I want to an efficient hair straightening cream! Help!?<p>I'm 15 and i have curly hair. I need a hair straightening cream or shampoo available in Mauritius! I want to get rid of the frizz! Plzzzzzzzzz HEEEELLLLLP!</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is curly! I want to an efficient hair straightening cream! Help!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Don't use straightening irons - lot's of girls fall into that trap and all it will end up doing is taking up a lot of your time and completely destroying the quality of your hair.</p><br /><br /> <p> You need a curl relaxer. And the best you can get is Phyto Phytodefrisant Botanical Hair Relaxing Balm. Apply it to damp hair and then blow dry (or just wait for) it to dry. Not only will relax your curls into waves or completely straight locks (depending on how much you use), it will get rid of any and all frizz you may have.</p><br /><br /> <p> The best thing is is that it's chemical free (so it won't weaken your hair) and oil-free (so it won't make your hair look oily like a lot of other relaxants). </p><br /><br /> <p> Since you live in Mauritius the best place to purchase it would be through Amazon (here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Phyto-Phytodefrisa... ). </p><br /><br /> <p> Hope it helps! :)</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is curly!

I want to an efficient hair straightening cream! Help!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>If you have super curly hair like I do the only thing that I have found that was effective and with out frizz was getting it chemically straightened at the salon. That said...my sister and I found it much easier to just embrace the curl too much stress to fight it. I use Noodle Head by Beyond Zone which you can get through Sally beauty supply.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is curly! I want to an efficient hair straightening cream! Help!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Frederic Fekkai's Glossing Cream is AWSOME!!!</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is curly! I want to an efficient hair straightening cream! Help!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I have curly hair too and what I have found is that shampoo and conditioner alone will not straighten your hair. For a cheap solution without having to go to the salon and chemically straighten it (costs a bundle and is really bad for you hair!), I would get some good smoothing shampoo like Redkin Smooth Down this will help reduce the frizz greatly. Secondly get a good straightener and leave in conditioner. Once you get out of the shower put in the leave in conditioner while your hair is wet (don't put too much or it will leave it kinda hard like hairspray). Blow dry your hair and straighten with a flat iron or you could buy a straightener that drys your hair at the same time but I'm not sure if they work well. I do emphasize to get a good flat iron/ straightener.</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is curly! I want to an efficient hair straightening cream! Help!?</strong><br /><br /> <p>To calm my frizzy hair i use heat protectant gel by wella called 'new wave' (comes in a red thingy), even if i don't straighten my hair after that it makes it feel a bit straighter because it makes your hair a bit heavier and it has a bit of a hold!</p><br /><br /> <strong>My hair is curly!

My hair is frizzy and "poofy." I hate using the flat iron, all the time. It just takes too long.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can anyone tell me about chi hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>The Chi straightener is like the Japanese straightener.Its as harsh as any other chemical you would put on your hair.If you hate your hair the way it is (frizzy, poofy and ironing it all the time) you'll love it. all you have to do is get out of the shower run a comb through your hair and it will dry straight.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can anyone tell me about chi hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I have a Chi hair straightener, it works VERY well with fuzzy hair. It takes me about ten minutes to straighten my hair. The liquid chi stuff works great too...I'[m not sure about chemicals. It tends to be a little pricy so go onto E-bay and you can get it much cheaper. I got my Chi hair straightener, originaly $145.00, brand new on E-bay for 15 bucks including shipping! It came with two bottles of chi straightening liquid. Anyways, good luck, I hope you find what your looking for.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can anyone tell me about chi hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>well oils and gel make my hair greesy but the straightener for chi takes about 5-15 minutes IT ROCKS! and it would do poof your poofyness! but the gel probly works cuz CHI ROCKS!</p><br /><br /> <p> xoxo</p><br /><br /> <p> aBBIE</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can anyone tell me about chi hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>The Chi system is better for your hair than most. Farouk makes brands that are healthy for your hair.</p><br /><br /> <p> Just make sure that when you get it done it is by someone that has done it before.</p><br /><br /> <p> You also might want to purchase some Silk Therapy from them, its wonderful...adds shine and smoothness to your hair.</p>zuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112491103391531585noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764461354131631729.post-43715940983662815942009-10-07T03:02:00.000-07:002009-10-07T03:02:06.606-07:00Is Straightening your hair bad?