Please Help me.......Hair Emergency?!?

I recently bought a Smooth'n Shine Therapy Silk Fusion Reconstructor and would like to know If I have to use a Conditioner with it or If I can use it alone.


Thanks :)

Please Help me.......Hair Emergency?!?
i dont think its an emergency, but you should use conditioner
Reply:yes u can use it

Prrobblemm?

okay i have like a major problemm.


my silk therapy like antifrizz stuff like came out superfast out of the bottle and now my hair is like so greasy from it! i cant wash it and let it dry and straighten b/c i dont have enough time (dance comp in a half hourr). is there anything to get my hair not to look greasy without washing it again?

Prrobblemm?
baby powder


just put it in your hair


OR


I know it sounds gross but you know that paper that you put around the toilet seat in public bathroom? Take a piece (of a new one of course) and rub it around it your hair. It will take out all your grease. It works so good!
Reply:definately try using talc!
Reply:Ok, this sounds really weird, but honestly, it DOES WORK. Put some corn starch in your hair, it absorbs the moisture. Your hair will look white, but it is so so easy to just comb out with a brush! Good luck and have fun at the dance!


Plrrz help me on shamppooos ?!!?

i dont know which shampoo to get!


i want super soft hair, thats shiney as well.


my hair is normal.


i was thinking of either redken all soft or biosilk silk therapy. what would you recommend?

Plrrz help me on shamppooos ?!!?
redken all soft is good...so is redken smooth down..


Back to Basics Coconut Mango Rich Moisture Shampoo also works really well...


but i would REALLY recommend TIGI S Factor Smoothing Shampoo! its wonderful one of my favorites!
Reply:I use John Freida, People tell me all the time how shiney my hair is.
Reply:redken is good, but i'd recommend aussie. i have one that's specifically for shine, and it makes my hair really soft. For shine, you should use a shine spray. they are like $3.00 at drug stores and looks amazing!
Reply:Try John Freida in formula for your hair color. Always use the frizz control after shampooing. Good Luck!

Biosilk or redken?

im trying to fiigure out which shampoo to buy.. biosilk .silk therapy or redken all soft...? which would you recommend?if you tried both [preferred] which one would you prefer?

Biosilk or redken?
Redken...i love it...its what the pros use, but not overly expensive and it doesn't dry out ur hair like most shampoos do...i use it every other day and it works fine for me...my favorite is the one that is for dry or conditoned hair or something (it comes in a tall brown bottle sometimes)
Reply:Redken all soft. More benefits for the hair plus smells yum
Reply:i've only used redken all-soft and it is a good shampoo...but i'm not crazy about the scent.





makeupalley.com is a great website to research beauty products.

What to do with my thick poofy hair..?

Well I want to do something than just sticking it in a ponytail...Some products I have at home are...biosilk silk therapy,garnier fructis anti-frizz serum,mousse(sp?),and other random hair products....I just took a shower so my hair is damp right now...I have a blow-dryer and a straightener(which doesnt work too well).....Any suggestions would be great

What to do with my thick poofy hair..?
You could straighten it! Wait till your hair is dry though, or else you will fry your hair!





1. Blow Dry hair


2. Straighten hair all around head, make sure it is evenly straight all the way around.


3. Part your hair on the side








That should be really cute. And it is simple too. If your hair is thick, I wouldn't use mousse, it is usually volumizing, and by the way you described your hair, you don't need any more of.


How to grow out relaxed hair to natural?

okay i am a sophmore in highschool and want to transition my hair. I havent had a relaxer in 2 months and have about 1'-1.5'' inch. of new growth. I want to do the trim as it grow regime.I wash hair once a week and deep condition with smooth shine silk therapy(60 sec. critical repair), then blowdry,straighten, and wrap, and also use isoplus oil sheen and a lil bit of indiam hemp grease for extra shine. My hair is healthy and drink water only a daily basis. Just give me good advice and what products should i use on natural hair like shampoo,etc. I trim ends every 3-5 weeks. How long will the whole process take i expect at least a year!! The relaxers i did use contains no lye and i also wonder what hair texture may look like cause even with a relaxer i was still able to wear hair wavy/curly with mousse. Please just give good advice and personal experiance and good guidance and i am not doing this on my own. Thank you

How to grow out relaxed hair to natural?
I think what your doing just about does it...keep it up because you will notice breakage during the transition phase.


