well, my hair is already straight, but the tips/ends aren't? i dont know, its weird. but i want my hair to be pin straight. is there any way i can do that without damaging my hair? the other day i went to cvs with my mom and bought herbal essences .. the pin straight one x) it doesnt work lmao. i kinda knew it wouldnt, but i wanted to try it anyways xD

i also wanted to get some cheap hair straightener (i figured, since its only the ends that aren't straight, why spend $50+ on one?) and yes, i know that damages your hair but i really want pin straight hair x) but i dont know which kind is good/bad?

ideas? suggestions? :/

meh, it's straight for a week after i get it razored, then my ends tend to curl however they like. my hair used to be super straight before i started getting it razored. word what gigi said, you do not want to straighten your hair when it's wet because that's pretty much steaming your hair and your hair isn't a fabric.

i use the chi to straighten my ends but i didn't buy it. you don't need to spend 100 dollars on a straightener especially for your ends, but i'd suggest you buy one less than $50 dollars, one in the $20 and above range.

also, there was one of the brands i didn't like... i'm positive it was revlon.

Same. FREEBIES4LYFE.


I would suggest buying a straightening serum, such as Paul Mitchell's Super Skinny Serum, put it on your ends and straighten it. Just make sure you're not crushing your hair when you straighten it - that makes your hair more frizzy and less likely to be pin-straight.
