I have EXTREMELY thick hair; what is the best way to curl my hair?

I really would like BARREL curls, large, bouncy curls , instead of tight small almost cork screw curls.

I have a spiral hair curler, but that produces tight curls.

My hair is four inches from my butt, so it's rather long and it's extremely thick and heavy. But it holds curls well.

Any suggestions?

I have EXTREMELY thick hair; what is the best way to curl my hair?

if you have extremely thick hair the best thing you can do to get your hair like that is follow these steps-

*if your hair is frizzy get curl defining gel and scrunch it.

or if your hair is just thick......

*skip a shower for a day so that the grease in your hair will hold the curl.

*take little thin pieces and count to about 25 and then let the curler go but make sure you wet your hair first and put lots of gel in it to let it dry.

thats should do it:)

the only thing you can do to get the curls you want is sleep in rollers or after you get out of the shower put your hair in rollers and dry your hair with them still in your hair.

i have the same issue. Before you go to sleep the night before you straighten in, roll your hair around in the bun and put a scrunchi around the whole thing so that it wont crimp anywhere and it will dry smooth automatically, it help sraighten the hair because it is smoother and it flattens it out a bit

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

I have black and thick hair,and it can be annoying at times. Is having that kind of hair a good or bad thing?

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

Thick hair can be good. However if you want to get it thinned out a bit, find someone who cuts hair with a straight edge razor. The razor is able to really get in there and make your hair seem lighter. Call around to salons in your area, I'm sure you'll find someone who does razor cuts... just make sure you specify straight edge razors...

You are lucky my hair is kinda thin and I wish I had thick hair. Thick long hair is beautiful

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

It's a good thing because you can do more with it than thin hair

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

If you get the right kind of cut and style, it is fantastic. If your hair is long, get it cut in lengths to thin it out around the ends. You'll still have a lot of body, but just the right amount.

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

If its excessive I suppose its a bad thing, but by and large its seen as a good thing. Think about it, you never see hair products advertising that they'll make your hair thinner, yes? Hair thickening sprays, pomades, etc are very popular, so my answer would be yes, it's a good thing.

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

I think thick hair is a good thing. It always looks fuller and healthier, but sometimes it will not style as easily.

A layered cut could possibly take some of your bulk out, if it's a concern.

Best of luck!

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

I also have thick hair, but I definitely think it looks better as opposed to thin hair. You could always have your hair thinned if the thickness bothers you.

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

Since most people with thin hair seem to complain and the fact that so many products are made to stop thinning hair, it would seem we have the advantage--I have been told every single time I have sat in a barber's chair "wow, you have the thickest hair".

I am not so sure what is so great about it. I would think it is a stylists dream to work with such hair but dozens of different stylists and not one has known what to do with it. I have shaved it all off military style for a decade, so my verdict is: BAD THING.

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

nope. take this from an expert, i have really really think brunnette hair. it takes me more than an hour to wash my hair and more than hour to dry it. but having thin hair isnt fun, no offense. my friend is a blonde thin hair and she cant get it curl, permed, or straighned cause its so thin that its weak. trust me, having thick hair is a blessing.

Is having thick hair a bad thing?

well, having thick hair can be regarded as a nice thing only if u manage them well.having a nice hair style according to hair type %26amp; ur face cut can optimise ur benefit of having thick hair.otherwise it could be vice versa.

i used to hate it but looking at everyone elses with their thin, greasey hair in a matter of hours hair, i have never felt more happy! (sorry if you have this horrid hair but i have to be honest, what more can you do other than stick it in a pony?)

you could get it thinned or cut in layers if you are fed up with it mind.

just remember how hair is just an accesory.

I have thick wavy to curly hair and I used to hate it....?

and the key word is Used to hate it... I started reading up online about S.L.S in shampoo's and the no-poo to this and that about shampoo's... I have always hated my hair, I felt like a porn star... so much body and wave.. felt like my head was 3 ft across..lol

For everyone who has similar problems.. with the frizzy course waves and curls, the one where you hate to touch your hair because it feels like hay.. 2 months ago, I threw away all my shampoos and conditoners... I now use a shampoo bar that is all natural to clean my hair and believe it or not a Vinegar rinse (1*3 vinegar to water dilute) to Condition my hair...

I also threw away my hair brush and picked up a wide tooth comb and my hair is now beautiful, its shiney (thanks to the vinegar) and you wouldn't classify it as course either, Its a pleasure to touch.. I even had a compliment the other day on how nice and thick my hair was..

Anyways give this a shot and stay true to it for one or two months for the results.

I have thick wavy to curly hair and I used to hate it....?

u effing lier, i tried that, and my hiar beacame like a troll doll, people dont beiive ppl on here do tricks, its never true!! They only want to make u misrable,,,,Fook U!!!