<p>hii i have curly hair and straighten it about once a week...is it damaging to my hair?? what can i use to protect it?? btw my straightener is Conair and its ceramic</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Once a week isn't too bad. I used to straighten my hair every single day...I stopped recently because my hair was getting too damaged, and I let my hair go back to it's normal waves, but it's not the same way it used to be; it's fried! There's split ends everywhere and it's baad.</p><br /><br /> <p> So as long as you only do it once in a while I think it's okay. Just use repairing shampoo and don't let the straightener heat up too much so it ends up completely burning your hair (I've had some nasty burns on my ear from letting my straightener get too hot lol) </p><br /><br /> <p> What do you do with your hair when you don't straighten it? I mean like do you just leave it how it is naturally or do you curl it or something? Cause generally too much heat is not good for your hair, so anything like curling, crimping, or straightening uses that heat. </p><br /><br /> <p> So yes, not to scare you or anything lol, just advising that using too much heat on your hair can damage it =P (then again, keeping in mind that my hair is like this after like...4 months of straightening it about 4 or 5 times a week...so that's A LOT lol) </p><br /><br /> <p> P.S. I think I use the same or similar hair straightener as you lol :)</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I'm a guy and I straiighten my hair every single day. My hair is healthy as can be. But thats only because I use "Biosilk". Its quite expensive but well worth it. I get compliments on my hair every day and I've been straightening it for about a year now every day. <span>Report It</span><br /><br /> </p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yeah. it is damaging. but you can buy some repair stuff at any department store, just look in the hair section, by the shampoos and stuff, there's a bunch to choose from. look for something that will moisturize and repair damaged hair.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>if you don't use the correct products to protect it from heat, it can damage your hair. Products such as CHI or Matrix are very good they protect you hear</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>It makes ur hair dry and roots become weak. It increases hair fall u.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>If U Do It Too Much.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Once a week isn't bad. It's those people who straighten their hair every day that need to worry.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>once a week is great! i do it everyday, and it's horrible. but i recently started use this CHI hair protecter, and i love it! it comes in a red bottle, i'm not sure of the name though. i tested it also. i sprayed it on one side of my hair, but not the other. i then straightened my hair as usual. when i felt the side with chi sprayed into it, it was not as hot as the other unsprayed side! good luck =]</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>no not at all. i got my hair straighted and it looks hot</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>It can dry it out, use conditioner regularly and try not to burn your hair. Get your hair trimmed every 6 weeks or so.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>hmm istraighten my hair like everyday almost lol... it doesnt really damage it...theres some sprays u can buy to protect form damage.... but it does make my hair look dry =/</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yes, it is damaging, because you are practically frying your hair, but if you use a diffuser it will defenitely help out!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yes but if you use good conditioning treatments then it wont be as damaged i have curls and i only straighten once a week and then dont wash for two days that way i am not applying constant heat which is what damages your hair</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I personally straiten my hair at least once a day. i have been told it is bad to. but my stylest at the salon I get my hair cut at, says it isnt as long as your careful. what you need to get is a heat protectant. thats what will help keep your hair nice when you straiten it and wont damage it.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Very BAD! If you can't resist conditions like CRAZY!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yes if you do it alot think about it you are burning your hair to make it smooth so you shouldnt do it alot b/c your hair will get dried out and it gets really frizzy afterwards i have really curly hair and it got damage i had to let it grow and then cut out the fried hair but it constatly grows so as long as you take care of it is fine</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I think it can be damaging if you use a high heat and do it every day.</p><br /><br /> <p> However, if you only do it once a week, it should not do too much damage.</p><br /><br /> <p> Just make sure you use good products (shampoo, conditioner, straightner) and try and not wash your hair every day. The more you do to hair, the more the natural oils are stripped and that is what causes dry/brittle hair.</p><br /><br /> <p> You might also want to do a deep conditioner once a week.