How can I get my hair to grow again?

I have had braids/cornrows for 10 years now and in the last 2 years my hair has not grown at all. It actually has gotten shorter. I'm an african american male with thick, borderline curly hair...any idea how to get it to grow again? Thanks for any help.



How can I get my hair to grow again?

get it out of Cornrolls,



My friend had the same issue



it grew again after 10 years



How can I get my hair to grow again?

wow, i've never heard of that. i've heard of cremes people put on their head to get hair to grow



How can I get my hair to grow again?

first i would suggest that you go with the low waves that is so much sexier.



How can I get my hair to grow again?

This depends. How long are you leaving your hair braided at a time? Braids, especially tight ones, can break off the hair. So, it's not that your hair isn't growing... it's just that as your hair is growing, the ends are breaking. Your ends are probaly splitting all the way up to the root. Get your ends clipped! And let your hair get a break from those braids. It sounds like you have pretty hair. There's no need to keep it braided up all the time.



How can I get my hair to grow again?

take vitamins for hair skin and nails or multis containing pantonin, biotin and insositol. keep your scalp soft and free from flakes that trap hair underneath from coming in brush scalp every day not too rough you'll get scabs



How can I get my hair to grow again?

From what I heard, keeping hair braided for that length of time will definitely make you fall out. No one should have braids in there hair that long. What you need to do is keep your hair out of braids for a while. Also, take biotin, it will help strengthen your roots again.



Goodluck



How can I get my hair to grow again?

I would use Dr.Miracles Shampoo and DooGro after products. That defintly helped my hair grow.

Marissa coopers hair!?

i absolutely LOVED marissa cooper's hair in the third season of the oc episodes 1 and 2



http://i30.tinypic.com/5yalia.jpg



thats her hair



and i was wondering if anyone had any idea of how to acheive that braid behind your ear thing



Marissa coopers hair!?

well u would begin with the bottom side corner of the back of ur hair and braid it than turn it around



Marissa coopers hair!?

oh yaaa i remember that! basically you take a chunk of hair from the front of your face and make a half pony tail pulling up the hair that belongs in a half ponytail except for the chunk. and then you just french braid the chunk leading it under your ear, and then take out the half ponytail!

Hair question concerning scalp...?

ok so i got a perm and i think it sat in 2 long...but i got it braided and kept it up for 2 weeks well anyways i jus washed my hair and when i combed it out i got pieces of my scalp in the comb!!! GROSS!! why did this happen? and how can i make it stop?!?



Hair question concerning scalp...?

that is where u burned you scalp



Hair question concerning scalp...?

You scalp must have been burnt



Hair question concerning scalp...?

Well prob. the matter is when you get a perm that almost burns your scalp and thats why you ushaly get dandruff. Then If im getting this straight you got braded. Whitch can lead to brakedge. Don't get brades and perms to often you can loose all your hair. Becareful. Hoped I helped.



Hair question concerning scalp...?

over-permed... and you dont have to braid your hair for like 2 wks coz chances are, your hair might get brittle and will lose the shine in your hair...once the hair is dry and tangled, when you comb, you can see lose hair in your comb or brush, what you should do, dont tie nor braid your hair for couple of days and use conditioner daily, i recommend pantene conditioner...



Hair question concerning scalp...?

sounds like you got sensitive scalp baby grl you left it in to long you need to go to stylist

What are some good ways to curl hair?

My hair is very thin and it seems everything i do won't make my hair curl the only think that works is leting it dry in a braid but i wanna have the beach crls like big and loose what are some ways plz help!



What are some good ways to curl hair?

the best way is to get a thin curling iron instead of a thick one.the thin iron will make ur curls tight and because ur hair is thin the will rapidly get loose and look like beach curls and last longer.if u use a thick one it makes them loose to start with so ur hair ends up straight in a matter of minutes



good luck



What are some good ways to curl hair?

let it dry and buy a big hair curlr and then curl it that should work



What are some good ways to curl hair?

curling iron, curling spray..(u can find specific brand in the cosmogirl mag.), rollers,etc.



What are some good ways to curl hair?

What I do, is after I wash it, I let it dry naturally for about an hour or so. Then, I blow dry it until my hair is slightly damp. Then I put my hair up in a bun, and let it dry naturally. When it's finished drying, I take the bun out, and I spray my hair with hair spray. My hair is usually very beachy looking after I do this.

Prom Hair and Make-Up Ideas!?

Ok so here is the basic idea of what my dress looks like...color wise. Unlike this one it is halter and has a braid under the bust with the two colors and silver.

Prom Hair and Make-Up Ideas!?

here's my advice don't make your prom look crazy and overdramatic (as if you are in some pagent). DON'T go for the ugly hooker makeup and DON'T go for thsoe fugly poofy ball gowns (how are you supposed dance in those anyway?)

Hair Disaster?

I had washed my braids last night and when I got of the shower they started to come out. Mom trie dto rebraid them but she couldn't so I had to take them out. I cried and cried and I felt so bad because I wasted money. The hair cost $135 which is half of my paycheck and I just go tit done a week ago. I hate myself for this because I have nothing to do to my hair and wasted money that I really needed. Has anyone had a hair disater like this?



Hair Disaster?

I had something similar with interlock braids. My stylist had no problem redoing the hair. Did you call your stylist and insist on a re-do? You should be able to wash your braids without them falling out. Try contacting your stylist and "calmly" explaining the situation, and I'm sure she/he will help you out. Good luck.



Hair Disaster?

That is terrible! Sorry to hear that. I would (of course) never use her again and absolutely never recommend her if she did a shoddy job that could not be washed! Take care. Report It



Hair Disaster?

yup, i wasted lik 150$ for my hair..colour and its gone already %26gt;%26lt; and i had it since last week %26gt;%26lt;! hmm.. you should go bak to the place yu got it and tell them that they didnt braid it right or soemthing. and probably they can re do it for free.. or lower than 100$



Hair Disaster?

go back to the Solon it should have lasted longer then that



Hair Disaster?

I have, but not nearly that bad... I had my hair cut and done with my cousin and she gave us a 10$ discount and I went to gymnastics aften that, and it fell ALLLLLLLLL out! It really SUCKED



Hair Disaster?

i sure did i went on a trip to a huge city and i got a hair style that was worth $65 and i went home that night and when i was driving my drink spilled everywhere and my pants and shirt got wet and when i got home i took a quick shower and then i looked in the mirror and realized my hairstyle was gone.