I use vitale products on my hair check out what they have at:

I need a new hairstyle?

so i have long hair.. all the way down to my butt.. I have bangs..





my hair is dry... when i wet it and dries all nappy and frizzy.. i've tried many things.. Moose and hairspray makes it worse...





so i usually braid it.. like a "pipi longstocking styly" and have curls at the end and straighten my hair..

(i'm the girl in the yellow)





oh. and when i striaghten it. it comes out more dry and dead. i put on silk therapy. and sometimes that works.. but other times.. my hair just finds itself in knotts..





and please don't suggest to cut it. i love long hair. and when i say 'dead' i don't mean like split ends.. i just have that type of dry hair. that isn't so smooth.

I need a new hairstyle?
personally, i think your hair is really adorable! i absolutly love it! maybe you should just get some highlights...perhaps a nice blonde?? or a natural red?? and then go get a trim...you might even want some choppy layers. i have choppy layers...they are super cute!
Reply:as long as I been doing hair, so many people come to me with the same problem , I love your hair , just love it. I know you dont want to cut it and thats good but the dead ends to need to come off , if you dont get them off soon it will slip soooooo far up that it will start braking off and you will end up with short hair and i know you dont want that. so it should be trimed every 6 to 8 week , the silk therapy work fwounders keep using it i use in on myself i have the same problem . noooo color it will make it 10x worse. put a deep conditioner in it every week , meanig leav it in for 30min. under heat if you can. to much heat on your hair is whats damaging it you are curling it to much your hair is trying to tell you that you it cant take all of that, that why it fizzing up , listen to your hair , it knows best when its geting damaged on the ends your doing to much of somethin that you need to quit. outher then that there not much you can do. hope things work out for you.


use a perfesstion line of conditoner on your hair , save, pantien, tresama, is all very damaging hair shampoos go to a salon.
Reply:french braiding or a fish tail braid would also be really really cute with long hair.


Alsoo. my hair used to get really dry from blow drying all the time. i use bert's bees Avocado Butter Pre-Shampoo Hair Treatment and then garnier fructis shampoo and conditioner but instead of washing my hair out with hot water i use cold water because that makes hair extra shiny. i then apply some shine serum and let it dry a little and then blow dry and its no longer dry. i add a little more shine serum after i finish blow drying it to give it an extra healthy look too. hope this helps.


Help! shampoo !?

im going today to get a shampoo. i either want biosilk silk therapy or redken all soft. i want to know which one i should get.. i read a lot of reviews but i want to know for sure.what do you prefer?and which one makes your hair super soft and shiney? thanks!

Help! shampoo !?
I would recomend Redken All Soft. of all the Haircare brands I have used, I have always been the most satisfied with Redken. Plus each collection has a solid line of products that work seamlessly together! Redken is a great haircare brand
Reply:biosilk by far
Reply:I recommend 'Sunsilk - Lively Blond'

What do you think of Biosilk?

I use Biosilk Silk Therapy Drops every day, and it works amazingly! Just a tiny squirt makes your hair non-frizzy, and it makes it shiny and healthy. What do you think of the product?

Reply:go to a proffessional salon, expennsive haircuts have the best quality.





ask for them to cut i above the shoulders and below the chin with small angles and no layers. if you have poofy hair, ur gonna end up having a bad hair day, and the layers will be in all the wrong places. anyways, dont ask 4 layers again!! but ask then to take a pair of thinning shears and thin the hair out dramatically, but tell them u dont want thin hair, u want fine hair. also, get a color gloss, that will help it regain natural shine. i agree, CHI is a great kind of flat iron for the days you want it straight, but if you want it curly, get a small barrell, and a thick barrel curling iron and do valumtious curls every where around you head.








once youve gotton home and showered for work/school, leave the hair wet and apply a shine boost that keeps the hair gorgeous and lightweight. i suggest pure color shine boody with anti fade complex. its in a squarish pink bottle at most good salons. if your having a bad hair day, and dont have time to set out your do', then accesorize, pullit back, but add a funky broach or slick it all the way up to a sleek stylish bun.








hope this helps!!
Reply:My hair used to be poofy. Maybe you need a haircut. Turns out, that my stylist forgot to thin my top layer, so I got this mushroom head look. Maybe you should go to a professional stylist and ask if your haircut was done right, and ask about how to prevent other problems.
Reply:Go see a hair stylist and tell him/her that you would like your hair thinned out.
Reply:Get a relaxer in your hair or get a better straightener CHI is the best, if you want to thin it out go get your hair done and tell them you want alot of layers tot hin it out. and let your hair dry naturally
Reply:We have like, the same hair


And my straightener sucks too.





