No, not tips on how to turn straight, silly moo!

I've been straightening my hair the same way for 2 years now, and I'm sick of it, it takes TOO LONG. lol. Normally what I do is just attack my hair with the straighteners until it looks okay :L Does anyone have any tips or guidelines, cuz I'm at tether's end here?

Afterwards, with a thin comb, brush through it all. Then kind of push it up a little bit so it does not look flat.

I fail at it, I constantly burn by scalp haha. I find it annoying how easily women can do it while I end up with halfstraight hair and scald marks on me head. =\

So basically, I can't help you, meaning there was no point in me replying to this thread LOL

[Noel]

LOL.
Don't worry, anything will help me now.
I used to burn myself too, but now I just straighten outwards to avoid my ears, which I suppose doesn't make my hair look too good :L

I dunno how I do it lol. Perhaps use products after? Wax/Spray so it adds volume?

LOL I assure you, I use LOTS of hairspray.
Hmm...maybe it's just my hair.
It needs cut like. All the straightening has gave it split ends..bless..

My hair is naturally poker straight. If i use straighteners it just kinks it really weirdly.

MAMAMAMA

Umm... I gave up making mine poker straight... I just run the straighteners through my fringe and then through the top layer...

How long do you leave them switched on for before you use them? I leave mine on for like 10 mins +.. and then it does it straight away!

10mins? Haha GHDs take like 30 secs, and they beep when they're hot enough.

Haha - I don't have GHD's, but they are really good.. they take about 30 seconds for the light to change but I don't believe it!

In the morning I get up, then put my straighteners on.. then I go in the bathroom, come back, get dressed etc, then do my hair haha!

And backcomb for volume

[Lauren]

It depends what type of hair you have. If it's naturally thin-ish, then don't listen to me. If it's quite thick, frizzy, and sometimes uncontrollable, look into getting this:



When I first dry my hair, it's like an afro, but when I put this on before I straighten it - it goes glossy and shiny, but it doesn't feel like there's any product in your hair at all.

[Annie]

Defo backcomb at back for volume and then straighten so its still all messy yet straight looking and then just keep trying with it.
