Hair Tutorial- How To Straighten THICK Hair

[CerezaDamaris]

I believe we got the same type of hair!!!! Its crazy

[pinkienpica]

oh wow we have the same exact hair (and bob)..what a crazy coincidence!=) Thanks for the tips

[martisco]

It's nice to see thick hair tips from someone who actually HAS thick hair, unlike most hairdressers who don't even know what they're talking about. My hair is about your length. I've bookmarked this!

Just want to add, as a general note to everybody, you should never ever flatiron (or curl) your hair if it is not completely dry because you can do serious damage to it if it is even slightly wet. Don't apply high heat techniques to damp hair.

my hair is sooooo hard to straighten ughhhh

[jenny03penny]

I have super thick hair as well (although it's naturally straight but still gets big) and I always have problems when straightening it.

[iheartpajamas]

I'm so glad I found someone with really thick hair. I now have layers in my hair and I hate them because it makes the top of my hair "mushroomy" looking so I'm planning on getting all the layers cut off to about your length. My question is, is there anything you have specially done to the ends of your hair so it doesn't puff out at the bottom? I tend to get the "pyramid effect" when I have no layers so I'm just trying to figure out what I could have the stylist do to my ends to thin them out?

[YumiAwesomeCrayon]

You seem like a really nice makeup guru:) this is just what i needed. i'll so be purchasing the products, because right now since i'm still new at blowdrying my hair it takes me like 2 hrs! so thanks ^w^

[thebeautifuldiaries]

[Celeteial]

My hair is the same length as yours! And it looks like yours to. It's weird. I'll try your tips:)

[gigismommy2010]

I have the same flat iron and it works great for my thick hair as well! Your video really helped thanks :)

[cikDANCE]

I love that chi iron guard!!! MAGIC I TELL YOU! My hair is the same quality as it was before I ever started straightening my hair, around a year ago. Guess why. I use chi iron guard :D

[owlsareamazing69]

Same Flat iron its pretty good

[3022762]

[lily4a]

(GO USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

[lpsnowchic21]

The benefit of having thick hair is we don't have to wash it as often. I wash it about once a week too, depending how I feel

[HanMonGal]

Ugh, i live in China. I can't read Chinese.

I don't know how i'm gonna buy hair products :(

[askvivi1]

nice vid thnx :)

If you want a professional flat iron and you are ok with spending around $140 I would highly recommend the Karmin G3 Salon Pro, it heats up to 450f with temperature control, dual voltage, tourmaline ceramic plates with rounded edges which makes it great for also curling your hair. Also has a 3 year warranty. If you do look at other irons make sure to stay away from irons with painted plates (colored plates) these can damage your hair.

I hope this helps.

[bieberfeverforever19]

do you actually only wash your hair once a weeek? :$

[HanMonGal]

@bieberfeverforever19 Sometimes people do, cause when you really have such thick/curly/damaged hair that takes like hours to wash, condition, and then style then yeah.

[ellydottcom]

Yes, i'll check around, if not i'll go online and have a look(:

[ellydottcom]

Hello, i'm English and i have MAJORLY thick+frizzy hair.. and i'd love to try this, but can you get these in England.. i hope so.. THANKS FOR THE HELP, if not i'll try and find some others:Dxx

[thebeautifuldiaries]

@ellydottcom Hi there :) Not quite sure if all of these products are sold in England but check around and see because its totally worth it!

[yrlie]

thank you soooooo much for this tutorial! I have thick hair too and it's very annoying. I'm really going to try this!

I have still one question, how many times do you wash your hair? Because you say it stays straight for one week. And when you wash it like once a weak, how do you keep it uhmm clean (like not 'fat' or how do you say that in english? I'm dutch, haha). My hair becomes 'fat' really fast :s

[thebeautifuldiaries]

@yrlie hi :) I wash my hair right before I straighten it and then I don't wash it for the rest of the week until I feel like my hair needs to be cleaned. When it's not straight I tend to wash it at least every other day and I am guilty of washing it sometimes everyday because I put a lot of product in my hair to keep it down!

[pplbrad2]

You are the most helpful person ever!! I have the thickest hair ever, and your video's have helped me control it!! THANK YOU!!!!

[thebeautifuldiaries]

@pplbrad2 that makes my day :) glad it worked yay!

[violaxojj]

you look so much like adrienne bailon omg

[tiffanyturnerr]

Where did you get the brush at and how much did it cost?

[thebeautifuldiaries]

@tiffanyturnerr Target sells it for $8 :)

[xxangelictonesxx]

I had to have 4 1/2 inches cut off my hair because it was very dead and fried from flat irons even though I always used heat protectant..now I am scared to do anything to my hair

[musicnfashionluv1472]

how do u keep it straight overnight?

[thebeautifuldiaries]

@musicnfashionluv1472 I put on a handkerchief and sleep on my hair. or i put it in a loose pony above my head.

[Thayeba14]

[beans2themax]

[sparklexshineblog]

Oh ps, what shampoo/conditioner do you use because I have thick hair like you?

I use Red Ken Smooth Down shampoo/conditioner but if you have any better suggetstions, please help me ! & my hair is really dry!

thank you :)

[thebeautifuldiaries]

@sparklexshineblog try john frieda root awakening shampoo & conditioner or the new garnier triple nutrition shampoo & conditioner-they both work great for me!

[GrandMasterCero]

Hey im a guy and my hair is amazingly curly kinda like an afro and I want it straight or something what should I do?

[thebeautifuldiaries]

@GrandMasterCero Hi! It's hard having curly hair I know! Do you go to a salon to get your hair cut? If so maybe next time ask them to straighten it for you with a flat iron and see how that works out...I recommend the sedu iron or the chi flat iron. Other than that I'd say google straightening tips for men so you can get some great advice. Hope I could help and good luck :)

[starburst3395]

[thebeautifuldiaries]

@2009sunnydays cool! I'm glad they helped :)

[RonQE]

Why would you want to STRAIGHTEN that hair?

Do you know how incredible you would look with some wave or even curl?

Straight hair is unexciting, but curl is exciting and sexy!

[twifi101]
