閳?br>What is the best type of hair straightener ....?
ghd thats it plain simple
a chi it is a really grat hair straighteener but they coat like 200 but they r great. hope i helped.
try the FHI.............itz made by farouk 2
I'm a stylist and I love CHI-- all of them come with warranties and as long as you send it in they'll be covered for a while. Also, don't drop it-- that seems to be how most of my clients break theirs, and as they are ceramic plates they will break. If you're afraid you'll be rough on it then buy a tourmaline straightner, GHD is a good one.
either go with the CHI or this newer one called CROC. they both work really well, so it does not really matter wich one. the CROC gets a little bit hotter than a CHI. hopes this helps a little!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
MAXI GLIDE!
I've only had it for two days, but it's amazing. I read some reviews and people say it lasts while, even after dropping it, which is good news for me, as I've already dropped mine about five times.
CAN'T GO WRONG WITH "CONAIR!!!!!!!!"
Sedu hair straightener: http://www.sedubeauty.com/sedu_flat_iron...
Better than the CHI.
I've read/heard that about the CHI too.
The solia and the Sedu both work very well. I have a Solia, it's perfect for me. It leaves my hair very soft and doesn't make it look damaged at all, there's no snagging and heats up in literaly like two seconds, and it's really easy to use for curling too.

it's cheaper then when i bought it. :p

I would read some of the review on this site if i were you.
they also have a most popular section and they have a list of the top ten straighteners.
hope i could help!

I have a CHI iron that i use to straighten my hair about 3 times a week... I use 2 different heat-protection serums but i dont know if that helps... I can see some split ends but what other damage might I cause my hair if i do this?
wow same with me! i think its fine to do 3 times per week, all i see are split ends so just get a haircut every few months and you should be fine.
your hair will become a little bit weaker from the heat. it sucks out all the moisture from your hair which isnt great for your hair as you know. but a way to help keep it nourished is to put a leave in conditioner in your hair every now %26amp; then. some say once a week. but really you dont HAVe to do it that often. its like giving your hair candy :D
I was starting to fry my hair straightening it a lot... I discovered that my hair looked/felt healthier when I started washing it at night instead of in the morning, and then just combing and using the straightener in the morning.
well u r dring out ur hair. coat ur hair w/olive oil twice a week.
You just need to cut your ends. You might burn your hair, but it depends how you straighten it. It also might get a little nappy. I know girls who do it every single day. It should be fine, so don't worry. Use a certain kind of cream to stop the friz and good luck with that. 閳?br>I straighten my hair a LOT...?
The heat is going to dry your hair out....STOP straightening your hair....DUH....find something else to do with it!!!!
Split ends are the cause of dryness, probably caused by the flat iron you say you use 3 times a week. And damaged hair can also have breakage.
Unfortunately, even though using the heat protection serums may protect your hair some and lessen the amount of damage you're doing, it's impossible to not damage your hair when using heat tools. That's just the way it is. I think it's good you're at least trying to protect your hair some, but I just don't think you can avoid damage completely.
i usually wash...apply treseme' straightening serum...straighten...and drench in hair spray?
(ps-should i buy a chi also?)
Braid hair and forget it.
yea buy a chi it will help that is what i did!
???best answer???
Make sure you get a hairspray that is for humidity. CHI Shine Infusion is a really good product to use it help make it shiny, frizzes and protects your hair from thermal heat from irons and dryers. Here's a tip: wash your hair and fix it at night and the next day believe or not it will help to keep your hair from being frizzy from the humidity. Just a thought, hope it helps.
in somewhere like that it is hard to keep your hair straight. it probably wont stay straight no matter what you do so just keep doing what your doing. on extra humid days just curl it then it will look great.
Have you tried the John Frieda line? It gets humid here too. I had a chi I did not like it as much as my Sassoon from target that cost me $29.00! JF has shampoo and other great stuff. I love a mix of the spray %26amp; loitaion.
First of all, use a shampoo that controls frizziness, like Herbal Essences "None of Your Frizziness" shampoo and conditioner (it works really well). When you straighten your hair, DO NOT drench in hair spray, because it's really bad for your hair (it gets all sticky and it'll make your hair fall out). Spray lightly in different areas (especially top of hair) evenly. I recommend John Frieda Frizz-Ease hairspray or John Frieda Secret Weapon straight hair gel. It makes your hair smooth, shiny, and straight, without making it feel like you have a ton of goop on your head.
Paul Mitchell gloss drops.. its what they use in salons and it keeps my hair nice and shiny and soft and not frizzy. and it doesn't get stiff or hard like it does with hairspray.
im having a hard time btwn buying a chi or the maxiglide. anyone suggest anything else?
Karina, don't buy this one: Teenagers fighting for their lives after "hair tongs" explode in their bedroom: Link:

