how to get thin straight hair?

my hair was always thin & straight. but all of the sudden for like the past 2 years its been really thick and wavy. :/ i hate it !

i think my hair got thick back when i started “scrunching” it with Aussie Sprunch. Not from the product, but whenever i would scrunch it, i would get these white flakes in my hair, i thought it was dandruff, and i am really disgusted with dandruff, so i really did not want it, and i bought Head & Shoulders dandruff shampoo, and i used ALOT of it every day that i washed my hair, i would literally shampoo a whole handfull of it two or three times a shower. I’m not sure if this is what caused it, but I saw a commercial about it the other day and it said it gives you thick hair..

but anyways, my hair is so poofy, thick, and wavy and it’s really annoying. :( i am dying for thin, straight hair like this:

just for some examples.

P.S. I have TRIED to straighten my hair, it takes hours, and the second i go outside it starts to get wavy, or the wavy-ness just wont straighten at all.

To get thinner hair you need to go to a salon and ask them to thin your hair out - it can be done really easily by cutting it certain ways. As for straight hair - make sure your using a sleek or moisurizing shampoo - aussies moist is wonderful and smells great. When you get out the shower apply a leave in conditioner or mouse, and blow dry your hair straight with a round barrel brush - use a straighter lightly after just to help with frizz.

thanks, i got my hair thinned about 2 weeks ago, and it straightened easily, (my default picture was taken the day i got it cut) but then like the next day i took a shower, and it was back to being thick and un-straighten-able. /:

im thinking now that it might be my shampoo/conditioner. ill try aussie moist :) thanks !

Answer #3

I understand your issues…but with that said you dont want thin hair…say thank you you have thick hair…people look for ways to make their hair thick because they have hair that is too thin(like me!) mine reaches past my butt & is wavy but very thin & is thinning more…:(

the reason it gets all wavy when you go outside after straightening it is because of the weather…it causes your hair to frizz…(i should know happens to me every time!)
Tip: If it’s gloomy out, damp put or supposed to rain… dont straighten your hair on that day! leave it wavy & try some frizz-ease products at your nearest local cvs/walgreens in the hair section!

Answer #7

You could try getting more layers in your hair to help thin it out, thats what i did:) and then to help straighten it quicker, you could blow dry your hair with the blow dryer angled down and pulling a brush through it at the same time so you dry the it straight. then straighten the layers one at a time. i’ve found it works quite nicely:)