HA!


Sweet, okay.


Well basically I had really awesome hair once, but it was totally by chance.


I was too lazy to fully dry my hair, so I only half-dried it, slept on it, woke up and I had funky kinky hair.





That would only work if you have straight hair w/ lots of wavy kinks ... it's hard to explain.


:) i'm interested in peoples answers to this question ...
Reply:i have the same hair.... i like to use either tresseme mouse or this extra strong hold mouse at ulta beauty anyway.... i use that and i make sure not to miss an inch of myhiar becuase... believe me people WILL notice.... any way.. after that is appled... do not touch it cuz the oil in your skin and the texture of ur fingers will take out the texture of what to mouse did. **you dont have to do this but it gives it curl: get a dry towel and put it in ur hands and scrunch ur hair in it DO NOT TOUCH AFTER.... let it dry for about 2 minutes by air then spray some hairspray in it and then it ok to touch =] hope it works


My Hair Feels and Looks Dryer Than Before?

I just recently got my haircut (I grew it out for about 2 years). It's pretty long, about to almost my chin. Anyway I got it cut and right after it was cut it felt amazing and I could run my fingers through it and what not, my hairstylist used a flat iron on my hair and I loved the results, it looked badass! now I've been doing it my self for about 2 months I use "Sunsilk frizzy cream, Paul Mitchell's Super Skinny Serum, and Biosilk Silk Therapy" in my hair after everyshower, I take a shower every other day or every other 2 days. The thing is I can't run my fingers through my hair as easily as I could 2 months ago and it feels pretty bad compared to what it was 2 months ago :(, do tell me what you guys think because I'm somewhat ignorant when it comes to hair, also I only flat iron my hair for 15-25 minutes every other or every other 2 days... it looks a bit dry too! I would appreciate if someone could suggest what I can do to help my hair, I have naturally wavy/curly hair.Chi FlatIron

My Hair Feels and Looks Dryer Than Before?
a hair iron + silicone based hair care products = fried hair





Silicones have a low boiling point, and some are small enough to penetrate the hair shaft, below the cuticle.





So, just imagine this.. you apply a product containing silicone, and remembering a percentage of the molecules will be below the cuticle, then you use your hair iron %26amp; boil the silicone molecules.





The molecules above the cuticle are not too bad, however the ones that have penetrated the hair boil internally %26amp; cause severe structural %26amp; cuticle damage to your hair....





the answer - use silicone free products only


hope this helps





((( a hot hairdryer will also boil silicone)))
Reply:before drying your hair, make sure to apply a moisturizer on it to prevent it from drying out while straightening it.
Reply:The best way to find the best products for your hair is to try them all. That would be pretty expensive but go over to a friends house and use some of her stuff. See how it works, and just keep trying new things. Hair may work with products from this company and not that company....it's all trial and error.





If I can suggest something, I would suggest you try a hot oil treatment....for a cheaper way to have great soft and silky hair with less frizzies, warm up some olive oil (regular cooking stuff) in the microwave and massage it into your hair while it is dry. Wrap it up in a warm towel from the drier and sit for an hour or so. Maybe give yourself a facial at the same time. Then get in the shower, and shampoo out all the oil (because water won't get the oil out--oil and water don't mix) and then condition your hair. Viola! Beautiful silky hair.





The most key thing to protecting your locks is to stay away from all heat. Yep, that means no hairdrier, no straightner, no curling iron either....It's very hard not to advert to these products but just try it for a week. Don't blow dry your hair for a week....try it. I know it's hard not to but if you stay away from things with heat such as blow driers, curling irons, straightners, etc....you will notice a HUGE change in the feel and look of your hair. It will be so much more healthy.
Reply:You are likely over moisturizing. Believe it or not too much moisturizer can make your hair feel "dry". All heat sources will damage your hair. Even though you do not use it for long periods or everday you hair is not living, it is a dead extension made of protein just as your nails are. Every time you apply heat, the damage progresses and cannot be reversed. You can mask the damage but growing new hair is the only way to remove it. Use one simple mositurizer on your hair after washing and rinse thoroughly. You can use a heavier conditioner once a week or every other week as a treatment to help smooth the damaged hair. I would limit the heat source to avoid more damage.
Reply:The flat iron is drying your hair and you have to get a trim because it has been two months and it's time.