Hair Disaster?

OMG%26gt;%26gt;yep i had that in Primary School...welll it was a big style in Primary School to come 2 school with your hair all braided up and curled %26amp; i really wanted my mom to do it...first she rejected cos my hair tends to get all knotted up and then after persuadin her which took time she did it and when it was finished i looked great. i went to school the next day and everyone complimented my hair and that i looked gorgeous of course i felt great.some even made A clique %26amp; i was invited in :) we had to put our hair in that style every friday or else ure OUT.well the next friday i had to loose it to wash it and i asked mom to put the same exact style again in my hair as she did the last monday but when she started combin my hair my hair was all knotted up and mom said that she cant do anything but put it in a ponytail and send me off to school..i cried and cried which was bad cos i made mom angry frustratin her and it ended up being a bad day....not only a bad hair day!



Hair Disaster?

Go back to the salon. I would tell them to fix it or I will tell all of my friends and family not to go there.



Hair Disaster?

Well it isn't usually a good idea to wash braids except for micros or something I don't know what kind of hair you have but if you have to wash your hair every day or every other day it will be kinda hard to keep braids anyway. Maybe next time you should ask your stylist before you do anything to your fresh new do.



Hair Disaster?

You...".wasted money that' you 'really needed"? Hmmm. Maybe next time you'll think first.



Hair Disaster?

you be good to your self,, you just move on and try not think about it . you will be OK ,



Hair Disaster?

wow....sorry, this advice may be too late, but you should have taken pictures and then go back to the salon where they did the work, show them what happened, untouched, and make them fix it for no, or little charge.



If I got my tire fixed, then a week later it fell off, Id take it back to the mechanic who fixed it and demand no charge to fix it.



Sorry, good luck.

Hair breakage???

Okay, I have been using a perm for my for a long time. But since the beginning of this school year...my hair has been breaking off in the back-middle of my head. Now, I'm willing to cut my hair to make my hair even...I really don't mind that. But my parents and friends don't want me too...they rather see me get micro-braids (which I would also do) I really don't know what to do...my parents nd friends are aggrivating me!!! Anyone who is good at doing hairstyles for African Americans...PLZ Help Me!!!!



Hair breakage???

If your hair is breaking off or shedding then you need to wear a scarf/bandana/hair wrap whenever you lay down. Silk scarfs or pillow cases are the best. If you're just laying down for a quick nap or laying down watching tv always make sure you have your hair covered!



Shedding or breakage is usually a sign of stress or bad hair management so make sure you take care of your hair.



Try getting a sew-in weave or braids because they reduce the chance of you putting heat on your hair and just messing with your hair period. The less you do with your hair, in the sense that if its braided there's less that you can do with it, the better off it will be.



Hair breakage???

hello,



getting braids may further break your hair off depending on how tight the braids are..



i saw cut your hair and grow it out naturally. don't oil scalp because it will clog your pores. Wear a SATIN CAP, "Magic Satin" is really good and you can buy it at Wal-Mart. It is 2-4 dollars.



Before I started wearing a satin cap one side of my head had thick, full hair and the other side did not because hte other side would break off (i think it was because i slept on that sotten and my pillow kept breaking my hair because it's cotten, sucking the little oil I have out of my hair and thus breaking).



Within several months my hair grew in and STAYED on that side.



So wear a satin cap at night, keep oil but not too much in your hair... try to get a natural/herbal oil, not one that is petroleum based.



Relaxing your hair is bad for your hair, wear it natural.



My the back of my hair has not grown in too well because i am sleeping on it and leaving loose ends... But now I am keeping my hair in a poiny tail when I go to bed, and I honestly believe that, that will do the trick.



Hair breakage???

My husband used to have long hair when he was a teen (rebellious type ;) and he swore that the typical African American hair products caused breakage because of the petroleum base. Petroleum is really not good for hair! Use Pantene Pro-V and lots and lots and LOTS of conditioner. Also, sweetie, at the end of the day, it IS your hair. You have to look at yourself in the mirror. What do YOU want? That's what should matter most. Anyone that truly loves or respects you will only want you to be happy with your own look. Unfortunately, I don't know much about African hair at your length, because the hubby went from spikes with gel to shaving his head completely bald when we got married. Good luck!



(Remember: It's only hair! It WILL grow back! And if it doesn't grow back, you have bigger problems than just your hair style! LOL But damage in hair does snowball...ends continue to split, hair will continue to break, etc.)



Hair breakage???

I can tell you what worked for me. When I got my first perm my hair started really breaking and what my mama did for me was kept it greased and oiled not putting any extensions in it, thats the key. Leave the weave out! Keep your natural hair braided and the split ends clipped. Do this for like 6 months and you'll start seeing that your hair is growing and is healthier than before. Make sure that you use a good type of grease made just for hair growth, and prevents breakage. Shampoo your hair once every 2 weeks. Like every other Saturday then keep it greased and braided for two weeks. After the 2 weeks, take your hair down wash it with pantene Pro-V and repeat the steps. You may think you look boyish because your hair is braided without any extensions but girl trust me if you follow these steps you'll be thankful you did it. Another tip while following these steps is to also pray and ask God to help your hair grow. He answers prayer. And lastly make sure you don't have everybody in your head because some people just don't know what they be doin.



Hair breakage???

Cut your hair and let it grow naturally. Don't perm your hair as much maybe once in a few months. Also you a pantene breakage control shampoo and conditioner.



Hair breakage???

I had the same problem last summer. I don't have a short answer to this big problem. My hair was getting shorter in the middle of my head. Really bad breakage! I will tell you what I did. I went to the salon and got my hair cut layered because it was so UNHEALTHY and DAMAGED. It was the SHORTEST I ever had in my life! The lady wash and straighten it. So it was then back "normal" and healthy, but much shorter!



