go to a hairdressers. they can cut your hair so that it is thinner, and give you some stuff for the frizz! just say tell them whats wrong with your hair and say "fix it!" hairdressers always seem to love that level of trust that u place in them!!!!!!!

Well you can cut some of your hair and buy some thinning scizzors from walmart... they are only like 7 dollars. There is also a lot of frizz things... you can use hair-spray, gel, mouse... there's a lot.. Good Luck!!

For the thickness, you can have it thinned out at a salon. Also, having it layered and/or razor cut helps alot too. For the frizz, there's this stuff called John Frieda Frizz Ease Wind-Down Relaxing Cream. It's about $5 and it works pretty well. There's also this stuff called Design Line Straightening Balm Texture Tamer by Regis that works even better, but it costs about twice as much.

Oh my. I've had that same problem for most of my life, and I just started finally being able to control it a little under a year ago!



Okay, first of all, and I can't stress this enough, the key is to condition, condition, condition! Herbal Essences makes a great moisturizing shampoo and conditioner, and so does that newer brand, Garnier Fructis (I have both).



When you wash your hair, you should dilute the shampoo. Pour a little over a quarter-sized amount of shampoo into your palm, mix with water, and then massage it into your hair.



Always condition. When you're ready to wash the conditioner out, do it with cold water, the icier the better.



When you get out, use a tiny bit of gel. Maybe a nickel-sized drop, and work it through your hair while it's still nice and wet. When your hair dries, you shouldn't be able to feel it at all.



Also, buy a deep conditioning treatment. Like everyone else, I recommend Frizz-Eaze brand. I forget exactly what it's called, but it comes in a little jar (not a bottle) and says "Step 2" on it. BEFORE you take your shower, work it through your hair, then blowdry it for 3-5 minutes. Then just take your shower as usual.



One other thing. If you blowdry your hair, that can add to the frizziness, so you might want to consider not doing that.



That's the method I use, and it works wonders for me. For years, I always wore my hair in a ponytail because it just frizzed out so much if I wore it down. Now, I've started doing all of that stuff, and I can wear my hair down all the time without a problem. Good Luck! And let me know how it works out for you.

dont blow dry it cuz then u usually end up w/ a fro. but get it straightened and thied and see if that helps

You could always get it professionally relaxed- that REALLY works..



The only thing is, is that its somewhat expensive and damaging to your hair... but it works...
