Its a 10 keratin treatment. Purple bottle gold top.
Also: every 3 days you shampoo and condition. Leave in the conditioner for 5 minutes then rinse. Do not use shampoo and conditioner with sulfates. If you need to wash between just condition (dont leave in for 5 min)
When its wet, spray in the its a 10. It's amazing. Comb through, allow to dry. If you have to blow dry to keep straight use a thermal protectant. I use Alterna Bamboo. It's cheap, it works.

This is what you want
That shampoo has sulfates in it.

If you added a gel it would hold. I like Jessicurl Spiralicious gel.
Edit: The CIGI also has silcones in it:https://www.amazon.com/TIGI-Catwalk-Curls-Rock-Amplifier/dp/B0007506U2
Having trouble finding ingredients on others but it seems like your stuff is not CG-approved. Changing could help your hair. You can check ingredients at https://www.curlsbot.com/
Edit2: Didn't think to check the hair mask, but also not CG-friendly. Has mineral oil in it. https://www.lorealparisusa.com/products/hair-care/products/hair-mask/elvive-extraordinary-oil-curls-re-nourish-mask.aspx?shade=extraordinary-oil-curls-re-nourish-mask
Have you tried sun-in? (I believe that's what it called). It has mild bleach in it and your will lighten gradually too if you use it over time.
Edit: here it is!
I have fine, thin dark brown hair. If I let it air-dry, it's a little wavy. If I blow dry it, it is mostly straight.

Pics of My Hair
Back in high school I had a Mohawk like that (though not as big) and I used a brand called Got 2b. It did what her hair is doing, folding in half and flinging back up

I don't have long, thin hair, but I do have major issues with flat hair due to buildup caused by hard water. Applying Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo to my roots before bed (and sometimes again in the morning), and using Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray after styling have been my saving graces. The Oribe spray is pricey, but one can lasts FOREVER (8+ months for me), smells amazing, and works incredibly well!
May I suggest a gift for your mother?
"Spray on hair" to hide her bald spot?
I would also suggest sending it directly from Amazon, while you're not there.
Thanks! You’ll really like this line, I think, it’s my HG now. Love your curls too!
Btw, you might use a spray bottle to refresh your hair between washing. These misters are really nice. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N7RLM7V?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_dt_b_asin_title
Hello my fellow thick haired sister. You're already doing a lot of things right but here's some additional stuff to try:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06WWBFRDR/
The first two products contain argan oil which will help soften and repair your hair, and the third contains keratin which will help repair and strengthen your hair and lock in moisture.
I've been growing my hair out for 3 years and for most of that I was completely neglecting my hair care. I finally stopped shampooing every day probably around a year ago and I finally started using deep conditioners and those leave in products in the last 2 weeks. In that short time my hair is already noticeably softer and less dry/frizzy, though I still have a lot of catching up to do to make up for all the neglect I put my hair through over the years.

