Straight Hair

I definitely know what you mean. I have really thick boofy hair and leaving the house with my hair down unstraightened is not an option – it is terrible. But having two small kids means it is hard to find time to blowdry my hair straight then straighten it. I only straighten it twice a week max – I am lucky that it usually lasts me 3 days which is good.

Does anyone else have the problem of waking up in the morning and their hair is kinked from sleeping on it. I hate it, especially if I have straightened it the day before, have to sometimes redo sections of it.

I even sometimes refuse to go to the gym at night if I have straightened it during the day – it will get a ponytail kink it in – my husband thinks it`s a pathetic excuse!

Daniellelouise1, I agree, I have been letting mine slide more lately, only once or twice a week for me. I noticed my hair was getting a bit straw like probably from too much straightening but I don`t use that heat protector spray.

I go through stages of wanting straight or curly hair – my hair is naturally wavy – sort of beachy wavy – which I love. And now that it`s quite long – I just don`t have the time or patience to straighten it! Would litearlly take me an hour – I have a lot of hair! These days I just wash, let dry naturally, and at most just use my straightener to fix up my side fringe.

i`m not really a fan of doing my hair up..so i straighten my hair most days.. but every now an then i like to use my straightner to make my hair wavy.. or i`ll use it to flick back parts of my hair for something different.

It olny takes me 5-10 minutes to do mine and i do it every 2nd day, it doesn`t really bother me at all, depends what mood i am in weather i want to have a straight day or a curly/wavy day

Yep i know how you feel Daniellelouise1! sometimes i get so sick of doing it- mine takes ages to heat up. then you have to go through all the sections. my hair has a natural wave in it, so now i just straighten my fringe or tie it back

I straighten my hair 2 or 3 days or nights a week but that`s it and I only ever do it for a change in looks. My hair is naturally curly and wavy so if I straighten it anymore than I do now it would become dry and brittle.
When I do straighten my hair it takes a good hour and that`s with a large ceramic one so that alone puts me off doing it on a daily basis.

I only straighten my hair rarely… It really is much too much effort to do daily. Not only that, but I think my hair`s in much better condition since I`ve cut back on the regular straightening.
