Sometimes it is difficult to understand the desire of the fair sex to periodically change something in their appearance, to decorate themselves, trying to become more interesting and better, but the fact remains: almost all owners of naturally straight hair dream of flirty curls, and women with wavy curls want to get rid of unruly curls. And if straight hair can be transformed at any time with the help of a curling iron or curlers, then turning a curly head into smooth, silky hair is not so easy.

You can, of course, turn to a professional for help, who, using modern technologies, can easily cope with this task, but such services are usually quite expensive, and they need to be repeated every 2-3 months. How to tame unruly curls if you have neither the money nor the time to visit a beauty salon? In fact, you can straighten your hair at home; fortunately, there are many ways to do this. Choose the one that suits you in all respects and get started.

How to straighten your hair at home

The methods used for self-straightening hair can be divided into mechanical and chemical. The first group includes straightening curls using:

• ironing;
• curlers;
• hairdryer

The methods included in the second group are based on the use of products that contain chemical components that affect the hair structure. Such means include:

• laminating compounds;
• keratin;
• special straightening shampoos, balms, sprays and serums.

In addition, there are folk remedies that allow you to make your curls smooth and manageable - homemade masks, natural oils, colorless henna and others. All of them, of course, are inferior in efficiency to chemical compositions, but, unlike the latter, they do not require large material costs.

Now you know what hair straightening methods can be used at home, and to make it easier for you to make a choice, let's look at each of them separately.

Straightening hair with an iron

Women who want to tame their curls themselves cannot do without a straightening iron. However, it should be remembered that frequent use of this device is fraught with negative consequences - excessive dryness and brittleness of curls, as well as the appearance of split ends and even hair loss. To minimize the harmful effects of ironing, you must follow a number of rules:

• Before straightening your curls with a flat iron, be sure to wash your hair, as dirt, oil and styling residues will harden under the influence of high temperatures and make your hair look unkempt.
• Treat your strands with a heat protectant to protect them from overheating.
• Dry your hair thoroughly with a hairdryer or let it dry naturally (straightening wet hair with an iron is not recommended, as such a procedure can greatly harm it).
• Divide your hair into small strands (the thinner they are, the better the effect will be).
• Lift one strand, place the iron at its base and move it down quickly (avoid prolonged contact of the heating elements with the hair so as not to damage its structure).
• If your hair becomes very electrified after using the straightener, treat it with a small amount of hairspray.

If it was still not possible to avoid damage to the structure of the curls, cut off the burnt ends and carry out therapy using restorative masks (you will have to stop using any high-temperature styling devices during hair treatment).

Straightening hair with curlers

If you don't want to use a straightening iron for some reason, try straightening your hair with curlers. How to do it:

• Wash your hair with a special straightening shampoo with a moisturizing effect to make your curls smooth and silky.
• Apply a balm from the same series to clean hair, leave it for the prescribed time and rinse with water.
• Dry the strands with a towel and treat them with mousse (or foam) to add volume.
• Lower your head down, carefully comb your curls with a wooden comb and dry with a hairdryer, directing the air stream from top to bottom.
• Divide your entire hair into small strands and curl each of them with curlers.
• Use the hairdryer again and wait about 30 minutes.
• Carefully remove the Velcro curlers and, tilting your head down again (to maintain root volume), fix the styling with varnish.

After using the curlers, the hair becomes smooth and even, and although the effect does not last long, the styling looks as natural as possible.

Straightening hair with a hair dryer

In order to become the owner of perfectly smooth hair, it is not necessary to have many different devices on hand; an ordinary hair dryer is enough, with which you can achieve a good effect. The procedure for straightening curls with a hairdryer is performed according to the following scheme:

• Wash your hair with shampoo appropriate for your hair type.
• Pat your hair with a towel to remove excess moisture.
• Apply a heat protectant (such as a serum) and a straightening balm to your strands (don't forget to treat the ends properly).
• Part your hair (from one ear to the other) and secure the top part of the hair with a clip.
• Divide the lower part of the curls into thin strands (2–3 cm wide).
• Armed with a round brush, dry each strand with a hairdryer, directing the air flow from top to bottom.
• After drying the bottom part of your hair, move to the top and repeat the procedure in the same order.
• Treat your hair with a silicone-based shine spray that will make your hair soft and silky.

This method, of course, is more labor-intensive than straightening hair with an iron, but it is less traumatic, especially if you use a professional hair dryer that has several air speeds and temperature control levels. Another significant advantage of this technique is the possibility of creating root volume comparable to the volume from backcombing.