So, to avoid this ever happening again, I got me some Aveda Brilliant Shampoo and Conditioner which is made for textured and chemically treated hair (or try Pantene for women of color) I wash my hair once a week and I leave the conditioner in for about 5 mins. Next, I use Aveda Damage Remedy Intensive Restructring Treatment and leave it in my hair for 15 minutes with a plastic cap over my head then wash it out. I then apply CHI Silk Infusion just a nickel size amount to my hand and rub it evenly throughout my hair. I blowdry it straight. I apply another nickel size amount of CHI Silk Infusion to my hair and get ready to straighten with the CHI flat iron (the CHI leaves your hair silky like the salon and it is ceramic which is less damaging to your hair). Make sure you have the following products: Motions heat protectant (or Aveda Brilliant Damage Control), some Isoplus Oil Sheen, and Smooth n Shine Spray on Hair Polish. After your section your hair to straighten it, make sure you LIGHTLY spray all of the above on your strands prior to applying the flat iron to your hair. When you put the CHI in your hair, turn it like a curling iron at the end so you have that nice flip to it. When you are done, BAM your hair looks like you came out of the salon. I suggest you don't use any additional heat during the week on your hair so your ends don't split so fast and so you don't have to get it trimmed so often until your hair grows back out. But if you want to curl it during mid week make sure you spray that Motions heat protector in your hair.



Get your trim every 6 or 8 weeks depending how bad your ends are, which will depend on how much heat you use during the week. Also, WRAP your hair up EVERY night with a silk or satin scarf or sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase. Also, I used so many at home relaxers and the best one I like with no breakage is Optimum. Since I've been using the CHI flat iron at home, I have not put a relaxer in my hair since Nov. 2006 and I don't plan to. For grease I recommend Aveda Brilliant Anti-Humectant Pomade as it is petroleum free. Important: try not to use a brush because it will snag and break your hair. Instead, use a wide tooth comb and comb as less a possible. You should really check out the Sophisticates' Black Hair Styles and Care Guide Magazine. They are also giving good info. on how to take care of our hair. Good luck!

Hair Styles For Long Hair?

I have light brown/dark blond naturally curly hair that falls to about my waist or higher when I leave it curly, and a few inches below my waist when I straighten it with a ceramic straightner/curler. Mostly I just leave it down, in a ponytail, french braid or bun. I want to start adding a bit more of a stylish look to it, but something that won't be hard to do here at home. Does anyone know of any good ideas? Any good sights that can give me tips and step by step instructions? Thank you for any help you can give me. I found some sights with hairstyles today, but they all either never had the steps, or were for short hair. Thanks. :)

Girls: How do you usually wear you hair every day?

Straight hair to wavy hair?

My hair is stick straight! I want it so bad to be wavy, but not a perm. I have tried gel/braids at night but in the morning it's sort of a messy wave. I don't really like hoe it turns out. I want it like this: http://www.thehairstyler.com/celebrity_h... The 3rd picture (wavy one) or something like it. I have tryed a curling iron but it didn't hold and looked nothing like the picture. Any step by step instructions? I recently bought Sunsilk Gel and creme beach waves - I'm gonna try scrunching it Saturday, any tips? Thanks.



Straight hair to wavy hair?

you should try, texturizing gel, when ur hair is wet, use the thick (its like goop) and scrunch it....it will hold ur hair up better and use a diffuser ! good luck hun!



Straight hair to wavy hair?

I have the same problem. After you shower, french braid your hair into two braids while it is still wet. Sometimes putting in mousse before helps. Keep them in overnight and make sure they dry that way- if not then blow dry them. Make sure you do not brush them when you take your braids out- it will make your hair frizzy....or ask your hairdresser



Straight hair to wavy hair?

i think scrunching it would be really good. just make sure that when you scrunch it your hiar is like 25% dry so it wont fall out. also if you want big curls get biggger pieces of hair to scrunch. hope that works for you!



Straight hair to wavy hair?

Hello there!!!



I used to have the same issues with my own hair before I went to beauty school. There we were given curling irons that were the brand "Hot Tools." Your iron can have a lot to do with why it doesn't hold. Just buying a little bit more expensive tool, that will last even longer then say a walmart brand, can help with your look!



Also, to make a more wavy look with an iron: Instead of taking the pieces of hair, grasping it with the iron and curling try it this way. Take your section of hair, small to medium and wind it manually around the rod. You will have to hold it there instead of the iron doing that bit of the work, but you will have more of a wave then a curl! Make sure you don't burn your fingers with this little trick!



Good luck!

Get yourself a really good double-barrel curler, some root lifter, and some texturizing spray/mist. =]

I am pretty sure that she got this look with curlers. You may need bigger or smaller curlers depending on the length and thickness of your hair but it should work. If it does not, then you can always scrunch it like you said. Before adding any thing to your hair get it wet, then i would suggest putting a dime size amount of hair serum in just to keep your hair from frizzing or knotting. After that add your "beach waves" scrunch , and enjoy!

Hair breakage???

Okay, I have been using a perm for my for a long time. But since the beginning of this school year...my hair has been breaking off in the back-middle of my head. Now, I'm willing to cut my hair to make my hair even...I really don't mind that. But my parents and friends don't want me too...they rather see me get micro-braids (which I would also do) I really don't know what to do...my parents nd friends are aggrivating me!!! Anyone who is good at doing hairstyles for African Americans...PLZ Help Me!!!!



Hair breakage???

If your hair is breaking off or shedding then you need to wear a scarf/bandana/hair wrap whenever you lay down. Silk scarfs or pillow cases are the best. If you're just laying down for a quick nap or laying down watching tv always make sure you have your hair covered!



Shedding or breakage is usually a sign of stress or bad hair management so make sure you take care of your hair.



Try getting a sew-in weave or braids because they reduce the chance of you putting heat on your hair and just messing with your hair period. The less you do with your hair, in the sense that if its braided there's less that you can do with it, the better off it will be.



Hair breakage???

hello,



getting braids may further break your hair off depending on how tight the braids are..



i saw cut your hair and grow it out naturally. don't oil scalp because it will clog your pores. Wear a SATIN CAP, "Magic Satin" is really good and you can buy it at Wal-Mart. It is 2-4 dollars.



Before I started wearing a satin cap one side of my head had thick, full hair and the other side did not because hte other side would break off (i think it was because i slept on that sotten and my pillow kept breaking my hair because it's cotten, sucking the little oil I have out of my hair and thus breaking).



Within several months my hair grew in and STAYED on that side.



So wear a satin cap at night, keep oil but not too much in your hair... try to get a natural/herbal oil, not one that is petroleum based.



Relaxing your hair is bad for your hair, wear it natural.



My the back of my hair has not grown in too well because i am sleeping on it and leaving loose ends... But now I am keeping my hair in a poiny tail when I go to bed, and I honestly believe that, that will do the trick.



Hair breakage???

