thanks for your time : )Curly hair help?!?
ummm...theres loads you can do, and it helps to put a little syrem in 1st.


heres a site for you to check out!

or..


1. Condition your hair, massaging your scalp to get rid of build-up and excess oil. Shampoo your hair every other day, or best; only two days in a week. (shampooing every day dries out your hair)


2. Comb hair in shower while conditioner is still in. Never towel dry hair. Instead, air dry or diffuse.


3. Pour a dollop of liquid straightening serum and a smaller dollop of glossing serum into your hand and mix them together.


4. Apply the straightening-glossing serum mixture to sections of your hair. Twist each section around your fingers, hold for a few seconds, then release. Do this all over your head.


5. Turn your head down. Dry your hair with a blow-dryer with a diffuser attachment until your hair is completely dry.


6. Spray hair lightly with an anti-frizz spray.


7. Or... You can be sure to condition your hair thoroughly in the shower, combing through it with you fingers (not a comb). When you get out of the shower, put some leave-in conditioner or curl cream in it, followed by gel (don't worry, your hair will absorb a lot and prevent frizz--it won't get crusty unless you overload on the gel). Let air dry.


..and style howerver u choose.Curly hair help?!?
my hair is simular to yours, although I am strictly Caucasian. What i do, is i use fruictis moisterizing shampoo, then moisteriz conditioner, and i blowdry it straight and then straighten it out with the flat iron. also, you can try to put oolive iol in it and leave it in for an hour then wash your hair with my suggested shampoo and conditioner.it makes my hair silky, smooth and slippery. and for caucasian, my hair is soft, but curly, unruley and fuzzy. it is the softest when i do what i suggested. so buy a straightener and a blowdryer, and don't heat style it every day, as it can severy damage your hair and dry it out and make it 3 times worse.
you can do something called twisting, if you go to an african american hairsalon they can do it, and it shouldnt be too expensive





it will look nicest if your hair is very thick, if it isnt, they can always use a bit of hair extension in with it





hope that helps

I would suggest you to put gel in your hair when it's wet and then alittle hair spray and then yes blow dry it and it will look really curly but at the same time you wont have frizzy hair and it will look like you have your hair under control instead of your hair having control over you.