.
I had three main priorities when starting out: it needs to be affordable on my absolutely miniscule budget (<$20 a month), it had to be low fuss, and it needed to be at least somewhat portable (I had somewhat frequent out of town Dr visits and visited family at least once a year). Once I got into looking for a routine that fit my needs I had to add some new priorities: it can't set my face on fire (dead common), it can't worsen my dryness (almost every face cleanser ever and some moisturizers), no one can ever know how much I've spent on my goddamn face, and ohmygod more oil, yes, I will bathe in it.
The first thing I got right was using a body lotion as a facial cream. Everything on the market for the face was: hideously expensive, hideously fragrenced, silicone-heavy, or some combination of all three, so I slapped some Kiss My Face Unscented Olive & Aloe Body Lotion on my face. It was too hydrophilic and made me look sweaty, so I mixed in some aloe vera, which worked a treat. Unfortunately Kiss My Face doesn't seem to make body lotion anymore, so I switched to Watkins.
I tried a few acids with okay results, but I really just need a way to get rid of dead skin without burning anything off, which meant silicic acid. I started out with a huge container of oxy pads (cut in half). The alcohol didn't dry me out much, but the waste of throwing out a half a pad every time drove me nuts. Now I use ANDALOU naturals Willow Bark Pure Pore Toner and a J-cloth pad I cut out.
Seabuckthorn oil is one of the things I got in my experimental poke-everything-and-see-what-happens stage. I started out just putting a couple drops on my fingers and massaging it into my face at night, but it got messy and tended to apply unevenly. I then mixed it into my face cream in my hand, but that was also messy and broke my no fuss tenant, so I started premixing it as a separate night cream, which, yes. It does sit a bit heavy though, so I've taken to spritzing theyer's on once it dries a bit.
Vacuum pump lotion bottles I got the 50ml bottles, but I'd recommend the 30ml bottles for size.
Misters I love these. I gave the pink one to mom for her rose scented theyers and she loves it too.
you realize than an extravert would do good to work on introvert skills, because you see the benefits of being an introvert, right? so you should work on the strengths of an extravert. that is step one.
1a. read this, and apply liberally. as an introvert, you're very perceptive. you will not lose this skill by developing your ability to be extraverted.
1b. check out /r/seduction and /r/askseddit. your friends don't know how to attract women. their female friends don't know what they're looking for. people who get their needs met up to their basest standards will not devote time to figuring shit out. don't become an asshole, but absorb information from these places, and see what rings true.
1c. go to /r/malefashionadvice and figure out what works for you. do you look like a chump? fix it. if you are uncomfortable dressing in a way that feels fake, figure out what doesn't feel fake. the main rule is appear like you take care in your appearance. this communicates that you are a thoughtful person, have a personal style, and are financially and emotionally stable. it also allows a woman to compliment you on an element of your style. something easy to start with is a $30 timex weekender or easy reader with a leather band. throw out all your old shitty shirts. if you're a t-shirt wearer, you can get designer t-shirts in bags at tj maxx/ross type stores.
1d. hello, /r/malegrooming. put some fucking hair mud in your hair. go to /r/wicked_edge and start shaving with a DE. take pride and care in your grooming. PM me for a <$100 starter kit (links to products, i'm not selling it). if you have pimples, handle them. cut your goddamned nose hairs.
1e. i recommend /r/Fitness, but they can be jerks. on a basic level, i would recommend being able to do body weight exercises like push ups, chin ups, crunches, squats. do some running, and some jumping jacks.
1f. get a hobby that you're excited about and want to yap incessantly about to the point of getting on people's nerves. i started fixed gear cycling, and i'm working on my bike, and it's loads of fun and just for me.
the second step is to just hang out with more people. we live in the 21st century, and you're 23. don't ask to be set up. it's silly. sub-points:
2a. go out and do things by yourself. smoke some weed, then go bike around the park at night. walk around a college campus and learn where all the cool spots are. go to an art museum. what you're doing is learning to be fun. do shit, and enjoy it. don't have it be just the consumption of media, either. go bowling.
2b. when you go out, talk to people. notice something funny? mention it to the person standing next to you. fat guy has a cool laptop? ask them about it. a girl has glorious tits? tell her you like her boots. especially if you start frequenting locations, you can start a conversation with someone who has a routine about how you see them there all the time and haven't introduced yourself.
2c. now that you're thinking of fun shit to do and talking to people, come up with something fun to do, and invite people you know. have fun. this can be going out somewhere. it can be making nachos and watching some nerdy movie. whatever.
2d. now that you've established a fun persona with your friends with positive associations, they might start inviting you. but people, especially naturally social people, often will forget about people. don't take it personally when they don't invite you. when someone mentions doing something with people, say "mind if i tag along?" or "dude, i should totally go to that." if they say no or whatever, go, "cool. let me know when something awesome happens."
and then you start talking to women and inviting them to do things one on one. so, a recap:
the thing about me as an introvert is i have a hard time putting myself out there with people, but that's bullshit. i'm just being a disingenuous asshole. my mom recently died, and i've just started talking to people and telling them what's going on and how i feel and what i'm thinking. it's so much better. no extra pain, and much better relationships with people. step 0 is quit being a withholding asshole. no offense.
It's probably the 6 cans of "Its Got2B Glued" Hairspray in the corner. Good grief...Also, kid looks like a young Anthony Kiedis.

I hope you see this because this is a huge tip that helped me. You have a winter skin tone, so pure colors, true red, true blue, black, jewel tones (like that hot pink top which you are ROCKING, btw) will look the best on you. http://selfishseamstress.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/picture-178.png%3Fw%3D490%26h%3D370 This is like an old idea from the 50's I think, but I really agree with it.
Also, one product I really like as far as makeup goes is http://www.covergirl.com/instantcheekbonescontouringblush this in peach perfection. I am also a winter and a little color on the cheeks really will help your face pop & can help give you a more feminine cheekbone. I'm sure there are youtube videos on how to apply.
I agree with the lady that said some sideswept bangs would look nice. They will help balance out your jawline. Also try parting your hair a little further over a la http://hrbangs.com/jessica-alba-side-bangs.jpg
Do you know how to tease your hair at all? If you have wavy hair, it helps give it a little poof to the side and back so that all your curls don't make it look flat on the top. You can look up teasing or backcombing to see how to do it or take your pretty butt down to a salon & tell them to show you. But don't go overboard. Not looking for scene kid, just a little extra volume on top.
Also with waves, a texturizing spray like this: http://www.amazon.com/Not-Your-Mothers-Beach-Texturizing/dp/B004UL0GTK/ref=sr_1_2?s=beauty&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1346617727&amp;sr=1-2&amp;keywords=beach+waves is your friend. And my favorite hairspray to finish with is good old aquanet. We're trying to get natural, not crunchy waves with these two products.
Last of all, congratulations on finding our true self & keep being you. If you want to try any of these tips but can figure them out, just let me know, and I'll be glad to do some videos and show you how! I have a lot of LGBTQ friends & even volunteer working with a couple of organizations that help with things like this, so let me know if even you just need to talk or whatever--be proud of who you are!
> Highlights for the lazy?
Here you go and you're welcome!
(sorry to interrupt this thread) I have the same feeling, and I haven't used the Marc Anthony product -- but I do have some good product suggestions.
I like using a volumizing mousse and/or a hair powder to give my hair grip and volume without a stitch of extra oiliness. I find that most thickening/styling creams tend to weigh my hair down, which makes my hair look fuller but fall flat later in the day. Root spray will do good things for me, but only in combination with something a little stronger.
I use a mousse nearly every time my hair is wet. If I want more volume or to do something when my hair is still squeaky-clean, I supplement with a powder/spray to give it the texture to hold. They are also good to fluff up your hair if/when it falls.
Favorite mousses:
Hair powder:
Texturizing spray: This stuff, sprayed at the roots, will fluff up any hair, any time. Works well for volume and for getting styles to hold.
Which hair spray are you using? Ive tried several kinds but Aquanet Extra Super hold (purple bottle) is hands down the best.
My process:
I hope some of this helps. My first couple shirts weren't too great, but experimenting has given me the process I typed out above. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate. :)
EDIT: Formatting.
It was this shit.
For a dry shampoo, I recommend two products: the first is the Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo, it is a good all-purpose dry shampoo for about fifteen dollars. It has a neutral, unisex scent that is far less offensive than the Batiste® one that's found in pharmacies everywhere. If you have an oily scalp and hair, I suggest the Klorane Dry Shampoo with Nettle - Oily Hair as its a little more heavy-duty.
About the leave-in conditioner, there are a few great ones under twenty dollars - and the great thing is that a bottle will last you at least six months (at least, if you use an appropriate amount and avoid overdoing it). A classic product is It's A Ten Leave-In Plus Keratin, an all-purpose leave-in spray that moisturizers, smooths and prevents breakage. If you're seeking something to add a bit more shine, Biosilk Silk Therapy and CHI Keratin Silk Infusion both strengthen and condition hair while leaving an appealing sheen. If you're looking for something that moisturizes and softens hair but leaves more of a matte finish, then Alterna Caviar Complete Correction Hair Cream is one of my favorite haircare products - bar none. Finally, if you're looking for something that isn't a serum or cream-texture like the four leave-in conditioners I listed, then I recommend the SACHAJUAN Leave In Conditioner which is a spray-on liquid leave-in conditioner that is very hydrating but still rather light; and it has a pleasant fragrance to boot.
All of the products I mentioned are around $15 - $25 dollars. Sorry about the essay, but I buy and experiment with a lot of haircare products so I like to give people options when it comes to which products to use. Hope this helps with what you're looking for!
Wow, this stuff is still being sold and actually has (mostly) good reviews. http://www.amazon.com/Good-Looking-Color-Spray-Black/dp/B0026SGLWK

