Caring for thick hair can be daunting. Adequate tools and media must be used to cope with their volume and propensity to push. To make it easier to care for your hair, choose the right haircut. Seek advice from a hairdresser to help you choose a hairstyle for your hair texture and face shape.

Steps

Part 1 of 3: Use the Right Tool

1. 1 Use a brush to detangle your hair. Most detangling brushes (you may come across the name "detangler") have short, flexible bristles that will not pull out hair, which also makes them suitable for brushing wet strands. You can buy such a brush from your regular makeup store or online.
   • Brushing damp hair with a flat brush will create tangles and frizz.
2. 2 Try not to use regular hair ties. Thick hair is easily knocked out from under smooth elastic bands. Instead, buy elastic bands that are thin and flat, wrapped in fabric or tied with thread, which makes them less slippery. Some fashionable hair ties stretch quickly, and simple hair ties can overtighten or damage your hair. Look for special rubber bands that securely hold in place but don't damage or break your hair.
   • You can buy special rubber bands at a cosmetics and perfume store or online.
3. 3 Use invisibility correctly. Spray hairspray on the bobby pins and pin them with the wavy side down to keep the hair in place. You don't have to use more invisibility than necessary, just take your time and use them to pin your hair in the right places.
4. 4 Blow dry your hair with a suitable hair dryer. Pay attention to the ionizer and the power rating if you are going to dry your hair in a fast setting. For less damage to your hair and less frizz, choose a hairdryer with an ionization power of at least 1800 watts. You can purchase this type of hair dryer at a hardware or hairdressing store.
5. 5 Use nail polish and a suitable brush to keep your hair from sticking out. Spray a little hairspray on the brush. You should not get the brush too wet - you only need a little varnish so that the hair does not become electrified, the cuticle scales are closed and individual strands do not break out. To avoid harsh strands from too much hairspray, brush your hair from the inside out, not from the crown.
   • Conventional brushes electrify hair, so it's best to use a boar bristle brush, which helps distribute natural grease along its entire length, removes static and adds shine.
   • You can use a smoothing agent instead of hairspray to help the brush glide easily through your hair. Remember to grab only a section of hair that is no wider than the brush itself at a time.
6. 6 Choose the right brushes for different purposes. There are a number of hair styling tools that you can use depending on the desired result. Choose one of the following brushes:
   • The oval padded brush is suitable for detangling dry hair, adding shine or combing. It should not be used on wet hair.
   • The wooden round brush is best used to add volume after blow-drying or to smooth hair. Don't use it to style straight bangs.
   • The ceramic round brush is useful for straightening hair, especially for naughty curls or bangs. Do not use it on damaged or brittle hair.
   • Use the flat rectangular brush to detangle damp hair. Keep in mind that brushes of this type with balls on the teeth very quickly deteriorate.
   • The semi-circular brush is used when styling a smooth bob that should follow the shape of the head, or for styling bangs when drying. Don't use it on long hair.

Part 2 of 3: Use the Right Products

1. 1 Choose a concentrated conditioner. Try not to use too much and pay special attention to its composition instead. Use a conditioner at a concentration that only a small amount is sufficient. Don't use a volume conditioner.
   • Apply a deep mask after every third shampoo or once a week, especially if the ends of your hair are badly damaged.In case of minor damage, it is enough to make such a mask once a month.
   • If your hair is soft and smooth, you need to keep it hydrated with a quality moisturizing shampoo and conditioner.
   • The main secret for soft and manageable hair is sufficient moisture. It's important to use a quality moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Moisturizing products should not weigh down your hair. Use an intense conditioner regularly. Products such as Macadamia Oil Deep Conditioning Treatment and SILKtage Rejuvenating Styling Serum are able to smooth even the toughest hair.
2. 2 Use products containing keratin in warm and humid weather. Due to the high humidity in the air, the hair is frizzy and frizzy. Keratin products cover the hair scales and smooth them out. Keratin spray can be used all year round. When using such funds, you should not rush - you need to carefully distribute them through the hair and let it work. SPECIALIST'S ADVICE

   "If you have thick wavy hair, keratin products can help minimize some of its natural frizzy tendencies."

3. 3 Blow dry your hair with your fingers. Very thick hair is difficult to dry. Blow dry your hair using your fingers instead of brushing until it is only 10 to 20 percent damp. Then dry them with the narrow smoothing nozzle.
   • This drying is best for wavy and straight hair. Put on the narrow nozzle on the hair dryer when you have 20-30 percent of your hair left to dry, otherwise you may open the cuticle scales too much and dry your hair.
4. 4 Try shortening the time it takes to dry your hair. If you have thick hair, you are probably already used to drying it becoming the main event of the day for its duration. If you prefer to let your hair dry naturally, speed up the process by wrapping your hair in a highly absorbent towel - it will be more effective than just blotting it out. If you're blow drying your hair, try using a hair primer to help shorten the time it takes to dry completely.
5. 5 Wash your hair overnight. Wash your hair half an hour before bed and let it dry naturally overnight. In the morning, style your hair with a curling iron. Divide into about 12 strands and run through each section with tongs to the very ends. This will create the desired effect in less time than it would have done in a hairdressing salon.

1. 1 Tie a bun at the top of your head so your hair doesn't look like you just woke up. The beam will save you from vortices and chaos on your head. Tilt your head, gather your hair and curl it into a ponytail. Use a smoothing agent to deal with unruly hair.
2. 2 Trim off some of the thick hair. Heavy hair can look lifeless. Ask your hairdresser to cut it in layers, starting at the middle of the length, to reduce stress on the roots and add fluffiness. Try not to do too many layers so that the hairstyle does not look like a triangle. SPECIALIST'S ADVICE

   If you are straightening your hair, consider thinning it. Arthur Sebastian, owner of Arthur Sebastian Hair Salon, says: “If you have thick wavy hair and you usually straighten it, ask your hairdresser to thin the bottom layer slightly with thinning scissors. If the volume is reduced, the hair will lie a little smoother. "

3. 3 Cascade your hair so it doesn't look like a helmet. Thick, medium-length hair is too bulky for a bob cut and may look like a helmet. If you choose a chin-length haircut, ask your hairdresser to make it livelier by adding a cascade. Use wax or balm to remove excess frizz. You will need a product that styles and weighs down your hair without sticking the strands together.
   • Check with your hairdresser to find the right product that will smooth your hair while flattering your hair.
4. 4 Use a suitable thinning scissors and razor to trim your hair. If these tools are used incorrectly, hair can be damaged or frizzy. If this has already happened before, inform the hairdresser about it. If your hair tends to frizz, use thinning scissors only at the ends.
   • Ask your hairdresser to thin your hair or cascade in another way if your hair has been damaged in the past with thinning scissors or a straight razor.
5. 5 Braid your hair. Check with your hairdresser for a braid hairstyle that suits your style, or find one online. Braids look great on thick hair and keep the volume in check. If your hair is frizzy and unresponsive, it is best to braid it for a neat look.
6. 6 Talk to your hairdresser. Together, you can choose a hairstyle that suits your hair type and face shape. A hairdresser can thin out your hair by removing small layers in the depth so that the hair is not as thick, but looks lush and uniform.
   • Look online or in magazines for photos to show your hairdresser as a starting point. Get inspired by celebrity hairstyles with the same hair type as yours.

Tips

• Never pass your hair through your fingers - this makes it stick out and puff up even more.
• Check hair product labels if you only prefer natural products or are allergic to certain ingredients.
