Straitening Hair w/o flat Iron??

Question

I have been straitening my hair for the past 2 years and my hair is fried. I absolutly hate it curly and only wear it curly when its too hot to use flat iron. Anyone have any good ideas on straightening it naturally {even if i have to do it daily} that actally work, without going to a salon and paying 300$ to get it done chemically.

Answer 1

I've never heard of such a thing, I'd recommend trying to get your hair cut to get rid of the dead ends and then just using the right products to prevent your hair getting fried again. If you're willing to spend a little money, here are a couple great products: glossing cream by Fredrick Fekkai (sephora.com), Matrix protecting heat spray, John Freida's Secret Weapon and Dream Cream...and invest in a really good deep conditioner and use it once a week.

Answer 2

Well what I do is I use a spray that protects your hair from getting fried, frizzy, and damaged. It works sooooo great! I had the same problem as you, until i used this stuff. Its called Aquage (in a blue container),and I got it for $14. I know its a lot for a spray can but it works like magic. The other good thing about it is that it doesn't make your hair greasy or anything like that. My ends were pretty fried and what I did is I trimmed my ends so I could start out with no spit or fried ends. So if I were you I would try that stuff cause it really works. And if you can't find it anywhere, go to your salon, and if they don't have it either, then get Treseme straightening spray, because that's more common. Good Luck and I hope your hair stops frying! :c)

Theres a few ways... You can go out and buy a CHI or ION blow dryer and get a diffuser and it straightens your hair when you blow dry it. Just make sure you put a leave in conditioner or a spray that you will use each time before you straighten or blow dry your hair so it wont fry. You can buy it at any hair shops in the mall, or Sallys. It a heat protector. 2. You can buy shampoos that say "straightens" on them, they will help.

Answer 4

Don't wash your hair everyday. It sounds like you're drying your hair out too much. You don't have to wash it everyday. Because I have natually curly hair, too, and I know that to tame it, you need to take a shower and use conditioner and all that, and then you have to blow dry it. Try going to bed with it wet, then in the morning straighten it. The next day just take a bath instead of a shower so your hair doesn't get wet.

I totally understand what you mean. My hair costs a lot to maintain too. I bought maxi glide by maxius(straightening) I also bought beyond straight for humidity and I buy Biosilk(silk therapy)smells great and is great for frizz. I even use it on my 5 year old daughter.

You need to eat a lot of protein and biotin helps hair grow! Also it helps out your skin and nails to grow too. I buy One Source from walmart. and or you can buy multivitamins for women. Plus the most important thing, you have to drink plenty of water and eat more vegetables and fruits(healthy food.)

Answer 8

get your hair cut first so all the dead ends are cut off..and you can always blow it out straight with a hair dryer..or get it done at the salon or w.e...but also...to prevent that you can get creams or gels that you put in your hair before you straighten it to prevent it from the heat. another tip...only wash your hair with shampoo every other time...still use conditioner always though...good luck!
