How to make hair straight without using flat iron/blowdryer.. on fairly straight hair with wavy ends?

I have weird wavy ends. like the last inch or two


I try to make my hair all wavy but it doesn't work


I used a friend's flat iron, but it damages.. and i can't afford one that works.


i chemically straightened my hair once.. I thought it would last awhile.. save money? but it didn't.. and it damaged my hair


anyway, I was wondering if there was a product that would work without using a blowdryer or flat ironHow to make hair straight without using flat iron/blowdryer.. on fairly straight hair with wavy ends?
I'll tell you how. The results are not great though, but it does make your hair appear less curly and a little more on the wavy side.





Actually, I know two. Both have to be done overnight.





Buy some large rollers. Spirtz a tiny bit of leave in spray conditioner (I think Pantene has one) and put some sort if anti-frizz product. Roll your hair tightly around the rolls, and sleep with it on, or for at least 6-8 hours. Unroll your hair out and add more anti-frizz and just a tiny bit of leave in conditoner to add some weight to your hair. the appearance should be slightly wavy to straight hair with lots of body.





Second thing you could do is get your self a pack of large bobby pins. Make sure your hair is free on tangles. Use the leave in conditioner and the anti-frizz like the first suggestion. Separate your hair in four sections. With a fine tooth comb, comb your hair very tightly and against your scalp and wrap around your whole head like a bandage. Secure the piece with bobby pins. Do the same for the other pieces. Make sure they don't have any bumps and that the pieces are smoothed down. If you want, you can get a hair net to keep the pins in place..also works for idea #1. This is something you can sleep with comfortably. I got this idea from how long haired people prep their head if they are wearing a wig. In the morning, remove all the pins and comb your hair. You probably will need to massage your scalp. Do that in a circular motion. Put a styling creme that will weigh your hair down as well as your anti-frizz. The result should be straight with a slight cripped look. If some pieces look out of place, adding a few thin braids can be interesting.





I gurantee no damage.

without thermal stylers like flat irons or blowdryers, you can try straighten or sleek shampoo, conditioner and stylers, but I doubt it will give you the stick straight results you are seeking. When you use a flat iron or blow dryer, be sure you use a thermal style protector and don't flat iron wet hair. VO5 makes some you can get at wal-mart. When blowdrying, make sure you follow the hair shaft from root to end to encourage your hair to lay straight and not damage the hair cuticle and use a ventless brush with natural bristles. Plastic bristles tend to break the hair.
there are lots of products out there in the uk theres john freada thats quite good have you tried cutting these ends off as sometimes it good go wavy due to damaged and split ends straightners are only 拢30 for cheap ones and if you use protective stuff first like a product like loreal it shouldnt damage it or u could try what my mates used to do when they where little use a iron that u iron ur clothes with!!! lol
i know u said no blowdryer or flat irons...but i have really curly hair and hate it..i got a straighter called Remington wet2straight i love it...it really works and is only like 20 bucks at wal-mart...i couldn't find anything, cause the ones i tried made it look frizzy or fried...this one keeps my hair straight all day..

Please help on how to flat iron and curl my hair !!!?

Hi, when i flat iron my thick/ frizzy hair it takes 45 mins. and i usually burn myself!!! how can i not burn myself? i try to hold the hair away from my face but i mess-up. i have been straightening my hair for over 7 years and ahh!! Also how can i curl my hair? sometimes my hair wont hold a curl. help!! Also, i really need a new curling iron and a new flat iron, but i seen on tv there's this new one with little heat, and it can do both things to your hair, and you can leave your hair wet. do you know what that is called? i was watching it on paid programing.


please help! any info will do! also i tried goggling these things, but only weird youtube videos came up.. ahh!!


i have the 2 inch red flat chi iron. and some old black iron. i use hair spray.


thanksPlease help on how to flat iron and curl my hair !!!?
Okay, all I can really help you with is the curling question. This is how I curl my hair-and it holds all day.


Begin by applying a styling gel, mousse or styling spray. Your curls will form better if you use good quality products.





