How can I straighten very curly hair using the following items:?

I have very curly hair, and need to straighten it. However, I barely have any money, and would only be able to do it with the following items:





*Hair Straighteners


*Moisturiser


*Mousse


*Hair spray





Is this possible and, if so, how can it be done?How can I straighten very curly hair using the following items:?
Ok... Straightening very curly hair actually doesn't require much money at all, just a lot of patience ! Use a hair strightener ( a flat iron). Get you hair completly dry, either with a blow dryer by allowing it to air dry, then use rubber bands to put you hair up into seven or eight little pigtails all over your head, this seperates your hair. Take out a pig tail at a time and use the iron to straighten each piece...the end result is straight hair. My hair is very curly and this takes me about an hour... I usually wear it straight for two or three days.. before I wash it.How can I straighten very curly hair using the following items:?
You need to apply the mousse then scrape back the hair into a bun or similar until it is dry (unless you have a hairdryer, which it doesn't sound like you have). Then use the moisturiser and hair straighteners - small sections at a time then use the hairspray.
you dont need all that just put some gel in your hair while its wet, then you need a flat iron that gets hot like a chi or helen of troy ( which is cheaper than a chi)
You should towel-dry your hair until it is about 80% dry. Then use a hair straightener like Bumble %26amp; Bumble Straight (best product for straightening by far) and work that through your hair. Then blowdry your hair in small sections until it is all dry. After that, if you have a flat iron, use that on your hair in small sections. Go over hair with an extremely small amount of lotion/moisture-lock product.
wash your hair and when you are about to dry it or even if you dont ha;ve an hair dryer put some moisturiser on the end of your hair and cover the rest in mousse then let hair dry and straighten it by seperating the hair and doing it in layers to get your hair even starigheter as you straighten it use a comb at the same time and then to finish add your hair spray thats wot i do and my hair is naturally curly just dont do it all the time as your hair will become damaged. hope this helped
I think you can dispense with those items and use only 2 items...





* Your finger


* an electrical socket
you need either hair dryer or flat iron with those products.
I would suggest a hair straightening serum/balm/cream of some sourt, a round brush, a little mousse and a loooot of patience if you have a blowdryer. You could get all of this for around $10 (assuming you have a blowdryer)


Otherwise that there are alternatives such as blowdrying roundbrushes which will do the trick. They run about $20. Or you can get a straightener, get ceramic if you care for your hair. That'll run you about $30.


You can also get a regular for around $15. Just get a protective spray for your hair.


I'm estimating this all off of Wal Marts prices too.
All you need is the straighteners and maybe the hairspray





Brush your hair through to make sure there are no knots, then use a wide toothed comb and comb a section of hair as you pull the comb through run the straighteners behind, down the hair from root to tip. Do this with all your hair.





If you want you could then spray some hairspay onto a paddle shaped hairbrush and brush through the hair - this will get rid of any remaining frizz or fly-away bits and keep it under control for longer.





It isn't difficult but may take practice - good luck!
ok u only need the hair straightener DO NOT USE THE MOUSSE and use the hair spray AFTER u use the straightener
I would blow dry it, in sections, with a round soft bristled brush, and use the flat iron to touch it up. Do not use the flat iron unless your hair is completely dry, or it will literally boil the water in your hair. Never keep the flat iron in one spot, glide it over each strand. Use the hairspray to set it. Also helps to rub a little moisturizer in your palms, and then run your finger thru, especially at the ends.
Blowdry it as straight as you can first using straightening mousse or serum, doesn't matter if it goes big. Then make it slightly greasy with some more product and in small sections use your straightners once you have gone over the whole thing lot go over it again but in larger sections and then apply a small amount of hair spray it'll take time but it will work but only with ghd cos theyr'e the best for any hair
I have super curly hair as well. The way I get it straight is blow dry it about 2/3 so it's just slightly damp, then separate it into sections (top of the head down),,,I typically do 3 sections but it depends on your hair's thickness. Go ahead and have your flat iron/hair straightener heated (get a ceramic one, they are better for your hair's condition and work better than metal ones...you can get one from Walmart for less than $20) Then take a big round brush (at least a 2.5 inch one)...conair has ceramic brushes that I like because ceramic heats well and helps to straighten hair better with less damage (got it from Sally's Beauty Supply)...and dry your hair the rest of the way by starting at the roots with the brush and pulling out to the ends, section by section, underside of your hair to the outerside. After each section, flat iron that section. Also, be sure to brush each section before you flat iron it...knots and flat irons are not friends. This always gets my hair super straight unless of course it's rainy, in which case, I'd suggest to just wear your hair curly.





I hate using products and will only occassionally spray a little hair spray on a brush then run it through my hair just to help set it.





Good luck.
My hair is really really curly, it is defiantly possible to do it with straighteners as that is what i do.


Do it after you have washed your hair, and i would suggest straightening your hair the night before the day you go out as it can be quite frizzy when first done.


Spray your hair with a protective spray to protect your hair from the heat, then just section the hair out and straighten with the irons. When you have finished you can spray your hair with a gloss or hair spray to keep it in place.


Hope this hepls!
