Do you want to have thick hair - give up styling

Make haircut "cascade"
The next time you go to your hairdresser for a new haircut, ask him about a haircut with strands of different lengths. Long hair looks heavier, which is why, if they are thin, they lose volume. If you still want to keep the length, but want to give your hair a little volume, ask your hairdresser to cut a few short strands around the face and still keep the length behind it will be a good compromise.

Use conditioner for hair ends
Air conditioning is an important part of your daily hair care routine. However, when applied directly to the roots of the hair, they become heavy and begin to look sluggish and dirty. Instead, when applying conditioner to your hair, distribute it only at the tips.

Use cosmetics for hair volume
To instantly get a more magnificent head of hair, use powder to increase the volume of hair. For your information, it is different from dry shampoos and structuring hair styling sprays, as it is applied directly to the hair roots. Powder gives your hair a voluminous effect that lasts throughout the day.

Refuse styling with a straightener
Hair straightening with the help of an ironing instantly makes your hair look thinner, especially if you make the ends of your hair absolutely straight. To make your hairstyle smooth, but still lush, blow-dry your hair with a large, round brush, twirling dried hair on it from the roots to the ends.

Experiment with hair styling mousses.
Regardless of whether you blow-dry your hair or let it dry naturally, use light mousses that add volume and density to your hair. Apply a little mousse to the strand at the base of the hair and gently spread it all the way down to the tips. We guarantee that your hair will look thicker after it dries.

Curl your hair
Twisted from root to tip hair looks more and more magnificent. Use curling iron for hair, then gently comb them to get real Hollywood curls.

Hide the roots of your hair
Getting rid of thinning areas will help you disguise with hair growth stimulants. Choose the one that best suits your hair color to create the illusion of thicker and lush curls.

Try to braid them
With the right amount of texturing spray, you can easily make your spit look very lush with little or no effort. Braid any braid of your choice, spray it with spray and slightly stretch the resulting links in different directions, thus allowing it to look bigger.

Find your shampoo

Literate styling begins with cleansing the scalp. Only clean, well-groomed hair can be gathered into a fashionable hairstyle, curled with tight curls or straightened with a silk cascade that falls beautifully on the shoulders. Make a bet on shampoo for fine hair with the effect of basal volume. In its composition, you will find substances that add to the hair the missing thickness, which makes them more obedient to further manipulation. Pour a small amount of funds on the palm, dilute it with water and apply the mixture to the hair. Carefully work strand by strand and do not forget about the scalp massage: it stimulates blood circulation, normalizes the work of the sebaceous glands and strengthens hair bulbs.

Avoid frequent washing

Many cosmetic brands urge us to wash our hair as often as their condition requires. But in the case of thin hair, this advice does not work. Daily washing of the head makes hair more fragile and brittle, deprives them of vital energy. If your hair gets dirty too quickly, practice using a dry shampoo between wet cleansing procedures. And remember: you use dry shampoo best for the night. While you are in the arms of Morpheus, the product works by absorbing fat from the hair and scalp. As a result, you wake up beautiful with an unimaginable volume at the roots. Just remove the dry shampoo from the hair with a frequent comb, and you will see for yourself.

Buy the "right" conditioner

Stay away from products with “moisturizing” and “nutrition” on the label. Most likely, their composition contains oils, which tend to make thinner hair, preventing the formation of volume. Hair with excess power does not keep styling, the maximum for them - 2 hours of beauty. Use the conditioner sparingly, never put it close to the roots, better let it go 3-4 centimeters from the surface of the scalp.

Always use thermal protection.

Starting drying the hair, apply thermal protection to the hair. Ideally, if it is presented in the form of a spray. Then put your head down and work the roots with a warm stream of air from a hair dryer. When the moisture at the roots goes away, take a round comb or use the appropriate attachment of the device to dry the wet areas at the ends of the hair. Complete the procedure with a cold jet of air, then wait a few minutes and proceed to the next step.

