Question

Answer 1

Start washing your hair every day, so it won't be greasy anymore. Use a good conditioner, pantene is great. Get layers put in.

Answer 2

It sounds like its more heavy than flat if it's also poofy. the fix for that is a great cut with lots of movement. I can't recomend which cut without seeing you in person, but I can reccomend you go to a reputable salon and ask for a consultation, or you may also want to visit a book store and look at hairstyles that would compliment your face shape, and hair texture. Greasy hair is caused by either over shampooing, overshampooing could also explain why your hair is poofy overshampooing will really dry out our hair causing oily scalp and frizzy dry ends which a few weekly deep conditioning treatments can help with.(you should only shampoo every other day)misuse of product(styling products are to be used sparingly and emulsified in hands first so it doesn't end up in clumps, also you always start from the bottom of your hair to the front, and you shouldn't need to reapply, if you do then you need a different styling product) or too much build up in hair from hair products to medication. If you think build-up is the problem a clarifying shampoo is the solution. One last possible reason is the constant running of your hands through your hair, and if that's your problem none of my advice can help. A quick fix for the look of greasy hair is a little talcum powderon your scalp. Also make accesories your friend cute little headbands with a bun at the base is one of the current looks.( Sienna Miller, Nicole Richie, Kirsten Dunst)are just a few celebs rocking this look. Hopefully I answered all your questions and given you enough options to find the better looking and feeling girl inside.

Answer 3

You should use a volumizing shampoo and conditioner to help lift the flatness of your hair. And regular shampooing will help to alleviate the greasiness of the scalp. If you have trouble with poofiness along the length of the hair, use a leave-in conditioner that can be sprayed on specific areas, so that you avoid re-oiling the scalp.

Aside from that, a good cut can work wonders. See a stylist and discuss the options that work best for your face shape and hair type.

Answer 4

there are some thing you should think of.

to dry your hair with a towel.

DON'T change shampoo all the time, use the shampoo that is the most good for you and stick to it. If you change all the time you will destroy your hair. it is not good..

Don't color your hair with chemicals it will also destroy it..

Get a hair treatment, such as leave-in-creme or hair mask for the type of hair you got. If you are not sure ask a hairdresser about it and buy a hair treatment and use it well.

you should have a good base like those few thing I just said, then you can start to style it with a better result.

make plaits during the night and you will get nice wavy hair next day. or style it with some spray (not too muck though cause it is also not so good with hairspray).

Do always treat your hair well cause I know it is valuable..

Answer 5

Hi, Have a trip to the Hairdressers for a Trim and shape. If you havent time nip out and buy some volumising moose, then after washing and conditioning your hair, Towel dry it, put a golf sized amount of Mousse in your hand, put your head upside down and spread the moussed through your hair to the ends, then if you want a wavy/curly style scrunch your hair in your hands and with a Hairdryer with a diffuser attachment give your hair a boost of volume and curls, dont dry your hair completely just enough to add the volume and wave/curls. And there you have it your new Look!

Answer 6

Wash it everyday to keep it clean and grease free.

To go for a new look, trying cutting it. Not too short, just short enough so that's it's fresh and pretty. Or you could just trim it up to keep away split ends. Get highlights if you can afford it. Get some new shampoo to volumize hair.

Free stuff: Try blow-drying your hair upside down, then styling it with a little mousse. This will make it full and pretty. Just have fun! Mess around with fun and interesting hair ties, head bands and hair clips. Go for the new and exotic. Try making a head band out of some fun-print fabric or even a pair of old jeans. Denim is hot, girl. Just go for it!!

Answer 7

First of all, you need to shampoo it daily, washing it twice when you do. First shampoo, breaks down oils and dirt, second one cleanses. Never use HOT water on scalp. This causes oil glands to over react and produce more oil. If it tends to be flat, have your styist put a slight layer around the bottom of hair taking a little weight off the hair. This works on chin lenght down to waist length hair. Use a Volumizer before drying. Never rub hair with towel, causes split ends and breakage. Use dryer on medium heat and high air and turn head upside down to dry first then back up to finish drying. A long shag puts more layers in and helps keep you from having a boring look. You can change the look daily with a shag.

Answer 8

Wash it with professional Shampoo and conditioner. Get it trimmed and Layered, maybe with some Eva longeria bangs. rinse it out, then put some redkind heat glid. it makes it smooth and not to poofy or flat. Then do some type of flips which if you do it right it will look like Evas hair in Desperate housewives.

Answer 9

get some mousse and blow dry it upside down. blow drying upside down adds body and will give flat hair a texas style boost

use a hooded dryer to curl your hair-buy rollers with stick pins and sit under a dryer (www.conair.com has great hooded dryers for home use) and turn the volume up. depending upon you hair type VO5 or the TCB line will do the trick-both are made by alberto culver but if you have your own fav product line try thier mousse and a volumizing moose wihtout alcohol is even better

I hope this helps

Answer 10

well it depends on if you like it curly or straight.

when i want my hair curly i usually am one to just take a shower at night and throw some gel/mousse then go to bed and when you wake up just add a little more and it's the perfect wave.

or you could maybe try getting it cut another way. that always helps. i mean you can only take so much of one look. get really scissored/choppy layers. they're easy to handle and real cute.

put some curlers in your hair.
straighten it.

there are so many possiblities.
hopefully that will help you out a little.
but you're going to have to spend a little
more time than usual if you want your
hair to look good.
unless you get a cute cut :-D
