My once straight hair turned wavy?

When I was younger and up through high school I had very straight hair, never had to use a flat iron. I used to wear my hair long about waist length then I cut my hair to shoulder length and begin using a flat iron to make it even straighter. When i entered college I didn%26#039;t have time to flat iron my hair so I started %26quot;scrunching%26quot; my hair w/ gel...now i don%26#039;t do anything to my hair just wash and condition, air dry and go but it%26#039;s become wavy not straight...what happened? did I damage my hair? is it just genes? can I get it to go straight again w/o using a flat iron??

Enjoy it. Wavy hair is beautiful.
Reply:Your hair probaly turned wavy becuase you have laid on your hair while laying or sleeping.
Reply:its not a bad thing, you didnt damage it. if you grow it out again it would probably get straighter, but that does happen, no worries though:)

Damage from hair products and tools can cause breakage, resulting in a %26#039;wavy look%26#039;.


Hormones play a part in hair also. (pregnancy reeks havoc on hair).





You should get it trimmed, and use a deep conditioner. You can use a blowdryer to straighten it as opposed to a flat iron.





Or you can use %26quot;straight stuff%26quot; hair products.


You can go to a salon and have them to a %26#039;relaxer%26#039; treatment. (what they use to reverse perms) but those can be damaging to hair as well.
Reply:that happened to me too!





when i look at my pictures from when i was younger i had stick straight pretty hair





i used to scrunch my hair also, and then stopped like 4 years ago





but my hair is just wavy now!














i don%26#039;t think you can get it straight again, my mom says mines now wavy because i damaged it by dying it, and scrunching it and what not





but i personally love it!





as soon as i get out of the shower i just put a sea salt spray in my hair and scrunch it with my hands to define the waves even more and my hair looks amazing.








everyones going for the beachy waves look, embrace it!

Reply:When i was a baby i had natural curl hair like miley cyrus. I still have a little piece that are curly that i have to straighten. Put Then i got naturaly straight hair and now naturaly wavy. It is not genes and you did not damage it.When you cut it or grow it long it some how changes. I cant tell you why but it does.It seems when you have short hair it is curly and when you have long hair it turns wavy and if you have very long hair it is straight. This might not be true for all people but I say grow it out and it will go back to naturaly straight hair. Le classique said embrass the beachy look gurl. Work your hair and make the gurls jealous! I never dyed,scrunch, but i do use flat irons,curling iron all those! I think it is the heat that damaged it. Heat can kill the skin cells faster and then make it change. All cells are different.It might be genes if your parents had curly hair then yes maybe.

Reply:Wow. I can relate.. except opposite lol I used to have really curly hair, and then straight and now in between.. wavy.


Don%26#039;t worry, it%26#039;s not damage. My hair does that, too. If you do your hair a certain way, your hair will start to catch on and follow the trend. It could be partially genes. But also, when your hair is longer, there is more weight to pull it straight. When it%26#039;s short, there is less weight... so then it can... curl.. or... bounce, ya know?


If you%26#039;re looking to straighten everyday, put in some serum or spray, blow-dry while dragging your fingers through however you like it styled in the end(part-wise). Then straighten. My hair is the same length as yours and I made sure to get a good hair cut. Get some shorter layers and thinned out a bit with even shorter layers(razored) underneath for added volume. It takes me 20 minutes to blow dry and straighten my hair. But you do have wavy hair... so celebrate it! You can go curly quite easily too... just by using your straightener! Also, you can add the odd bit of wave with your straightener and it makes it look like your hair naturally does that. Plus, it%26#039;s a great summer look. I haven%26#039;t totally mastered that one yet, but my friend has and her hair always looks amazing. Good luck, hun!