Avoid layering

To add a long hair to the head, many of the fair sex choose cascading multi-level haircuts. But it is worth a little to overdo it with the number of layers, and this will give the illusion of even thinner hair. Therefore, do not get carried away: 2−3 levels at the roots and no more than two at the ends of the hair - that's all that is required to be perfect.

Relax over the backs

Of course, bouffant is not the most useful procedure for hair, but performed according to all the rules, it does not harm the health of the curls, but it gives them a luxurious amount. Never comb your hair close to the surface of the scalp, in the end it looks ridiculous. Strive for naturalness, lift the hair, retreating 3-5 centimeters from the hair roots.

Love Stickers

Many girls and women are convinced that curlers are a relic of the past, and it’s completely in vain when it comes to modern interpretations of a proven accessory. Large-diameter Velcro Curlers are indispensable in creating a daunting volume. Spray dry hair with a texturing spray, screw 3-4 clumps of hair curlers on the top of your hair curlers and blow them with warm air of the hair dryer for 30 seconds. Wait 10 minutes for the hair to cool, and take off the hair curlers. That's it, you're ready to shoot for a magazine cover.

Spray your hair gently

Curler or straightener can work wonders. With their help, you can create the perfect styling in just a few minutes. In order not to damage the hair texture, use the device with a ceramic coating. Ceramics evenly distributes the temperature over the entire surface of the styler, gently curling (straightening) hair. And remember, the smaller the step of heating the device, the better. Thin hair is enough 110−180 degrees to achieve a spectacular result. Look for your temperature regime starting from the minimum mark.

Fix hair with lacquer

Choosing hairspray, look at the means with a weak degree of fixation, designed specifically for fine hair. Make sure that the product does not contain alcohol, drying hair, but the vitamin complex and panthenol in the composition will be an advantage. Spray hair with lacquer, remember the sense of proportion and the law of gravity. The more styling on your hair, the less time will keep styling.

Plan a vacation

Weekend needs not only you, but also your hair. If you are carefully styling your hair 7 days a week using hot appliances and styling products, they will quickly lose their attractive appearance. At least once a week, let your hair enjoy natural cleanliness and freshness, leaving a creative mess on your head. If you do not think of yourself without careful styling, gather your hair in a sloppy bun or high horse tail. It is fashionable today!

Good afternoon, dear girls!

Here is the story of my hair interspersed with the tips and conclusions I made, trying to achieve smooth straight hair. The format is a bit strange, but I hope that you will be interested.

So, let's begin.

In general, my hair has never been curly. Wavy, slightly curly, yes. And even then, now I can hardly call them such a stretch, because, after all, my hair is straight. This is how they currently look without styling:

As you can see, there is some kind of wave. But this is rather a hall, because I dry my hair in a natural way and sometimes I can sit or lie down and my hair rubs around my neck and this wave will turn out.

Why did I use the iron for so long?

It all started with hair extensions, which I did (oh God) at the age of 17, when I was still in school. Then my hair was dark and after a bad haircut very short. Strands to build it is often the hair of Asian women - smooth and very straight. Prior to the extension procedure, these hairs are treated with various chemical compounds for antiseptic purposes, silicone means for imparting additional smoothness, shine and gloss.

So, when I negotiated with the master about the buildup and discussed all the points of interest to me, the hairdresser immediately said "be sure to buy a flat iron." The hair straightening made it possible to mask very well the fact that my long hair is not at all mine. Iron perfectly smoothed my porous and at that time very damaged strands, styling could be done quickly and simply. Then the iron has become my best friend. I used it very often, almost every day.
Fortunately, the master said to buy more oil, it was the Salerm silicone serum. From care there were shampoos and masks a mass market, sometimes professional, spray Gliss Chicken and this oil. Of course, such a set is better than nothing. But still I didn’t have a good thermal protection. My hair did not suffer only from the iron, but also from building up, while the care products reached my natural hair (which was dressed in other people's strands), I didn’t know exactly.
I walked with hair extensions for a very long time, I used the iron all the time. He, by the way, was with a ceramic coating, thank God, not with iron plates. During the time that I was long-haired, I managed 2 or 3 times to drastically change the hair color from dark to light. From time to time I had the idea of abandoning the rectifier, but I could not see such a difference in the structure of natural and artificial hair on my head. The esthete in me simply made a “hand gesture” and ran to turn on the rectifier into the socket.

