What are some good short hairstyles for very thick hair? (More deets inside!)?

Hello :)

I need some help! I have very long, very thick hair right now. It is wavy/curly and just poofs out a lot sometimes and can be a bit difficult to manage, but keeping it long makes it work out okay. The problem: I HATE long hair!!! I just want to have short hair! x) I love the curls, but I hate the poof! Is there any way I can get it cut so that is doesn't look to poofy or any products I can use that could help it look thinner while still keeping it curly?

When I say short hair, I mean something along these lines:::

    Put a relaxer on it,it will take care of the poof,then have your beautician to thin your hair, then it lay like you want it to, you could even get him/her to layer it, that also would take care of the poofiness;Then if you don't like long hair have them style it, and if you want it cut short,cut it short(its all about you-and how you wish to wear your hair). Good Luck just remember no matter how many good ideas you get,its still up to you.

    Well you could always get it cut like any of those pictures you like, and then ask the hair dresser to thin it out. After that, after you take a shower every day,when your hair is a little damp, put in some straightening syrum, but not a whole lot. That will keep it from fluffing. Hope this was as thorough and detaled enough for you. Zoom Zoom. :)

    You need to go to a professional hair stylist and ask how you can accomplish these important things for your hair. You will feel much more accomplished after she or he can help you have the style that fits your facial and shape construction.

    You need to express your feelings about your hair and how you feel best suited in styling and shaping your hair to make you feel your very best.

    Ask your hairdresser to thin your hair out when you get it cut. My sister has the same sort of hair you described and that's what she does every time she gets it cut. (P.S. they're some cute styles! Hope you're happy with how it looks after you get it done.)

    You should try a serum to keep it from frizzing paul mitchel super skinny serum should do the trick . I recommend a straight look with a flat iron. Hope this helped
