The perfect blowout for hair?
I have very thick, wavy hair. I don't always use heat on it. Maybe once or twice a month. I also have layers. When I do straighten my hair, I like to make my layers pop like it does when they do it at the salon. However, I use a blow dryer to eliminate frizz on my roots BUT it only creates disgusting frizz on my ends!!! My hair could be completely healthy and perfect and it woud get damaged just by blow drying the ends a little. I hate the frizz it makes. Is there an alternative that I could use to help smooth out my hair and style my layers (before using the flat iron) and without using the blow dryer and round brush?

Heat & chemicals are hair's worst enemies. If you want curly hair, (or straight hair to tame your curly hair) look @ videos or hairstyles of women in the late 40's or 50's, and see how healthy & silky their curly hair was. Have you seen Miracle on 34th Street or Downton Abbey? Their hair wasn't styled by professional hairstylist. They were styled by maids. No hair oil, no serum, no hair sprays, and no gels. Many women then had long hair, curly hair and they wore hats, and pin-curled or plastic curlers curled HAIRSTYLES. The men too, have very shiny hair like the women, although the men used pomade . . .that was before Bumble & Bumble's production 70's, John Frieda's production 1988 or the invention of heating tools. Another way to find the secret to beautiful hair? Find someone with beautiful healthy curls or straight hair and ask him or her to share secrets, preferably someone who is 40-60 years older than YOU.
People slept with their curlers on, or sit in the beauty salon for 20 mins. under a helmet of hair dryer.
Curlers comes in small, medium, large curlers.
Small if you want tighter curls, shorter hair.
Medium: medium curls, medium length hair.
Large: longer hair, larger curls.
"smaller section of hair you use the tighter/bouncier the curl, and the longer bigger section you use the bigger the wave or loose the curl. "
Start your curlers, where you want the curls to begin.
You can also pin curls your hair, if they're short to medium. You can also braid your hair the night before, several sections of braid . . . .after they've been wash, all night and sleep with them, and take the braids out in the morning. Finger comb to style. Use scarf to keep them from the wind.
HEAT PROTECTION, does not protect hair 100%. Like using sunscreen, you still get sunburned. Same with hair. Hair products are not made of glue to fix, prevent, reverse hair from getting damaged or hair loss, they ARE A TRILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS, and the hair industry also do not give money back guarantee for damaged hair or hair loss caused by heat & chemicals.

Look @ my hair now, with just the use of bottled cheap shampoo, no conditioner. We also have soft water. When traveling, I briefly rinse with bottled water. Celebrities rinse theirs with Perrier water. ~ InStyle mag.