Hair straightening with gelatin (lamination)

Hair lamination is one of the most popular procedures today that can significantly improve the condition of damaged curls, making them smoother and more manageable. For these purposes, you can use both special formulations and regular food gelatin. How to perform gelatin lamination:

• Wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner.
• Gently pat strands with a towel to remove excess moisture.
• Prepare the laminating composition: pour 30 g of gelatin with cold boiled water, wait until it swells, and heat the finished mixture in a water bath until the lumps are completely dissolved.
• Add a small amount of hair balm to the gelatin mixture - this will make it easier to wash off the mask.
• Apply the prepared mixture to damp strands, without touching the root zone.
• Insulate your head with plastic and wrap a thick towel over it.
• Wait 40–50 minutes, and then rinse your hair thoroughly with cool water.

Hair lamination with gelatin has a cumulative effect, that is, the more often you perform such procedures, the more beautiful your curls will look.

Hair straightening with keratin

Keratin hair straightening is a special procedure that allows you to straighten unruly curls even after perm. Thanks to keratinization, strands become more manageable, easier to comb and style, stop electrifying and acquire a beautiful shine. To carry out this manipulation you will need:

• round brush with soft bristles;
• a thin comb with fine teeth;
• a set of straightening products;
• spray;
• iron.

Hair keratinization is carried out in several stages:

• Wash your curls with shampoo, dry with a towel and comb.
• Dilute the keratin composition according to the instructions and pour it into a spray bottle.
• Divide your hair into thin strands and treat each of them one by one with the prepared mixture.
• Comb your curls with a comb and leave for 10 minutes.
• Dry your hair with a round comb and hair dryer, stretching it out, and then go through the dry strands with an iron heated to 200 degrees.

After straightening with keratin, you should not wet your curls and wash your hair for 3 days, as well as braid your hair and use styling products, otherwise the resulting effect may disappear.

Hair straightening with cosmetics

If you want to tame unruly curls without exposing them to hot air, high temperatures, or chemical compounds, use special straightening products, which include:

• Shampoos with ceramides. Their secret is that they glue the cuticle scales together, making the hair smooth, even and manageable. Often, straightening shampoos contain vegetable oils, which slightly weigh down the strands and give them a beautiful shine. The main disadvantages of such products include the rather high cost and weak effect, in comparison with mechanical methods (if the hair is very wavy, then it is unlikely to be possible to smooth it out with shampoo alone).
• Straightening creams. The action of these products is based on the fact that the active components included in their composition penetrate deep into the hair shafts, making them heavier, due to which they straighten, become even and smooth. In addition, creams nourish scalp cells with useful substances and protect strands from external influences. It is not difficult to use such cosmetic preparations; you just need to distribute a small amount of the straightening composition on damp curls, comb them with a brush and dry them with a hairdryer.
• Leveling sprays. These products contain nourishing, moisturizing and protective components, as well as silicone, which slightly weighs down and straightens the curls. Sprays are applied to damp or dry hair using a special sprayer, after which the strands are combed with a brush and dried with a hairdryer. The main disadvantage of this method of hair straightening is that if you use it too often, the strands can become dull and brittle.
• Smoothing serums. These preparations combine the properties of a balm, mask and mousse. They are considered one of the most effective means, they give a quick and long-lasting effect, and in addition, they perfectly protect, nourish and restore curls. Straightening serums contain vitamins, oils and liquid keratins, which strengthen the hair structure from the inside and thereby make it smooth and silky. Any serum should be applied after washing your hair (it does not require rinsing).

To achieve a pronounced effect, it is recommended to use all of the listed products in combination (it is advisable that they be from the same series). Thanks to such manipulations, the hair really becomes smooth, even and silky, even without the use of electrical devices. However, do not forget that when using straightening products, curls become dirty very quickly, so you will have to wash your hair much more often than usual.

Hair straightening using folk remedies

In order to give unruly curls the desired smoothness, you can use not only professional cosmetics, but also folk remedies, the most effective of which are considered:

Burdock, olive or castor oil

Vegetable oils weigh down the strands, straightening them out and making them smoother. This straightening method is great for dry and normal hair, but it is not recommended for those with hair prone to oiliness to use oils.

Mode of application:

• Heat 50–100 ml of any of the indicated oils in a water bath (the amount of product depends on the length of the hair) and apply to damp strands.
• Warm your head with film and wait about 60 minutes.
• Rinse your hair with water and shampoo and dry with a hairdryer. Do oil masks at least 2 times a week and you will soon notice positive changes.