I prefer the Maxiglide by Maxiusbeauty.com because it incorporates steam to smooth out your hair without frying it like a flat iron would.





If the flat iron has a lower setting, you might want to experiment until your heating level is just warm enough to smooth out your hair without destroying it.





If there is a way you can go a little longer between using the iron, the healthier your hair will be. If you wear your hair flat and smooth, you might want to wrap your hair at night.





You would:


Brush your hair around your head and pin it up with flat hair clips. Then, tie your hair with a silk or satin scarf.





In the morning, let your hair down and comb and lightly brush your hair into your style.





Your products are fine but be careful handling the flat iron.
Reply:Go to your hair salon and ask the stylist what you should do, buy what they put in it.
Reply:use a heat protecting spray. flat irons are brutal for hair. at least you have the best straightener available, so you should be fine in the long run. just don't put too much stuff in your hair, that dries it out too.

What kind of spray or serum can I use to protect my hair while straightening it?

Recently, I started using the Sedu Hair Straightener to cause less damage to my hair. I also use Biosilk Silk Therapy after I straighten. But my hair still doesn't look as healthy or shiny as I want it to. Is there something I can use before I straighten that will protect my hair from the heat or help moisturize?


Any input would be appreciated! Thank you. =)

What kind of spray or serum can I use to protect my hair while straightening it?
hey lady,


i use products by CHI called silk infusion.. you can get it at certain salons for about 15 dollars or other salons for like 22 dollars.. not too cheap but works great!!!!! its a protein that protects the hair as you style it.. it protects the hair and keeps it from becoming damaged because it IS a protein. apply a LITTLE bit to your hands before you blow dry it, AND before you straighten it (but only a little drop before you straighten with an iron) and then if you want a little after your done styling it. it smells awesome and really gets your hair soft!!! its worth the money, you will get your moneys worth as well as healthy, beautiful hair no doubt.. you will loove it!!! good luck!
Reply:ghd iron oil is really good but only spray a tiny bit on or your hair will get heavy
Reply:You should try Iron Smoother from Matrix. It is from their sleek look line in the orange bottle. I spray each section I'm gonna straighten just once to protect the hair. It feels really nice on my hair and I just run a finishing serum when I'm done and my hair feels soft and not dried out. Give it a try. They sell it at beauty supply stores, salons, and I think maybe Target. It's around $13.
Reply:Chi Iron Guard is specifically for flat irons. Follow directions and spray as you go. Also recommend that you use Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum in hair when damp as that also helps to straighten and condition hair as you go
Reply:Try using a di-frizz serum on your hair as you straighten it. Try doing a layer and put the serum on it then straighten it then do the next layer untill it is all done. That is the way i straighten my hair and my hair is healthy and shiny. I hope i helped you.
Reply:USE OIL SHEENSPRAY.THERE IS ALSO SOME HAIR STRAIGTENING CREAM SOME ARE AT FAMILY DOLLAR BUT IT LOCKS IN THE STRAIGHTNESS!

Im starting to go gray and am premenopausal, my hair is giving me problems?

My hair used to be totally straight. Now that Im just starting to become premenopausal my hair has started to become kind of curly, frizzy and drier. The main problem I am having is my numerous gray hairs like to stick straight up when they are growing out. Also the frizziness makes my hair always look messy...HELP. I now wear my hair pulled back in a bun or ponytail but the hairs stick out and constantly look messy and unbrushed, even when Ive just pulled it back. Ive tried numerous deep conditioning treatments and buy leave in conditioners and smoothing balms,silk therapy etc.. How do I manage my frizzy, messy hair?

Im starting to go gray and am premenopausal, my hair is giving me problems?
if you have frizzy hair, but want curly hair, try this:


use Denise McAdams hair serum shampoo stuff, or Nicky Clarke. you have to wash your hair in warm water, not hot because heat activates certain hormones and your hair will be lifeless and limp.


dont brush your hair when it's dry; only when its wet, that will help to get proper curls. dont use a hair dryer cuz that will just dry your hair out and make it REAL frizzy!


hope this helps! phants x x x
Reply:get Suzanne summers book the sexy years. It is not what you are putting on your hair that is the problem. it is what you are putting or not putting in your body! How is your diet?

