How can i make my hair straight again if i have curly hair now without a flat iron?

when i was younger i had pin straight hair, now its really curly from mousse %26amp; gel i put in it , i straighten it with a flat iron sometimes but thats not very good for my hair, anyone know how i can get it back to pin straight ?!How can i make my hair straight again if i have curly hair now without a flat iron?
There is no way you can get it back to pin straight ';naturally';. You have to go against the texture of your hair to make it conform to a style you don't naturally have (now).


Blow drying is an option - use heat protectors that will lock in moisture and protect your hair from heat damage. I use Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Relaxing Balm when blow drying and it works WONDERS; my hair is silky, shiny and straight. Use a quality blow dryer as well to help preserve the condition of your hair. My stylist uses a Chi blow dryer and at home I use a titanium Jilbere blow dryer.


You didn't mention what kind of flat iron you use. I promise that you will notice the difference if you use a high quality iron (if you don't already). I personally use the Chi Turbo and it works great. But the key here is to use a protector when flat ironing to help your hair resist heat damage. I use, as well as my stylist, Redken Heat Glide. There are plenty of flat irons and heat protectors on the market; don't be intimated to ask around and see what works best for you.


A last option would be to get it professionally straightened. One method that comes to mind is Japanese Thermal Reconditioning. I haven't used this method, but I'm sure others can give you their input about this. It is a pricey process that will permanently straighten your hair - until regrowth comes in and you will need touch ups. I don't know how effective this is, but I have heard that it usually doesn't leave hair PIN STRAIGHT and requires touch ups with a straight iron or blow dryer. I've also heard it is quite damaging and shouldn't be used on colored or chemically treated hair. Ask some stylists about this procedure and google around to find info about this.


Overall you need to consider a few things before making a decision. How much are you willing to spend and invest in your hair? How much time are you willing to put in to styling it every day? Blow drying and flat ironing will probably be the least costly of the choices by far but you will have to put time into doing your hair. If you go get it relaxed or otherwise permanently straightened, you will have to consider the cost of upkeep (touch ups will probably be needed once every 4 - 6 months.) You will also have to consider that all methods can be potentially damaging to your hair. Consult with a couple of stylists to see which option is best for you.How can i make my hair straight again if i have curly hair now without a flat iron?

relaxer and sorry to say, flat iron.
You can't make curly hair pin straight without a flat iron. But if you really don't want to ruin you're hair, try blow drying your hair straight, and using hairspray or gel to keep it down. Certain types of shampoo can help with curly frizziness too. (Herbal Essences) :D
try washing and conditioning it with sunsilk's straighten up....then blow dry and use a diffuser. finally, use a straightening serum to keep it that way.
um, blow drying ur hair will not make it straight if its naturally curly. try and get some relaxing gell if it is the frizzy kind of curly. if not, then just deal with it. an easyier way would be to get a big fat expensive streightener. they work in seconds!! they are my life saver for the frizzles haha good luck!!
BLow dry it when it is still wet. But if you want to do it with a a flat iron just put some special spray. They make spray that protects your hair from the heat. I use it on mine and it works BIG TIME!
Google S facter then have products to make your hair like really straight. The spray works the best you apply it with wet hair.
You can take a hair dryer and a hair brush (Mind you it must have little holes, well not must, but you could burn your brush if it don't have some sort of ventalation).


When your hair's wet, brush through it while blow drying it, (med heat to high) Go over it until dry or striaght.


It will take pratice, but once you get the hang of it's