My husband used to have long hair when he was a teen (rebellious type ;) and he swore that the typical African American hair products caused breakage because of the petroleum base. Petroleum is really not good for hair! Use Pantene Pro-V and lots and lots and LOTS of conditioner. Also, sweetie, at the end of the day, it IS your hair. You have to look at yourself in the mirror. What do YOU want? That's what should matter most. Anyone that truly loves or respects you will only want you to be happy with your own look. Unfortunately, I don't know much about African hair at your length, because the hubby went from spikes with gel to shaving his head completely bald when we got married. Good luck!



(Remember: It's only hair! It WILL grow back! And if it doesn't grow back, you have bigger problems than just your hair style! LOL But damage in hair does snowball...ends continue to split, hair will continue to break, etc.)



Hair breakage???

I can tell you what worked for me. When I got my first perm my hair started really breaking and what my mama did for me was kept it greased and oiled not putting any extensions in it, thats the key. Leave the weave out! Keep your natural hair braided and the split ends clipped. Do this for like 6 months and you'll start seeing that your hair is growing and is healthier than before. Make sure that you use a good type of grease made just for hair growth, and prevents breakage. Shampoo your hair once every 2 weeks. Like every other Saturday then keep it greased and braided for two weeks. After the 2 weeks, take your hair down wash it with pantene Pro-V and repeat the steps. You may think you look boyish because your hair is braided without any extensions but girl trust me if you follow these steps you'll be thankful you did it. Another tip while following these steps is to also pray and ask God to help your hair grow. He answers prayer. And lastly make sure you don't have everybody in your head because some people just don't know what they be doin.



Hair breakage???

Cut your hair and let it grow naturally. Don't perm your hair as much maybe once in a few months. Also you a pantene breakage control shampoo and conditioner.



Hair breakage???

I had the same problem last summer. I don't have a short answer to this big problem. My hair was getting shorter in the middle of my head. Really bad breakage! I will tell you what I did. I went to the salon and got my hair cut layered because it was so UNHEALTHY and DAMAGED. It was the SHORTEST I ever had in my life! The lady wash and straighten it. So it was then back "normal" and healthy, but much shorter!



So, to avoid this ever happening again, I got me some Aveda Brilliant Shampoo and Conditioner which is made for textured and chemically treated hair (or try Pantene for women of color) I wash my hair once a week and I leave the conditioner in for about 5 mins. Next, I use Aveda Damage Remedy Intensive Restructring Treatment and leave it in my hair for 15 minutes with a plastic cap over my head then wash it out. I then apply CHI Silk Infusion just a nickel size amount to my hand and rub it evenly throughout my hair. I blowdry it straight. I apply another nickel size amount of CHI Silk Infusion to my hair and get ready to straighten with the CHI flat iron (the CHI leaves your hair silky like the salon and it is ceramic which is less damaging to your hair). Make sure you have the following products: Motions heat protectant (or Aveda Brilliant Damage Control), some Isoplus Oil Sheen, and Smooth n Shine Spray on Hair Polish. After your section your hair to straighten it, make sure you LIGHTLY spray all of the above on your strands prior to applying the flat iron to your hair. When you put the CHI in your hair, turn it like a curling iron at the end so you have that nice flip to it. When you are done, BAM your hair looks like you came out of the salon. I suggest you don't use any additional heat during the week on your hair so your ends don't split so fast and so you don't have to get it trimmed so often until your hair grows back out. But if you want to curl it during mid week make sure you spray that Motions heat protector in your hair.



Get your trim every 6 or 8 weeks depending how bad your ends are, which will depend on how much heat you use during the week. Also, WRAP your hair up EVERY night with a silk or satin scarf or sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase. Also, I used so many at home relaxers and the best one I like with no breakage is Optimum. Since I've been using the CHI flat iron at home, I have not put a relaxer in my hair since Nov. 2006 and I don't plan to. For grease I recommend Aveda Brilliant Anti-Humectant Pomade as it is petroleum free. Important: try not to use a brush because it will snag and break your hair. Instead, use a wide tooth comb and comb as less a possible. You should really check out the Sophisticates' Black Hair Styles and Care Guide Magazine. They are also giving good info. on how to take care of our hair. Good luck!

I have curly hair and I run out of cute styles to wear. Can you give me some cute ideas and styles?

I have curly hair. My hair is as to my middle back. I've tried straighting, scrunching and french braids.



I have curly hair and I run out of cute styles to wear. Can you give me some cute ideas and styles?

ooohh! lots!



IT'S PLAYTIME FOR ME - YEAH!



for thin or fine hair, apply a thickifier (bed head has a good one that smells like grapes - yummy) and pull back a small section of hair from the temple area ( both sides ) and pin at the crown. do the same thing with little sections from behind the ear and at nape. grab the sections of hair between the pulled back ones and pull the hair out just a little ( to make an almost poof ).



if you have thick hair then use a pomade for shine.



you can put little beads in hairpins and pin in the same places as the bobby pins or do flowers (or some kind of bling) or keep it natural. it looks great either way.



this one is super easy to do yourself and looks like you spent forever doing it ( right! it takes about 5 minutes.)



pull back the top (from the ears up) and ponytail.



pull back the bottom (the rest of it) and ponytail just under the first.



each pony tail gets divided into 3 sections.



apply pomade or thickifier to one section and finger comb to get it unfuzzy. bobby pin around that section (hair inside the bobby pin) about 3 inchs from base of pony tail, twist and pin under the ponytail base. 3 more inches, one more bobby pin, twist and pin. do this for all 6 sections.



this looks great for a wedding or a more formal affair.



time: about 10-15 minutes.



ponytail on the side of the back of the head towards the bottom. (loosely) grab tail section and twist to the opposite side. pin (under ponytail holder) into place (looks like a french twist) leave the ends out.



need more? feel free to contact me thru yahoo.

Hair and rat tail...help?

Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

Do a messy bun with ribbons tied around it....



It will be so so so cute if you get the messy bun to look just perfect. practice a little before hand so you know where to place the hair.



Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

use head and shoulder



Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

curl your hair! curly pigtails!



Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

I'd do a simple pony tail, but make it cute. Maybe part your hair on the side, and pull a few strands out, twist them and pull them back. Then get some thick preppy ribbons in your schools colors and tie a big cute bow in the back.



Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

Hey, I'm a cheer coach- try these. Pigtails with a Pompon in each or braids with ribbons braided in.



Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

braids at the top curl your hair and put it in a low ponytail



Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

ah, my friend, youve come to the right section.