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Of course it's damaging your hair...u can use hair masks for recovering strenghth and shine like Glisskur19 or smth like this....</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>no r u crazy of coure not!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>it does damage your hair. but all u need 2 do 2 protect it...or at least help it is 2 use conditioner after u shampoo. hope this helps.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yes it is damaging. especially conair. the best thing is to work with hair that you have. if you have curly, leave it curly. or use a straightening serum like John Freida frizz-ease.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>yes starighting ur hair is bad </p><br /><br /> <p> i heard from an experiencec person that if u use it alot like once every day or two it falls off</p><br /><br /> <p> so its better to do it like once every two weeks and make sure u take hair vitamins and good moisturizers</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>of course its damaging your hair? check for split ends.. but if you go hair dressers regualry get a trim an a treatment you will be sorted. good luck!!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>It's very damaging to your hair so make sure you use really good shampoo and conditioner (ask your hairdresser to recomend a good one for you). Also, you should try to use a product which conditions while you heat style (you can buy them anywhere...Target, Walmart, etc) and if it becomes too damaged use a protien treatment (Chocolate Head by Bed Head is excellent). GL!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>conair is like really bad in the first place</p><br /><br /> <p> i straighten my hair like practily every day and my hair is as healthy as it has been b4 i started staighting it but i also u a really good conditioner so yeah</p><br /><br /> <p> and i use a chi ceramic and it doesnt damage my hairand i luv it</p><br /><br /> <p> heres the link to the protecting spray that i use</p><br /><br /> <p> oh and no youre not damaging your hair</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Any heat that you put on your hair can be damaging. This can include blow drying, curling and straightening. You can help prevent this with a heat anti-damaging product, that you apply to your hair before straightening. You can find this at any Sally's or local beauty supply store.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I have the curly hair problem and i straighten mine every other day. You are damaging your hair. But you can fix it by using treseme products for shampoo and such and also VO5 has good straightening gel.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Hey! I use a straightener by Conair every day and the best way to protect it is by getting a special spray that you spritz on before you straighten. VO5 makes one and if you want even more protection, try the heat defense spray by Biolage. The health and thickness of your hair is the main concern. If you have really thin or already damaged hair, then I'd straighen it less. If your hair is healthy or thick, then it can handle the heat. Just remember to condition regularly and you'll be good to go.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Well no matter how little you straighten your hair it is damaging, but you can do a lot to protect it from getting fryed.</p><br /><br /> <p> Since you have a ceramic straightener you're already fighting damage.</p><br /><br /> <p> But you can take it an extra step.</p><br /><br /> <p> Try buying some hair product that helps fight damage. Try Thermasilk Straight %26amp; Smooth leave-in cream.</p><br /><br /> <p> Avoid getting any hair products that have silicone in it. [Just look in the back for the ingredients that end with cone]</p><br /><br /> <p> also to avoid getting fryed hair try looking at this link:</p><br /><br /> <p> http://beauty.ivillage.com/hair/0,,bdgwq...</p><br /><br /> <p> Hope this helped!!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>There are many heat activated styling creams. Alberto has one as well as Thermasilk and many many other brands. Once a week is not bad at all but I would definitely recommend a protector. You can also just use a leave in conditioner. Be sure to use a good regular conditioner as well, and if you find your hair is being damaged try a hair mask.</p><br /><br /> <p> Straightening is slightly damaging but the amount you do it, you'll be fine. Especially with a styling protector. And it's excellent that it's ceramic. Not ceramic could damage you hair more.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Terrible! just TERRIBLE!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Is Straightening your hair bad?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Bumble and bumble makes a great product for protection; doesn't smell too good; but it works great.</p>zuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112491103391531585noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764461354131631729.post-74612457858251140512009-10-07T03:01:00.003-07:002009-10-07T03:01:49.655-07:00What is japanese hair straightening?<p>i've never heard of this, can someone explain it to me? i've only heard of relaxing hair, and heat straightening.</p><br /><br /> <strong>What is japanese hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Japanese hair straightening is a straightening process that is very advanced and causes hair little damage, compared to other straightening/relaxing processes.

