Answer 1

They have hair straightners just heated metal and if your hair is straightened enough it gets easier and easier to straighten it

Answer 2

1. Wash your hair as normal.

2. Towel dry, but not "scrunching" or "rubbing" your hair--just pat and squeeze it dry.

3. While it is still damp, run some Biosilk throughout your hair and use a wide tooth comb to help separate your hair as you dry it with a hairdryer (it is important to use a hairdryer with an attachment nozzle that will direct the heat to your hair and not make your hair fly all around. Use downward blasts of air. Also try to get a hair dryer that has an ionic cool blast--it will "flatten" some of your hair if you use it after your hair is dry).

4. Find a really good flat iron that heats up really high and use it in "brushing" strokes (just like you use a brush) so that your delicate curly hair doesn't fry itself (there is usually less moisture in curly hair because it takes longer for oil to go down the hair shaft). Go slower on the areas that have a lot of curl to smooth them out.

5. Use a little bit of styling "gunk" to define the tips of your hair and you'll be set! :)

I did this for my friend who had EXTREMELY thick and curly hair and it came out amazing! She looked like a totally different person! :) Hope this helps!

I have realy naturally curly hair too.

1. If you want a more relaxed curly style...use LARGE rollers. Let it dry naturally in the big rollers. Your hair with large large waves and less frizz.

2. You anti-frizz and relaxing creams and lots of conditioner. If your hair is really dry and brittle, your hair will become frizzy if moisture gets to it....like foggy mornings, or humid weather. So condition your hair!!! Dry hair absorbs the moisture in the air and causes frizziness and more curls!

3. Straighten your hair with a flat iron. If you want to wear the straight style the next day without washing again...simply put your already straightened hair up in a ponytail on top of your head and sleep. The next morning all you have to do is flat iron the crease the ponytail holder left behind and you are good to go.

I use the large rollers Everyday. I have medium length hair and it works great giving my naturally frizzy/curly hair great waves and style!

Go to a good salon and ask them. Don't do anything to you hair your self. There is some really good straightening techniques. You can have a straightening chemical put on that will eventually grow out, there are straightening tools you can use. Just be careful. A lot of these things can be damaging to your hair. Ask yourself if you would rather have curly healthy hair or straight unhealthy hair.

Answer 5

A you could buy and use a straightening iron. Easier ways to straighten hair are you could use Herbal Essences products. They work wonders! Use the dangerously straight shampoo and conditioner and I use the danerously straight hair spray. It works so good and I use it every moring. You just spray it several times on different parts of your head or on your comb or brush and then comb/brush it to even it out on all parts of your hair. You should try it. It works great!!

Answer 6

most shampoos and conditioners that say for curly hair are made to volumize the curls and make them look lively. you should try a relaxing shampoo. also, use some gel or a leave in treament without (without scrunching if you don't want curlier hair) instead...brush it out.

Answer 7

If you want your hair to curl but not frizz, twirl it. After showering, use a your favorite frizz control cream, and twirl 1 inch (about) pieces of hair. This makes your curls look soft and under control without them getting too out of control.

Also, you should never use a brush on curly hair, use a comb.

Answer 8

Shampoos and conditioners for curly hair help preserve curl. I suggest that you condition it well and use a straightening balm, but count your blessings for your beautiful curls!

Answer 9

I have really curly hair too, and I put my gel or mouse in it and then take small sections and twist it. Then let it dry natural, by the time it dries they will be more spread out and less kinky. Also you can put gel or mouse in it and twist all your hair in a bun and sleep on it. By the time you wake up in the morning it should almost be dry and more loose curls!

Answer 10

You should try Batia and Aleeza. There shampoo is supposed to be really good, it may not make it less curly, but it will make it look nicer. Or you could just use a straitener.

Answer 11

i have tried this and it does work, and it depends on just how curly your hair is and how straight you want it..ok just go out and buy a body perm from any store such as wall-mart etc. and comb it thru your hair while your hair is wet, be sure to wait about 10 minutes and rinse it out then @ condition well , try it you may like it as i did..