Congratulations on your first 3d printer!
To start, I'd follow whatever instructions come with the printer. If they're half decent, it should get everything setup and communicating with your computer. Once you can control the printer and get it moving around with simple commands, you can actually get started.
The most important thing to get a good print is your first layer. It's the only thing holding the print down, and if it isn't right then nothing else will be. The three big things you'll need to get right are your z heights, your bed material, and chemical adhesion aid.
To set your z heights, first heat up your printer, then put a piece of paper between the extruder and the bed, and then home your z-axis. If you can slide the paper between the nozzle and bed while still feeling some resistance of the nozzle, your heights are probably good. If the nozzle is pinching so hard that the paper just bunches up, you're too low, and if you can't feel the nozzle you're too high. This is also how you're going to check if your bed is level.
The second thing is bed material. If your z height seems good but your plastic isn't sticking, this is the next thing to investigate. Good printing surfaces include glass, painter's tape, kapton tape, aluminum, PEI, commercially available plates like BuildTac, or just the default print bed. Try different surfaces until you find one that works and that you like. I like painter's tape because it is disposable and I can tear it to pieces to get tricky prints off the bed.
The third thing is chemical adhesion. You can get some extra stick by treating your bed. The most popular adhesion aids are hairspray and glue sticks. ABS can also use ABS slurry, which is a mixture of ABS (usually failed prints or support material) and acetone. I use this hair spray. For a laugh, look at what other customers bought alongside this. It's all 3d printing stuff.
Once you get your printer working, I'd suggest you print out a test print or two, and if you're having major issues then come back to /r/3dprinting or /r/fixmyprint for some help.
As far as tools of the trade go, I'd make sure you have a pair of pliers or tweezers to handle hot plastic dribble from the extruder, a putty knife to help get prints off the bed and smooth tape down if you end up using it, all the screw drivers and allen wrenches that you need to tighten screws and bolts on your printer, and a set of calipers to measure prints and check that your printer is performing as necessary.
There's a way to towel dry without bringing in frizz. You just scrunch your hair in it on the softer side of the towel instead of rubbing back and forth. This is what I do so now I don't have to damage my hair with heat. If you still just like the outcome of blowdrying, then you might want to consider a heat protectant spray like [this one] (https://www.amazon.com/TRESemme-Thermal-Creations-Tamer-Protective/dp/B000H88QOM). It's what I used to use.
I have wavy hair (24 f though) but I know it can be a pain in the butt to deal with regardless of length. The more you fight the natural texture of your hair the more work you'll be doing to maintain it and honestly it usually looks better with your natural texture. The best thing I've found to use on it is the wax/paste because it gives you definition but doesn't make it crunchy. My favorite kind is garnier fructis surf wax but they also make something specifically for men that's by suave. The garnier one smells fruity and the men's one smells more fresh (I've used it before- it's pretty nice). For my long hair I scrunch it, might be a different technique for men. I would look to Robert Downey Jr or Patrick Dempsey for good styles that I personally find attractive.

