straighten their hair when it's already straight?
I understand if your hair is curly,
but I know girls who have pretty straight hair,
and after they straighten their hair,
you cant tell a difference. mellow.gif

... I tried straightening my hair and nobody noticed a difference,
at all,
even though I pointed out that I straightened one side
and the other was left untouched. cry.gif

they're just not satisfied with how straight their natural hair is, so they just use the straightener to make them feel better.

well i dunno why but i guess it's cause like when you straighten your hair it kinda shine a little. and like if you have straight hair but it's pooffy then straightening your hair might help _unsure.gif

People notice when I straighten my hair.

I only do it in the morning after I wake up, after my hair is really weird and sticking up in strange places. And only the ends, too. If I ever straightened my ENTIRE HEAD, I'd look like a freak. My bangs would be all wonky.

When I don't, it usually looks messy, a little frizzy and wavy (in a bad way) at the ends. When I straighten my hair, the ends look waaaay tamer and...well, straighter.

Sometimes, though, when I'm in a good mood, I take out a round brush and curl my hair slightly with a hair dryer to substitute for hair straightening. So...it's either going to be super straight, or deliberately wavy.

i have pretty straight hair, but i still straighten it sometimes.
straightening it helps prevent frizz as well... and sometimes even when you have straight hair, your ends curl up if you have layers (even if you don't).

I think curly hair is great. Why would you want to make your hair straight (well, besides doing it up?). I have really straight hair, and I've always thought wavy hair looked cool.

Erm.... well, I had "straight" hair, only it was like wavy in some parts and it bugged me, so I straightened it out... then my hair just kinda got more and more wavy... so now sometimes I set it as curly, and sometimes I just full on straighten it... so ya

but I think taht girls who have like really straight hair and then straighten, probably are just trying to get rid of wave or whatever... to some people having nice hair is looking good... and looking good provides confidence??

Actually, blow-drying your hair isn't for straightening purposes. I blow-dry my hair because I can't stand wet hair.

My hair is naturally straight, but I straighten it because it gives it a more styled look and my layers stand out so much more. It just looks more polished.

eh I don't get it. I do everynow and then when I get bored enough. I have a lot of body in my hair, so people can see a big difference on me, but if I just had normal straight hair I wouldn't bother with it..


Straightners supposedly make your hair shiny though, that could be why.

My so-called best friend always had straight hair, but it was a little bushy. So she flat irons it with her mom's professional straightener, and it looks the same...just a little less poofy.

Same here. But I rock that look. I'm totally used to it now, but it would still be easier to take care of if it was straight.
