Info on hair extensions ( UK)?

I have been a licensed cosmetologist for 5 years and my expertise is in hair extensions. There is no way you can recolor fake hair. Fake hair is synthetic fibers so if you try anything of that sort it will either tangle or melt. You will have to go human hair on this one. If you don't know a good brand, go to a stylist to help you out.



Info on hair extensions ( UK)?

Before you decide on your hair extensions you should try some clip in to see the desired effect! Choose from synthetic hair extension styles in straight and wavy or the 100% fine human hair extension system. Affordable, lightweight and easy to attach without damaging your hair.



The one good thing about the human hair extensions, is you can treat it like your own as with the synthetic type you cant put heat near it as it will melt!



There are loads of salons and mobile hairdressers, that specialise in extensions these days,so shop around before you have them weaved into your own hair!! It is expensive, and they do need allot of care !! good luck,....there are loads of shops which sell the weave ,clips then have to be added on to this.. you can chose 2/3 colours to blend into your own hair colour. most salons want you to use their hair! which is understandable..



Info on hair extensions ( UK)?

I am a hairdresser and we used to get people coming in with hair extensions for them to be put in. The best hing to do is to get the colour that you want, go to a store first to make sure that you will order the correct colour. Hair extensions can be darkened with care but no lightened. The lightening process can melt fake extensions.



The best thing to do is check with your local salons to make sure that they are willing to put them in for you. We used to do them if they where the strip extensions and the glue was provided also. So it depends on what type you order.



Info on hair extensions ( UK)?

I would go to a Salon Services. If you have one near you. This is a supplier for hair salons and if you where to get 3 sets of hair extensions depending on how thick your hair is. Get 2 sets the same and one colour different to make it multy toned its more natural looking. This will Cost around about 鎷?0.

Why is a tip still expected by a professional hair stylist when they're getting 50%+ of the tot

Your hair stylist does not get minimum wage or less - like the wait staff, bartender, car valet. Most hair dresser gets 50% or more of what YOU just spent in the salon + bonuses,.And if you bought some products (they insist you need, like shampoo etc, ) they get even more. Ladies, honestly, that $200+ bill you just plunked down for your cut %26amp; color, while your stylist attended 2 clients as your color came up, just made $300+ for their pocket. Why are we tipping them? If they are a professional they should not be tipped. You don't tip your doctor, your tax guy, or your mechanic - why should we tip the professional hair dresser? I am not taking about the discount hair salon chains with the low cost cuts - I am talking about the salon who wants you to have "an experience" because of all their "ambiance". I say it is time to stop this tip %26amp; hope you 'll "experience" the ambiance of a bit more cash to tip the person at minimum wage - they need it, not your professional stylist.



Why is a tip still expected by a professional hair stylist when they're getting 50%+ of the total bill?

AMEN!!!!!! It's getting to where you need a small personal loan to get a f---king haircut. I totally agree. I don't tip nothing more than a 4 dollar tip. Call me cheap or whatever, but I refuse to pay someone with NO EDUCATION $100 more an hour just because you will call me cheap. by the time the hour ends some of them are making $75 to $100 an hour. That's bull sh--t.

I never said anythin about having to pay for insurance, or doctors for that matter, and made no such comparrison. Get your facts straight! Report It

I read this and laughed. It is true and it's funny. Getting your haircut and styled or whatever...costs alot...why tip?

If that is how you feel, I hope I never see you in my salon. I went to school for 2 years to learn how to do hair, and we don't make as much as you seem to think we do. We do not get any sort of hourly pay at all. The only income we have is given to us by our customers. If we are lucky enough to make $500 a week, $125 goes towards booth rent, and about $200 goes towards products (back bar, color, developer, perms, etc.) So we only really get to bring home maybe $200 a week. A tip is not required anywhere you go. It is to show that you appreciate the work that has been done, to show that you like your hair, or you appreciate the prompt service that the waiter/waitress gave you. You need to open up your mind.

Hair products to help curly hair staight??

I just cut off about 10 inches of hair. and my hair is above my shoulders for probably the last 14 years I have been able just to throw it in a ponytail. My hair is really curly but my hair dresser straightened it and now I need to know what kind of products I should be using?? I know I need a hair serum. But what is the best drug store brand you can get



Hair products to help curly hair staight??

