MOD MOD MOD!! Ok my hair is SUPER fine. So when I curl my hair it does NOT stay curled for like 10 - 15 min.! I even bought a hair spray that is supposed to hold your hair based on wht u want when u curl ur hair. And guess wht! It still doesnt work! Frown plz help!

 

Hey girly, I would talk to a hair stylist. They will probably have the best suggestions for your hair. My roommate has thin hair too, and when she curls her hair she never uses a curling iron, she puts hot rollers into her hair, so try that. Hope this helps! Smile Smile

My hair used to be naturally curly, but I think now that I have been straightening it more regularly, it's forcing my hair straight, even when I let it air dry. Frown
Is there any products or things I can do or use to restore my natural wave\\curl? :\

MOD,
My hair used to be very curly! But my hair has grown sososo much that the volume is weighing down the curls and making it straight. I want my curls back I've tried curling it but it never seems to work is there another solution?




Hey girlie. Try using products like mousse and hairspray to help with the curls.

Hey mod whenever I take. Shower and get out my hair has a weird texture. When I go to blow dry it the top by the roots gets all greasy and gross. I've tried not drying it but then it smells weird. What should I do?!?

 

 

Hey chica! I'd try a volumizing shampoo and conditioner. And, make sure that you're not using too much conditioner ... that can weigh your hair down and make it look greasier Smile

mod mod!
i want pretty and big curls (like miley cyrus'). i don't want to curl my hair and putting it in rollers is too hard. i've tried to put it in a bun after a shower, but it takes a long time to dry. how do i get curls that are easy and fast.




Hey girl,

Unfortunately, aside from braids and buns after a shower, your only options are a curling iron or rollers. Using them once in a while won't hurt your hair - just be sure to use a conditioner in the shower and practice to do it right!

Hi Chica,

Hair dying can be tricky. You can buy semi-permanent hair dye that will fade out, but sometimes those will still leave color in. But your mom is right, it usually has to grow out, before the color is completely gone. I have never dyed by hair before with an at-home kit, so I don't have too much experience with this or advice. I would also talk to your hairdresser to see if he or she has any recommendations for semi-permanent hair dye. Good Luck!

I have light brown hair and I have never dyed it before, but I really want to turn the under color (or just a streak or something!) purple. Me and my sister went to the neareset drug store and found some purple semi-permanent hair dye from a brand called Splat.
When I asked my mom if I could dye my hair, she said no because it would never fade out and I would have to grow it all out before it disappears. I don't want that to happen, I wanted it to eventually just fade out (like after a month or two!).
Is that true? And do you know of any companys that sell purple hair dye that just fade out like how I want? Thanks SO much!

Well that cannot be the only solution! Have you ried flat ironing it? If you get a good, may be a bit pricey, flat iron, you can't get burnt inless you touch the hot parts in between. Hope this helps!