:)



Well, what I would do , is scrunch'curl your hair and make a small "poof" in the front with your front pieces of hair. (remember to keep that part straight).



Next, use a hair color that is blue.red and apply streaks right in front of both of your ears, and behind them, as to not look tacky.



and also, apply a strand either next to the poof or in it.



Also, flat ironing it lwould look amazing.



talk about model-status.



GOODLCUK! :)



Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

uhhh where it down.. and make a bubble with a blue, silver, or white bow



Please help me with hair ideas for the pep rally!!!!!!?

If you hair is long enough, pull it back into a high pony tail and use a crimping iron to crimp the sections. Then tie in ribbons the same color as your school colors around the elastic band holding the pony tail in different areas. Then take the 3 colors and tie them around the elastic band, making a bow. It's cute and fashionable and you'll be able to add your school colors. Or you can always do two ponytails - one on each side of your head, curl them for a little more bounce and add the ribbons. Hope this helps!

Frizzy hair?

When I get out of the shower I let my hair air dry for about an hour and it will still be damp. It takes on this natural wave/slightly curly (not extremely wavy, like it looks like I'd kept in in braids or something) and if I had my bangs tucked behind my ear they become side swept after I let them dry. It looks so pretty, and I wish I could keep it like that. But, when it's dry it get so freaking frizzy and poofy, mostly in the back! So, I have to straighten it with my ceramic straightener which takes out the waves and is just a pain. It reduces the frizz a little, but I still have to hair spray my brush and brush it down to make the frizz stop. I use sleek and shine shampoo, but it helps none! If I could just get rid of my frizz and poof my hair would look great.



Oh, and God forbid I blow dry my hair! It makes the poof and frizz ten times worse.



Frizzy hair?

Try an antifrizz serum. Deep conditioning treatments work for frizz as well.



Since your hair frizzes more in dry weather try a moisturizing shampoo/conditioner.



Frizzy hair?

use some gel



Frizzy hair?

if you get a pro-tools blow drier it doesn't make it frizzy... get the ionic/ceramic one...



%26amp; use a good hair serum or mousse



Frizzy hair?

keep in a bun or your hair up



Frizzy hair?

At a CVS or Savon there's some citre shine thing it smells like lemon and put it on after you shower



Frizzy hair?

you could try scrunching it (with a wax or gel) when it's still slightly damp.



Frizzy hair?

i hate this answer too but im sorry



the only way is too get new DNA



God gave you the hair you have and you have to live with it



im sorry



but you can try things such as hats or pulling your hair back into a pony tail.



Frizzy hair?

you can try and use some frizz-free sampoo and conditioner. or you can get a hair straightner-- then when your hair is damp just srsighten it then it will come out dry and sraight with no frizz. you could use some hair mousse too-- if possible find some with frizz control.



Frizzy hair?

i used to have the same problem, but then i realized the the shampoo i was using had the wrong chemical reaction demonstrated by radiation. the products they use these days pay too much attention to the looks, but not the right substances. what you have to do if you want the perfect chemical reflexes by the liquid being used on your hair to get frizzes permanently away from your scalp to your ends is mix these ingredients:



* olive oil



* vanilla extract



* " I Can't Believe its not butter"



* lemon juice



* "Listerine" mouthwash



* Brown sugar



* "Palmolive aroma therapy"



* Balsamic Vinegar



* any brand of soap



If you add all of these ingredients together, you will receive a delightful chemical reaction to sooth your scalp and reduce the amount of "Frizz" in your dead cells (your hair).



- I hope to satisfy your needs, Knowledge



Frizzy hair?

sunsilk and pantene shampoos are really effective against frizz. look for the ones specifically labeled "frizz control". i use the sunsilk and it really works. :D

Biketoberfest, need hair help...lol?

This will be my first trip to biketoberfest and I need some suggestions on how to put my hair back without it getting wind blown. LOL I know to put it in a ponytail or braid it but are there any other suggestions? I dont like to put my hair in a ponytail because then it will be kinky......help! :) Thanks!



Biketoberfest, need hair help...lol?

I french braid my hair and then tie on a bandanna around the top and back to keep it in place. If it's wet when you braid it and then tie it up it will keep you cool on the ride down. When you get there take off the bandanna %26amp; voila! No kinky wind blown or horrible helmet hair.



Biketoberfest, need hair help...lol?

braided pony tail



Biketoberfest, need hair help...lol?

i wear mine in a pony tail then every 3 or 4 inches, put additional pony tail holders in it as you go down.

I have really curly hair. I've run out of different hairstyles. any ideas?

when i want my hair down, idk what to do with it. so i just leave it down, and pull some hair back. but my hair is super weird, and towards the bottom of my scalp, the hair grows really frizzy and the curls don't form together. it's odd. Buns and braids are what i do most. i need something that i can do easily and fairly quick. thanks



I have really curly hair. I've run out of different hairstyles. any ideas?

You know the easiest style is too do beachy hair. Apply mousse to wet hair and let it dry naturally to avoid frizz. It works great for me becasue it's low maintanence as far as styling goes and hair smells nice. I like Finesse Mousse.



I have really curly hair. I've run out of different hairstyles. any ideas?

buy a special shampoo.



I have really curly hair. I've run out of different hairstyles. any ideas?

While your hair is wet, add a bit of gel or mousse to it, and then scrunch it (by squeezing it with your hand) to form the curls more tightly and neatly. When it dries, the curls will be clean and put together, and then you can wear it down, or in a ponytail or, half up half down if you like.



Another good idea is to learn to separate your hair into parts, and then blow dry it out with a round brush (made with natural bristles). A good hairdresser can show you how to do this next time you get your hair trimmed. Just ask, its part of their job.



Take it from someone with curly hair, if you don't have your hair cut into layers, you should. Layered hair makes curls much cleaner.

Hair Disaster!!What should I do?

Well my Hair stylest cut my hair to short,it's about an inch above my shoulders.It's to short to braid it.What else could I do to not be the laughing stock of middle school?



Hair Disaster!!What should I do?

do that thing where you put the back straight back with gel and if its too long for that get it cut shorter!



http://www.flickr.com/photos/blah_oh_wel...



Hair Disaster!!What should I do?

It doesn't seem like there is any reason for short hair to cause you to be a laughing stock...google short hair styles and see if you can make it work!



Hair Disaster!!What should I do?