I thought about permanently straightening it. NO. Let it do what it naturally does well. And when you get it permanently straightnened they use these really smelly chemicals, and after a while, your hair will start to break, dry up, and get really oily. And then it'll look like crap. Try some scrunching mousse it would be really pretty. Curly or wavy thick hair is beauitful. Just let it do what it naturally does. You will regret it.

Which way will give me the longer lasting stragihtness?</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Hey sweetie. I've been straightening my hair for 3 years now and I have a hair stylist also. Do NOT straighten your hair wet. When I get my hair done she washes it, blow drys it, uses Chi Silk Infusion on it and then uses a Chi flat iron. The flat iron is anywhere between 120-200 dollars depending on where you go and they have different colors and stuff. And the Silk Infusion is about 12 dollars for a small bottle. It's expensive but it works and keeps your hair looking and feeling smooth and healthy. =]</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Don't wash then straighten, it'll damage your hair. I wash mine at night, let it dry, and straighten at night. Then the next moring I just go over it real quick.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>You really shouldnt straighten wet hair with an electrical device. Maybe when its dry its better.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>wash it the night before and straighten in the morning. Keep your hair in a loose braid after you wash it so it will be slightly damp when you straighten it.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Do not wash your hair the day of. You need the natural oils in your hair before a harsh chemical treatment. they help reduce the damaging affects.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>The way that will last longer is if you wash it in the morning and then straighten it after you have blow dried it. Use some kind of frizzy hair gel stuff, and it will help you to straighten your wavy hair and make it last longer. I think the gel is BED HEAD.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Try washing your hair and than blow drying it before you straighten. But whatever you do DO NOT straighten your hair while it is still wet. This will cause major damage to your hair. If you wash your hair at night, blow dry it first and then straighten it. Than straighten it again in the morning. Try that and see if it works.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>wash when dry</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>was it at night and put on conditioner and overnight then in the morning blow bry it a lil just to get the heat on the hair then straighten it and blow it one last time after its all straightened thats what works for me so i hope it will work for you!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>You should wash your hair the night before, and leave in whatever you usually use for your hair. Let it dry over night and straighten it in the morning. If you straighten it when it's damp it will dry and damage your hair.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>THEIR IS THIES PRODUCT AT SALLYS BEAUTY SALLON ITS FOR WHEN U USE A STREIGHTNER ITUR HAIR WONT GET DAMAGE BUT YOU SHOULD TAKE A SHOWER AT NIGHT OR IN THE AFTERNOON AND LET IT DRY AND THEN STREIGHTEN IT AND IN THE MORINIG GIVE IT A NOTHER PAS</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Wash your hair then you MUST apply a serum to protect your hair from heat. Towel dry your hair wait a few hours before you straighten or you can use a blow dryer and use the cool air instead of hot air because hot air will make your hair more dry and dead. You need to ALWAYS use a serum to protect hair from over drying. Like garnier fructis sleek and shine, Paul mitchell silky smooth serum, or biosilk smoothing serum. They all work great and I've used them all. You want to blowdry and leave it a little damp. Your hair will straighten better this way. Think of ironing a shirt and when we use the steam part and wet and iron it flattens better and faster. I was told to never straighten hair when it's all dry that way kills your hair more and your hair becomes more fragile.