Get something with a ceramic iron for it doesn't frizz up your hair.
Get a Chi, for I heard those are supposed to be the best hair straighteners. My friend has one. Her hair is naturally almost waist length and wavy. It used to look very frizzy when she straightened. Then she got a Chi and it looks great.
Haha I'm sounding like a commercial, but I'm serious!
ionic, ask your hairdresser which one they use
i have the solia one.. but it's making my hair really dry and damaged. i am looking at the ghd, chi, or sedu... which is best to keep hair looking shiny and straight even if it's humid outside? help!!!!! my stylist used to use a chi, but got something better, but i cant remember what it is. need something good- not a cheap one that will make my hair even more damaged. please help especially if you've tried several- a comparison would be great.. thanks!
ghd definitely, chi leaves too many flyaways, sedu also great, but ghd is better cause you can feel the tips of your hair feel healthy and not choppy. ghd is best for glossy shiny hair, sedu is better for just shiny hair, but it also leaves hair glossy, but not as good as the ghd.
Chi is the best I've used so far..
my hairstylist uses the chi .... i havent gotten one because its like 200 bucks....i would love one!!! thats the best...
chi, but ones with cermic/gold plates work fine too
I let my hair air dry than I spray the Chi Iron Guard, section and flat iron. It probably doesn't help that I live in south florida and its extremely humid right now. My straight hair last 5 min then it starts to frizz out and its ugly. Any tips?
You have 3 problems here. One your hair is frizzy naturally but also it sounds like you are flat ironing your hair slightly wet and one more is you are burning your hair. I am a professional and what it sounds to me is your hair is burning.
If you use any iron on wet hair it can smoke and burn but also if you use it to long in the hair or to hot it will burn. Use professional products for frizzy and to help it hold before you dry your hair. Then when you use your iron try to find a way to see how hot it is. Meaning with a reg iron you put your finger in the middle of the iron where the hair is thickest and when it gets to hot for your finger it means your hair will start to burn. Burning will always frizz your hair. You then will need a reconstructor treatment to help your hair with the damage you have done. There is no way to fix burned hair but you can make it look better as it grows out. First I would do a gentle deep cleansing by mixing professional shampoo, baking soda and water. Should be like a cake mix batter and run through your hair. But a bag over and use a hair blower to heat your head. Then cover with a towel and let it cool. Do not rinse your hair if it is hot it can make hair break off. You will follow this same procedure for the deep conditioning treatment. A treatment is different then just a good conditioner. It is for repairs not just moisture. I hope this helps, there are great professional products out there for fizzy hair.
Oh one more thing, you can put a defuser on your hair blower that will also help with frizzy hair. And blow dry a warm to cool not hot.
when you use a flat iorn you have to use some typ of surum for your hair you run it thruogh your hair when its damp then blow dry then flat iorn anything anti-frizz since you say that is your prob they have a large selection at any drug store
Use a frizz-ease product, like John Frieda Frizz-Ease. A shine spray would be another possibility - it helps tame frizz %26amp; flyaways.
Try to find a product to use pre-flat ironing that will protect your hair against the heat. Then, make sure your flat iron has "ions" in it, which help seal broken/split ends, and result in more flat, shiny, and smooth hair. There are also many products you can use after you straighten your hair, such as Bed Head products, which work very well.
IF IT IS FRIZZY AFTER YOU STRAIGHTEN THEN YOU MUST BLOCK THE HUMIDITY, UNFORTUNATELY THE ONLY WAY TO DO THIS IS .... MORE PRODUCT.... TRY THE SERUM BEFORE YOU STRAIGHTEN AND SOME KIND OF SPRAY AS SOON AS YOU DO A FEW STRANDS.. THAT SHOULD DO IT..
when u ur hair ,u should use olive oil spray because i have hair like that and it works then, u braid it or roll it in a bun and cover it with cloth and go to sleep with it, in the morning u will have great straight hair
use the spray after u straighten ur hair
Use a heat tamer, treseeme has some. Then after you straightened your hair, apply a frizz ease treseemme secret weapon works for me.
what you might want to do is go to a salon and get your tips trimed. make sure that when you flat iron your hair, make sure you iron small amounts of hair at a time. also make sure that you use something good to protect your hair from the heat. i live in florida and know what you're going through cause i've gone through it. try using frizz eaze.
when i was in south florida (on holiday, you are so lucky to live there and not in rainy london, uk!) i gave up on straight hair for the daytime and just put a dab of coconut oil in my hair. this, plus the humidity, produced really nice defined curls.
i think air drying is good but you probably still need to blowdry when its 95% dry to take control of it, but just make the room as cool as possible while you do. the texture of my hair wouldn't allow me to straighten it with irons immediately so that could be the problem. unless you have those wet2straight irons?
the big epiphany for me in achieving straght hair was understanding the fact that it was my hair's texture that needed to change, not the fact that it was naturally wavy. if it feels clean and silky it will stay straight. if it feels thick and/or moist, but looks straight, it won't. blowdrying with the right products can dramatically alter the texture of your hair - paul mitchell seal and shine is good, and try phytologie, bumble and bumble or frederic fekkai products.
yea use tresemme heat tamer i use it and i loe it but it doent make my hair to shiny and i havr flyaway too and i want ot ge the anti smooth from tresemme too
Paul Mitchell Gloss Drops. Great product!