What you should do is do a side part. It's takes away attention from your short hair, and gives your face structure

How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

My hair has been damaged very badly from wearing tracks. I have been wearing braids and using Doo Gro for three months now. Should this help it grow. How long woul it take for my hair to grow?



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

really depends on how short your hair was when you want it to start growing. In the meantime. putting doogro in your hair and wearing braids is not the only trick to make your hair grow. (If anything braids dont really make your hair grow faster, it just show you that your hair is growing period) Here are a list of options to grow beautiful hair:



-get trims, remove all split ends at least once a month or everyother month, that will help your hair grow faster



-get a hot oil treatment every two weeks or longer, especially when you get braids because braids if they are too tight can damage your hair.



-deep condition, keeps from hair getting to dry.



not to much heat on your head. because you have braids in your hair that shouldnt be a problem.



-(grease or lotion) your scalp AND your ends so that they wont be too dry and dont put to much grease or lotion on your scalp, more applied to your ends since they are more exposed to the enviorment



-your diet, sometimes to fix something outside you must work within. Plenty of fruits and green vegetables work, they have protein and protein is what is in our hair. It also does wonders for your skin.



-stay stressfree, that might sound to broad but stress contributes to women losing hair.



wash your hair as needed, dandruff even though many people believe does NOT make your hair grow, so its important to keep up with clean hair and make sure that you massage and not scratch because when you massage your scalp, the blood circulates and brings even more growth to your hair. and finally,



-stay away from harsh chemicals and styling.



hope that helps, you should have a beautiful full head of hair within 1 year.



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

I've heard a half an inch per month making it an inch and a half after three months. I'm not sure if it's the same for everyone or not but I go to the hairdresser once every three months and she take off an inch and a half each time.



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

hair grow 1 inch a month.



try aloe vera plant. crub it on scalp.



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

The general rule is that our hair grows 1cm every month, or full moon. So in 3mths, by theory your hair should have grown 3cm! Each person is different, due to diet etc. If you were to get your hair cut or styled, you should have it done after the full moon . Then you will get longer out of your new hair style!



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

I dunno about that doo gro thing, but my hair grows about an inch a month it seems



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

if you want your hair to grow longer and faster you need to eat protein I know that sounds weird but trust me, your hair is made up of dead protein so if you do not eat enough of it then your hair will not grow as fast and as for the stuff you put on your hair its a scam you body can only make hair from the inside not the outside. Like my family eats alot of read meat and chicken my hair i have to get cut about evry 3 weeks because it grows so fast. Same with my sisters before she got her own house she does not eat as much red meat now and her hair has almost stopped growing. So eat some meat. If you are a vegan thantake a protein pill



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

i think 1 inch



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

Hair grows on average 1/2 inch per month some ppl are a little slower others faster. I'm not sure what doo gro is, but typically a stimulating shampoo like Paul Mitchel's Tea Tree, or vitamens mat help..still you wont get any dramatic results.



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

Our hair grows at the rate of half inch a month. So after three months they may grow 1.5 inches longer.



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

head hair grows aprox. 1/2 inch per month



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

hair growz half an inch every month.......u do da math



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

be very gentle with your hair .dont comb or brush it in a hurry our hair is very fragile.



2).for the period that you are trying to achieve your desired length try to keep it braided.i do not recommend a weave or a wig these are not good for your hairline.try individual braids and make sure there is enough hair in each braid to support the human hair or synthetic hair that you (should )use to make them.the parting at the base should not be too small in comparison to the size of braids.there should be enough hair to support the weight of the braid .keep them in for at least 4 months each time. shampoo and condition your hair and wait about a week and do the braids again.it takes patience.



3)when your hair grows long ,to shampoo be gentle and do not do it too many times. once a week is just fine.first, oil it the day before,to shampoo,make 4 large braids and undo each braid, one at a time,shampoo,comb through and redo.do this one by one. continue for the other three combing through each time with a large toothed comb before braiding.follow with conditioner and again undo ,apply conditioner and re do each braid one by one and then wait as specified with the particular conditioner you are using.after that undo them all and use the comb to comb through distributing the conditioner further all through your hair very gently and then rinse .at this point dont put too much tension on the hair.its even more fragile when its wet.



4)avoid heat and excessive friction on your hair



i hope this helps i am black too and most people think i am wearing a weave because my hair is so long.it hasnt always been like this.i am almost 30yrs old and i ve learnt to be patient and gentle on my hair unlike the days i used to comb and brush it several times a day. it has payed off.also its important to use a satin scarf when you go to bed at night.my hair is relaxed.i make sure to use regular strength relaxer and to retouch it every six weeks when i dont have braids.do not over process or under process your hair this will cause it to break.do not overlap when relaxing and condition everytime you shampoo.



How long is a person's hair suppopsed to grow in 3 months?

Most people, their hair grows from 1/4 in to 1/2 in in a 30 day cycle. But this is if your health is good and you take in the necessary nutrition, vitamins and such. Blood flow is the catch here. That is what feeds the hair, so stimulation and message on the scalp help alot. During the summer or warmer months, most people are more active and notice more hair growth than in the cooler or cold months. Keeping the hair and scalp clean with milder shampoos and conditioners are also best. Limit the use of too much heat utensils, blow dryers, curling irons and flat irons. Don't pull too much on the hair when it is wet, wet hair stretches and can pop like rubber-bands. Always detangle hair by starting at the ends with a wide tooth comb and work up toward the scalp, no yanking (like when we were kids and the dreaded hair brush episodes).

Teased about my hair, Please help!!!!?

I am african american, and i like to straighten my hair sometimes. My friend is always making fun of me because I don't want to get it wet when i have straightened it. Plus it takes my like four hours to straighten it. So one day we were going swimming, and my mom forgot to braid it before we got in the pool. My friend kept saying i was missing all the fun by not going under water. She finnally decided to pull me under water. When i came back up me hair was all nappy, and it looked like a huge afro. I was so embarrassed and angry. She told me she new how long it took for me to do my hair, she just wanted to mess it up, and get me under water. Then when she left, my parents were going to take me some where special. But it would take to long for me to get ready so we did not go. MY hair looked even worse after she left. Also people are always asking me why I always have my hair in braides. What should I do?

Biketoberfest, need hair help...lol?

This will be my first trip to biketoberfest and I need some suggestions on how to put my hair back without it getting wind blown. LOL I know to put it in a ponytail or braid it but are there any other suggestions? I dont like to put my hair in a ponytail because then it will be kinky......help! :) Thanks!



