How long will straightening my hair last?

I just bought a Chi flat iron and I have very thick, medium length hair. I was wondering how long it takes to straighten your hair yourself, with the flat iron and how long the straighten lasts? I normally wash my hair everyday, should I change to washing it every other day?

How long will straightening my hair last?

I wash my hair every day because my hair is fine, and it will get greasy very easily if I dont. So, I do not straighten my hair very often - but when I do I have a good straightener (about like a Chi) and It takes me a little less than ten minutes or so. One of my friends has crazzzy curly hair, and it takes her two hours. I guess it depends on your hair.

How long will straightening my hair last?

Unless you live in a humid climate, the straightening should at least last for a day. Very thick, wavy hair generally has a mind of its own and doesn't react too well to straightening. Besides, the excessive heat of the flat iron might damage the hair, so I wouldn't straighten it too often. There's no guarantee that it will stay straight if you wash it less frequently, so I don't think that is necessary. If you want straight hair all the time, your hairdresser can straighten it with chemical processes, and that will last as long as a perm.

How long will straightening my hair last?

well what i would do is use the CHI heat protectant that you could buy at Kroger or Ulta on damp hair.

then use Paul Mitchell Skinny Serum on the damp hair too.

this will also protect heat.

when you straighten it right, it should last all day.

you should wash your hair every day to get the products out, otherwise your hair will have product build up in it =\

straighten your hair in 2 inch sections.

when you do this it should take about 20 minutes!

what will help speed the process of straightning would be to blow dry your hair straight then straighten it so it doesn't take as much time =]

hope i helped!

i wash my hair every 2-3 days and blowdry and straighten it.. blow drying and straight ironing your hair every day will break it.. also the nature oils from your scalp are very healthy and conditioning for your hair. but, dont let it go for too long because you dont want to look like a greasy ball, lol.

How long will straightening my hair last?

My hair is very thick and down to the middle of my back, it is also very very curly. When I straighten it I have to start the whole process the night before so my hair will dry overnight, because I don't use a hair dryer. In the morning when my hair is completely dry it will take me anywhere from 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours to straighten it. When I do straighten it I will usually go 2-3 days without washing it, because of how harsh the straightening process is. A hairdresser told me that it's best to wash your hair only every other day anyway if your hair is damaged or very dry. My hair stays straight until the next time I wash it. I have found some of the best stuff to help the straightening process with a flat iron at Sally's Beauty Supply.
