[christiee_nax]

You could use a straightener but those can damage your hair. Maybe you could try those straightening products. Never really tried them because mines naturally straight but some of my friends use it and works for them.

[hpsm2]

A straightening iron doesn't work on my hair caues my hair is really thick... Asian hair? ALright.. I'm asian but I don't have "asian hair"

[courtiekinz]

if you would like to do your hair straight sometimes.. enough times, than its worth it to buy a straigtening iron.. Don't bother with the crappy ones.. I've had many.. if you want really straight hair, stay away from silver plate straigteners.. gold plated aren't amazing, but the best are deffinietly ceramic hair straighteners.. they tend to be more expensive, but do a hell of a job! Also, if you have curly hair, when you get out of the shower, quickly towel dry your hair, but don't rub it too much, the towel will leave your hair messier, and more prone to frizzies.. buy a straigntening balm (walmart.. shoppers) and rub it throughout your hair when it's wet. brush it out.. and either blowdry, or dry naturally.. then flat iron it out baby!

get a straightener from longs or something. i sugest revlon, that is liek 30 but all the other ones are only 15-30

some/most asians naturally have straight/flat hair.

[honeyally]

Well my hair is naturally straight but it turns kinda curvy for a few days after I tie it into ponytail... so I think that leaving your hair down as much as possible helps.

[aubbob]

straight perm!!!!
go for it. i did. i loved it. about $200
it was worth it for me.
straightening irons damage your hair even more...

[maryissa]

I'm Asian, but i have really thick hair. And my hair is wavy.
But i can get it straight after using this one condition or just being in the sun. Ya, weird.
I tried the straightening iron, but i dont like those they damaged my hair with spit ends. bleh. And the hair dries up.
This one teacher at my school started straightening her hair when she was little. Its dried and its looks nasty when she doesnt straighten it.

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

... This topic is over 2 yrs old. I dont think the topic starter is comin' back anytime soon. And I think she could have figured by now to just get a flat iron/straightner to do it.

[*iNyCxShoRT*]

Well even if this is 2 years old: Use a straightener?

[kimmytree]

haha, just use a straightner. i have to everyday.

trust me though, a straightning perm doesnt work. at least for me and my sister it doesnt. lol

[AnnahhbeL]

i have mad straight hair, caus ei was born that way.

go to a hair salon and ask for "magic straight"
the price is measured by your hair length.

[xABERHOLiCx3]

well i'd perfer you use a straightener. most of you are like, "ok we know it straightens, but my hair doesn't cooperate with that!" Try it First! If that doesn't work try chemical straightening, available at most hair salons. If it's not available at yours, ask your stylist where you could find such services. Look around the internet and search it online.
Then, if that still doesn't work then i'd perfer the chemical straightening. It's not always $300, it depends on the hair's well volume. It depends on how curly it is, and how tough / how much magic straight they'd have to use. It's a really hard chemical that's brought from Japan/Korea, so even if you have just a tiny bit of ferocious hair, still expect high prices. I suggest blowdrying your hair after you shower though, even if it gets puffy. The next day just straighten it and it should be good. Also, when your in the shower, to get extra shiny hair, conditioner your hair once, rinse it out, then condition it again. 2 times should be the maximum times you conditioner your hair in that one shower, though.
Hope That Helps!

Morrocan Oil.
I think I spelled that wrong.
but it's very expensive, like $40.
Oh well, it makes hair really straight and shiny after flat ironing it!
(:

[xCANDiiESx]

get a your hair permanently straightened. thats what i did :)

[TheExoticPeachFa...]

I am Asian and I have more than pin straight hair. But I also help out my friends with their hair.

You have too cute of a face for that style. Not that the style isn't attractive, I just think it isn't you. That KiraPika example would possibly look good on you though.

I agree since her hair is so short and so is the girl [in the yellow is almost the same length].

some/most asians naturally have straight/flat hair.

That is not always true. There are Asians with thick hair, curly, wavy and not to mention extremely straight hair. It all depends on your parents. You inherit the hair that they have.

1. I suggest that she get a straightener check out the prices on the Internet [sometimes they are cheaper than the places where you live].

2. I may not suggest a relaxer. It has side effects to it.

[freeridefight]

seriously we needed a topic about this?
Go get it chemically straightened (japanese hair straighter) or just go over more than once with a hair straightener or use john frieda's hair straightener serum.

thanks <3

I wouldn't blow dry it. It would give it volume....but not help with straightening.

I would get a ceramic flat iron (straightener), a great brand would be Chi.
So you don't damage your hair, use V05 Extreme Reworkable Molding Putty and V05 Extreme Heat Defense Spray (its like- $3.oo at WalMart >.<) http://www.vo5.com/products/

If the flat iron cannont be used on wet hair, let your hair air dry. Then Put in the putty.....then spray your hair with the Defense sray. Then its simple-- straighten your hair with the flat iron.

after that- use your choice in hairspray.
Tada! Straight "asian" hair!! :D

Chi straighteners can be very expensive sometimes.
Check out this site for some other great ones:: http://www.folica.com/appliances/straightener.htm
--it also has a "how to use a flat iron" guide towards the bottom.

P.S:: if you do choose to blow dry it- put in hairspray or the Heat Defense Spray to protect your hair from being damaged.

i hope this helps!

[coconutter]

I suggest brushing it out and naturally letting it dry straight with a bit of straightening product in it, then once it's dry put some heat protection product in it to keep it shiny and less frizzy. Then flat iron it!

Viola!

[PCDKitty]

Get a chi

[xSybarite]

Invest in a quality straightener, like GHD, and straighten your hair. It's probably not giving you the results you want right now because you have a crappy straightener.

[asiaface]

Wow this got lots of replies...hah.
But yeah I agree with what most of those people were saying, any ceramic hair straightener will work good but chi is a very popular brand. They're expensive though....I have a wigo and it works really well. It cost me $70 online.
Anyways, you can find lots of different "hair straightening sprays" or whatever you want to call them at just about any salon.
All you do is (well, read the instructions of course) spray it on (usually) dry hair and it'll protect your hair from heat damage.
Personally, I like the brands "S Factor" and "Beyond the Zone".
And you can look at my hair on my profile...it's really straight...
It's naturally curly though.
Soo yeah. :)

Chi iron and biosilk...perfect combo for super straight "healthy" hair