Years passed ... And once I realized that my hair, in principle, had already grown, not much, not as much as I would like, but they are already of decent length. And so I made a volitional decision to abandon long hair, with which I really liked myself.
Here's what happened after the build-up:

“Now I’ll restore my hair and just throw the iron away,” I thought. But it was not there. The dependence on the rectifier was so strong that I still could not refuse it. Plus to this, my hair was not so long and beautiful as with a build-up and because of this I complexed for the first time. To take into account the condition of the hair after all the merry-go-rounds with coloring, after many years of extension and so-so care. We get of course porous hair, which is constantly pushes, curls in different directions, moreover, the haircut “cascade” lets you know about yourself. In general, a complete set of hapless hair maniac.

Tip one: If you do not want to injure your hair often with thermometers, choose the right haircut for yourself and think 10 times before cutting new-fashioned “graduations”, adding volume due to a short crown, etc. You will either style your hair or it will look bad.
I won't talk about haircuts for curls, as I didn’t go deep into this question because I had a different hair type.
For girls with a structure similar to mys, I recommend wearing hair of the same length, maximum is to make shorter strands around the face. Everything else dooms to daily styling, ironing, hair curlers, and so on in a circle.

We will continue my long history ... I started to care for my hair, I bought oils and products from the mass market, did not dye my hair or tint. Although it was a mistake. After all, my hair has repeatedly been exposed to lightening. And despite the fact that they were dark, now I would definitely tinted them.

Tip two: If you have bleached hair (or have been recently), do not neglect toning. Due to filling with pigment, the hair becomes smoother and less injured. Maybe it will play and not such a big role in the process of refusal of thermal devices, but it will not be worse (for sure, if you choose the right dye and oxide).

I took care of my hair, and my condition did not please them. I understood that the rectifier was largely to blame. Usually my hair without styling looked like this:

It is seen that at the ends of the hair is bushy and chewed.

And then for some reason I decided that my hair is wavy. Now I understand that they are bristling, fluffing and curling in different directions because of their poor condition. Perhaps the oils that I then used sushimi hair. Yes, and care was weak, consisting largely of pseudo-organics, which I then "hooked."
With the thought “you can't blame against nature,” I decided that I would emphasize my “type of natural” structure. But it was not possible to pick up the styling. I tried to stack them with a hairdryer (but then I didn’t work at all), bought a heated hair rollers, curled with the help of curlers-boomerangs and tried some other crazy curls. There were curls, but I didn't like the way I looked with them.
And the future husband kept saying how he liked straight hair and how he didn’t like curls.

Tip Three: Learn to distinguish the "state of the hair" from the "hair structure". If the hair is very damaged, it can be difficult. Analyze what your hair was like before you started to injure it. The structure of the hair, of course, may vary, but this rarely happens.

Then the time came when the Internet and social networks flooded photos with amazing results after keratin straightening. Like here it is - the solution to my problem.

Photo: krasota.guru

I doubted for a long time, walked around and around, read reviews, collected information. But as soon as I found out that the keratin straightening compounds contain formaldehyde, which is toxic, I left the thought of this procedure, but I still admired the smooth hair in the accounts of the masters.
Then this straightening was done by my girlfriend, in parallel with this, I came across an ad from a master who did the procedure on the composition without formaldehyde. Then I decided.
Of course, after the procedure, the hair was very beautiful, but at the roots absolutely slicked.

I waited 1 or 2 days (I don’t remember how much the master advised me not to wash my hair) and, armed with special hair products with keratin, went to wash my hair.
So what did I get? Nothing special.
My hair did not become perfectly straight and still styling was required, at least I always wanted to do it because the strands of the face obstinately fit into small waves at the ends. I was unhappy with the result after straightening. Hair did not deteriorate, of course, but the effect was weak in my opinion. Perhaps this procedure is more suitable for owners of thin hair.