Reply:try some deep heat oil treatments that should help with both and some deep conditioning which will help as well other then that use some get
Reply:sometimes gray can grow different than your young hair .either you have alot of split ends (get cut) or use a conditioner but leave a little bit in dont rinse well. OR COLOR IT bye!
Reply:have you tried buying a straightener? if you have enough time in the morning while you're getting ready its a great investment, it heats the hair just enough to iron it straight. I use one almost everyday and i don't have a problem with any sort of hair damage. Also if you buy a straightener (ceramic plated are the best) you can buy a product called thermal that just gives your hair an extra protective layer from the heat, you put it on before you straighten it.
Reply:Try Frizz Ease, it works really great! And maybe a straightener. And this may seem strange, but you can actually smooth a small amount of your regular moisturizer onto your hair to keep it smooth for hours! Just not so much that it looks dirty. And as for those grays...try Clairol Natural Instincts, it isn't an actual dye. It just gives your natural color a wake up call and covers those grays. Hope this helps and good luck!


Hair straightening tips?

alrightyyy, i have a hair straightener and its coriolis(i think thats how you spell it). well my ahir is supper curly and i love straightening. what are some things i can do to improve how my hair looks? **example: put silk therapy before?**





i want it to look professional for about 2 -3 dayss%26lt;33





please i will really appreciate it if you can give me tips

Hair straightening tips?
I wouldn't use silk therapy. Ever. It is almost pure alcohol which is very drying to your hair, especially if you use heat styling tools. I would use a cream like Loreal Texture, it protects from the heat and makes it even softer. Plus it smells great! Also, you should be using a good moisturizing conditioner on a regular basis!
Reply:Buy the sunsilk straightening shampoo still you will need a straightener
Reply:.
Reply:get the chi straightiner, its like magic... seriously, i lllooovvveeee mine... good luck!!! =]]
Reply:HI! I WORK IN A SALON, AND I USE AQUAGE BEYOND SHINE SPRAY! IT PROTECTS YOUR HAIR FROM THE FLAT IRON. YOU'RE ACUTALLY BURNING OFF THE PRODUCT INSTEAD OF BURNING YOUR HAIR. AND MAKE SURE YOU'RE USING AN IRON WITH CERAMIC PLATES. IT LETS THE HAIR SLIDE THROUGH MORE EASILY INSTEAD OF PULLING IT AND BREAKING IT OFF LIKE METAL PLATES.
Reply:you can always got to your salon or hair dresser and have him/her wash it and sraighten it for you if your hair doesn't get greasy really easy it should last until you have to wash it again
Reply:you just have to get a heat protecting mist to spray on it before you straighten it( i use v0-5). i straighten my hair in sections so it comes out better, then i put garnier fruticus sleek and shine serum on it to smooth down the flyaways and frizz and it comes out shiny. just dont use too much because it will weigh down your hair. and during the day if your hair gets frizzy just bring a dryer sheet with you in your purse and run it over your hair ( believe me it sounds crazy but so many people do it and it works great ) :) hope it helps
Reply:i think u should use panteen anti-friz and if ur going to straten it use gotta be strait spray

Reply:You can blow it slick-straight. That always looks good. Keep it shiny and smooth. You can put it half-up, if your bangs are long enough. You can also take a center piece of the hair (about the width of your pinky finger) on your crown (directly above the space in between your eyebrows) and pin it back with a barrette. I think that looks really cute.

Biosilk cheaper?

Whats a good secure site i can order biosilk silk therapy ?

Biosilk cheaper?
Go to Folica.com


Biosilk...?

I recently bought a bottle of biosilk ( farouk silk therapy ) for hair but it says on the bottle that it can be applied to skin..Did anyone try it? Can u put it on face?

Biosilk...?
Yes, you can absolutely use it on your skin. I get eczema in the winter, and this helps me tremendously. It's a little oily if you apply it directly to your skin, so what I do is get the amount of lotion I would normally use and then add 2-3 drops of the silk therapy. I rub it in my palms and then apply.