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>My hairdresser says that the single worst thing you can do to your hair is use a flat iron on wet or damp hair. I always wash my hair in the morning, so I have to dry it before I straighten it. I have thick hair, but the trick I use is to wrap it in a towel for at least five minutes, and then air dry it for five more. Then I blow dry it, and it doesn't take that long. It seems like a long process, but it isn't really.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Wash hair before straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>The worst thing you can do to your hair is wash and then right after use a flat iron. Dont ever do that. You dont know how much i have damaged my hair from that. Dont ever try doing that. Always wash your hair at night and straighten i nteh morning. It will give you better results because your hairstyle will last longer. But if you absolutely have to wash it in the morning, then make sure its dry before you straighten.</p>zuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112491103391531585noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764461354131631729.post-47108292556327354882009-10-07T02:59:00.001-07:002009-10-07T02:59:25.742-07:00Can you get japanese hair straightening on hair that has been dyed?<p>If not, how long do you have to wait after the dye job until you can get the japanese hair straightening?</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can you get japanese hair straightening on hair that has been dyed?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i think you should wait till the dye gets a lil warn out. then do the hair straightening.</p><br /><br /> <p> because i dyed my hair %26amp;%26amp; then did the straightening thing too. and it burnt off a whole CHUNK of my hair, cuhz of the chemicals, and it took for ever to grow back out. so i suggest you wait.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can you get japanese hair straightening on hair that has been dyed?</strong><br /><br /> <p>No it can damage your hair. you have to wait a while after doing it</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can you get japanese hair straightening on hair that has been dyed?</strong><br /><br /> <p>i thik you cann ..i had mine straigtened a few months ago and my hair was dyes too</p><br /><br /> <strong>Can you get japanese hair straightening on hair that has been dyed?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I would not recommend doing it on hair that has been colored.</p>zuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112491103391531585noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764461354131631729.post-64664561658207612552009-10-07T02:59:00.000-07:002009-10-07T02:59:08.849-07:00Question about hair straightening?<p>Any tips on how to Kepp my hair straight after straightening it? Becuase every time i do the ends curve upwars.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Question about hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>if it usually curves out and up, try making the ends curl under a little while you straighten it. if they curve inwards (like mine always do), then straighten it so you have a very subtle flip to the outside. as they lose their straight-ness and would normally curve under, then they just go straight. same for if they naturally curve outwards, then they'll fall to straight.</p><br /><br /> <p> once you finish straightening your hair, then comb it all. straighten the ends as necessary until you get it as straight as you want. do a subtle flip in whatever direction you need, and you'll be good to go.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Question about hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>hairspray or gel. </p><br /><br /> <p> dress in layers because if you are over heated then your hair will flip due to humidity. hope i helped.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Question about hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>if you use a straightening gell before you straigten it that works for me.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Question about hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>You could try a shampoo that helps your help to get straight, then it will stay straight for a longer time.

