Aye, question for the wise counsel
- I cut my own hair
- I wont pay a professional to cut my hair
- My hair tends to be too “poofy”
- Im kinda lookin for a kurt cobain type long to the chin, even length all around style
- Hair is mostly straight just a tiny bit wavy The question; Is there a product to get my hair to lay down flattish without a “wet” look rather than poof up like a down comforter.
Aaannnd spin the wheel. Thanks peeps.
Some folks iron their hair with a heated electrical device called a straightener. You could try one. I don’t think they are expensive. Read all of the directions and be careful. YouTube is maybe useful here, too.
A chemical treatment called a relaxer can also help do what you want, but proceed with great caution. I understand not wanting to pay for hair care. I cut my own as well. But, some things are best left to a pro. Relaxers are alkaline, and chemical burns are easily possible. Some may contain formaldehyde, which is nasty stuff. Long-term use is probably a bad idea, IMHO.
Before using a straightener (or a curling iron, but that’s like the opposite of what OP wants), check out some videos of people straight up burning their hair off by using them wrong.
That’s not to discourage anyone from using them, they’re great tools. Just like, be careful
