I'm also a Cosmetologist so I have experience in hair, skin care and make up and more. I've seen the 2 threads you've posted, and to be honest with you, most of the answers aren't true. I understand that you were trying to help, therefore, I commend you for your effort. I don't have the time to provide all the answers on the threads because I have to go out now, but I'm going to provide some correct answers on here.


They have different mouse's for every type of hair. It's best to apply gel or mouse to damp hair working it through the hair and concentrating it on the ends of the hair. You can allow it to dry naturally or blow dryer it to get a smooth sleek finish. If you apply mouse to dry hair, it will only make your hair look sticky.


There are 3 types of pincurls, On Stem, Half Stem and Full Stem. The "On Stem" pincurl is used to create maximum strength and curl from the scalp. The "Half Step" pincurl achieves maximum mobility because the hair contains a sufficient amount of curl and strength to move into various lines of design. The "Full Stem" pincurl achieves a blending effect. It is used to for specific motions and movements.

Thermal curling irons should be kept clean and free from rust band carbon. To remove dirt or grease, wash the irons with a soap solution containing a drop of ammonia. This cuts the oil, rust and grease that usually adhere to the irons.

When you set your hair with rollers, it's recommended that you do a "comb out" with a cushion paddle brush. And you brush the hair in a general pattern desired. Then you back comb it by taking one section at a time, placing the proper lines, ridges, volume, and indentations into the hair.

Prematurely gray hairs and gray hairs around the temples and hairlines are resistant to color or quicker to lose color than other gray hairs. It could take up to 45 minutes to color resistant gray hairs. You should give gray hairs more time to absorb color.

Brushing the hair stimulates blood circulation and gives the hair sheen. Hairbrushes made of natural bristles are recommended for hair brushing.

It's better to apply pincurls on wet hair. First, you set the pincurls on wet hair, then you give it time to dry by placing the client underneath the hair dryer. When the hair is dry, you remove the pincurls and mold the hair into the pattern that you've designed. The pincurls will last you for days.

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_9_16.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZN) Take it from an almost 56 year old former hair styler (from 18 to 20) - PrettynPetite1 knows what she's talking about and I would take her advice any time. There has been much new technology since 'my' time, and I appreciate her advice any and all times. I absolutely agree never to apply mouses or curl hair when dry, as it causes damage. Another suggestion to clean appliances with is Quick n' Brite - which is biodegradable and does a good job cleaning as well.

I regularly use a ahir straightner. My hair is fine for the moment, but I was wondering if you had any tips for keeping it health. I don't want my hair to dry out!!! I would hate it if I lost the shiny healthy look.

;) First of all I use mousse. I dry my hair.Then I put some on my strands and roll my hair up. Sometimes I use beer. Other times I use jello. All work. Or you can apply mousse to wet hair, blow dry and don't set it. Whatever way you choose. My sister in law pin curls her hair. It looks gorgeous. She washes her hair then takes sections, and wraps each one around her finger. Next secures it with a boby pin. Or she uses setting gel in place of water. Blow dries it for 20 mins. Brushes it out with a boarshead brush. My hair dresser told me you don't need to brush your hair 50 times or 100. It isn't necessary. Just bend at the waist and let your hair fall. Now brush about 25 times. Blood will rush to your head and cause good circulation. Do not brush hair while it's wet. Use a wide tooth comb instead.

I use the mascara wand on my grays around my ears. Works great. Covers nice. Will wash out when you shampoo. You'll have to reapply. she told me that one to. Even men can use it.

Hey guys, this is the perfect thread to ask this question, since we have some cosmotoligists on the boards, which is so cool.

Any way I have naturally wavey hair and its very thick. For the past few years I have kept it short with some layers and when I style it I either scrunch it or hot curl it. Now, Im growing long again, probably to my mid back. But I really like styling it. And it seeems that layers help when my hair was short. But How about long? When I had it long in the past, It was one length and even though I scrunched it and hot curled it, It kinda hung there and tended to frizz and poof out. I can't straighten it because it takes about an hour and a half. And it never looks right when its straight. What kind of style could I get after it grows out and still be able to curl it without it looking blah? I hope someone can give me some advice, im at a loss.

:) I'd do a double french twist, a single french twist, or twist it all the way up the head.Then I would do love locks and the top, and let it hang. Or do two or three ponies up it, or a bun, or love locks all over the head or french braids, or braids, or a flip up. :) You have a choice of beauties.

DJ, I will give you some tips on how to keep your hair healthy and shiny when your using hair straighteners. When you wash your hair make sure to use a good condition. While hair is wet you use a frizz control product. Blow dry hair until hair is 100% dry. You are just removing the moisture, so there is no need to straighten your hair at this point. That comes later. Once hair is completely dry, draw thin sections of hair through flat iron slowly, but keep the iron moving. Comb hair smooth after each draw through of the iron. Continue until all of your hair has been straightened.

When your hair is completely straighten put a small amount of serum in the palm of your hand then rub your palms together and work it through the hair to keep it sleek and smooth.

Bizygurl, use a leave-in conditioner when you wash your hair, it will make it easier to manage. For best result it should be combed, not brushed. If possible let it dry naturally, or you can use a diffuser attachment on your blowdryer so you hair wont get frizzy. If you want to try out some new styles. Add some serum to your hair to give it shine and softness before styling. You can do a Chignon, French Braid/Pleat, Bun and Updo styles. You may also want to ask your hairstylist to show you how to do these styles so that way you can maintain it on your own.

Thanks pretty, Those are some good tips. I will start combing it rather than brushing it. I heard about that but I was never sure what was better to do, comb or brush. I never blowdry my hair, because It will frizz like something awful even when I put leave in conditioner or hair serum. Do you know of any good leave in conditioners or anti frizz serums that work really well? i really appreciate the advice.

My mum has the very same problem - she uses 'Friz Ease' and it works a treat. I have used 'Friz Ease' products - they have a huge range and they are brilliant. I think they even do conditioners too - possibly even a leave in conditioner - If I remember correctly - it was recommended to us by a very highy respected hair dresser in my area.

No worries just glad I could help!!!