Colorless henna

Henna heals hair, helps restore and even out its structure.

Mode of application:

• Dilute 25 g of colorless henna with warm water (the finished mixture should have the consistency of thick sour cream).
• Apply the composition to damp strands, insulate them with polyethylene and leave for 60 minutes.
• Rinse off the henna with water and conditioner, comb your hair and wash again as usual.
• Blow dry your hair, stretching out the strands with a round brush. It is recommended to make such masks 2-3 times a week.

Dark beer

Beer is often used to set curls, but few people know that it can also tame frizz, leaving strands straight and sleek.

Mode of application:

• First, wash your hair with shampoo and pat your curls dry with a towel.
• Divide your hair into strands.
• Pour about 300 ml of beer into the container.
• Take a foam sponge and, soaking it in beer, go over each strand.
• At the end of the procedure, comb your hair and shape it with a hairdryer.

Tea brewing

Strong tea leaves perfectly straighten hair, making it smoother and more manageable.

Mode of application:

• First, prepare the tea leaves: pour 100 ml of boiling water over a dessert spoon of black tea, add 2 teaspoons of sugar, stir and leave to steep for 10 minutes.
• When the tea is brewed, apply it with a sponge to damp strands.
• After all the hair has been processed, dry it with a hairdryer.

Table vinegar

The vinegar solution smoothes the hair well, gives it softness and a beautiful shine. Great for hair prone to oiliness.

Mode of application:

• Dilute 150 ml of vinegar in 3 liters of warm water and rinse the strands with the resulting solution several times.
• Comb your hair and dry it with a hairdryer. Such procedures can be carried out daily.

Of course, you won’t be able to tame curls forever using the methods described above, because even chemical products intended for hair straightening do not provide a very long-lasting effect. But the listed methods, unlike salon procedures, do not require large material costs, and therefore are available to every woman.

With moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. This, firstly, will protect the hair from drying out during subsequent heat treatments with a hairdryer or iron, and secondly, it will make the hair structure heavier and saturate it with moisture.

You should not straighten completely wet hair, it should be slightly damp. If you plan on using a brush-comb and a hairdryer, your hair may become dry and brittle from the amount of moisture evaporated! In this case, the iron simply “won’t work.” Therefore, after washing, wrap your head in a terry towel for about 10-15 minutes, during which the moisture will be actively absorbed.

What products should be used for? A variety of sprays have also proven themselves to be the best. Mousses and foams often do not provide good results due to their texture; they often stick together and weigh down the hair.

So, apply spray or serum to slightly damp hair, distributing it over the entire length. Then we take a comb with fairly wide teeth and separate the hair into strands.

How are you going to straighten your curls? The most popular methods are using a hair dryer and a special round brush, as well as a special hair straightener. In the first case, you should twist each strand onto the brush and slowly and carefully pull it out under the hot jet of a hairdryer. If you choose the right comb (and you should pay attention to brushes made of natural bristles, since they do not damage the hair structure, but polish it), then you will cause almost no harm to your hair. What are the common mistakes when straightening your hair this way? You should not dry your hair completely, directing the stream too close to your hair, as this will cause it to deteriorate and dry out, losing all its moisture. There should be at least 10 centimeters between the hair dryer and the strand.

After you have dried and straightened each strand, it makes sense to spray your hair again with a moisturizing straightening spray, let it dry completely and fix it with hairspray.

And now about the irons. Firstly, it will be good if you do not regret spending money on a high-quality iron with a ceramic coating. Such irons are more expensive, but they have virtually no effect on the structure of the hair and dry it out much less. It is almost impossible to burn your hair with such an iron. The same applies to irons with a temperature selection function - you can choose the one that suits you to achieve the desired result depending on the characteristics and thickness of your hair.

Before straightening with an iron, hair should be practically dry, divided into strands and treated with styling product. Each strand needs to be pulled out from roots to ends, without leaving the iron on for long - this way the moisture evaporates greatly, and the hair becomes unruly and overdried. What is the advantage of straightening your hair this way? Firstly, the result is that the hair really looks very smooth and straight, often acquiring an attractive shine. But the effect of such straightening is very short-lived, and after the first wash, the hair returns to its previous appearance. It turns out that they need to be straightened all the time and in exactly this way. When straightening your hair with a hair dryer, you gradually change and polish the structure of the hair.

