well you should buy a hair straighter if you dont have one and you should straighten your hair it makes it look better and flattens it out. also you should get one that can dry your hair. so when you wash your hair you can use the hair straighter to dry it and it will be straight and thinner

-Do you know that shampoo dries out hair? It's not neccessarily a bad thing, but for some hair types it is. Shampoos contain some of the same ingredients as laundry detergents!
-Use a shampoo with a low concentration of sulfate sodium laureth (salt- really bad for your hair) or don't use it at all. Simply massage your scalp with conditioner and rinse to remove dirt. My hair has become less oily and dry since I did this.
- I really like the frizz-ease hair serum and garnier fructis products. Aussie Moist Conditioner works great too, but there are more conditioners, gels, etc. on the website.
-This takes 2 to 4 weeks begin working. This is hard to do if you don't read the book, or at least the website. Good luck! Visit the sites for more tips on how to get naturally healthy hair!

You could use a texturizer to help your curls settle.

You could try the ionization also it is a technique out of Japan that is a non chemical way to treat hair, more costly but longer lasting results.

There are also ceramic straightening irons as well you can find them at stores like Wal-mart , better quality ones at beauty supply stores ie trade secrets.

I recommend texturizing to a former work mate and she was in tears when she saw me next, could not thank me enough.

So I know what it is like to have thick , hair as I have so much hair it has made stylist cry when they have had to braid it.

Good luck

It depends on how you want to go and how MUCH YOU WANT TO SPEND, you can hire a contractor to tear up the "tennis court" and do it in a step wise fashion and it may save you some money, call around to see what landscapers in your area are willing to lend a hand, I mean if it is for a "charity type thing" . What state is the garden gong to be in?

Did you ever think about incorporating the existing TENNIS COURT SURFACE into a partial walk way? I can see it in my mind, use a standard cut off saw to cut and remove the bed space areas that you would want removed(where the soil could be brought in).... now is this going to be a "ornamental garden" or also "food crops" ~ like tomatoes etc? I mean you would want to be careful with teh SOIL in such a case, you would not want the "food crops" sucking up any of the "residues" from whatever it is that is in teh "tenis court covering" etc etc (soil safety) from teh sound of the project it sound like you would be bringing in soil..... you could have a little greenhouse or trellises and other stuff... the path could be covered with a smooth surface, but perhaps just PAINTED because there may be someone in a WHEEL CHAIR who would then be able to cruise around the area.

but as I said I did not know how much you had to spend? if you would just want to hire your average "landscape contractor" and go that route, not doing any of the "legwork" yourself well the guy who answered 35k or more may be in the ball park.... but as I said I could see in my mind that a project like this coudl be done nicely for 10-15 thousand if you got the right people together....

as far as maintenance, you may be able to find a retired couple or individual even who would want to maintain such a GARDEN out of the KINDNESS OF THE HEART.... now I do not know if youa re doing this for financial gain as like part of a clinic you run or something or if it is just something you are doing with no financial gain attached, it should not matter either way, the best CARE that a facility can give to someone who is "underpriavledged" or impaired in the way/reason you suggest you are doing this to say, well it is to the better.

But to employ someone to maintain it, it depends you could just hire someone from a landscape firm to come and maintain it based on how often it needed maintained, weekly, biweekly etc, so that really not be that much consider such a cost variable, but once the whole PROJECT is put in, and depending on what is involved well it will vary.... is there standard weeding which needs done, trimming, watering? Maintenance on other things like benches or trellis(usually separate projections of "wear and tear" to be considered) Logically I could shoot out a figure of no more than a couple to a few hundred a month perhaps, so what's that well it depends is it seasonal where you are ? do you have winters?

stone walls and or out-crops? (they always look nice to me, incorporated in with landscaping)

If you are looking to get straight and managable hair go to your hair stylist and you can get straightening chemicals in your hair and it will straight really easily but the days you want curly hair just take a shower...i don't no to much about my friend got it done who also had very curly hair and it looked really good. Im pretty sure the chemicals stay in your hair for abuot 2-3 months.

Try a layered cut it thins the hair and reduces the waves-also you could try using a flat iron if you don't want to go the cutting route. Good luck.

u should let it grow at least a little longer so you can put it up and get it permanently straighten and it will be a lot better or cut it the emo short way and get short short layer and put hair wax on ur hair and it adds volume to ur hair my friend tought me that:)

I suggest you take care of what you have; don't cut it.

Sounds like you are really cute now, although a link with your picture would have helped answerers give their more honest opinion.
