can you guys help me with my hair?

I got a Solia flat iron because my hair has never stayed straight and Solia flatirons get up to 450 degrees so i thought it would keep my hair straight but it doesnt. Solia gets quite a bit hotter than chi but is hotter better with flatirons?Would a Chi work better maybe???

How about that Japanese Ionic Hair straightening they have? It's like $100 a pop around here. Check with your stylist.

Re: can you guys help me with my hair?

If you hair isn't staying staight after you iron it than you should try a product that helps control frizz like KMS "Flat out" just be carful it can make your hair very oily. I personally like the irons made by Metropolis, try this link http://www.nextag.com/metropolis-flat-iron/search-html

They get very hot but work very well. It sounds like you need a product for shine. This type of product will help seal the hair from humidity which will frizz it out and/or make it wavey again.

The Japanese hairstaightener will make you hair fall out in chunks. So unless you have a lot of hair to spare I would not do it.

Re: can you guys help me with my hair?

I agree with scottnmaria, I would use a good hair product. You need a straightening serum, and then a smoothing lotion with anit frizz something that humidity won't effect. Use everything sparingly if you are using mulitple produts or you can end up looking like you have dirty oily hair. My hair tends to look like Peter Frampton Live if I don't use the right products. I like Pureology hair products they also offer a product you can spray that has UV protection. I figure I spend enough on my hi/low lights I don't want to damage my hair more.

I use a waffle iron. Can't complain about the results.

Get a ChI flat iron. The newest is chi nano, it's light blue and works wonders. I have extremly curly hair, and it makes it straight as aboard. You will have to get it from a beauty salon, or ebay.