In search of a suitable styling, I once turned to YouTube and found a video of a girl who was styling her hair with velcro curlers. Impressed, I went to the store and bought a curler of the largest diameter.

Tip Four: If you want to straighten hair more or less painlessly, pay attention to velcro curlers.

Some secrets of styling:
1. Buy the "right" curlers. If your hair is shoulder length or lower and you want to straighten it, grab the curler of the largest diameter. It is better to buy them in prof. Shop for hairdressers. Once I bought curlers in an ordinary cosmetic shop and they were very inferior in quality of foundation.And curlers from prof. Dewal stores have served me for several years.

2. Twist the hair that is 90% dry. They should be barely wet.
3. Strands must first be lifted up., stick the curlers to the tips and screw. So you get a good amount. The strand must be held at an angle. Like that:

4. Strands framing the face is better to wind in the direction "from the face."
In this photo, the girl curlers are located just as I like to cheat:

5. I fix hair curlers stealth, without them on my head, they were holding up rather badly. After I screwed all the hair, I can sprinkle the strands with something from the styling.
6. If you are in a hurry, twist only the strands on the face and the top of the head.. I did this in the morning before work: I sprayed my hair a little, sprayed 3 curlers. While doing makeup strands already lay decently.

I really liked laying on velcro curlers, especially after washing. And like, put off the rectifier and calm down. But no.
A new stage has begun in my life - work. After college days, when half the day was free time, I felt very busy at work. I came home in the evening, sometimes late. Most often she washed her hair in the evening and went to bed with a half-wet head. What do you think I was getting in the morning? Bingo, shaggy something that immediately wanted to straighten.

Tip Five: If you want to have straight hair, and you have it porous and it is easy to get creases on them, do not go to bed with wet hair. Firstly, wet hair is easier to injure by rubbing against the pillow, and secondly, “unpleasant surprises” may occur with the hairdo in the morning.

The work took a lot of time, it was necessary to combine it with study, personal life, rest. At that time, I abandoned my hair care. I used budget prof, funds from the mass market and loved insanely indelible oil Wella.

Then the hair maniacal in me was so self-absorbed that I didn’t even look at the compositions, and I used Wella oil regularly, used up like 3 bottles. And only then, when I began to think about why my hair looks bad, I saw that alcohol denat was in second place ...

Tip Six: Do not use products that contain alcohol if you do not plan to use thermal appliances. Such products must be applied immediately before installation.

My pofigizm in hair care progressed. To the care was added the preparation for the wedding and the stresses associated with the organization of the celebration. I used the iron every day - straightened hair, curled, all this only with Wella oil, without any cream thermal protection.
Then there was a wedding, a vacation ... On vacation, I also took my favorite butter and my favorite straightener, and from the care only Estel shampoo and balm.
Well, then came the moment X.
Looking at the photo on the phone somehow, I came across this:

“God, what about my hair? Why are they so short and as if broken off? ”Was what went through my head. Then I realized that I had completely ruined my hair, but rather I burned it with an iron and brought it to poor care. Later, after a couple of months during which I tried to somehow restore my hair, I wanted to take a photo from the back and was horrified even more. Now even ashamed to show it.

Then the total care began and I decided to abandon the regular use of iron for whatever it cost me. Then I found the site Hairmaniac. The departure began to become full-fledged, regular; prof. In general, this is where the lyrical part of the story ends as I began to move in the right direction and this has already become visible through the hair.

Stupid annoying lady

filirovka. Yes, I noticed that some do not go very thick hair - in combination with a large head in a loose form - as Yetti)))

Zaeshi your three hairs and be silent!))))

So how could I refuse the rectifier?

1. Systematic, regular and quality care.
This is the cornerstone. Without care, I probably would continue to consider my hair curly and scorching it with irons and curtains daily.

Care must include:
- Soft shampoo
- Conditioner or balm
- Several masks
- Spray to facilitate combing
- Cream for thermal protection (on the way out or on a special occasion, I allow myself the rectifier)
- Silicone serum or fluid

This is the base with which I lived for a long time. Later I began to get acquainted with ampoules and procedures for intensive care.