I have thick wavy to curly hair and I used to hate it....?

you used to brush it?? brush curley hair has always been a no-no no wonder it was out of control

and i think diluted vinegar is a good substitute for shampoo because it's less as harsh but it certainly doesn't make your hair better than it was before you washed it

I have thick wavy to curly hair and I used to hate it....?

that's not a question. and if vinegar was good for hair they'd use it in a salon.

Thick, wavy hair, help!?

i have thick, wavy/frizzy/poofy hair, and a lot of it!!

i need a haircut that:

-is easy to take care of (i have to get up at 5:30 am, have 15 minutes to get ready and out the door, no time to waste on styling hair)

-doesn't involve mousse, gels, etc., (because of my skin i can't put any products in my hair)

-is short (not pixie cut, but something like a bob)

i know this is probably a lot to ask, but any pictures/advice would be VERY appreciated!

PS-don't worry about my face shape/hair color. i've been told my face can pull off a great deal of cuts, and i change my hair color a lot.

Thick hair on body?

My daughter id 5 yrs old and she is very hairy, she has got thick hair specially on arms, legs, and back. I am quite worried for her, please advise some home remedy for her.

Thick hair on body?

She is 5 years old!!! I think the last thing you should be doing is seeking hair removal ideas off the internet for a child! Seek advice from her pedi before you listen to any of the dummies suggesting waxing! The only thing you will do is permanantly traumatize her if you do that.

Thick hair on body?

wax...

Thick hair on body?

How old is she?

Thick hair on body?

wax or laser hair removal

Thick hair on body?

its problaby nothing

Thick hair on body?

Is she named Chewbacca? Sounds like you might have to take her to a dermatologist, in my opinion. They might suggest lasering it off, although I'd sure hate to go to that extreme for a 5 year old (although it does NOT hurt).

Thick hair on body?

Good God. You don't wax a five year old! (Not that I thought you would, that was directed at the other person!) I really don't know if there IS anything you can do for her at that age. Most things that come to mind are either painful or stinky, neither of which a five year old is likely to tolerate.

Thick hair on body?

she is too young to wax or shave.Once you shave,you will have to do it more often.She's just fine ,just wait til she's a little older.Im 16 and im hairy but i dont shave my arms.Noone really cares.

Thick hair on body?

Does the hair bother her? If it doesn't, then I wouldn't take action quite yet... that would be bringing something to her attention that might not bother her for many years otherwise. But, I would reccomend maybe getting her to a dermotologist or something, just to gather up as much info as you can when the time to do something comes.

Curly thick red hair, how do i keep the frizz down?

I have curly THICK THICK THICK red hair. When i scrunch my hair, i'm not able to get the back to well and it becomes this huge poof and frizz, any ideas on how i can spread the gel evenly without making my hair super hard? I use LA looks. Also, how can i get my hair to stay the way it looks when it's wet, when it dries it gets all poofy any ideas?

Curly thick red hair, how do i keep the frizz down?

Pink, make sure you have a really good cut for your hair type. Trust me, an expert cut is key to managing and living happily with impossibly curly/frizzy hair. Have you discovered the diffuser attachment to your blow dryer? After using a blow dryer for decades (to try to straighten my hair), I experimented with that diffuser thang after getting a cut that enhances my curls (no more fighting my natural waves; it's soooo liberating to embrace my natural curls). It is great! And be sure to use a cool setting and not the hottest one. Also, I've discovered that if I wash my hair in the evening and sleep on it once it's dried naturally (that is, not necessarily blow-drying it, though you could, but don't go to sleep with wet hair), when I awaken, all I need do is run my fingers or a very wide-tooth comb through, and I'm good to go. (Revlon makes a dandy wide-tooth comb; the packaging boasts it's ideal for layered cuts, and it costs under $3.00.)

Hope this helps.

John Fredia's (Sp?) Frizz Ease Products , Worth the money you will spend on them.

Curly thick red hair, how do i keep the frizz down?

frizze ease or lots if mousse to style and do a little lift make sure to keep hair short.

Curly thick red hair, how do i keep the frizz down?

What I would do if I were you is take a little aloe vera gel - the natural kind, not dyed green as I'm not sure what that would do to hair. As your hair is drying and starts to poof, smooth a tiny bit of aloe over your hair. You can redo if it starts to frizz again.

You can also use some watered down aloe in a spray bottle on dry hair to reduce frizz, and on braids to keep them neat. I prefer it over most styling products because it really works on frizz and flyaways without making your hair feel weighed down with a bunch of product.

Curly thick red hair, how do i keep the frizz down?

I have very thick, thick, thick hair myself. I use a flat iron, but that's not your look. I also recommend an anti-frizz serum. I use the one by Pantene. My hair is about 3 inches below my shoulders and I use a enough to equal a 50 cent piece. I rub my hands together and spread it all through my hair and style from there. It works great.