Biketoberfest, need hair help...lol?

I french braid my hair and then tie on a bandanna around the top and back to keep it in place. If it's wet when you braid it and then tie it up it will keep you cool on the ride down. When you get there take off the bandanna %26amp; voila! No kinky wind blown or horrible helmet hair.



Biketoberfest, need hair help...lol?

braided pony tail



Biketoberfest, need hair help...lol?

i wear mine in a pony tail then every 3 or 4 inches, put additional pony tail holders in it as you go down.

I have straight hair but i hate it i want it curly ...?

i tried scrunching it %26amp; it doesnt work. my hair is straight and stays straight, is there any product that will make my hair curly? or wavy? like a shampoo or something? iv been wanting curly hair my whole life, but nothing seems to work for me and i hate putting braids or curlying it with an iron or w.e



helppp?



I have straight hair but i hate it i want it curly ...?

wow this is definetly i first :]



i suggest you get a perm, if you want lasting curls.



I have straight hair but i hate it i want it curly ...?

try sleeping on rollers...they usually give pretty good curls and if you're worried about hold you can probably use hairspray or putting a hold serum on your hair beforehand



I have straight hair but i hate it i want it curly ...?

No product makes your hair curly without any added work.(in least none that I've tried...)curl your hair with a VERY small curling iron.only curl a very small piece of hair at a time.



I have straight hair but i hate it i want it curly ...?

wow i have curly hair and i want it straight! i really dont know what to say but try to curl it with TRESemme volume mousse and use a curling thing



I have straight hair but i hate it i want it curly ...?

If you want it curly the only solution is a perm, but you`ll need tons of styling products for freezze. Besides a perm damages your hair even more than coloring.



May I suggest before a perm, why don`t you try cutting your hair in layers? It will still be straight but it will easily be styled with a more wavy style.



I have straight hair but i hate it i want it curly ...?

You could get together a bunch of scrunchies and shampoo your hair dry till it is almost dry and put the scrunchies in your hair all over the head and scrunch them right to the root of your hair.....sleep on them and take them out in the morning.....you will have curl and body going on ......try this a few times till you can place them on your head so you can sleep with them in so as to not hurt your head while you are trying to sleep.....trying this a few times will also let you know how this will work for you and where to place them to get the most out of setting your hair this way



I have straight hair but i hate it i want it curly ...?

I acually have that same exact problem. I suggest using



something like curl shampoo. For mousse i would say



get Got2b products, they're fantastic!

I have really curly hair. I've run out of different hairstyles. any ideas?

when i want my hair down, idk what to do with it. so i just leave it down, and pull some hair back. but my hair is super weird, and towards the bottom of my scalp, the hair grows really frizzy and the curls don't form together. it's odd. Buns and braids are what i do most. i need something that i can do easily and fairly quick. thanks



I have really curly hair. I've run out of different hairstyles. any ideas?

You know the easiest style is too do beachy hair. Apply mousse to wet hair and let it dry naturally to avoid frizz. It works great for me becasue it's low maintanence as far as styling goes and hair smells nice. I like Finesse Mousse.



I have really curly hair. I've run out of different hairstyles. any ideas?

buy a special shampoo.



I have really curly hair. I've run out of different hairstyles. any ideas?

While your hair is wet, add a bit of gel or mousse to it, and then scrunch it (by squeezing it with your hand) to form the curls more tightly and neatly. When it dries, the curls will be clean and put together, and then you can wear it down, or in a ponytail or, half up half down if you like.



Another good idea is to learn to separate your hair into parts, and then blow dry it out with a round brush (made with natural bristles). A good hairdresser can show you how to do this next time you get your hair trimmed. Just ask, its part of their job.



Take it from someone with curly hair, if you don't have your hair cut into layers, you should. Layered hair makes curls much cleaner.

Help with afro hair?

I remember once reading a book: Good hair by Lonnice Bonner.



That might help you deal with your hair on a daily basis. Books, as expensive as they can be, usually are the better choice. That way, you'll always have a reference.



Personally I would suggest twisting your hair while it's wet and loosening it out--like a wet set. That can look very pretty.



Here's a website: http://www.colonnadeintl.com



Hope it helps

I also have very curly hair which people like to describe as 'Afro' but it isn't a proper afro. :] Anyway well i usually blow dry my hair and then use my GHD straightners (but that isnt very good for your hair) so i usually use a anti frizz for curls on pantene pro v. also i find that if you just put a small or thick (dusnt matter really) headband and scrape it back!

Hi,



It's possible to maintain poker-straight hair using good quality straighteners (but use thermal protection products first). I use Creme Press by Keracare, you should be able to find it online. Once your hair is straight, try and stay out of the rain and avoid humidity (like steamy bathrooms!)



At night, I brush my hair back and sleep with a do-rag on my hair. This protects the hair during the night and I wake up with straight hair, even round the hairline, so I don't have to straighten it too often. Most hairdressers that cater for mixed textured hair like yours, and also Afro textured hair will recommend that you wrap your hair at night. I find it difficult but it's good for your hair and keeps it straight.



I buy magazines like Pride and Black Hair and Beauty. You can prob' get them delivered to your door, I think they're very good.



The main thing with your hair is to keep it moisturised, getting regular trims.

Super long hair?

Why do so many people seem to hate super long hair?



My hair is hip lenght, well maintained. I trim it, it has no split ends and is in good condition. I keep it braided alot, and when it's loose it has pretty waves from the braid.



What I don't understand is why people keep pushing me to get it cut. It has taken years to get this long.



Super long hair?

They are just jealous. You wear your hair the way that you want it!!



Super long hair?

i love long hair , by answering your question am now in level 4



i love you and thanks for asking



Super long hair?

just tell them you like your hair th@ way



Super long hair?

i have long hair too and i know i get bugged about the same thing!! all you can do is say **** them i love my hair!!



Super long hair?

i love super long hair its cute. i used to have long hair now its short and i hate it



Super long hair?

They are just jelous, dont do it!



You will regret it!(thats not a threat, LOL)



Super long hair?

I have virgin hair down past my waste and people say the same thing to me. I also trim my own hair and it is always smooth and sleek. My husband and his best friend love it and tell me not to cut it but everyone else, all women, tell me to hack it off. They are just extremely jealous people who can't stand to see how beautiful we are and hate us for it.



Super long hair?

CONFORMITY! We live in a culture where looking the same is the best thing possible.



