I have THICK frizzy/curly/poofy hair! PLEASE HELP!!?

I am 14 years old and I have curly hair, about 2-3 inches past my shoulders, and its VERY THICK, and that causes it to go frizzy and poofy, and the curls definitly don't help..I've tried straighteners [ flat irons ] ..but nothing expensive and it didn't help..I'm thinking of buying a good salon flat iron but I'm not sure what else could help it?..any tips? should i get it chemically straightened? or what ? PLEASE HELP. I always have to wear my hair up in a bun because its so thick and poofy and I can't even wear it in a pony tail with out getting embarassed!

I have THICK frizzy/curly/poofy hair! PLEASE HELP!!?

Ok well my hair used to be like that. First of all, my hair stylist told me that your hair changes every 7 years, so take a deep breath. From the time I was born until I was like 7, my hair was so straight and silky, and a little thin. Then after that, my hair became thick, curly, poofy, etc. I used to just wear it out, because honestly, as a kid you don't care what you look like. But then, when I got into the 6th grade, and all of my other friends had boyfriends, I started to notice a problem. I had a crush on my best friends brother, and he told me I was pretty, but my hair was not attractive. So one day, my friend put my hair in a bun, and I wore it like that almost everyday until I was 14. Then, I started to buy special lotions to put into my hair, and then straightened it. It was still thick, but it was straight. It took a few hours each time though, especially since my hair was so long. Then at 14, I figured out a few secrets, first, shampoo your hair every day, but only condition every other day. Second, when you condition, leave the conditioner in for about 5 minutes to get your hair really really soft. Then, after you get out of the shower, towel dry your hair slightly. Next, brush your damp hair with only a paddle brush. They work well, and do not snag or break hair. Then, apply an anti-frizz serum thoroughly though your hair. And lastly, when you wake up, flip your hair over, and run finishing cream through your hair.

I have THICK frizzy/curly/poofy hair! PLEASE HELP!!?

Well I am 25 years and I have been using baby oil in my hair. I know i know, baby oil ruins your hair, BUT I had the same problem that you had. I know use baby oil with FRUITIER strightner serum in the small pump after I get out the shower and it tames my hair. I really hope this helps, especially if you want it straight all you have to do is use the baby oil, the serum, blow dry straight, and then straighten with the hair straightner. This is what i have been doing for years...check out my profile with my straight hair, hope this helps

k so im 14 too and i have "big" curly hair too and i used to think that it was the worst thing and i couldnt do anything with it and i used to always wear it up but now ive come to love my curls, see every morning after my shower while my hair is still wet but not dripping i put about 3-4 squirts of gel in it evenly but not the strong hold but relaxed stuff anyway it works like a charm also never brush your hair for too long and never after il starts to dry itll frizz, good luck all this stufff worked for me.

I have THICK frizzy/curly/poofy hair! PLEASE HELP!!?

As far as your frizz goes you can say good bye to it. There is a product by "I. S. O." called "Bouncy Cream". Not sold in stores only available in salons.

Call the salons in your area and find you who carries "I. S. O.".

It does work.

I have natural curl myself and use the product every day.

Hope this helps.

WOW! talk about my hair twin! yeah isnt it soo anoying you cant wear your hair in a ponytail! err, but anyways heres what i did to fix my problem: I saved up and got a Sedu flat iron which works AMAZING! better than a CHI any day becuz the original CHI only has ceramic plates and the original sedu has tourlemine/ceramic for best smoothness. i bought mine of folica for about $125 (but sooo worth it) so heres the rest of my routine:

1. in shower wash with Neutrogena triple moisture shampoo, condition with BioSilk Silk Therapy (designed to work with heat)

2. get out of shower, blot with towel, apply Matrix sleek.look extreme styling cream and Biolage leave in conditioner.

3. take blowdryer on cool setting pointing nozzel down and just run through hair to remove excess moisture. (blowing straight=too much work!)

3. wait till air dries the rest of the way, spray a little bit of Nexxus Heat Protexx all over hair, and flat iron that hair!

4. after smooth,sleek, and straight take some Redken glass 01 and warm in palms and apply to hair. (smoothes frizz and adds shine)

5. Done%26amp;GORGEOUS!!

i also make sure to deep condition once a week with neutrogena triple moisutre replenishing mask or if thats too heavy for you, try something like Dove Therapy deep conditioner!

hope this helps alot! xoxo ellie閳?br>I have THICK frizzy/curly/poofy hair! PLEASE HELP!!?

I have a really nice Chi straightener. It works really well but it also depends on the technique you use to straighten your hair.

I have THICK frizzy/curly/poofy hair! PLEASE HELP!!?

Have you ever tried a regular iron, like for clothes? I know it sounds silly %26amp; I wouldn't recomend doing it on yourself, but they get hotter that flat irons %26amp; I swear they work REALLY well.

You could maybe just embrace your curls. Maybe buy styling products made to make curly hair look pretty.

for frizzy hair http://www.hairstylescut.com/healthy-hai...

I have THICK frizzy/curly/poofy hair! PLEASE HELP!!?

I think there are several things you can do. The foundation of hair styling begins with shampoo and conditioners....

My favorite, I have seen it at Rite Aid, Walmart and salons is the Joico Kpak line. Shampoo, conditioner and reconstructors once a week....

I would follow up with the Joico leave in conditioner and style with Joico smoothing balm. Its a straightening cream that is heat activated and protects your hair. You will find your hair much more managable....