It makes my legs feel fantastic after shaving, I love it! Sometimes when my cuticles get bad, I'll also rub some of it directly onto my nails. I use it in my hair as well of course, but you have to remember that a little goes a looooooooong way!





Good luck!
Reply:Excellent product.It was initially for skin.Then it was discovered to be a powerful treatment after washing the hair.On damp hair its great for control while blow drying.It gives shine.On dry hair its a great tool for the frizzes.Helps smooth the hair.
Reply:usually you can use hair product's on your face but bio silk is very silky, so it might be a Little slick.


good luck.


Good leave in conditioner?

I have wavy hair which I flat iron quite often, I have a heat protectant (BioSilk Silk Therapy) and my hair is shoulder length and frizzy. I'd prefer a spray but I'm open to anything.





Thanks

Good leave in conditioner?
My favorite is Healthy Sexy Hair Soy Tri Wheat Leave in Conditioner or It's A 10 Miracle Leave in Spray. You don't need a lot just a few spritzes

Tigi Catwalk, Bed Head, Sebastian Body Double, Paul Mitchell or Biolage. Easy 10 pt.?

I am an African American with shoulder length hair. I have average hair(not course) that I perm every 4 wks (Olive Oil relaxer) that has not been colored in about 2yrs and I dont plan to color it again. I am currently using Biosilk Silk Therapy shampoo and conditioner plus the serum. Although I love Biosilk line I would love to use some other line to alternate with it. What I look for in my hair is volume, body, softness, cleaness, and for curls to stay in when I curl it with my chi iron. Which of these products would you recommend or if you know of any others that may be of help. Please be honest and give me a reason why you think a product may be good or not for my hair type. Thanks.

i love the biosilk serum, but in my personal opinion the shampoo is way to heavy and does not get my hair clean. i am not a big fan of anything above but i am a big fan of redken products. i think that the all soft is the best for your hair type especially since you perm it because the all soft is for dry and brittle hair. it makes the hair more manageable and will help to keep your hair strong at the same time. check around at all of the regis based salons such as regis, cost cutters, smart style ect. they will have some packages for the holidays that have the poo and cond both for a great price so you can try them and they all have a return policy! that way if you don't like it then you can take it back and try something else! i say stick with the serum you are using though. i think it is the best that you will find.
Reply:i think the paul mitchell products work just as good as the biosilk
Reply:i use bead head which works good on my thin hair. I think tigi or paul mitchell will work best for your hair. depends on which of their products you buy. good luck=]

HELP!! Just Highlighted my hair, now when I blow dry it is breaking and falling out....?

When I get ready to blow dry my hair i put silk therapy oil on it and run it through my hair, it feels fine. As soon as I turn on the blow dryer and try to dry it I cant even get a brush through it and it is falling out. It is only happening on the bleached part,.. what can I do?!?! it hurts to blow dry and pieces of my hair are breaking off and falling out!!! HELP!

HELP!! Just Highlighted my hair, now when I blow dry it is breaking and falling out....?
first of all your are killing your hair with heat dont do that just let it dry naturally and you may not have washed all the bleach out wash your hair really good and leave the conditioner on it and let it air dry do that for a few days and if it doesnt stop you may have over processed your hair and need to go to a salon
Reply:Stop touching it, throw a hat on, and head to the nearest salon.
Reply:You either didn't do it right or your hair was just not strengthened enough for highlights. Did you say you did it yourself?





Get it professionally done. You can't go wrong with that.
Reply:dont brush it while blowdrying
Reply:quit blow drying your hair. The bleach did some damage to your hair, and now with heat drying, you are making it worse. Let your hair air dry or if you are going to dry it, don't put the oil on it. Use a lower heat for blow drying, and try a shampoo that is heat protective. Dove has a new one out.





talk to your hairdresser if it persists.
Reply:well i dought its the blow dryer, i got highlights a few times and in the begining ur hair dose start falling out alot i. it shud stop 3 weeks after getting ur hair done.
Reply:you are not supposed to do that! the oil is to smoothen your hair, when you start to blow dry it, you are basicly frying your hair!
Reply:put some sort of oil treatment in your hair before blow drying it, this will help from you hair getting so dry and breaking off.
Reply:You are cooking the oil ... try using a regular conditioner and skipping the blow-dry until you make sure you haven't damaged your hair too much between the bleaching (highlighting) chemicals and the heat from the dryer ... you might have to get the damaged ends cut off to keep the damage from expanding ...
Reply:go back to your stylist or go to a Sally beauty supply store and purchase an olive oil treatment.squeeze afew drops into palms of hands and massage thru towel dried hair

How much damage does chemically straightening your hair do?

