how often should i straighten my hair?

Question

would once every 2weeks hurt?

Answer 1

the secret to straightening your hair is to protect your hair with a straightening product before you straighten it. you can straighten it every day if you do the following:

-allow your hair to dry naturally after you shampoo.
-use a straightening product before you apply heat
-use a professional straightener. the hotter the heat, the faster it straightens. whether it is 150f degrees or 420f, it will have the same damage. so with a 420f straightener, it will do it in a fraction of the time and do less damage to your hair. always keep the straightener moving along the hair and never let it sit on one spot.
-with all heat styling of hair (blow dryer included), get regular trims to keep your hair healthy.
-using a good conditioner and giving your hair a weekly treatment of olive oil will keep it healthy.

once every two week will not damage your hair at all. if you follow the above tips, you can do it everyday.

It relies upon on the technique of straightening one have have been given. Incase of temperory straightening, hair continues to be at latest in basic terms till at last the subsequent wash. Incase of parmanent hair straightening, u might desire to choose for rebonding in basic terms whilst your new hair grows as plenty by using fact the version starts off looking obvious. Like I somewhat have shoulder length chemically dealt with parmanent straightened hair and that i usully choose for rebonding technique after 5-6 months. yet extra substantial ingredient is to take desirable care of the hairs and not indulge plenty in those straightening mechanisms which will harm the hair interior the long-term premier to over-dryness, split ends and acute hairfall on the later degree.

well it all depends on how strong your hair is and if it's prone to breaking easily, i straighten my hair about 2-3 times a week but i always protect my hair with hot iron straighting balm by bed head so that when i do straighten it's not directly on my hair, you can usually find it at a salon but if you can't find it then you can also try detangler from like walmart and put that on directly before hand. Let me know how that works out ok!

Wow I straighten my hair every single day. My hair is down to my tail bone and it is the shinest and the silkest in the world. So everyday or a little less should not bother your hair.

Answer 5

You should straighten your hair every time you wash it. But, if you generally have pretty straight hair and you want it straighter, or you have a texturizer/perm in, once every two weeks will not kill you or your hair. If not, straighten your hair after every wash.
If that is too much, consider getting a perm or texturizing your hair.

Answer 6

i try not to straighten my hair everyday cuz im afraid it may burn the hair but you can straighten it like once a week or even everyday cuz some of my friends do it everyday and there hair isn't burnt but make sure u use a cermaic straightener and that you make sure your hair is perfectly dry before you straighten it because if its damp or wet it burns easier.

You can straighten you hair more than once every two weeks, but not too much because straightning your hair damages it, and it might begin to fall out.
