Okay, I have dinner with my grandma this week. And I need to know how to straighten my hair. I have very curly, very thick hair. How do I straighten it with the freakin' blow dryer and not kill the muscles in my arms? How do I straighten my hair, period?

Try using a flat iron. They work alot better than trying to straighten your hair with a hair dryer or curling iron.

Hope this helps.

ok...not exactly a solution to your problem, but ever think about a wig?

Is it okay if I wet my hair before using it or will I get electrocuted?
Stupid question, yes, but I'm not taking any chances.

Okay this is where i come in. I have like the thickest hair in the world.

Flat irons dont work on my hair cuz I have a lot of it....

I use Pantene Pro V Keep It Straight gel....you get your hair kinda wet and then put the stuf on and blow dry it with a flat brush...it works for meee.

Hmmm...I have some straight gel that I've never used, I'll try it tonight!

Sorry Hon! I have very straight ,straight hair! You can have mine! I wish I had more body /curl to it!

But I understand your problem! Back in the 60's my girlfriends ironed their hair but I don't know how it's done. I never had to straighten my hair! Hope someone can tell you a safe way to do it!

It works best when you're hair is really dry and you've put gel in it and let it dry.

White_Daisy · 02-02-2003, 10:02 PM

I've come to the conclusion that it cannot be done with only me so I am asking my friend for help tomorrow.

I want it to be straight! I don't want body, I don't want curls, I especially don't want people asking me why I want to straighten me hair, I just want it straight!

That was the most superficial thing I have ever said. Please forgive me!!

JoJoJoJoJoJoJoJoJo · 02-02-2003, 10:04 PM

Amen to that.

LOL WD-- I agree... if one more person tells me that everyone pays thousands to have curls I am going to slap them. Why would someone pay to have frusteration in their lives? GR!!.

Get a flat-iron brush and blow it straight dry. Then use the flat iron. Thats what I read in magazines.. I dont actually do those LOl. My hair is naturally stick straight.
