hey everyone.. i have extremely curly, coarse, wavy hair...and i am wondering how do i straighten this naturally? i dont'' really want to get a perm bucause...of damage and cost.. the only way that i can get my hair to not look like it''s frizzy and too curly is to shampoo and condition every morning and put something over my hair so that the moisture gets locked in... even thou after 2 -3 hours it starts to get frizzy again.. also i''ve tried like 10 diff. gels but all of them make my hair MORE curly and dry up in bout 2-3 minutes after i''ve put them on... i was hoping for a solution on how to straighten myhair naturally or w/ some sort of conditioner?? thanks for your help!

hmm this could be a problem. you cant really have straight hair naturally if you already have curly hair. Its just unatural to do it. but we can reduce its fizziness. If you like gel, try to find one with out alcohol. Alcohol dries and firzz the hair out. Use anti frizz serum to make hair less curly. You could also use a blow dryer to straigten hair or a flat iron. A smoothing lotion/straigtning lotion plus blowdryer is a great way to get temporary straight hair. But the best way to straighten hair is to get it straigten chemically. there a two ways of doing this. one is getting a relaxer apply to the hair. 2nd is getting the hair rebonded. the later is the best one out their to get bone straight hair. the first one allows some natural waves in your hair.

I also have very thick hair that's alittle curly. I've tried to grow it out but the curls and the poofiness become to much after a few months. If I just deal with it and let it grow, will my hair ever straighten out on its own?

nope, it wont st8ten coz your hairs naturally grows like that. you can however make it liveble by using pomade or wax and just let your hair the way it should be. but if it drives you crazy and you want just a day or to to have it straight, get a flat iron.