I use a straight iron almost every day. My hair is frizzy waves but looks good after I spend 30-40 min straightening and with the help of silk therapy. Should I think about straightening or will this cause more damage? How long does it last? Can I color with it? Whats the average cost for shoulder length hair? Thanks for any advice!

How much damage does chemically straightening your hair do?
I did a magic straight on my hair and it last about 5-6 months.. it somewhat does damages your hair.. I got this done because I didnt want to sit and use a straight iron every time I was my hair.. you can color your hair but it's better not to because it will get more damages on your hair.. try coating.. it's like glazing and protects your hair from being damaged from the sun.. you can pick your colors but that will last about 1 month.. the price ranges.. I did mine for $175 from a well known hair salon.. prices are cheaper in some places and a bit higher..
Reply:it dries up your hair but conditioning every time you wash your hair would really help. :]





how long? it depends upon you if you use it everyday try washing your hair every other day or every 3 days..





you can still continue but lessen the use of iron..





yeah you can dye you hair it depends you can color it by yourself though..





-we are the same, i iron my hair.. i colored it.. and my hair is shoulder length too.. :]
Reply:you should be using a thermal heat protectant on your hair as you straighten it. then put the silk therapy on afterwards, it is just for shine. also you have options w the curl and straight look. when you were it curly put a cream for curly hair on it when its dry. redken spin control is great
Reply:Don't do the chemical straightner(Relaxer). I did it to my hair because I had curly hair and i just wanted my hair straight for a couple weeks (i did not feel like straightening it the long way any more) and it was anything I wanted it to be, my hair felt like all the oil got sucked out of it and my hair was breaking real easy and now ai have to live with frizzy hair instaed of curly hair 4 ever. Don't do it.


Softening Cashmere? Just bought new and it's scratchy!?

I just bought a new cashmere tunic from Griffen brand cashmere. The label says 100% cashmere... but it feels like wool. I was really disappointed when I bought it, but I'd like to keep it since I love the tuinc style, which is sort of hard-to-find in 100% cashmere.


Does anyone have any suggestions on how to soften it? I've already tried hand washing it with shampoo and conditioner (didn't work). I'm t the point now where I'm going to try using hair softening product such as Biosilk Silk Therapy which I use to make my own hair softer.


Help!

Softening Cashmere? Just bought new and it's scratchy!?
Some grades of cashmere are finer than others. I own a half dozen cashmere sweaters, and I've noticed the difference in the grade of fiber. At the coarse end, it shades into something only slightly softer than lamb's wool.





Any cashmere can be improved with some very careful hand washing. You do use detergent, but if you use shampoo it should not contain conditioner. Just the 'poo, nothing else. I use yellow Joy mild dishwashing detergent.





Fill a bucket with warm water. Squirt in a teaspoon of detergent. Swish around with hand. Put sweater in water. Press air bubbles out of sweater. Walk away for six hours, or overnight.





Next day, fill another bucket with clean warm water. Also clean the bathroom sink well. Very carefully, then, put hand under the sweater in the sudsy bucket and lift out the whole sweater in a ball, letting nothing hang out. Transfer wet sweater to sink and press, press, press the water out... but don't twist or pull. You should never twist or pull wet wool, including cashmere, because it won't got back into the right shape if you do.





Again form the sweater into a ball and put into the clean water to rinse. Press sweater to mix out any remaining detergent. Carefully lift sweater out of the water as before and press the water out in the sink again. You might want to rinse a second time from the faucet, and press yet again.





Remove the damp sweater from the sink, still in a ball, and unroll it on top of a clean, dry towel. Roll the sweater up inside the towel, like a croissant, and then sit on it to make the water left in the sweater go into the towel. Then unroll the towel, roll up the sweater by itself, and transfer the sweater to a clean, dry spot. Let air-dry for 24 hours.





The sweater will be softer as well as cleaner when the drying is finished.

