How do I keep my hair straight without using a flat iron?

Question

my hair's just wavy. I've been using a flat iron for about two years and it caused serious damage to my hair. i want to stay away from a flat iron until my hair repair itself. I don't need it to be straight straight just as loong as it doesn't look like bed hair.

replies are greatly appreciated :)

if u flatiron, using a heat protector spray is the best

its a spray u spray on the sections u want to flatiron and it greatly reduces damage

omg i have the exact same problem, you should actually buy a set of curl hair products and use rollers so your not using and heat on your hair to get a styled look! then when your hair is healthy again you can straighten it but not as often!! good luck XP

Answer 3

You could use a hair straightening cream or serum while your hair is wet, and then blow dry it.

Answer 4

put some moose in it or that beach spray stuff and enhance your waves until your damage is better.... or if you have to have it straight just get it professionally done with chemicals also get some good conditioner and one of those leave in ones you do once a week

Answer 5

you could get it permently straightened with like chemicals and stuff, but i know a girl who did and her hair was super-dry.  so idk, depends on like what the texture of your hair is, if you should or not.

Depends, on how often you wash your hair..

I'd say that you could straighten it, and then keep it straight for a week, without straightening it, again.



You could use a hair dryer, with a rounded brush, with might cause less damage.

Or you could embrace your wavy hair, by using a product that increases/emphazies your natural wave.( Probably, the less damaging)