For thick hair, there is a KMS product "Flat Out", its a glossy product. Not only does it keep the hair controled, it helps to close the cuticle that prevents te frizz....Citre shine liquid is also a good one.

I would use the gloss after you finish styling, it controls and you get an awesome shine....

Good luck.......

I have THICK frizzy/curly/poofy hair! PLEASE HELP!!?

control freak shampoo and conditioner and then use after party smoothing cream all by Bed Head. These are safe for your hair and should work.

Does anyone know of different styles for curly hair?

I have curly hair and I love it. However I can only wear it in a bun, ponytail or cascading down my shoulders. I wonder if anyone know any simple styles for curly hair. I like wearing it down but I don't want my hair to look the same every day. And sometimes I just need it out of my face. Can anyone help please.

Does anyone know of different styles for curly hair?

u might try doing it half up and halk down and i think up doesare realy cuit 2

Does anyone know of different styles for curly hair?

pick up some hair in thee front of ur forehead as if u were going to have straight bangs ,, place those hairs on top of ur head and make a poof ,, instead of putting it straight back move it more to the side and fasten it with a clip from cvs =)

Does anyone know of different styles for curly hair?

If you do a half up half down style i think it would be very pretty.

To do that, It's almost like making a pony tail except you only put up the top half (or less). That way you end up with your hair out of your face, but it's still down.

Does anyone know of different styles for curly hair?

Try the front half up and the back down. Through the front up into a messy bun or add a clip or barrette just to add design to it.

Does anyone know of different styles for curly hair?

Try the half up half down look, headbands, clips, pigtails?

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

ok the top half of my extremely thick EXTREMELY curly hair is made up of tight curls, where as the bottoms are tight but not as tight so the top somewhat like a mushroom sitting on top of my head with some hair sticking out from under it, and when my hair is curly it starts out straight but different parts grow faster than others and when i straighten my hair, its crazy uneven, what should i get done to help this

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

Here, i too have curly hair, this is my hair cut. Layered. But do not layer it too much, like a four inch difference from top to bottom if your hair is long, like mine. I swear, it is really nice. It is rounded on bottom, curly, but not crazy, and healthy. But if you do not think that will work for you, I found a good website for you:

Use clippers and go bald.

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

Don't get layers when you cut your hair, try to keep it one long length and keep the longer bottom hair trimmed a bit more then the top curlier hair.

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

i think you should go to a hair stylest and see what they can do

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

1. a stylist who knows how to deal with curly hair. if you are a white girl i would suggest a black stylist. not to be prejudicial or anything, but most black women know how to deal with super curly hair (more so than white women)

2. try a straightening serum for the top layer. or even a few rollers.

get good ethnic haircare products now. 'mizani' is a great product line.

sorry , baby girl, but you might need to drive to the city.

if you can't make it then try rollers (great big ones - even orange juice cans)

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

what you should is to met your hair dresser or a hair specialist and you should try to wash your hair with good shampoo and hair wash.

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

to make it thinner you can get it thined professinally. For the curliness you can wash your hair and then cut it. Good Luck

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

I have the exact same problem but opposite so I understand what youre going through. If its not naturally even, you need to make it even. I use a product called making waves. Its amazing. You can buy it at any salon. Put that in your hair and scrunch it at the bottom only, where there arent as many curls, and try to smooth out the top a little bit. Then blow dry it with a diffuser, with your head upside down, trying to focus mainly on the bottom. That should work great for you. Good luck!

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

First of all DO NOT CUT YOUR HAIR!! The best thing to do it pick it up for now but let it grow. Trust me I know what Im talking about I have really thick curly hair and I had the same problem as you but I let it grow and now my hair is pretty and long. Hope this works for you. Good Luck!!!

I need to know how to cut my curly hair to fix this problem?

make sure your hair is straight when you get your hair cut. Then when it's curly it'll be fine, and when you staighten it wont be all uneven. I have really curly hair too, and in my experience, some stylists just don't deal well with SUPER curls.

Why isnt my hair curly?

i used to have really curly hair when i was just a lil girl. now its just wavy?

Why isnt my hair curly?

Sometimes peoples hair changes as they grow up, just like how some people loose hair as they grow older. Either that or if you did something to it like straighten it that could be why.

Why isnt my hair curly?

well its genetics.lol i think wavy hair is better you get the best of both hairs.lol(straight and curly.)

Why isnt my hair curly?

Why isnt my hair curly?

Why isnt my hair curly?

Hair simply chanes as you grow .

Why isnt my hair curly?

that happens to alotta ppl....things change when u get old...like my hair was bleach blonde, when i was lil now its darker blonde

Why isnt my hair curly?

Here's a clue. Take a looksee at Mommy and Daddy. Your hair just might look like one or both of theirs. If they both have curly hair. You might want to talk to Mommy without Daddy present.

Why isnt my hair curly?

Hair changes in texture, color, and curliness with age.A reputable hair salon can help you get the look you are searching for. Good luck and have a great day.

Why isnt my hair curly?

i had the opposite thing going on... when i was younger i had straight hair but now i have really really curly hair... honestly idk but i would rather have straight hair!

Why isnt my hair curly?

It's in your genes...There are things called dominant....and recessive genes. I bet that your recessive gene is curly hair, which you had when you were younger, but as you got older your dominant gene is expressed...meaning it showed as you got older...I have no idea if you got it. Okay, you had curly hair when you were younger but as you got older you got wavy hair. This happens because your body is reacting to certain hormones...like going through puberty...I hope that helps...

Why isnt my hair curly?

and here i am, wishin for my hair to go straight
