How do I get my hair to stay straight?

I have really fine hair but i have lots of it. Every time i straighten it the bottom layer is wavy again before I'm even done. I've tried herbal essence, garnier, john frieda, thermasilk, sunsilk, biosilk serum. Nothing works it either looks the same or my hair becomes really weighed down! Thanks

How do I get my hair to stay straight?
You should buy a Conair Pin Straight. It does wet 2 dry. It's only $30 at Target. I love mine! Try straightening right after you shower. There's a better chance that it will stay the way you want it. I hope this helped and good luck!
Reply:wow you tried all of those! hair straightener, i like sunsilk, avon has a straightener product. or just let it be...
Reply:get some gel called jam put a small amount in your hands rub through your hair and brush it until it's straight.
Reply:i've tried tresemmé, john frieda, garnier, redken, %26amp;%26amp; l'oreal.


l'oreal %26amp;%26amp; redken seemed to have worked best for me. my problem is dealing w/ humidity. :\
Reply:First, dry your hair in two large sections. While it's still wet, part your hair the way you normally wear it. Dry it from top to bottom, combing it down as you dry. In other words, hold the dryer above your head, and dry it at a downward angle. Do this on both sides until your hair is about 85% dry.





Second, apply a smoothing serum to your hair. I'd reccomend Garnier Nutrisse "Sleek and Shine Force Anti-Frizz." Put 1 to 3 drops in your hand, depending on the length of thickness of your hair and work it from root to tip. It will look somewhat oily, but don't worry, once you follow step three it will really work into your hair to create a nice smooth look.





Third, use a ceramic 1" flat-iron on 2" sections of your hair. Section the top of your hair off with a clip, and start with the bottom section first. After you've straightened the bottom, let the top down and straighten it. I'd reccomend the Revlon "High Heat Professional Tourmaline Straightener." It works every bit as good as a Chi, but will only run you about $38.

Reply:spiking gel! put a small amount in your palm and mix it with a teeny bit of water and mix it with your straightening cream. your hands will be super sticky and your hair will get crunchy if you use too much so be careful
Reply:you need a flat iron with a thermostat on it, a dial that you can adjust the heat on it. I know how you feel and i had the same problem before you need to blow dry it first and use(my best friend) Paul Mitchell super skinny serum you only need like 2-4 pumps it's really concentrated so don't go over board with it. I think it's $18 a bottle but it will last a long time because you don't need that much i hope this helped you out
Reply:get a lightweight creme to protect your hair for when you blowdry it straight. believe me, blow drying is really important - i have the EXACT same hair as you lol. so after your hair is completely dry and straight, spritz it with a heat protective SPRAY and divide your hair into the top and bottom layers. straighten the bottom, then let the top loose and straighten that. when your done, apply some shine serum or anti-frizz serum. then, spray a touch of soft-hold hairspray into your hands, rub them together, and run them through your hair. this is what i do when i straighten and it comes out perfect!!





now, the products you use are also important. for sure, invest in some salon products. get some smoothing shampoo and conditioner, like matrix sleek.look. then get a very lightweight leave in conditioner that u put in soaking wet hair. my favorite is The Conditioner by Paul mitchell. (some ppl say it smells gross, but i dont think so, plus it works really well w/o weighing your hair down). after that, wait until your hair is just slightly damp before you put in to heat protective cream. my favorite is the straightening balm from sexy hair concepts - it comes in a little silver tube, for about 15$. blow dry, pointing the nozzle down to smooth the cuticle of the hair. then spray more heat protective product - i think the best is Heat Protexx by Nexxus - smells really good too! straighten hair in thin sections. after you are satisfied with the straightness, use some shine serum or anti-frizz stuff. the BEST shine serum is Shine Junkie by TIGI Bed Head - INCREDIBLE shine!!!! sleek.look's smoothing milk is also good for silkiness, but its not as shiney





HOPE I HELPED!!!!!!


happy straightening