Check out /r/curlyhair for your daughter. I have found some good pointers in there.
Catwalk curl amplifier is one of my new favorite products I discovered there.
There are a few texturizing sprays that achieve this look! My favorite is the Not Your Mothers Beach Babe Spray :)
Have you tried a detangler to help get the knots out easily? This brand has worked quite well for me on long, curly hair.
I live in Orlando and I swear by Keratin! I use this product for frizz. Good luck!
Sun-in is basically very dilute hydrogen peroxide and some conditioning ingredients.^Source It performs the same way bleach peroxides work, just at a much lower concentration. Basically it reacts with the pigment in your hair so that the pigment is oxidized and hair is decolorized but it must soften and damage the proteins in the cuticle and cortex in order for this process to work.^How ^Peroxide ^Lightens ^Hair Any product that lightens your hair will have the same effect. One of the reasons Sun-in can be really damaging is because it doesn't get rinsed out after a specific period of time, unlike a peroxide treatment. If you are going to use it, I would suggest deep conditioning masks before and after application, leaving it on for only the time you're going to be applying heat or sunlight, and babying your hair the same way you would if you were applying peroxide bleach. (IE, no SLS shampoos, wash as little as possible, use a lot of conditioner when washing, and weekly hair masks)
Edit to include sources and rephrase a sentence.
Thanks! I'm using a few products and I've been nopooing for a few months now.
Length - the longest in the front goes down to about the bridge of my nose. The sides aren't quite long enough to tuck behind my ears yet, but I blow-dry it down.
Pre-blow drying - When my hair is a little wet, I use a heat protective spray from TRESemme and a bit of Hanz de Fuko Quicksand.
Post-blow drying - I use Hanz de Fuko Claymation to get some more separation and hold. If I REALLY care, then I'll use some hairspray too.
At least for my hair, I've realized that the way I blow-dry my hair is WAY more crucial than the products I use or even the cut I have. I have typical super straight hair that grows out of my head perpendicular to my scalp.
I've been considering moving my toners to spray bottles for easier application even at home.

And a smaller 2.5oz perhaps for travel
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000NIY7QM/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&amp;condition=new
After every shower I use about 3 or 4 pumps of this leave-in, which makes my hair silky when I style it. But that's all I use other than what I said previous regarding frizzies. I've found that my hair doesn't hold a curl with a regular curler but with a wand it stays for over 48 hours, graduating from big bouncy curls to pretty beachy waves. I highly recommend a wand if your hair needs help holding a curl!
I think updos are the way to go for hair out of your face. This is my favorite, but I like anything with french braids. I love spin pins, they work so much better than bobby pins, especially on slippery hair.
I also just got a bottle of salt spray that works wonders for getting my hair to stay in updos it would normally slide right out of. For example, this hairstyle never worked for me until I tried the salt spray, then it stays all day.
Can any of you recommend a good, fine mist bottle (preferably around 100ml)? I’ve ordered some in the past and it just sprays too much and wastes the product and is not a fine enough mist. I just ordered these but didn’t realize how big and bulky it would be (stupidly got 10oz) and it squeezing it is kind of tiring for your hand if that makes sense. Long story short, I just need a good, fine mister.
I need to find a mister that works for the Shirojyun! I have these bottles and while they mist water fantastically (super fine and soft mist), they just kinda squirt the Shirojyun out. Blah.
Seems like that is commonly used for sticking surfaces together in 3-D Printing Are you using this for the alcohol content?
I have super straight hair as well (though mine is very thick), and it used to be that I couldn't keep my hair curled even if it started smoking on the heating rod...
What I find to be really helpful is to spray my hair with some kind of texturizing spray Not Your Mother's Beach Babe is my product of choice, easy to find in most US pharmacies, and inexpensive.
After spraying my hair, I'll wrap it up in a bun or braid it. If I sleep with it in a braid, it can stay luscious and wavy for the entire next day!
Happy cake day!
I can't decide between one of my favorite books (I lost my original during a move) or some new hair product, but my favorite dessert of all time is probably red velvet cake. Either that or spritz cookies, but those take too damn long to make :P
cheesecake all day everyday
Products like this guy. That's not a "tried and true" one since I don't personally use it, just the first one google returned, but it was an option I found while I was still hoping to restore my hair, and some people use it clearly.
I use this one:

You know what, I was very concerned about that before I started straightening too, but I totally forgot about it until you just mentioned it haha. Honestly, I don't use anything on my hair when I straighten it, but it is recommended that you use a spray heat protectant. I used this one for a long while and really liked it (probably gonna buy some now that you mentioned it - I've gotten lazy, and you're really right that it's not good for your hair). The most important thing to look for in a heat protectant for your type of hair is that it's not gonna make your hair too greasy - I used one from RedKen that made my hair super heavy and greasy, even after a cut. It was even "recommended" to me by a stylist, but I stopped using it after two uses. Terrible.
want crazy strong hair spray?
Freeze spray
The brand is what I use for styling wigs. You want 8 in spikes, this is your product.
If you really have that much trouble with your hair, why not cut it super short then it just needs a brush and a bit of product to keep it from being frizzy?
Hair sewing is for buns and some braids to help hold them in place.
Hey, I've actually styled a wig for her before!! Here's what we did for the ponytail and what I would suggest:
My friend (who was cosplaying Asahina), ordered a wig specifically made for the character. Just look up "Aoi Asahina wig" and you should find some great options! Look for one with a chin-length base wig that comes with a clip.
Now here's what you do to style it!! Take the back of the base wig (the part that won't become the bangs) and get as much of it into the highest ponytail you can manage. Some of it will probably stick out, but that's okay! Pin down any stray bits with bobby pins (the brown ones should be about the same shade as her hair, so you won't have to worry about them showing) and spritz them with some hairspray.
Now take the clip and attach it securely to the ponytail you've made. From there mold the ponytails into one using hairspray. I suggest using a blow dryer with the hairspray, so you can get the hair in the position you want and then dry it with the blow dryer on a low setting. I'd also suggest getting a really heavy-duty hairspray for this - Got2B's freeze spray is fantastic for wig styling, in my experience.
The bangs should be much simpler - just pin them into place and spray the upper part. The wig should be just the right length for the dangly parts in front of her ears, so you shouldn't have to do much to those. You could spray the ends of them so they're spikes, but it's not totally necessary.
I hope all of this helped!!
Though I'm not sure about bleaching it cause it's fine. I have fine hair too and I've lost many a hair because of it. I would suggest doing highlights to add some dimension. red. Your natural hair color already looks perfect on you but red highlights would look fun. It wouldn't be that much hair either so you wouldn't end up losing as much hair. There are also ways of thickening it up though. If you don't end up dying it at all or if you do. Castor oil, neem oil, and many other things have helped people thicken their hair.

