How do I protect my hair from the damage the blow dryers/straightners do?

Question

I have long thick black wavy hair, and I have frizzy hair. And on top of that, I have super curly hair at the front of my scalp. I have blowed dryed and used the straightener, on my hair for 2 days and after the 2 days, my hair gets brittle with split ends! I don't want to damage my hair so much. I'd like to straighten my hair if I could, but, It gets damaged after 2 days. What do I do?
Thanks!

Answer 1

you can get frizz ease heat protetion serum.. apply it on wet hair and then use blow dryer/ straightener.. it should help.. but staighteners always damage hair.. you get split ends .. all you can do is to trim your hair by an inch every 3months :)

Answer 2

The key to healthy hair while heat styling is 2 things: one, protect it w/ products, 2, don't style as often. Herbal Essence stuff works really good, go to herbal essence.com, click on "get the look" then, scroll down to the straight hair video, and watch it, it works really good!!!!
And as for the damage, Garneir separate conditioners, for damage hair work really well. When your hair is dry, use some of that conditioner, heat it up in a bowl (no more then 10 sec.) put it in your hair for about 10 min. rinse, shampoo, condition (do this only once a week.)

Answer 3

FIRST OFF, TRASH THE BLOW DRYER. IT MAKE YOUR HAIR SO FRIZZY! U HAVE CURLS, SO GET SOME MOUSSE, I USE AUSSIE. WHEN UR HAIR'S WET APPLY MOUSSE BY RUNNING UR FINGERS THROUGH YOUR HAIR, THEN LET IT DRY NATURALLY. IF UR GONNA USE A STRAIGHTENER USE SOMETHING TO PROTECT IT FIRST. ALWAYS USE CONDITIONER, BUT ALSO THERE IS SOME SPRAY PROTECTER. I USED A V05 PRODUCT AND IT WORKS PRETTY GOOD.

Answer 4

Use a heat protection serum to protect it from the heat of blowdryers/straigtners. I personally like chi infusion. You could also try a deep treatment conditioner for split ends.

Answer 5

Get some hair protector spray at a local hair salon.

Answer 7

do not use blow dryer directly on the hair shaft, wooden brushes, thermal products

Answer 8

use sunsilk (the purple kind) thermashine spray. its protects from heat, and makes your hair super soft and shiny. get it an walmart, kmart, or any drugstore.