Using a curling iron, you can experiment with your hairstyle. The curling iron curls hair quickly and for a long time. But with its help you can not only curl your hair, but also straighten it.

What kind of curling iron should you use?

Thermal effects on hair always make themselves felt. To take care of your hair and reduce the risk of damage, you need to carefully choose your curling iron. Preference should be given to devices with non-metallic plates. They are the ones that do not burn the hair or damage its structure when the temperature is maintained. The best and safest option is a curling iron with a ceramic coating.

Hot hair straightening

The most common hair straightening method is hot straightening. It is the most effective and lasts on the hair for more than eight hours. Hot styling looks impressive and beautiful, and at the same time it takes you a small amount of time.

Like any other method, it has several disadvantages. The main disadvantage, of course, is hair dehydration. It is for this reason that when using a curling iron, it is necessary to use various oils and sprays to style your hair.

The hot hair straightening method is not recommended for women with weak hair. Weak hair is easily split and after a few weeks of constant use of a curling iron you will have to cut your hair short. Also, you should not hold the curling iron in one place for a long time; it is better to return to the strand again than to melt your hair.

And of course, the hot straightening method is considered not the safest. After all, straightening it, you can get burned. Burns from electrical appliances take a very long time to heal and require the same treatment as sunburn.

Sequence of actions when straightening hair with a curling iron

Before straightening your hair with a curling iron, you must carefully prepare it. It is best to apply a special smoothing agent to them for this purpose. Thanks to it, your hair will be protected and it will be much easier to manage. For convenience, it is best to divide all the hair into two parts: upper and lower. It is best to start application from the bottom.

You also need to start straightening your hair from the bottom so as not to miss a single curl. Using a comb, you need to separate a strand of hair and install a curling iron to its roots. This must be done extremely carefully and carefully so as not to burn the scalp. Having fixed the curling iron, you should slowly move it to the ends of the hair, twisting it in the opposite direction. Using the same method, strand by strand, straighten the lower part of the hair, and then the upper one.

Once the whole process is over, your hair should be lubricated with a few drops of coconut or almond oil. This will give them a healthy shine and softness.

Make a natural hair straightener.

1. Keep your hair in milk for 10 minutes, then cover your head with plastic wrap or a cap and keep it like that for another 30 minutes.

2. After this, wash your hair with shampoo as usual and then dry it with a hairdryer or under a fan using a comb.

We have specially selected only methods for straightening hair without a hair dryer. But you know you can always switch it to cold mode, right? Of course, this will lengthen the drying time, but it is not so harmful.

Start styling in the shower

And this is not a joke. To help yourself and air conditioning to boot. In your case it should be something with keratin. After a shower, take smoothing products: straightening serum or cream or. Well, after all, use a towel made of highly absorbent material, which will help dry your hair and not tangle it. We suggest: a bamboo towel is perfect for this role, which, in addition, has bactericidal properties.

Repeat after Latinas

In Latin American countries, a technique called “Toga” is popular. In order to straighten their unruly hair without a hair dryer and straightener, residents of hot countries wash their hair, dry it using the cold air function on the hair dryer, and then, almost completely drying their hair, wrap it around their head, securing it with hairpins. In the morning they get straightened and shiny hair.

Roll the curlers

Surprise: with the help of curlers you can not only create curls, but also straighten your hair, and also add volume! Large-diameter curlers are most suitable for these purposes, and you should start the procedure after you have washed your hair and slightly dried your curls with a towel.

Don't ignore masks

Don’t forget to apply hair straightening masks (it doesn’t matter if you’re a fan of store-bought ones or enjoy handmade recipes) 1-2 times a week. Of course, you will have to wait a few months to see the real effect of hair straightening without a hair dryer and iron, but be patient and otherwise you can dry out your scalp.

Comb your hair

Some stylists offer this method for those who will survive: comb wet hair with a wide-tooth comb. True, until it completely dries and straightens, you will have to do this for at least an hour. However, there is a lighter option: it is enough to treat your hair with emollient leave-in products and comb it until the product is completely absorbed, this will also help in straightening it (if you are planning to do this without a hair dryer and straightener), and will take less time.

We are all fickle girls. If we have curly hair, we want straight. If it’s straight, we want curly. In my opinion, this is inherent in the feminine essence.

My hair is naturally curly. And all my adult life I have been trying to straighten them out. No, not like forever - from washing to washing. It costs me a lot of work. But I don’t want to do any drastic and long-term procedures. I’m a woman - what if I quickly get bored and start curling my hair again)

In general, I deal with curls at home. And today I have three ways to straighten my curls.