Here is the trick. Get some aerosol hairspray and put a light coat on the metal handle. The grip will slide right on. Let it dry overnight and the grips will be more secure than if you managed to slide them on without the hairspray.

This gal's youtube tutorial channel was recced to me after some more moaning about my hair woes downthread: Miss Charmsie. Her hair is about 1.5 tiers curlier than mine, based upon the totally arbitrary scale I have just invented (I know real scales exist), and I definitely can't pull off bangs, but maybe it'll be useful to you! The two product recommendation videos are worth a watch.
I can tell you a few basics after finally learning how to handle my hair a bit. First - if you are gonna put in any product, do it when your hair is still wet from the shower, and probably use about half of what you usually do. A leave in conditioner is an absolute must, even if you don't use any other products. I don't use a towel or a t-shirt in my hair, I just wring it out like an old dishrag and leave it to air dry. Since it's thin that doesn't take too long. DON'T TOUCH THAT SHIT!!! It gets said over and over, and I never bought it till I was like 30. Seriously, tape your hands to thighs if you can't resist the urge. This is the most critical phase in curls. My hair always looks it best when I leave myself no time to mess with it before I have to literally run out the door!
If I have the time I will do a very careful half-way dried spritz with a sea salt spray, especially around the roots for the volume/definition. But don't go crazy! I will usually flip my hair over and bend like I'm tying my shoes to do this so the product doesn't just end up on the crown and weight my biz down. When it's finally dry I will do a very, very gentle break-up of my curls with my fingers (might get an afro pick after watching Miss Charmsie's videos) and give it a little toss around like I'm in a mosh pit to break it all up and make it look natural.
Give this product a try - it really works well for me. I have really long hair though, so it might not be a good choice depending on your hair length. I gather that texturing sprays are kinda controversial for curly hair, which is also dry hair, but it's worked well for me.
Yeah! I have the oil version of this stuff. I bet this would work just as well though! And it's very inexpensive! You can find it at any target or drugstore too though.
Depends how light you want to go. If you want Billy Idol platinum, then yes you should use a pro because you need strong bleaching products. If you just want to go a couple shades lighter then there are gentle products like this readily available. Yes it will dry your hair a bit, but you wear it short so who cares? It will grow out fast enough. Just don't squirt it in your eyes and you'll be fine.
conditioner helps. they also make a "detangler" spray, which is great. you can also cut their hair to a more manageable length.

While my hair is nothing like yours (long, thick, relatively straight), I've had wonderful results with It's a 10 Miracle Leave-in plus Keratin. It's on the pricier side but it does a lot of great things for my hair. It has heat protectant in it as well as it detangles, defrizzes, and a bunch of other things. I don't know anyone with wavy or curly hair that has used it but it says on the bottle it's for all hair types. And I don't think it would make your hair feel greasy, especially if you focused on the ends and stayed away from your scalp. It's hard to say for sure if you'd have results similar to mine but I would definitely recommend giving it a try if you're willing to spend the money!
I use this hairspray and it works wonder with getting pieces to stick :D. Also found at walmart too where I got mine. We all face the same problems, youll do great!