Clip your hair back in multiple sections. Release one section and brush or comb it to remove any knots or tangles. Spray lightly with a soft-hold hairspray if your hair is very fine and doesn't hold curls well.





Begin with the undersection of your hair, working your way up to the top. Twist a small section of your hair with your hands for spiral curls, or take a flat, larger section for loose curls.





Curl desired hair





Roll the iron up and hold it for about 10 seconds.





Open the curling iron and release the curls. Proceed with other sections until all areas have been curled.





Flip your head and shake out the curls, then style your hair with your fingers.





Spray with a light hold hair spray to keep your curls in place.


Good luck and I hope I was of some help! Please help on how to flat iron and curl my hair !!!?
Keep practicing.
Well with the straightening part... do you use a clip to put the top layer of the hair up, while you do the under layer? If not this will help tons. Also straighting your hair for 7 years can do some damage, hopefully your using some pre-straightner product (can't think what its called :P but i use it, and love it) Maybe your straightner is old. I love my straightner I got at a salon, cost me $120 but is nearly imposible to burn your self, and its better for your hair. As for curling, with an iron, when your hair is wraped around the iron use a light hairspray, dove works great, and spray a few sprays, once all finished use a heavier hair spray, there are tons of products out there for different things, i would go to a salon and ask a proffesional, they will be able to help you tons!

    I am black with an afro. How can I straighten my hair without relaxer, and wtihout a straightener?

    I don't want chemicals in my hair, but I am tired of straightening it with a hot comb/flat iron. Or are there any products that just define the curl pattern to make it more manageable, or even relax them slightly?I am black with an afro. How can I straighten my hair without relaxer, and wtihout a straightener?
    I am not sure if you can straighten hair ? I don't have an afro so not sure what is normally done ,but I usually leave in a bit of hair conditioner in my hair and I dries really nicelyI am black with an afro. How can I straighten my hair without relaxer, and wtihout a straightener?
    If you want to be able to have a natural look but also be able to straighten it easily try the Just for me hair softener. Now this is a CHEMICAL PROCESS. But it is way more gentle than a relaxer or texturizer. Also try products from missjessies.com.

    What are some ways to straighten your hair?

    i know you can straighten it with a flat iron


    how do you blow it straight with a blowdryer?


    just list dome different ways you can get your hair straightWhat are some ways to straighten your hair?
    I use the blow drying method on my boyfriend. He's afro American and has never received a relaxer. His hair is beyond his sholders.





    I use a Salon style blow dryer, ( Porcelain Ceramic by Babyliss Pro )


    A two inch Round Brush ( Conair Ion Shine )


    Profectiv Mega Growth Anti-Breakage Strengthener





    In order to get his hair pin straight with bounce and shine. I do the following.





    After a wash. I lightly towel dry to leave some water in his hair. I message his scalp and hair with a small amount of Mega Growth then comb through with a large tooth comb.





    I part the hair in small sections ( 1 1/2 inch think and 2 inch wide)





    I take the brush and wrap the hair from the bottomside of the brush to the topside of the brush. Don't wrap the hair from top to bottom over the brush. This will not take care of the kinks the roots get. By wrapping the hair from under to over will get the brush to pull the hair straight at the root and the blow dryer will focus more on that area and make it straight and shiny.


    Gently pull the brush down and make sure to have the blow dryer follow the brush to the ends. Once you've done this then you can wrap the hair over the brush from topside to bottomside. Do the same thing with the blow dryer.





    WARNING! Make sure when your pulling the brush and the blow dryer that you go slow so the heat will actually dry the hair. I've seen the big poof that happens when you blow dry too fast. Go slow over the hair on the brush. This is what makes it straight and shiny.





    After I do this through out his whole head, his hair is already straight and shiny. But to get it some staying power I just go through it with a Flat Iron. I have an inexpensive one by Conair which is the Conair Infinity 2'; .