And no one will ever "turn white" from hair-straightening treatments. </p><br /><br /> <p> And, for crying out loud, neither will ever get anyone accepted by either "black" culture or "white" culture. A black woman with straight hair is surely NOT going to get a "white ticket". And a white women can't be a "sista" simply by roasting in the sun. Nope, neither is going to happen... So why do we go on and on about "whites tan to be black" and "blacks straighten to be white"?</p><br /><br /> <p> Why are we stuck in such a stupid rut? Why can't we just stop BS arguments like this and accept that people are just people who do things because, duh, they want to do things?</p><br /><br /> <p> What's wrong with us? Why can't we accept each other?</p><br /><br /> <strong>"White" sun-tanning vs. "black" hair-straightening- Why is there an argument about the two?</strong><br /><br /> <p>some people just don't get it. i understand completely what you're saying. </p><br /><br /> <p> yea uh, people don't simply "do things". we're all influenced by something. but you [someone above] are not getting what this person is asking and saying. anybody with common sense should be able to see that she isn't claiming that people don't try to be something they're not. after all, that's exactly what you're doing when you alter your appearance [you're changing yourself to have traits that you didn't have before]. uh, hellllo! that's not the point. the whole point of the question is to ask why people think black women straighten "to be white" and white women tan "to be black". </p><br /><br /> <p> and excuse me, but anyone with a brain knows racism is why perms became popular. that's not the issue here. the issue is why are we still making these accusations? and it mostly isn't the white people doing it anymore. we're doing it to ourselves. the majority of white society has accepted "ethnic" hair and whatever people want to do with it. we, black people, are the ones who are turning gray over this nonsense. why? correct me if i'm wrong, Action, but i think what i'm saying is sort of where you were going with this question.</p><br /><br /> <p> and yes the curly hair arguement does make sense. do you see any whites accusing each other of trying to be black just because they get curls in their hair, or any black people either? no. no one accuses the white people of this, and that's what i think she's trying to say [that for some reason people are stuck on making hair accusations to black women just like they're stuck on making accusations about tanning to white women].</p><br /><br /> <p> i sure am glad that at least SOME people understand what you [asker] are saying.</p><br /><br /> <strong>"White" sun-tanning vs. "black" hair-straightening- Why is there an argument about the two?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Obviously nobody looked at the link... Blacks are constantly sold the same image, still today. All the images you see of perm boxes are of less ethnic women. Not only with straighter hair, but lighter skin.

Who cares?? But I can say that I'm sick of hearing black people on here say that white people are trying to look more "black".LOL...I always laugh my a*s off when I hear that. Because last time I checked, black women are not and never have been considered the standard of beauty...sorry. Unless we are speaking of the wiggers. That's a whole other issue.

Yes a standard of beauty created by white folks for white folks. To hell with their standard of beauty. Beauty comes in many shades and shapes.

People just do things because, in general, we all want what we can't have. I don't think it's necessarily a black or white thing either... Redheads want to be blonde, curly-haired people want to straighten, chubby girls want to be thin, thin girls want curves... the list goes on. It's just human nature...</p><br /><br /> <p> I agree with you that people should not judge others and act like someone's going to lose their ethnicity over a change like that</p><br /><br /> <strong>"White" sun-tanning vs. "black" hair-straightening- Why is there an argument about the two?</strong><br /><br /> <p>People don't simply "do things". There is a reason why people want to tan and why people want to relax their hair. And there is a reason why it's popular, and much of it is emulating something that you are not.</p><br /><br /> <p> Personally, I don't know why tanning became popular, but I do know that perms became popular due to racism and assimilation. Which is why rejection of assimilation came in style with the Afro and Black Power/Black is Beautiful Mov't, and why some black Americans choose not to relax their hair. However, I believe relaxers are so embedded in African American culture that it's not simply a "desire" to look less ethnic. But that's where the argument stands...</p><br /><br /> <p> Edit:</p><br /><br /> <p> Back In Action.

