growing hair out?

Question

I have thick hair and I am trying to grow it out at present.

My hair has a tendency to get very bushy and I end up cutting it short again,
What is the best way to make it look less bushy as I would really like to give it a go this time around.
My hair is about 3" long all over and I would like to grow it so that I can get it bobbed eventually

my hair is straight with a slight wave
I have tried thinning it out before and ended up with spiky bits, I also do not want to use any chemicals on it or heated appliances

Answer 2

A good hairdresser should know what to do with your present hair condition. A hairstylist should have a special hair blade that helps tame down hair by making it a little thinner. This will make your hair much less bushy to put it in your terms. To grow out your hair take B-12 vitamins. Good luck!

Answer 3

Try using flattening irons and bobby pins. Other than that ask your hairstylist to use thinning technics while cutting

You can braid it. You can also use gel or other product like mousse to keep it under control.