Reply:Send it to the dry cleaners, or go back to the store you bought it form and ask how to soften it.
Reply:Wear a silk camisole underneath, it'll help. Be careful not to use hot water! Liquid downy fabric softener may help. Lay flat to dry.
Reply:I'm not sure how to make it softer. I can tell you that I can't wear cashmere at all or angora. I'm allergic and have the same problem you describe. Is it possible that you are allergic?
Reply:were a soft camisole or tank top underneath it, is it really real cashmere though? it should be really soft.

How can hair treatments make your hair healthy if they have a lot of alcohol in them?

I'm using biosilk silk therapy, and nuetrogena intense hair masque, but i don't see a diff in my hair, and how can they repair your hair when they have alcohol in them?

How can hair treatments make your hair healthy if they have a lot of alcohol in them?
Hair cannot be repaired, as it is dead when it grows out of the scalp. The alcohols in many products are emollients, which are moisturizing to the hair. Many of the alcohols are by-products of vegetable sources, such as Cetyl alcohol Cetaryl alcohol. But there are alcohols that are drying to the hair, which has the opposite affect of the aforementioned. These include alcohol denat, SD alcohol, etc.





Don't rely on products to improve the condition of your hair. They can help 'mask' damage, and the right products can help to prevent damage, but they cannot treat damage. The best way to improve the condition of your hair and prevent damage is by minimizing manipulation(chemical processes such as coloring, thermal reconditioning, perming, highlighting, etc), good health(mental and physical), trimming damage to prevent splits from spreading, and just being wise to what you are using on your hair. Learn about the ingredients; about how your hair responds to them. Don't just assume because the product says that it's for _______ type of hair, that it is the best product for the hair.





Remember that the FDA doesn't regulate what claims are made product manufacturers(e.g treats damage, makes hair grow). They only regulate the ingredient listing. So, the best thing is to just do your own research. Look at the ingredients, and look up their purpose. You'd be surprised at what you find.
Reply:Great information! Report It

Reply:What KP says is true, hair cannot be "made healthy again" it is not alive outside of the scalp. It is like a frayed rope when it is damaged, you can put things (products) that make it look and feel better, but they are basically just putting a form of wax, oil, or even plastic polymers on the hair making it feel and look smooth for the time that they last on the hair. Some come out as soon as the next wash some stay in longer. Alot of them build up, sometimes making things worse. Some "good" products contain alchohol as a thinning agent to get that item onto the hair. If you find something you like, I like Biolage conditioning balm, it's still a good idea to do a vinegar rinse to strip all soaps and waxes off of the hair once a week or every two weeks. I like just regular apple cider vinegar as a rinse in the shower, just pour a little in hand apply to hair work through with hands and rinse out.
Reply:The best way to test a product is to use it for 4 weeks. I can recommend a hair treatment by Arbonne that my stylist switch to. I see a difference in my hair. It look a smoother, shinier, and thicker. go to www.arbonne.com and use consultant ID 16301108. They have vitamins and all natural hair products.


I have short hair and it's really poofy and straight (not frizzy), how can i put it down?

My hair (1 or 1.5 inches long), when slept on, is put down. After waking up and going to take a shower it grows poofy and straight up. I've heard about BioSilk Silk Therapy, does that help mend my hair down? If I grow my hair long will it go down? Or are there any methods to keep my hair down? (I don't feel like using gel/pomade because it gets ruined easy and not permanent for whole day)

I have short hair and it's really poofy and straight (not frizzy), how can i put it down?
hmm u can try mousse, its lighter and not as damaging to the hair especially if u get it alcohol free. u can also try hot oil treatments which u can get from any drug store to help with the dryness. and u can try hair serum if u dont want anything to harden it. u could also get a hair straighter and straighten it since it wont take very long because its short. and u can work straight hair girl! wear cute earring and make up to bring out ur eyes =)
Reply:you can use japanese straightening and then it will always be straight. last about nine montha and is around five hundered dollars.
Reply:have you tried a heavier conditioner to weight the hair down or a leave in conditioner that might help
Reply:I used to have the same problem. I grew my hair longer so that if it was really bad I can just pull it back. Otherwise I recommend VO5 Hair conditioning oil. It is usually in a tube and doesn't smell so wonderful but it works great! I am always trying new products anyway and I always come back to this. It is nice because it workds without heat. Just be carefull not to add to much because it can be greasy.
Reply:my hair used to be short n frizzy too. have u tried just straightening? if not, the japanese straightening is more effective if that doesnt work.