Super long hair?

if you feel comfortable with your hair keep it they way you want it. It is yours!!



Super long hair?

I love long hair, i think that the reason that people hate long hair is becuz it can be a hassle to take care of.



Super long hair?

i don't know, i don't think people are jealous they just want to see you with a new look. i have semi-long hair and i want to grow it to my waist and then cut it to my ears but thats just me. but people nag me all the time about cutting it. and i'm just like"it took so long to grow"....



they just hatin'...go on with your bad self..hahahhaha..



Super long hair?

long hair is amazing.and if you keep it well maintained then keep that long.don't listen to what everyone says.



Super long hair?

They are just jealous



Super long hair?

DON'T CUT YOUR HAIR. Your hair are your beauty, I think, whoever is asking you to cut is jelouse with your pretty beautiful hair. Always take care of them and if it is a secret to grow them up, tell me also:)



Super long hair?

Jealousy, people with shorter hair wishes to have longer hair, but it takes so longer to grow that people are often impatient to let it grow. Be proud of your hair and continue taking care of it!



Super long hair?

jealous!!!



i love super long hair...i wish i had it...mines half way down my back but i would love to be able to grow it that long.



plus it makes you different and you know how important it is to be one of those cool sheep type people who follows all the fashions in the magazines....how dare you really have your own personality and style...its just not kosher!



flick your hair at em i say!!! :)



Super long hair?

it might be because some of the latest styles are in short hair. my hair is about 3-4 inches below my shoulder, and super straight! and if you keep your hair that well maintained, then i cant find a reason for ppl to be pressuring you ta cut it!



Super long hair?

I love long hair!!! its very sexy! i shows that a girl cares very much about how she looks and doesn't mind putting in hard work to keep herself looking great! I say leave it long! beautiful, very feminine :)



Super long hair?

i have long hair too. and everyone loves it but want me to cut it because they are jealous and want me to dontate it to something better like Locks of Love. Dont listen to them becuase the way you style your hair helps to express your feelings and without it you wouldnt be the same. i cut it one time only about 5 inches and i cried so you do what you want and you wont be dissapoineted. trust me. i should know you should too.



Super long hair?

Don't cut it out...I have the same hair like u have and i luv it...Don't believe in wut people say all the time...Not all the girls have hair like us...its just few who can maintain it..so let them say wut they want to say...I like girls having long beautiful...if u wanna cut u can cut it any time in a few seconds but if u wanna grow them it will take years...so just leave them like that...



Super long hair?

My hair is also very long. (Down to my waist) I love it and do get bugged about it. Mostly other women who buy-in to the shallowness of fashion trends are the main offenders. When someone tells me I need to cut my hair I look at them and ask "Why do you find it necessary to find fault with the way I look?" That usually stops them in their tracks. I have attended several funerals where the bereaved would stand next to me and absentmindedly run their fingers through my hair. I think it comforts them somehow and for that, I am grateful I have long hair. Oh, and yes, the men LOVE it!



Super long hair?

i love long hair



Super long hair?

Many people believe that long hair is really annoying. Such as getting into your food or hitting people whenever you turn too quickly. Long hair also can clog sinks or vacuum cleaners, and some people just dont care for long hair. It's just other people's opinions. I know quite a few people who like long hair. It's your decision, and you shouldnt let what other people say change it.



Super long hair?

i think most people hate to see other people have so much patience. its a jealousy thing. keep your hair! youve put in the time and effort to have it so enjoy it. too bad if others cant be as patient to let theirs grow as well.

Short hair :]?

hey, I have short, to my chin, hair. It has layers up to about the top of my ear, the most I can do with it is leave it down or put it in a half pony, also sometimes I use a clip and clip my side bangs back. I have thick dirty blonde hair with side bangs. I can't put it in a pony tail, or pig tails, so braids are also out of the question. I know I asked this before, but I didn't get any answers that I could use. Please help! I'm bored with my hair!



Short hair :]?

you can try to style it differently with mouse, gel, wax or just blowdry for different occasions... you have no idea how many looks and styles you can get from short hair, just fool aroud and experiment a bit and see what looks good....



Short hair :]?

My niece has the same cut it's really cute when she blowdrys it and it looks all crazy with different pieces sticking out all crazy every which way, I always try to get her to wear it to school like that but she always straightens it, or you could do something all the kids are calling "Liberty spike it". seems fun



Short hair :]?

you can always crimp pieces of it.



be creative with using cute clips.



or with short hair you cant go wrong with a lot of volume!!



so try to use a volumizing mousse.



Short hair :]?

dye it a light blonde, or black with a few blonde highlights... that wont really help with styling, but it will make you not so bored with your hair.



Short hair :]?

You could curl or straighten it.



Short hair :]?

Extentions are fun. I put in streaks of a random colour I like at the time (link to the awesome safe dye below) and get cheap tie-or-clip-in extentions and braid and do ponytails.



As for the bangs; get them layered or try a Gwen Stefani poofed-up pinback curl.



Short hair :]?

you can curl it or scrunch it or wear a head band. im not really sure what else you could do. theres not much you can do with short hair :\



Short hair :]?

my hair is a little bit longer than yours, and i get bored with it too...



i wear lots of headbands and ribbons. they come in lots of different colors and fit all kinds of styles. they saved my life!!



also, mix up the texture of your hair...i.e. if it's straight, or you normally straighten it, make it wavy! and vice versa.



but don't make it too curly or you will get a triangle head...



hope it helps!!!



Short hair :]?

If your hair is curly,straighten it.



If it is straight ,make it curly.



Change the color.



Go to a reputable salon,and get a WEAVE!



Go to a beauty supply store and buy a fall.(it's like half a wig)



What about head bands???



Get a bunch of hairstyle mags and get more ideas,



There are always options!Have fun!



Short hair :]?

my hair is right above the shoulders. and what i do is get Herbal Essence Scrunching gell and Mouse. (its in a purple bottle) and then you wet your hair and brush it out. then you flip your hair back and forth a few times then but the mouse in first and start scrunching it. and then you do the same thing with the gell. make sure when you pour it in your hand that its about the size as a golf ball. then you take a few clips and twist some pieces of your hair and clip them. and after about 5 mins take it out and let it air dry or defuse it with a defuser.



I hope this helped! : ]



Short hair :]?

1. get a new color..it helps your image



2.try parting it different



3.do twists back with half and then straighten the other half
