Tednol, dforster and imasillynarb: Dax Wax is the daddy!

Last summer I sometimes used common automotive grease in my hair. When I didn't have anything to wipe my hands on after working on my bike, I wiped my hands on my hair. The Dax/grease mixture does wonders. It does a satisfying job and smells surprisingly nice. I haven't used grease for a few months now.

ok....ive picturing you shoving your hand into the middle of an engine here and then vigorously rubbing your hair (correct me if wrong)...stick with the red mate...you dont need anything else brother....daxwaxred will show you the way......remember its not a wax...in the words of our brother tednol....its a lifestyle choice.
I used to use dax but i don't like the way it feels in my hair. Just too greasy or something.

I use L'Oreal Paris Out Of Bed, which gives a 'lasting messed up effect'. It is total quality.

do you use ghds! use hairspray or tigi shine cream, and make sure you use heat protection spray b4 you straighten or you can use hair spray instead b4 you use the straightners which makes your hair more rigid (ok not the right word) but it stays straight better... I've never known a guy who uses hair straightners apart from on TV, it looks cool though

yeah, i t depends on what straightenenrs you use. I use GHD ceramic ones, and holy crap, youcould go out in the windiest weather and yo would still come out with straight hair. However, i used to use babyliss steam and shine...(pile of crap!!)

as for hari products...the TIGI sexed up range is great..as well and charles worthingtons takeaways straightening bal,.

Dont use wax, its not meant for keeping the hair straight. before you stragihten, apply a SMALL amount of the straightnening balm, straighten, and i guarantee your hair wont go curly until it gets wet. :wink:

My mum and dad close friends son has straightners, he once straighten my hair for me, I've never been so freaked out in the whole of my life! (my hair was really curly though!)

Hmm, i use elizabeth arden eight hous cream on my hair! its for your face but it looks great, mixed in with a bit of de-frizz! And of course a bit of hea protection...

how did you discover that i wonder! i never use face creams because I have sensitive skin but maybe I'll get some for my hair :biggrin:

EDIT: If I use more conditioner my hair goes straight and calmer but I don't like it - I prefer it a bit mad... I guess I'll never be happy :smile: my hair also depends on how I'm feeling, it has it's own personality!

The fucking ponce who styled my hair last time used straighteners (when my hair isn't even curly) and i looked like some boy band loser! He was french and had a terrible english accent so I wasn't sure what he was doing it until it was too late. Needless to say, I immediately plastered it in Tigi and restyled myself :biggrin:
If I were you, I'd stick with your curly hair - just make sure you visit your hairdresser fairly regularly :P Overgrown curly hair looks crap.

Hmm.. elizabeth arden is like a thick gel, I have terrible skin, extremely sensitive so i use that and my skin is fine, i now have no spots aswell.

How did i discover it, I was appying it had some excess on my hands, my fit foster person came in (sadly he is not staying with us, only a weekend thing!), so i pushed my hands through my hair and wella, my hair look good!
