Curly hair tips??

Ok i have golden brownish/blondeish hair, it is also thick and curly medium length, how do you get it to be shiny and some soft curls, and frizz free? i have tried a lot of frizz free shampoo but it doesn't get it shiny and it feels dull to me. Help me and share some hair tips you do to help your curly hair be healthy and shiny with no frizz.

Big Silky Sexy Hair products are the best for any type of hair but most of all for curly. You will also need to use a leavein conditioner or a shine serum and a curl enhancer, my fave is Noodle Head at Sally's Beauty Supply.

I asked the same question on Yahoo answers..check out the answers people gave me..theyre really helpful!

I have naturally straight hair, so its really hard to curl my hair..and even if it does curl..to KEEP it curled. I bought the Chi ceramic hair iron 3/4 inches..and it just looks so beautiful the curls look so shiny. Before that i was trying a metal one that costs like 10 dollars...it was a burning disaster. Invest money on a good iron. You coudl actually smell my hair burning it see it on the metal. So anyways...if you cant buy the Chi which is like $90 you can buy these pink spongey rollers..section your hair into one inch sections and put a little water and gel and twist the strand of one inch...and start rolling it up from the bottom up. This works so well..although it is time consuming. when you are done your scalp should be full of rollers. If you stop half way..it will be unnatractive roll all the way up to your scalp. Dont forget to twist the hair before that though..the twist is what gives it spiral.



About the frizz...John Freida products!!! all the way from his shampoos...to Serums...use them



Curly hair tips??

Frizz-free shampoos have never done anything for my hair, personally. I used to use a lot of mousse...if you don't put so much, it'll just be frizzy and poofy, you know? I have the exact same problem. Paul Mitchell Super Sculpt. Get it. Use it. love it. I promise. It is not quite as thick as a gel, and it will not leave flakes in your hair like mousse will if you use too much (been there, done that). Right after you get out of the shower (your hair needs to still be a little drippy for the best results), towel-dry but not excessively. Depending on the length of your hair, use a little more than a quarter-size liquidy blob of this stuff. Turn your head upside-down, spread the liquid on both of your palms evenly, and run your hands and fingers through your hair (kind of combing it as you go--the choice is yours whether to comb or not, but NEVER brush curly hair). Once the liquid is spread pretty evenly throughout your hair, flip back right-side up and tilt your head to both sides, scrunching each time. After that, put some kind of curl spray on it to hold its place (I personally use L'oreal Pumping Curls spray). Sit down somewhere that your head can be straight up (make sure the curls are where you want them to fall) and let your hair dry naturally (unless your hair is not too thick and you don't have a poof problem, in which case blow-drying is ok, but don't turn upside-down to blow-dry). When your hair is completely dry (or almost completely), it will be pretty crunchy. Now all you need to do is tilt your head to either side again (and, if necessary, upside-down once more) and scrunch a few more times. The crunchy-ness will go away, leaving your curls in place but not hard.



Make sure you do not keep scrunching too often during the day (a few times is normal), or your curls will just become frizzy.



Also, Super Sculpt is actually recharged if it gets wet--so if it rains, no worries! Your curls may even look better than the first time! Paul Mitchell's a genius, I sware!



Other products I have found in that vast market (which is full of mostly crap) that actually have worked for my hair:



*John Frieda-nothing in his line works for my curls except the "Down Play" volume reducer liquid



*Biolage Curl Defining Creme (by Matrix)--best to use when your hair is almost dry



Good luck, as I know it's hard for us curly girls!

What curly-haired person doesn't have this question?!



I solved the problem in California, but just moved to NY ... where the humidity is so bad that it seems to defeat almost all hair products.



Here's what I do.



1) Regular shampoo. I've never found a frizz-free shampoo that works.



2) Towel dry hair, getting all moisture out, IMMEDIATELY after getting out of the shower.



3) Leave-in conditioner IMMEDIATELY after toweling. I like the Paul Mitchell leave-in. I put a quarter-sized amount in my palm and then make sure to run it through all of my hair. I use my fingers rather than a comb. The comb straightens and stretches the hair, causing frizz. With fingers, you can separate the hair a little. Shake the hair while you run your fingers through. That puts some of the natural curl in.



3) Texture Line Control Gel IMMEDIATELY after the leave-in. Frizz starts the instant the hair starts drying. That's why the product needs to get in there so quickly!!



4) Dump my head over and scrunch with my fingers, making sure that the product is getting full coverage.



5) Air dry!! If you don't have time to wait for the air dry (yes, it can be hours) ... then use a professional quality hair dryer with diffuser, on medium or low heat. Low is best to set the style.



If you do any of the above in a place with any humidity, it probably won't work! You need to be in a humidity-free zone, temperature controlled -- and your hair needs to be COMPLETELY dry before going out.



And after all that's done ... If you're anything like me ... If it's a hot summer day ... 90% of the time, you'll STILL end up looking like Diana Ross. But 10% of the time, you'll have really great hair days. And if there's low humidity, it works every time.



It's taken me years and too many products to count to work this approach out.