I got dog food from Chewy that was just about to expire, and I let them know. They Fed Exed me a new bag right away and said they will make sure to check the date- the best. Not only that, but I ordered two leashes since it has been years and theirs are getting ratty; they arrived with huge clips and my dogs are tiny so I coudn’t make them work; Chewy refunded my $ immediately and asked that I donate the items. Awesome! ❤️
Not Your Mother’s Beach Babe Spray because I’ve been dying to try this stuff 😎
I don't! I find that sea salt dries out my hair too much and I've never found one that didn't just make my hair feel greasy. I prefer texture sprays like the Oribe Dry Spray, Bumble & Bumble Dryspun or the drugstore dupe from Garnier Fructis! Once my hair is completely dry, I'll spray all over and kind of scrunch my roots a bit to add volume.
It's a spray. We use this stuff so you know what to look for, although our daughters have nowhere near the curls that your girl as.
I have the same kind of hair you do OP. Thin, falls out of every hair tie I've ever used (even the grippy ones), curls never stay, and it's hard to straighten.
I have to put up my hair above my shoulders for work, which usually requires me to wear a bun. To do this, I use an ez-bun. My hair actually stays in this contraption for my entire 12 hour shift. And it curls your hair when you take it out. The website has video tutorials on not only how to use the hair piece, but how to make each bun style. I find that the military bun style is the easiest (found on youtube). There is a learning curve to it though. It takes a bit of practice to actually get it to where you want it to be.
If you wanted to curl your hair, I've found that hair curlers work really well.
I can get my hair to straighten when I want to take the time to do so. I have to use a high heat, professional grade flat iron though. I usually use a hair straightening cream/ spray to prevent it from becoming damaged. My hair damages so easily too. I swear by CHI brand anything. Especially the smoothing creams and the protection spray. When you're straightening your hair, your flat iron burns off the sprays and creams before it ever burns your hair. I also rub a little gel on my finger tips and run them through my hair when I'm done using the flat iron. I find that this helps it stay straight longer and keeps it from frizzing as much. Keep running your fingers through until the gel completely dries in your hair.
You can also use decorative pins in your hair when you put it up in buns and pony tails. Doing the same thing every day doesn't have to be boring. I have a flower pin I use when I put my hair in a bun sometimes and bows for my bangs I use when I straighten my hair.
I was totally going to recommend this.. we rock.
It's a bit spendy, but Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray is PHENOMENAL. It's like dry shampoo on steroids. It does exactly what it says - gives your hair that dry, textured, roughed-up, lived-in look. A little goes a long way - start with a few small spritzes throughout your hair as you lift and separate, then rough it up with your hands (really work it in). You can then smooth out the top layer if there's too much magic happening. This is used on dry hair.
&#x200B;
On the other end of the spectrum, my go-to dry shampoo is a really cheap one (and I've tried a TON). Tresemme Volumizing Dry Shampoo. I've had no issues with white residue and I use it day after day with great results.
No, like texture paste or pomade.
I have a similar hair type and I found that http://www.amazon.com/Garnier-Fructis-Style-Texture-5-1000/dp/B004ZWMDZ4/ref=sr_1_1?s=beauty&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1348797540&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=garnier+surfer worked best after having tried a bunch of different shit. I didn't attempt a pompadour though, and I don't suspect this has enough hold for that (but it will definitely make your hair look good).
Ugh, yes - it can be so tough! But I finally got a few budget-friendly products. In case you're interested, here it is:

As for that haircut, I have an appointment on Saturday! Woo!
I have a v2.1 w/ a glass bed and I have no issues at all w/ aquanet hairspray.
Now when you say you've tried hairspray, was is the OG aquanet hairspray exactly like This? I spray down the glass lightly and that'll last me a good 5-10prints. And since I'm printing w/ petg my first layer height is a little on the high side and I still don't have any adhesion issues.
If that was the exact hairspray you used then the only thing I can think of is using a strong cleaner to make sure that your glass doesn't have any residue that's keeping your prints from sticking.
Don't use safe release. You want plain jane original 2090 blue 3m.
https://smile.amazon.com/ScotchBlue-Painters-Multi-Use-1-88-Inch-60-Yard/dp/B000A3DQGW/
You might get the safe release to stick with a layer of AquaNet ultra/extra hold no scent
https://smile.amazon.com/Aqua-Net-Unscented-Aerosol-Spray-11/dp/B002K33AFM
Or with some purple no show glue stick
https://smile.amazon.com/Elmers-Disappearing-Purple-School-E522/dp/B00178KMUC
But really, you'll want to eventually get a heated bed. Yes, this stuff can work, but you'll spend more on it over time than if you upgraded to a heated bed.
-----
What filament are you using, brand type and possibly color? Got any pictures? What are your print settings?
I only shampoo/condition once a week, other days I just scrub my scalp in the shower. I use Nizoral for shampoo to keep dandruff away, and Tresemme silicone-free conditioner.
I don't really dry my hair, I just wrap it in a hair towel.
And I use Tigi Curls Rock every day after I shower. It is the best product I have tried for frizz, and I've tried a LOT. You don't need a lot, so it's totally worth the price even if you're used to just buying drugstore products.
I also use the Power Putty, though I use Mess Maker (probably the exact same product lol). I'm sure there are better products out there but it's very inexpensive and generally does what I want it to do. I usually start with some sea salt spray, which is great for getting that piecey messy look -- I use this.

Here's something that'll make something easier for me
I style my hair in the opposite direction as well. The best method to keep if from flopping is using hair/blow dryer. Hair tends to stay in the direction that it dries, so drying it on the opposite direction will make it stay that way.
Get damp hair and blow dry in the direction that you want it to flow. You don't need to use too much heat. Make sure you use some sort of heat protectant (eg. normal spray on heat protectant or two drops of a natural oils such as argon oil (Note: oils aren't as good if you tend to have oily hair)).
If you blow dry you won't have to use as much product afterwards, and your hair will stay that way for much longer. As /u/mr_kierz said it gets easier after doing it for a week or so.
Ok great I'll try that! Would something like this do the trick? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002K33AFM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_tFNsxbAEW8P9Z
I only use a wide-toothed comb, brushes are curly hair's worst enemy in my experience. Plus they're cheaper and somewhat fun to look at.
For product, try this, I actually can't vouch for it yet lol but I've read it's good stuff for our type of hair
Yep, this is the exact stuff I use. Cheap and works great. http://www.amazon.com/Aqua-Net-Professional-Spray-Extra/dp/B001VFT0VS/
I have similar hair...if I really want to encourage wavy I use Aveda Be Curly plus Not Your Mother's Salt Spray and then scrunch it a little bit.
The Aveda stuff is a little pricy but I like the way it smells.
I have super finicky thin hair that can feel greasy from using normal conditioner but I found I can use Redken Satinwear Blow Dry Lotion or CHI Iron Guard (depending on what I'm doing to my hair) for my heat protection
He missed the step where he sprays his scalp black.