I'm afraid to get my hair Japanese Straightened too. I have wavy-curly hair that frizzes easily.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does anyone know any secrets to hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>use something to protect hair from heat before and after blow drying straight.</p><br /><br /> <p> flat iron methodically from nape to crown and sides.</p><br /><br /> <p> comb thru scalp area, apply flat iron and pull down the hairshaft together slowly.</p><br /><br /> <p> do not use anything with glycerine in it!(will make it more frizzy)</p><br /><br /> <p> GOOD GIRL for not getting the japanese straightening thing done.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does anyone know any secrets to hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>blowdry it using that thermasilk stuff because if you keep staighting it youll get spit ends</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does anyone know any secrets to hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>I use a large round boars head brush because it grips the hair better (less drying time), also I use Tony and Guy Bed Head in the green can but you can use any over the counter product. The secret is the boars head large round brush.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does anyone know any secrets to hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>put some light oil on your hair to keep it from damaging. then use whatever staightener you have. a chi is what i would recommend.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does anyone know any secrets to hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>you should always try brushing it out straight with a rectangular brush with wide bristles after towel drying your hair, and it's like, 60-70 % dry, minimum, or else it could break. Blow dry it straight with the comb and a good hairdryer (Conar is good). Then, use a flat iron and slowly go down with it, in a straight motion, you know what to do then!! So, -</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does anyone know any secrets to hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Use some kind of product or your hair will get fried. Do small sections at a time.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does anyone know any secrets to hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>If you can find it, get Matrix's "sleek look lock in system". I get mine from my salon, and it is like 12 bucks. Spritz it on before you straighten your hair. it locks out moisture better than any other product that I have ever tried (and believe me, I've tried almost all of them!!!). Your hair will steam and smell funny for a minute, but that's just the system doing it's thing. to keep it really straight for 2 or 3 days, I do it one day, and the next few days, instead of getting it wet and washing it, I put baby powder on it to keep it from getting oily.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Does anyone know any secrets to hair straightening?</strong><br /><br /> <p>just before you iron it, spray a little oil sheen in your hair, not a lot or it will literally fry your hair just a little, then when your done ironing it most of the oil sheen should be dried out, just spray n a little bit more and brush through and smooth out. dont use too much oil sheen, or your hair will b nasty greasy. your hair will be silky smooth and beautiful if you do it right tho.</p>zuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112491103391531585noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764461354131631729.post-40182135358315004292009-10-07T02:58:00.001-07:002009-10-07T02:58:22.672-07:00Has anyone ever had Brazilian Hair straightening?<p>I have curly hair, its thick, but a little shorter than shoulder length. much like this http://www.virtualhaircare.com/images/Ha...</p><br /><br /> <p> I was told that I shouldnt do Japanese straightening because my hair is dyed blonde. </p><br /><br /> <p> It this like a perm? which will permanently kill my curls?

Also, Garnier Fructis has a "sleek and shine" line that works nicely.</p><br /><br /> <p> when you dry your hair, use a boar bristle brush (google images it and you'll see)--that'll keep the flyaways and frizzies down and help straighten and smooth your hair out.</p><br /><br /> <p> hope that helps!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Straighter hair without straightening iron?</strong><br /><br /> <p>uhh i think there is some at target or wally world.</p><br /><br /> <p> maybe you could go to your hair cutter person and ask them to do it for you.</p><br /><br /> <p> (straighten hair)</p><br /><br /> <strong>Straighter hair without straightening iron?</strong><br /><br /> <p>try aveda hang straight straighting lotion.

Good Luck!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Straighter hair without straightening iron?</strong><br /><br /> <p>there are no products that will just magically make you hair straight just by using them, they just provide a base for the styling to help it hold. What you can do as an alternative to a flat iron is to either blow-dry it straight with a large round brush, or roll it in very large velcro rollers to pull out the curl and friziness</p>zuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112491103391531585noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764461354131631729.post-22310405099463535952009-10-07T02:57:00.003-07:002009-10-07T02:57:49.512-07:00How to style hair after straightening (MEN)? Gel, Wax, Paste, Gum?<p>Hey. Recently i bought a pair of small straighteners. I have 2 - 3 inches of hair that is shorter on the sides.</p><br /><br /> <p> The past so many years i have gelled my hair using Bryllcream.</p><br /><br /> <p> I invested in a pair of straighteners to experiment on different hairstyles. I like my hair spiked up with a fringe at the front.</p><br /><br /> <p> My main question is..</p><br /><br /> <p> After i have washed me hair, i blow dry, then straighten. My hair is very straight but needs styling. I know the style i want, but the problem comes to the products i should use. I have several gels and glues in a basket, all decent and expensive. I have tried wax and things but they leave my hair too light and fluffy, so i tend to use gel. The thing is how can i get my hair to stay straight after putting gel on?</p><br /><br /> <p> I find as soon as i apply gel it looses its shape, and i just go back to the old messy look.</p><br /><br /> <p> Can some1 give me some tips? Also, does it damage the straighteners if i straighten after the application of gel?</p><br /><br /> <p> I want hardish hair. Perfect HAIR?</p><br /><br /> <strong>How to style hair after straightening (MEN)? Gel, Wax, Paste, Gum?</strong><br /><br /> <p>wax then hairspray super hold</p><br /><br /> <strong>How to style hair after straightening (MEN)? Gel, Wax, Paste, Gum?</strong><br /><br /> <p>If your hair is even the slightest bit textured (like someone who's had an African ancestor) you should only use gel if you want a controlled curl or wavy hair. Gel wets the hair and once it's wet, it will revert to curly. To get straight hair to stay in place, use hair spray or hair grease.</p><br /><br /> <strong>How to style hair after straightening (MEN)?

