How can I control my hair. It is very thick, coarse, wiry, dry and curly.?

The hairdresser seems to be able to tame it so has anyone got the same problem, and can anyone recommend any products.

If I dry it with the hair dryer, I just have big hair and I look like the wild woman of Borneo, so I end up just tying it back. I have tried it very short but it just curls up in the wrong direction.

Any suggestions

I am also a fellow curly. I recently recieved a book for X-mas named Curly Girl. It has many good tips to keeping the "mop" under controll. Lots of "recipes" for conditioners and stuff. Good Luck!

Have the stylist thin it out for you. If not that then get it chemically relaxed.

Hey, the hairdressers can work miracles. I like frizz ease. Try that.

Use products such as John Frieda's Frizz-Ease Shampoo, conditioner and serum. Then blow-dry your hair on a barrel brush to make it sleeker and straihter. You can also use hair-straighteners, but they can damage your hair and straightening is time-consuming.

If you want to keep curls, John Frieda also does a range for curly hair!

I to have very coarse dry and curly hair. I have learned to deal with it but have learned a few things you can and cant do! I never brush my hair after i have washed it. I brush it after it is wet in the shower and then wash it and of course use conditioner. But then after that I towel dry it and put Proclaims glossing polish (which you can find at Sallys Beauty) on it and then blow dry it. If you brush your hair after you have washed or dryed it, it makes it very frizzy. My beautician can't believe how healthy my hair is and how I rarely have split ends. I sometimes use a very light hair gel on it, nothing too sticky or thick because it dries up and gives you flakes. And also remember as you are blow drying it to style it as you dry so then you don't have to move it around alot, the more you mess with it the dryer and frizzier it gets!!

hey pal, even i have very thick hair which is quite wavy, so if i ever let my hair down, ppl used to call me a ghost coz my face was barely seen, it was so thick, then i did hair straightening, it relaxed my hair and it looks half as thick, soft and silky straight, either go for rebonding for a poke straight look like the chinese or naturally straight look thru straightning, or if u dont want to go for these, just condition ur hair well always, the more its conditioned, the shaft will be relaxed and ur hair will look straight natuirally when relaxed......

Thick hair can be very difficult to manage by yourself but i guess there must be some tricks of the trade that hairdressers can pass on - try this forum, i came across it recently and it seems quite new but the people seems friendly and helpful, i'm sure someone will be able to give advice there http://www.snips.web.com/forum/Blah.pl

Here is what I do:

I wash my hair, then put Pantene conditioner in it (they make a type for Black hair, or similar hair types) and LEAVE it in. Then, I towel dry my hair for 30 mins., remove the towel and section my hair into two halves, combing each half out (from the bottom up). Then, once your hair is still damp and all combed out, put it up into a tight bun (though not too tight that your head hurts) and leave it overnight.

The next day, take your hair down (it should be a lot softer and workable now), section it into four parts, and make four "mini buns" - secure them into place. Now you're really ready to blow-dry your hair. Use a wide paddle brush to "straighten" each part out, and start drying from root to ends, keeping the blowdryer tilted down towards the ends (never blowdry your hair upwards).

Be patient - don't leave the dryer on one spot to burn your hair, but don't continuously run the dryer up and down your hair, or brush through your hair either, otherwise you'll generate frizz. Once the part is dry, run some hair oil (if you have Black-type hair) or serum through it, and blow dry again, root to tip. Once it's dry and straight to your satisfaction, clip the part away from the rest of your hair. Wait until each part you're working on is perfectly straight and dry before moving on to the next one.

You can follow through with a flat iron on each part if you wish. I do this every week, and it works!