Method No. 1

This method is suitable for those who are especially diligent, because you need to straighten your hair for quite a long time, sitting in front of a mirror and using a hairdryer.

To do this, wash your hair, spray it with detangling conditioner, and apply a little foam to prevent frizz. Then we take a round comb, a hairdryer and dry each strand, pulling it out with the comb. To speed up the result, you can first lightly dry your hair with a hairdryer, and then move on to each strand in detail.

pros

You can straighten your hair well, but, naturally, after you get the hang of it. You won't cause too much damage to your hair if you use special products that protect against hot air. In addition, after such straightening, the hair turns out voluminous and lies very beautifully.

Minuses

Of course, damage to the hair is still caused, so it is better to keep the hair dryer at a sufficient distance from the hair. In addition, such installation takes a lot of time. Especially if your hair is long. I sit for about 30 minutes in front of the mirror, but the result is worth it. Before the first rain, curly ones will understand.

Method No. 2

When I want to straighten my hair very much, make it absolutely smooth, then a flat iron comes into play. I washed my hair, applied the product to my hair, dried it a little and ironed each strand.

pros

After this straightening, the hair is very smooth and beautiful. And, in principle, compared to the first method, they take a little less time. But not by much.

Minus

Personally, the straightener ruins my hair. This is the main disadvantage. Plus, you don’t get the same volume as after styling with a hairdryer and a comb. After such procedures I feel slightly bald. Therefore, I use this method quite rarely.

Method No. 3

This is an ideal way for mothers with small children when there is no time to hang around the mirror with a hairdryer. In addition, some children are terribly afraid of its sound. Now this method is my most popular.

We wash our hair, apply detangling conditioner, comb wet hair and apply a little foam to prevent frizz. And then we make a ponytail, and twist the tip into one tight curl. The hair is straightened from above, and slightly curled from below, where there was a curl.

pros

This method requires almost no time. And you can straighten your hair pretty well. An ideal solution for mothers.

Minuses

Of course, this is not one hundred percent hair straightening. In addition, hair tied with an elastic band does not receive much benefit. And the trace of the elastic band is also visible on loose hair.

Good day, girls! Only owners of lush and unruly curls know how difficult it is to achieve manageability from curls.

Today you will learn how to straighten curly hair permanently, about keratin straightening for curly hair and about products for straightening wavy strands, why hair curls again after straightening.

Every attempt made to lay neat, even strands turns into a long and painful process, which harms the curls, produces short-lived results, and spoils the mood.

It is not surprising that the secret dream of all girls with curly hair is to get rid of unruly fluffiness, and the main question that torments them is: how to straighten curly hair without ruining its structure and for a long time.

This is what the article will be about today. Let's look at several ways to make your hair smooth and straight, and also find out whether it is possible to get rid of curls forever.

How to straighten curly hair forever? Is it real?

In a recent article, I talked about the nature of curly hair, why some people are born with curly hair, while others are born with completely straight hair. If you read carefully, then you realized that special genes are to blame for the curliness of your hair, i.e. the structure of the hair is embedded in your genome and the hair immediately begins to grow wavy, and does not become so during the growth process.

Therefore, questions like “How to straighten curly hair forever?” seem to me the most ridiculous, since no one can interfere with a person’s genotype and change it. Hair may suddenly stop curling due to certain pathological changes in the structure of the hair follicle, but this will already be a pathology, i.e. a signal that something is wrong with the body.

But don’t be upset, today in the hairdressing industry there are many techniques that allow you to remove curls for a long time, but over time, as the hair grows, they will return again. Read about these methods below, but for now I want to tell you how to straighten wavy hair at home, without chemical exposure.

How to remove wavy hair at home?

Most often, curling irons and flat irons of various models are used to straighten hair at home. These electrical appliances allow you to deal with unruly curls in a fairly short time. However, acting on the principle of a regular iron, they often change, dry out and contribute to the appearance of brittleness.

Therefore, their use must necessarily be accompanied by the use of special thermal protective sprays or lotions that neutralize the negative consequences of the contact of strands with the heated surfaces of an electric straightener.

If you have to straighten curly hair in this way quite often, there is a reason not to skimp and choose a good, high-quality iron. Expensive models provide functions for temperature control and steam treatment, and a laser-ion hair protection system.

