Will hair straightening work with my type of hair?

I am 17 years old.

My hair is very, very dry, curly, and frizzy, it makes me look very old.

When I staighten my hair with a iron it gets really frizzy, but still looks better than my original hair.

I went to a hair stylist about 6 months ago,, and I showed them pictures of what I want my hair to look like and they said they can do it.

I told my Mom and she insisted I go to another hair stylist.

This new hair stylist refused to straighten my hair, saying only black people get that done.

She said it might fry my hair.

So instead, they cut and died it, the dye came out very white and people always said I had gray highlights.

My hair is about long enough to get the style I want.

My Mom is telling me now that I can't get it done. It's immpsoible.

Something so little made me so mad, because I always hated my hair and when the lady said they can give me that style it made be so, soooo happy.

Now my Mom is telling me it's immposible and they just want to steal my money,

I know you said you tried an iron, but before you get it chemically relaxed, I would suggest going to a beauty product store (NOT a grocery store or anything that doesn't SPECIALIZE in beauty) and finding the best iron. I would recommend ceramic or ionic. The ionic ones can get up to $80, and the ceramic one I have is $40, but it is so worth it cuz it works so well. Also try using a straightening gel or spray when you use the iron, that should help too. If you do decide to get it relaxed, DON'T do it yourself, go to a stylist. Tell your mom you would rather have it professionally done than risk hurting it, and that you have tried everything! Maybe if you make a point to pay for it yourself she will compromise with you. Good luck! :)

It's possible. My mom has the same hair. Curly. frizzy... The white woman's afro, pretty much. They can do it. She gets it permed monthly. Then she straightens it daily. I have naturally board straight hair, and with the straight perm and the treatments, which condition her hair to keep it soft and moisturized, it looks like mine. They can do it. You just have to get the right shampoos and conditioners. You should also get hair treatments done every few months.

Buy a CERAMIC straightener. Not a metal one. Metal ones fry your hair. The ceramic ones don't.

before trying anything drastic try straightening it w/ the Ultra Chi Ceramic Iron. i'm 14 and i have extremely curly, frzzy, hair too. but i'm not white. my parents are from india. so try that first, cause you don't want to lose all your hair or damage it beyond repair. it takes me a good hour and half. and actually right now i'm looking into easystraight. but if it takes you less than that then just stick to the iron. i'm just trying to find something different to cut down my time.

ok my hair used to look just like your saying your looked and i had a stylist that also would not do mine so i me and my mom found someone else it is not the best ides to perminately get it straighten but your stylist can do a relaxor mine is by CHI but you stylist may use another i will not damage your hair and if yoru stylist know what he or she is doing it will work now keep in mind that when you wach and dry your hair it will look the same culry frizzy hair but what this does is makes it soooooo much easier to straighten it used to take me 2 hours to do mine now it only takes about 15 mins one more thing if you get your hair highlighted or colored or anything you have to wait about a month before getting it highlighted something to do with the chemicals if you do it too close together it is not good for your hair

There are ways to straighten curly hair...I would recommend a relaxer. I am not sure what the ladies were showing you, but if you want your hair not to be dry try a hot oil treatment, or a deep conditioner at least once a week, also to straighten it make sure you are putting product on it. You are most likely drying it out, causing it to be worse when you straighten it, without product on it, also use a professional shampoo and conditioner to let with anti-frizz.

Why don't you just get some wrap lotion and blow dry your hair yourself. It may not be permanent, but it should work and you can save the bulk of your money.

Wash your hair with a detangling shampoo %26amp; use a good conditioner. After you rinse the conditioner out, while the hair is still damp, apply the wrap lotion and blow your hair dry. It should come out nice and straight without the high cost of a salon style.