Remington slim wet2straight Straightener is really really fantastic. I use it, and it replaces blow drying and helps styling. There's 30 heat settings and a hair guide so you can straighten your hair while it's still wet, and it has steam sensors so it won't damage your hair. Takes about 10-15 mins for you length hair. If not, just get some bain de terre all day straight gel, or aquage products for straighteneing. Best of Luck!



Hair products to help curly hair staight??

I too have curly hair, really really curly hair. When ever I get it straighted i use John Freeda Collection serum. It works amazing. You can also use this when your hair is curly. When getting out of the shower put two or three pumps into your hair and work it through, put it in a bun, and go to sleep with it. When you wake it, it looks AMAZING. so its like a 2 for 1 special!!!



Good luck



Hair products to help curly hair staight??

i have SUPER curly hair.



if i dont brush it alot i look like shirley temple.



so what i do is use.....



*shampoo and conditioner--garnier fructis sleek and shine



*right out of the shower--studio heat seeker straightening cream by loreal.



*straightener--im not sure what its called. but i got it at walmart for cheap...$24 i think. its from conair and its black. it should say that it has "high alpha heat" on the little plastic thing it comes in.

Highlights for very dark hair?

I have dark dark chocolate brown hair (looks black). I want to high light my hair again but im afraid to mess it up, because my friend did and it looked way bad.



Im looking for a color that blends in with my hair, a natural tint.



I used to have them but they wore off and i got the last of them cut off.



Can a hair stylist/dresser or anyone with hair like mine with highlights give me some tips for colors!!



OH AND PS- NOT LOOKING FOR ANY WACKY COLOR LIKE NO PINK OR BLUE OR GREEN.. JUST LIKE A CARAMEL.. or a bronze.. something like that.



THANKS %26lt;3 !!! :D



Highlights for very dark hair?

a tan or a caramel or lt. brown



Highlights for very dark hair?

like a honey



Highlights for very dark hair?

lowlights...they work wonders!!make sure you get it almost ur natural color,a lil lighter though so u won't look goofy when it grows out.



Highlights for very dark hair?

i would say get a dark caramel copper golden (somewhere around there)color ..... you cant fail with that if you go to a good hairstylist



Highlights for very dark hair?

My friend's hair is the same color as yours, and she got honey-gold, a really dark blonde, and auburn, and it looked fabulous on her!!!

Highlights for very dark hair?

i wouldn't get anything lighter than regular brown for what your hair sounds like. I've seen some people's highlights, and their hair looks like a creamcheese brownie. Blonde streaks won't do anyone but blondes any good. And why ruin your hair. I think highlights are STUPID. Lol, maybe I'm just saying that cuz i have natural ones that look good.



Highlights for very dark hair?

red. red is a good colour for highlights if your hair is dark

hope this helps :)



Emo hair! help plzzzz?

laaame.



Emo hair! help plzzzz?

What's wrong with just asking for an emo haircut. I bet if you asked the hairdresser to cut it how you described, they'd say "you mean an emo haircut?" Emos are fags.



Emo hair! help plzzzz?

just search something like "emo hair" or "scene hair" on photobucket. there are TONS, and then print it off and take it to the salon



%26amp; please help me! http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...



Emo hair! help plzzzz?

Hair dressers are there to cut your hair, they don't care what you're into or whether or not you're emo. Ask for whatever cut you want. Tell the hairdresser exactly what you wrote here:



"i want it cut so its like long emo hair with like a long side fringe and short layers that wont fit in a pony tail but i dont want it to look like a mullet."



That's perfectly clear. If it's a specific look you want, search around for a picture to bring with you. Or bring a couple pictures and say you want the bangs from this picture and the back from the other one. Really, they don't care. They're there to give you what you want and make it look good, that's why you're paying them.

Is it safer to texturize or relax my texturized hair?

I'm wearing my hair big and curly now, but have set up an appointment with my hair dresser this Wednesday for a Kelis cut: http://www.virginmedia.com/microsites/si...



This obviously calls for straight hair and since I have to cut it anyhow, I figure I should relax it, right? I keep hearing that I shouldn't relax my hair since it IS texturized [last month]. What are my options?



Is it safer to texturize or relax my texturized hair?

a texturizer is just a milder relaxer, so by relaxing texturized hair it will be over processing your hair...it may be okay if your hairstylist knows exactly when to take the relaxer out to keep your hair healthy
