thanks again, one thing i come across today is that this stuff (duno wot it is) is a styling product or some thing and wot it does is, makes ur hair slightly shiny, holds bits of hair together, allows movement and doesnt look greacy and doesnt seem to dry out, is this just wet look gel or something? coz it looks ace and doesnt dry out but i dunnot wot it is

idea time, how about if i just whack this over and wash my hair about every 2-3 days.

Secret Agent lightly lubricates hair leaving it supple,smooth and shiny.It gives 24 hr coverage,permeating the hair shaft,taming static and flyaway hair.With a sunscreen to help protect from UV damag

well i just washed my hair and it looked absolutly crap dry, lots of static n split ends, so i just put some gel on and spiked it up till it gets longer, im still gonna wash it often tho, im guessing i should shampoo about every 2 days and condition it every day rite? would that fix split ends or r they perminent?

ok first of all, my hair i had it cut abuot 2 months ago when it was really long, it kinda sucked tho coz the dye screwed it up, i used wax then but it looked super greacy coz i put a LOT on, also when i washed my hair it kind of stuck to my head :D.

now my has been cut, it was dyed black but is naturally brown, theres still a little black on the tips, about 2 cm but on the sides its all out coz its shorter.

while its short, iv just been making it spikey becuase it looks dull being short and flat , + i dont have the anti frizz stuff yet, gotta get some more

also im having trouble finding a wide tooth comb, there isnt one named "wide tooth" and i dont know what im looking for

Posted By: GUEST!
Date Posted: Feb 26, 2004 at 9:23am

ok, well what iv been trying isnt working very well, the main look i want is this

with this look, u can see, its a bit shiny and clumps together and allows for lots of movement it looks like.

at the min what iv been doign is waiting for my hair to try, then working in a bit of wax (the one u suggestes) then some of that clay (the one u said) on the ends, i dont have the light gel yet or the anti friz stuff. will the light gel stop it looking a tad bit dull? what affect will the light gel have, because the method i tryed sucks.

also i tryed doign my hair with soem gel with wax, i did wax and clay stuff like i said abouve but this time i added a little gel on the tips and a little all over, this stoped my hair looking dull and added clumpinf and a little movement (my hair is about.. 3 inches long im guessing) and i might dye my hair black again as when it was black i didnt use colourd hair shampoos and its dulled now. plz reply, thanks!

oh one last thing, if the light gel is a spray , will it still b effective? coz i never used spray be4

oh one last thing, when i start washing my hair better, will split ends go away? coz i do have a few, just wondering if u could repair them or something

Posted By: GUEST!
Date Posted: Mar 4, 2004 at 8:49am

*sorry for spamming up the boards*

ok problem time, i just washed my hair and conditiond it and the hair at the front (bangs) kinda has a curl to the right on it, which it didnt have be4, this coz i didnt wash everything out properly?
n e way, some gel fixed that, but the way the hairdresser cut my hair sucks, is all jagged and didnt cut bangs in streight line, well it is, but its all jagged and has chunks out here and there, i dont really wanna get my hair cut again. but i guess if i cant fix split ends, that wot im gonna have to do :(
