VERY THICK hair...?

My hair is VERY thick and takes me ages to blow dry or straighten - my arms will start to ache.





I have tried just leaving it to dry mostly and then blow dry/ straighten, but then it becomes fizzy (even with anti- frizz).





Any idea?

we have the same problem.yet i'm still thankful that i am gifted with thick hair,mostly because others have thinner ones due to revamps they do with heir hair.i suggest try to have a shampoo that is designed for thick hair that gives you less worries if you leave it to dry naturally because blowdrying them always makes them more frizzier and dry,dont forget to use conditioner too
Reply:There is shampoo and conditioners out now that relax the hair and help to prevent excess curl, also once a week use a leave in conditioning treatment on all night, this might sound excessive and a bother but it's worth the effort, another old fashioned trick is to wash your hair at night, then wrap is around your head like a turban and pin it it drys straight around your head, my friend used this method 20 years ago before straighteners were around, less damage to the hair as well. try it.
Reply:You should wash your hair with a De-tangler....regardless if your hair is tangled or not...it will make it easy to go through...then you should roller set it while its wet....get under the dryer and let it dry(be sure to use good setting lotion/moose)...you really wont even need the blow dryer!!!
Reply:tRY GETTING A PERM.. IT WILL STRAIGHTEN IT.AND STAY LIKE THAT FOR WHILE SO U WON'T HAVE TO..MAKE SURE SALON DOES IT.
