i know this might be discussed a few times, but im an asian guy with thick hair. i've been growing my hair out, and the hair on my sides stand out. i thought that as my hair grew out, it would go down. but i was wrong, as my thick hair makes it stand outwards. the hair all around my head also stands because of it's thickness. im a little new to this, so i don't really know what to do with my hair.d i've tried gelling it down a few times, doesn't look good. every morning in the shower, i use a neutrogena anti-dandruff, and then i use a shampoo + conditioner. after i blow dry my hair. so what can i do/stop doing to make my hair thinner, or not stand up? |

you can grow it longer... longer hair will eventually weigh the hair down, just be patient you can relaxed it..... relaxed with a hair straightner chemicals, these chemicals soften hair shaft, it works with most asian hair. use cream instead of gel.... gel will make your hair stiff, cream will soften it. ------------- ARGHH |

You can try. Maybe comb it while you're working on it, so that the hair doesn't clump. HTH ------------- http://anaissatin.livejournal.com">  my LJ , 40 inches long

| I dont think there's much you can do about it other than the advice everyone said. my hair used to be long and thick and I wanted it soft, but the only thing you can do is condition it a lot but when it gets dry it will be hard again. |

| yeah, i condition it too and it gets real soft, and then it gets dry again. i guess the only real thing i can do is wait a few months. my hair won't weigh straight down like i want it do, but it'll go down i guess |

worse comes to worse, you can get extensions to the length you want and only worry about your "real" hair which is just a few inches around your face.

don't worry ,i'm also a asian with thick hair. i also have the same problem as you last year.....it looks really ugly when it stands out at the side, but wait a few more months, then it will go down. now i like my hair, it really fit my style , i will never cut my hair short again.

o god
my mom convinced me to go thin out my hair after i did it, it looked HORRIBLE the guy gave me wax to style it with but its just horrible i should've never even thought about doing this.. now i have to wait for it to grow out again  if it even grows out the same way
it really looks like it's just been cut shorteri shoulda listened to ya the thick hair actually looked really nice it stuck out in the back, and the sides werent really sticking out anymore but yeah.. i don't have to repeat how horrible it really looks note to people wanting to grow out their hair: NEVER THIN IT! |