    I hope this helps. God knows it's helped his hair.What are some ways to straighten your hair?
    Ive tried using the blow dryer but my hair is thick so it usually just ends up a big tangled mess! i recommend a CHI flat iron! i love it! worth every penny!
    blow dry it by wrappiung your hair aroung a big brush meant for blowdrying and slowly pull your hair out while blowdrying it.

    curlers


    relaxers
    When I was in school a girl used alot of vasoline.
    Usually you can blow dry your hair straight. My hair is really thick so it just makes mine poofy. I think you should get the Chi Flat iron!!!! It is so worth it! I bought it about a year ago and I鈾?it!!!! You could also go to the salon and get a perm, but that is really bad 4 your hair and when it grows out it will look wierd. Anyways, I hope this helps you!!





    Jamie%26lt;3
    ok i got it! a straightener works good (be sure to use heat activated shampoo and conditioner to protect your hair) or a straightening serum. and for shiny hair??? i've done this and it works awesomely. pour about a 1/2 cup of vinegar (i know it stinks!) and leave in your hair for a couple minutes, then condition you hair. or rub honey in your hair and rinse it out. good luck!!

    Do you think a guy using a flat iron to striaghten his hair is gay?

    So many guys have straight hair and skater/punk hairstyles or even some normal people with emo hair. I'm sure they straightened it, but i was wondering if girls care if a guy straightenes his hair. Because on the packages of the striaghteners, which there are like 6+ brands, it only shows girls on the covers. So yeah, and i might striaghten my hair just for a change and to see how it looks, so thats another reason why im askingDo you think a guy using a flat iron to striaghten his hair is gay?
    no... its HOT ... go for it, and if u don't like it, its not the end of the world, because its just a temporary thing. but guaranteed, girls with mostly like it %26lt;3Do you think a guy using a flat iron to striaghten his hair is gay?
    your only gay if you take it in the pooper.....or put it in the pooper of another man.





    i hope this cleared some things up.
    As long as you don't spend as much time on your hair as *I* do on mine, there's nothing wrong with you using a straightener. Guys who care about their physical appearance are very sexy.





    (Vulgar though it was, io is also correct.)
    no your not gay, just cause you straighten your hair your not lots of my guy friends do it and none of them are gay
    No it is not, my boyfriend uses a straightener almost every day, and I KNOW he is not gay. I also know a ton of guys who do it daily.


    Give it a go, you might find you like the way your hair looks better when it is straightened.
    Go for it ......no I don't think it is gay.
    No its def. not gay, my friends use that all the time........and they are not gay......so no worries
    No, I don't think it is. Just as long as you don't spend way too much time on it.
    Dude I don't care.


    I actually like straight hair on guys.





    I straighten my boyfriends hair all the time.





    Go for it.
    no!
    I dont think its gay i actually like guys who take the time tostraighten their hair. I think it looks sexy. you should try it
    I think it's cute. Definitely not gay.





    : )
    no defiantly not gay


    they just care about what they look like


    which is a good thing

    Straightening hair with a curling iron?

    How do you straighten hair with a curling iron....i cant find my flat iron and i want to straighten my ahir...all i have is a blow drier and a curling iron... what should i do????Straightening hair with a curling iron?
    you can blow dry it straight...if you have any product you can use put it in your hair first.


    OR you can dry your hair straight...use your curling iron and start at the root and slide down your hair. You can either flip it slightly out at the end OR you can turn the iron upside down and have the end of your hair flip in. Either way looks cute!Straightening hair with a curling iron?
    It can be done. Just put your hair in the iron as if you were going to curl it, just pull it straight down, and dont bump the ends.
    instead of wrapping ur hair around it just hook it to the top of ur hair like a straigntner then go down :) it might curly under or our on the bottom though
    If you take it from the roots then bring it straight down i think it will become straight if you dont have a flat iron.Hope i helped:)
    umm.. let see you know how you use the curling iron you would turn it in circles to get your curls but if you want a striaght hair with a curling iron dont turrn it circle just use it like you are using straighting iron.... hope i help [it worked for me]
