frizzy hair help ********************************************************** 12-31-03, 08:53 AM Texan-In-Exile Join the club, girlfriend! Big Grin
Some strategies I've tried for frizzy hair: Leave the conditioner on! Pull into a ponytail until dry. Rub in a small amount of conditioner when brushing hair. Spritz with water after brushing and let dry.
They don't all always work, and sometimes alternating methods occasionally can help.
Good luck! Smile ********************************************************** 01-02-04, 08:52 AM samantha omg my hair is frizzy long and thick too! I hate it Mad ********************************************************** 01-05-04, 12:21 PM aminator2002 There are all sorts of anti-frizz products out now that are really good. I just got some L'oreal anti-frizz creme (I think it's L'oreal, it comes in an orange tube about 4" high)... it's not as oily as some "Finishing" creme that I have from Paul Mitchel.
It can also be called straightening creme... look at your drugstore. You take a little tiny bit and lightly run it through your hair... it's fabulous stuff. No more frizzies. ********************************************************** 01-05-04, 04:00 PM Georgia85 I seldom have trouble with frizzy hair in the winter, mine gets frizzy in the summer when there is high humidity.
But what I recommend is a good silicone based anti-frizz serum such as Zero-Frizz. I find that it is better than Frizz Ease. I also recommend Sebastian Shaper Hand Press flattening fluid.
But these products are only as good as the person styling your hair. If you are going for a straight and sleek look it is vital that you put these products on and comb through evenly. Then you must section your hair off and blow dry one inch sections, pulling each section tight and thoroughly drying each section. It is not unusual to take up to 30 to 45 minutes to do a salon quality job of blow drying. But you will be satisfied with the end results! ********************************************************** 01-12-04, 10:45 PM Earthangel_Uk I had the same problem with my hair! I tried many different conditioners and anti-frizz serums none seemed to work well.
My friend an hairdresser suggested that i should try using a Hair Straightener?-(Tongs)!
Well i gave it a go...And it really works!
I have found that i only need to use the hair straighteners once a week. Basically to iron out the frizziness! And the rest of the week, i can wash and style my hair as normal, without having to use any anti-frizz serums. My hair now feels really silky soft, looks shiny and in good condition. Smile ********************************************************** 01-13-04, 08:03 AM Georgia85 We call those "flatirons" here in the US. I'm glad your hair is in good condition Earthangel...you are a lucky one. Flatirons often cause more damage than good for many who use them.
For those who do want to try them keep in mind that you are apply intense heat directly to the hair so use these irons sparingly. Never use them every day and avoid any alcohol based styling products as the alcohol will dry your hair out even more. ********************************************************** 01-13-04, 11:24 PM Earthangel_Uk SmileThanks for that Georgia85. I forgot to point out the damage they can cause with mis-use.
Never use on wet hair! Your hair should be dry. and Never pull the hair through the irons!
Take a small section of hair at a time. Starting about 1 inch from the scalp, place hair between the irons, and gently glide the irons downwards.
Im not sure on what types of "Flatirons" you have in the USA.
But in the Uk, If you were looking to purchase, I would recommend "Nicky Clarkes" Hair Straighteners. by Londons Top Hairstylist they cost around £30.00