Although such a device will be expensive, it will allow you to save on the purchase of heat-protective products and preserve the health of your hair. In addition, high-quality curling irons and straighteners have a ceramic-tourmaline coating, which, unlike a metal surface, does not damage the hair even with frequent use. These are the types of electric rectifiers that professionals use in their work.

THIS IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW!

To become the happy owner of healthy and manageable hair, “curly girls” should carefully choose care products. Styling gels and styling mousses are best purchased with a smoothing effect. Preference should be given to products that contain keratin. This type of care helps strengthen hair, makes styling easier, makes it more durable, removes frizz and turns hair into manageable, smooth strands.

Hair washes, masks, serums and other revitalizers for curly hair should be chosen with plant extracts, coconut or argan oil, and ceramides. Such products weigh down the hair, which makes it easier to straighten, and also restore the hair structure damaged as a result of thermal effects, making capricious strands beautiful and smooth.

If you have ruined your hair after dyeing it at home, then you can try to fix everything. Read the article.

Curly hair straightening products

As they say, “In war, all means are fair,” but do not forget that we are not at war with our hair, but are looking for a compromise. We, more than anyone, are interested in the health and beauty of our hair, so we need to carefully consider whether it is worth using this or that product.

One of the most gentle ways to stretch and straighten hair, but also the most labor-intensive, is to use a hair dryer and brushing - a large-diameter round brush. Either thermal brushing or a hair dryer with special removable attachments can replace this tandem and make straightening much easier.

And if you first apply special smoothing agents to your hair, the process of styling and smoothing can be shortened many times. I will not list numerous brands now, since any self-respecting company has a line of products created specifically for curly hair. Look for products that are aimed at straightening rather than maintaining wavy locks.

When straightening your hair with a brush and hair dryer, you can use simple tips that will help smooth out curls and achieve spectacular, smooth strands. For example, before straightening, you can slightly moisten your hair with dark or light beer (depending on the actual shade of your hair) or sweet tea.

And after that, begin to stretch the strands under a stream of hot air. However, it is worth remembering that wetting your hair with beer has one nuance: a specific, persistent odor. Therefore, this method, to put it mildly, is not for everyone.

I recommend studying the new article:. After reading it, you will be able to accurately determine your body type and get tips on choosing clothes.

How to temporarily remove curls using gelatin?

A worthy and inexpensive alternative to salon straightening is home gelatin hair lamination, for which you only need to spend money on regular food-grade gelatin. To prepare the product, you need to dissolve 3-4 tablespoons of gelling powder in 250 g of hot water and cool.

The resulting solution must be mixed with any serum or nourishing hair balm in equal proportions. Apply the mixture over the entire length of clean, damp hair and leave for an hour, tightly wrapping it in plastic wrap and wrapping it in a towel.

This method is good not only for its simplicity and cost-effectiveness, but also for the overall result. Thanks to the collagen contained in gelatin, hair becomes stronger, acquires a glossy shine and becomes more flexible.

How to get rid of curly hair permanently? Salon treatments

Salon straightening of curly hair gives a good and long-lasting effect. Depending on the degree of natural curliness, the specialist suggests the optimal method. It could be:

• chemical smoothing
• thermal rectification
• keratin or Brazilian straightening
• biosmoothing

The big advantage of salon straightening is the longevity of the result. Having spent an hour and a half on the procedure, you can temporarily forget about early rises and labor-intensive morning styling. The disadvantages that are typical for each method are the high cost of the procedure and the need to carry it out regularly.

And also, there is a risk of going to a specialist with little practical experience and, accordingly, a high probability of “burning” the hair or an allergic reaction. I will tell you about each method of professional straightening in my next article, so don’t miss it.

In this article you will learn how to maintain a healthy appearance for curly hair, without smoothing it, but being content with your naturally beautifully curly hair.

Why does my hair get frizzy after keratin straightening?

Sometimes, after an expensive keratin straightening procedure, hair begins to curl earlier than stated. What could be the reason? First of all, the reason may lie in failure to comply with the following rules:

• After the procedure, you cannot wash or wet your hair for 3 days.
• you can’t go to the bathhouse or sauna either
• do not walk in the rain and do not comb with a fine comb
• make sure your head doesn't sweat

If you strictly followed these rules, but after the first wash your hair still started to curl, then the reason may be the following:

• If only the ends curl, it means they were burned or overcooked. You need to cut the ends and carry out the procedure again.
• If you have curls along the entire length, this means that you have a special hair structure and one procedure is not enough for you, and sometimes your hair is completely insensitive to the procedure.