To be honest, i'd have no idea where to start looking in the Netherlands... I had a look for a hair care supply place, but google translate can only go so far. Hahaha.
Can you order off amazon? Here is an example of the spray.
I like the brand that i linked to on Amazon (Not your Mothers), but it depends what's available to you. :)
I really like TIGI Curls Rock Amplifier, however you might find that it isn't strong enough to hold the curls / waves, seeing as you have thick hair.
You could try a sea salt spray like Paul Mitchell's one. It works very well, but your hair will feel a little 'dirty'.
The biggest thing to encourage waves at the front / sides of your hair is to dry your hair using a diffuser.
This is the routine I discovered 2 showers ago so it might still change(WILL UPDATE):
I take care of my hair first thing when I get into the shower.
shampoo once every 10 or 20 days.
condition everytime I shower (2-3 times a week), I put in about two "squeezes" and leave it for 10 minutes then rinse like 20-30% out
while still in the shower and with dripping when hair, apply a lot of gel.
&#x200B;
When I get out I wrap my hair in a tshirt and leave it in for 30-40 minutes, mooving the shirt about to make sure the top of my head always have the dry parts of the shirt.
After this I apply the smallest amount of another gel and 4 drops of oil (don't know the brand, it's from the supermarket.
If I have no time I blow dry using diffuser.
&#x200B;
I will try to let it air-dry and see the difference.
&#x200B;
I'M SO HAPPY FINALLY I FOUND SOMETHING THAT WORKS!!
Your best bet is to try and avoid things you know have a history of breaking you out. Garnier and Tresemme have a lot of scent but I'm still able to use Garnier products safely, for example. Other friends of mine have decent luck with just this but it makes my skin completely freak out. Your skin is going to react differently to different things, regardless of it having comedogenic ingredients or not.
Also if you live in a humid climate just accept that you're going to need to buy the most heavy duty shit available and it will still run at times. If you find it going floppy, run to an air conditioned bathroom, run a wet hand through your hair, let it dry. Quick way to restyle your hair!
What kind of hair do you have?
I try to avoid that look, but I often end up with it when I use this stuff, Garnier "Surf Hair" paste. It works well as a thickener for fine hair (me) and responds poorly to being blow dried with hot air. That "poor response" results in floppy, bunchy hair that behaves as though it's wet. Might be worth a try.
But for the love of god, don't listen to the guys telling you to not wash your hair everyday.
No problem. I'll tell you a bit about my hair care/styling methods. I'm no guru, but I've been using this method for about a year, and I've found that this works for me right now. I'm sure I'll tweak my methods somewhere down the line. Difficult to manage natural hair requires a lot of trial and error. My hair's natural right now. It's been about six and a half years since I last relaxed my hair, and though I'm sometimes tempted to go back, I'm determined not to do so. It always resulted in hair breakage and loss of length. Granted, it was largely because I didn't do a good job of taking care of my hair.
If I know I'm going to be lazy about my hair for the upcoming week, I just put the majority of my effort taking care of my hair into Saturday or Sunday.
On Saturday or Sunday morning, I'll wash it (sulphate free shampoo and conditioner), use the LOC (liquid, oil, conditioner [[creamy leave-in like this one] method to moisturize my hair, let my hair air dry for about 5-6 hours, and then stretch my hair using a blow-dryer.
Since I started using the LOC method, I've found that my hair holds on to moisture longer, and doesn't end up bone dry at the end of the week. I usually stretch my hair with a blow dryer because if I don't, it just becomes too tangled and difficult to manage.
If I'm feeling super lazy and just can't be bothered with my hair, it just goes up in a bun. If I'm feeling a little less lazy, I'll do an overnight flexi-rod set. Flexi-rods can take a while to get used to, but it's one of those things where practice makes perfect, and you can eventually get those things in and out of your hair in no time. I usually put them in before bed while I'm watching TV.
Since I stretch my hair with a blow-dryer, I try to find ways to throw in a bunch of heat protection. After I wash my hair, I section it into 4 pieces, and just work around my head. I start with Aphogee style and wrap mousse for the liquid (it's also a heat protectant), then I use IC Fantasia straightening serum as the oil, and finish off with the Cantu shea butter I linked to before. After that, I twist each section so my hair can absorb the moisture, and to get a start of getting my hair in a stretched state. Later on in the day, I blow-dry each section. If I need my hair to dry faster, I just take the twists out 1 or 2 hours before I'm ready to blow dry. I try to get my hair to air dry as much as possible so I can expose my hair to as little heat from the blow-dryer as possible.
If I plan on flat ironing my hair, I follow that same method, but also use Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Flat Iron Perfector (yes, you guessed it, more heat protection).
All of that can sound like a lot, and right now, it's a bit too much for me at the moment. I honestly don't like having to deal with my hair most of the time, so I'm probably going to braid or twist my hair soon. If you're like me, and can't be bothered to pay an arm and a leg to get your hair braided, or simply find someone to do it (I live in a very white part of my city) find a day to learn how to do extensions yourself. Eventually, all it'll cost you is a Saturday and however many packs of hair you'll need. And it's a great time to binge watch some Netflix.
This hair can be frustrating. I know...
Welcome to the world of product. It's a wonderful thing.
I highly recommend Redken Rough Paste. It doesn't make your hair all shiny or anything, and smells fucking amazing. Also, if you don't go overboard with it, you can't really tell there's anything in your hair. Fantastic product. Typically what I use when going out/somewhere important, as it is a bit pricey.
Otherwise, I actually like Garnier Fructis Surf Hair for day to day wearing. Much cheaper, no smell at all, no sheen or anything, good control, lasts all day, no real scent to it, and does the trick quite well.
The Garnier Fructis one you can get at any drug store, in the US at least, for about the same price as the link I've given here, the Redken stuff, however, will run you close to twice as much if you buy it in stores, so buy online if you can.
You need some thermal pads(https://www.amazon.com/400mm-205mm-Silicone-Thermal-Heatsink/dp/B007PPEW52/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1435448186&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=gino%20pad) roughly 1"x1" to put under the 4 corners of the bed. This will raise the glass bed up by 0.5mm and will prevent a warped aluminum bed from influencing the leveling process. Heat the bed up and clip some binder clips on the 4 corners over the thermal pads. Let it sit for a few minutes. This ensures the pads are compressed and in full contact with the 4 corners of the bed. Once you are ready to level the bead, the clips can be removed. The pads are sticky enough where the glass bed won't slide off while printing. With a glass bed, you need to apply a material the plastic will still to. This can be a glue stick, Auqua Net hairspray(brand is important https://www.amazon.com/Aqua-Net-Unscented-Aerosol-Spray-11/dp/B002K33AFM) or a sheet of PEI. Auqua Net hairspray works great, but needs recoating after a few prints.
Give this a shot. I use it and it keeps a strong, sturdy, and long-lasting hold on my thick and disagreeable hair without making it look greasy.
Can you scrunch it and make it wavy/curly?? I do that when I air dry and it looks pretty decent. I use: https://www.amazon.com/TIGI-Catwalk-Curls-Rock-Amplifier/dp/B0007506U2/ref=zg_bs_11057901_1?_encoding=UTF8&amp;refRID=WDK5ED4PSE13MM70MCT2&amp;th=1 when it's wet, scrunch it up, twirl some of it together for bigger curls and let it go. I also have this for days I dry it and wear it straight: https://www.amazon.com/Revlon-Salon-One-Step-Dryer-Volumizer/dp/B01LSUQSB0 and it cuts the blow drying/straightening time in half cause it's doing both at the same time.
Sorry for the long links.
well you could try this stuff, I occasionally use it in the winter when I haven't been getting as much sun. But if you use it often, It gives you a gradually lighter hair color and it looks really natural. If you have sandy hair this might be the push you want without actually dying your hair, although I have a few friends with sandy hair and I love it.

