How can I tame my curly hair?

I have fairly long hair, reaches the back strap of my bra when wet, once it's dry it curls up to the length of my shoulder. I hate the fact that it looks like I have a triangle shape to my hair, once it curls up. I also hate using mousse or hair spray to tame the frizz since it leaves my hair hard and stringy looking

I'm about to lose it and just cut it all off. But I decided to ask here and see if anyone out there that can relate can help me with this.

Are there any cuts or products I can try that would help me define my curls without leaving it rock hard?

Thanks a bunch ;O)

Hiyahh =] ..

I have exactly the same problem!

At first, i used to just wear my hair up ALL the time =| But it looked so boyish! So when my sister suggested mousse, i gave it a go .. But that seemed to make it even bigger!!

I decided to ask my hairdresser what she thought :) ..

She suggested i get layers =] .. As it would bring the curls up so that the weight of them wouldnt all be on the bottom half of my hair. It really worked!! =D !!

Now i can wear my hair out whenever i want!! And using a curl definer also helps a little too so that my curls are glossy and shine =]!!

I would defo reccommend it =P

Good Luckk :D xxx

I like Aveda Be Curly. I use it sparingly, but it really cuts down on the frizz and leaves my hair curly.

Also be very careful not to brush your hair. Especially when it's dry, that turns curls into frizz.

How can I tame my curly hair?

wow u sound exactally like me! yes, hairspray does leave your hair COMPLETELY stringy, kind of like straw. this is what i do to tame my curls and make them pretty..

in the shower i use Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Shampoo and Conditioner.

brush your hair when you get out of the shower.

then, i use Proclaim Glossing Polish ( you can get it at Sally's), then i use SoftSheen-Carson CareFree Curl (you can get it at Sally's also). i dry my side bangs, and let the rest of my hair dry naturally. good luck! i hope this works for you like it works for me.

Hi! "The grass is always greener on the other side..."! I'm your opposite. Years ago, I kept perming my hair myself. Sometimes, it was just too curly. I asked the stylist who cut my hair advice. She told me to put lots of conditioner on it (and rinse it out) for a few days in a row. This helped to tame it and soften it. There are lots of products out to "sleek" or "tame" hair. Even Suave makes products if they're not in your budget. There are also "wet/dry" air brushes that help straighten out hair. A leave-in spray-on conditioner is also good. Again, Suave has products if this is not in your budget, but Infusion or Pantene are excellent. Wishing you well!

I feel your pain. I use L'oreal's Pumping Curls. It defines them and you can spray it on damp or dry hair. It also reduces frizz. I spray it on my hair after I've washed and conditioned it. I also like VO5 Curvaceous Curls. It's a mousse, but it's really light on your hair and won't dry it out. I live in Texas and our summers are super hot sometimes and once I use either one of those products, my hair is refreshed.

Hope this helps :-)