I have bangs (that I cut myself last year) that kinda grew out. Then I dyed part of my hair pink for crazy hair day (permanently) thinking it would stay pink forever, but it changed to this ugly reddish color, which dried out my hair tons. So I went to the hair salon, got 3 inches chopped off, got some of the red out, highlights, and more layers. Because of the layers, She gave me more bangs. they start at about 1 1/2 inches and go to about 3 inches. I usually wear them side wept, but sometimes they just don't work. I have to straighten them because I have a really strong collic, but sometimes by straighter makes it too straight and it sticks out a little I think I can fix that be turning down the temp or the straightener, but I don't know. When I put it up (like in a ponytail) all my bangs fall down and it looks really weird. I can't clip it because they all very in length. I prefer to wear it down, though. Any advice?!</p><br /><br /> <strong>Hair/Bangs/Straightening Problem?</strong><br /><br /> <p>Well you have a tough situation. I think that because you cut your hair you should wear it down. Just because you wear it down doesn't mean you have to wear it one way. You can wear it straight, flipped up, etc. For your bangs soon it will get longer and reach your normal hair length. When you go running or something like that, then you can put it up it a pony tail, cause your exercising, who cares about your hair. Also keep your hair moisturized so your hair wont get dry.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Hair/Bangs/Straightening Problem?</strong><br /><br /> <p>well with the bangs instead of straightening them then just use a blowdrierto drie them and a paddle brush, it wont make them too tooo straight. try also to turn down the temp of your straightener. good luck</p><br /><br /> <strong>Hair/Bangs/Straightening Problem?</strong><br /><br /> <p>umm long story</p><br /><br /> <p> umm well i dont really get your question but</p><br /><br /> <p> since yoru straigthening them it will dry out your bangs eventually use these conditionar its called garnier Fruticis leave-in conditioning sleek and shine </p><br /><br /> <p> its really good and a great brand i recomend it to everybody</p><br /><br /> <p> It not only gets the tangles out it keeps it straight like a straighthener it smoothens itout and it WORKS which is very unusual with hair prosucts</p><br /><br /> <p> and it wasn't too expensive either it was about $3-$4</p><br /><br /> <p> Hope this was helpful! Hope your hair goes okay!hope the best fro you! Good Luck!1111111111111111</p><br /><br /> <strong>Hair/Bangs/Straightening Problem?</strong><br /><br /> <p>when you wake up take a moose and put it on the part of your bangs where your collick is. hold it down (as if it was without a collick) put a bobby pin where your finger is. go about your morning routine and once your bangs dry they should be wonderful.. i wouldnt straighten them though.</p><br /><br /> <strong>Hair/Bangs/Straightening Problem?</strong><br /><br /> <p>you ould cut it short so your bangs blend in like this http://www.short-hair-style.com/images/n...</p><br /><br /> <p> kinda like Victoria Beckham's do</p>zuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07112491103391531585noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6764461354131631729.post-66209349544625384262009-10-07T02:57:00.001-07:002009-10-07T02:57:18.395-07:00Is Brazillian Hair Straightening Dangerous - Formaldahyde?<p>I have heard many rumors about Brazillian Hair Straightening.