2. The rate on smoothing
If you like straight hair, it is better to choose products that can smooth strands. These are not necessarily smoothing products. Usually, cosmetics that make strands straighter have a thick, dense texture, often nutrients. In general, I choose everything that others can weight and fake. For my porous blonde, thirsty straightening is what the doctor ordered.

Means that smooth and straighten:

Absolute Repair Mask (Loreal Professional)

Joico Moisture Recovery Treatment Balm for Thick / coarse dry hair - Joyko Mask for Tough or Dry Hair

Ampoules Kaaral Restructure

Estel Curex Classic - Nourishing Hair Mask

Goldwell DUALSENSES RICH REPAIR 6 Effects Serum Hair Serum

3. Comb wet hair
So it seems to be so desired. But if you carefully and correctly comb, then you can. Just if I don't comb my hair, they can dry out half wavy. And I do not need this at all.
For combing wet hair, I use:

On the photo is a Janekle comb and a comb with happy teeth from prof. Store.
Wet hair should be combed as carefully and carefully as possible after they have already been sprayed and cream (if used).

4. We use the most careful styling
Usually my hair dries out and they themselves fall into the hair of a decent look. But if I need to be sure that the hair will look good, there are 2 ways to apply:
1) Velcro Velcro. I wrote about them above. In order to less traumatize the hair by rubbing against the velcro, I usually do a 3–5 curler. It creates a volumetric styling with a light wave. After a while the hair is just straight.
2) Exhausting with a hairdryer. I do not know how to use the brush. How many times I have not tried, it does not work ... Therefore, I simply direct the hair dryer with the muzzle in the downward direction and dry my hair, combing it with my usual comb. In my Janekle there are holes that speeds up the drying time.

In the end, I get straight hair.

5. Keep the “pest” away
After I realized that my hair was notably damaged, I just took the iron away. For everyday styling, I will not use it - I made that decision then. And it was right. Previously, the rectifier was always at hand, so there was a desire to turn it on and make styling quickly and easily.
If you want to "bring to the senses" very damaged hair, just give up on thermal instruments, reduce their use to a minimum, 1-2 times a month is enough for fragile brittle hair.

6. Take a fresh look at yourself.
Previously, I perceived myself only with perfectly straight hair, or with perfectly curled hair.
After velcro curlers appeared in my life, I fell in love with my hair with the volume I once considered a punishment.
Today, I naturally like naturally dried hair too. Yes, they are not perfectly smooth like those of Asian women, but nevertheless they look decent and without styling. With the advent of regular and good care, with the transition to the correct coloring, constant toning, the hair became more dense, healthy, not as empty and damaged as before. They acquired the appearance of more or less healthy hair (bleached hair is still very damaged hair).
I reassured the internal perfectionist and now, if something is twisted in the wrong direction, I will not grab the iron. Strand on the face can be tucked behind the ear or stabbed, screwed on curlers if you really need loose hair.

I know some girls who, like me, were addicted to iron. One of them has wavy hair. She, like me, realized that daily straightening adversely affects the hair and also began to accept the iron less often. Now she and I really like her beautiful large waves, from which she used to want to get rid of.

In the process of writing this post, remembering all that was with my hair, looking at the photos, I was once again convinced that the daily use of the rectifier was a real problem for me. I struggled with it as best I could - creams for straightening (which did not work without styling), attempts to change the hair structure and believe that they are wavy, different types of styling, keratin ... Nothing worked except for care, love for hair, which means sparing to them relations. Yes, we live once and every day I want to be beautiful, but it is not necessary for this to burn hair with ceramic plates.
Now I use the iron 1-2 times a month with a heat-shielding cream and I do not see anything wrong with that.
I want to say that I am not against hair straightening with an iron as such, and there are many examples, including on our website, when girls use thermo devices often and at the same time their hair is sparkling with beauty. But mostly brunettes. I knew perfectly well during this long struggle that my hair was already damaged and from the rectifier they suffer a lot.
