What stuff you put on your hair when straightening it and the finish look is glossy and shining look

[biglips]

?

I don't know the answer, but I wait with baited breath for some other replies - DH bought me a pair of GHD's (supposedly the best) for Christmas.
But my hair still looks crap and frizzy - so what am I doing wrong ?

I didn't know that I was supposed to put stuff on my hair ?

I dont straighten my hair but I do put a couple of drops of this

or
this

Serum's are supposed to be good but I have always found that they make my hair too soft and therefore prone to frizz!
Make sure your hair is totally dry before using GHD's. Always do a section at a time.
Afterwards I use brunette (the one designed for brunette hair - can't remember the make)smoothing cream. Just put a bit between your hands, rub together and then smooth over hair.
Works a treat on my frizzy main.

I used to use GHDs, and put serum on after straightening. I think you need to make sure any product you put on before straightening works with the heat, otherwise it could make frizziness even worse. There seem to be lots of products on the shelves to use with straighteners now though, or get the GHD brand products?

shine spray works nicely on my fine hair - not too heavy

I use GHDs - my hair is fine and prone to go a bit kinky IYKWIM. I use John Frieda frizzease for fine hair - I put it on before I dry my hair - works a treat!

I use KMS silker spray first, then Paul Mitchell "Super Skinny" serum followed by Paul Mitchell "Super Scupt".

Finish off with Paul Mitchell "gloss drops" aand his shining spray afterwards, if I have time.

When I do my hair in exactly this sequence, it always draws comments on the style/condition/shine.

The last time I had my hair cut they used this stuff before blow drying it and the effect was astonishing.
Am trying to steel myself to spend that much on a hair product but haven't managed it yet.
HQHair seems to be the place to look...

tigi

this is great

i put andrew collinge perfect endings on mine.

I have very dry curly hair..i use ghd(fat ones) and spray some frizz ease finishing spray on afterwards. about£5.95 from boots,superdrug etc works a treat

have tried lots of more expensive things and this is the best(for my hair anyway)

Use this and you'll never go back

Expensive though

Yeah well curls are back girls

Only joking

Well actually I'm not, the new thing is cyrls which you can use your straighteners to create

I use John Frieda Shine Shock Glosser on mine.

so thats 2 recomendations for redken then

I justify buying Redken because I am so lazy with my hair. I make sure it has a good cut, so I'm dead fussy about who cuts it and I use an expensive shampoo. Every time I dry it it falls into place and I use nothing else. There really is that much difference between using Redken against any others. It's so expensive that I am careful using it but I get lots of comments on the condition of my hair.

i use the aveda stuff...

if you are alloking for redine go to this place

should read looking for redkin...

I love redken products - worth the money IMO, my hair has been so much better since using them

paul mitchell "gloss drops" I bought a tiny bottle about a year and half ago and the bottle is still half full. It is brilliant stuff!!

mrs Doolittle - you, like others recommend the redken range.
But which product, exactly, do you use ?