5 is too long. You'd look sharp if you get a three on the sides and back and get scissors on top and blend. Ask for them to texture your hair and then add a little bit of gel or wax to style. This stuff will work well for you http://www.amazon.com/Garnier-Fructis-Style-Texture-5-1000/dp/B004ZWMDZ4
Definitely go for it! I had loooooong hair, and I showed that exact picture to my stylist last fall and went for it. Honestly I haven't looked back once!
I'm pretty lazy with my hair, so I picked up a tub of this stuff. After I get out of the shower I just get a tiny gloop of it on my finger and run it through my bangs and it gives it the perfect wispy texture. Good luck!!
Garnier Fructis makes a great texturizing spray that gets me closer to that second day hair look. And it's reasonably priced, compared to similar Bumble & Bumble or Oribe sprays.
Heat that bed up. 90c or so should work.
Hairspray + 90c bed works great for ABS for me. Have to actually let it cool before I can pop it off.
Also, which hairspray are you using? I tried one that only sorta worked, then moved to the "standard" Aqua Net:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002K33AFM
My hair sounds like it’s very similar to yours in texture. I don’t use a flat iron on mine, but I do blow dry with a vented or paddle brush to smooth it out on my wash days. I know you just asked for a texturizing spray, which I do use, but this full combination of products is what helps make the texture and volume last all day, without reapplications.
• This mousse on damp hair, followed by
• This primer spray for heat protection and to speed up the drying process
• Blow dry till 80% dry, then finish drying with a vented brush
• Once hair is dry, apply a teensy bit of this cream, followed by
• This dry texture spray
• Then maybe a bit of flexible hold hairspray, depending on how I’m wearing my hair that day
The texturizing spray is amazing, but it doesn’t give the volume and the texture I’m looking for without the mousse, and it would wear off by the end of the day without the cream underneath. My friend who wears her hair curly uses the same cream, just on damp hair for curl definition. Ulta and Target carry some of these products as well.
I hope you find something that works for you!
I buy saltwater for my hair
this specifically
smells good as hell
idk why you so surprised by that
