Sorry, I'm bored at work and easily entertained.

Yeah, and you do a keg stand to get it into your hair!

I have dark curly hair. The first time I highlighted was last summer when I put auburn highlights in it. It looked really nautural but I'm thinking of doing something more drastic, like different shades of highlights to contrast.

It is shoulder length now. One day I decided to chop it all off! Suprisingly, it looked good and I would highly recommend the cut, as long as your hair isn't too curly/kinky. The only downside was that it made me look older than I was and I already look old for my age because I'm tall. I took a pic of Meg Ryan in City of Angels to my hairstylist and she cut it great.

I used to straighten my hair everyday in high school. Now I just let it go natural because I don't have time to mess with it! I personally like the way it looks straight better- I guess because I fit in with the majority of people.

My hair is straight. No curl. No volume.! It hits right at my chin and is kinda layered . . . I can't curl it b/c it doesn't hold curl . . . It's as straight as a stick! I use a volumizing mouse and I blow-dry my hair with my head upside down . . .I just can't get any volume!! Any suggestions?!?!? :confused:

My hair is pretty straight. About a year or so ago I did one of those notorious Magic Straight things to my hair and that thing is just ugggggggggh. Gives truth to the saying "no pain no gain." My hair used to be naturally wavy. I want to get highlights done to my hair though. Once I got them I couldn't stay away from getting them. Oh and I have black hair.

I forgot to ask... can I buy this in any old store like Target or do I have to go to a beauty place like Sally's Beauty Supply or do I have to special order it online or something?

you can buy Tigi at walmart in the salon and stuff, but they don't sell it at places like the grocery store or anything.
You can get it at any salon, or online!

By the way, I got my Chi Iron in the mail yesterday (got it on ebay for like $60) I showered last night and only put in some Redken AntiSnap and this morning my hair was a frizzy nightmare! So I used the iron, and VIOLA! Straight, gorgeous hair- like Jennifer Anistons!

GET IT If you have curly hair it is going to be my best friend!

I have blonde naturally curly hair. My hair color is awesome, I get compliments on it all the time. It has a lot of natural highlights and stuff througout it. But my hair is really thick and used to have banana curls.. Then, at the age of 15, I discovered a chemical relaxer which I get done 2-3 times a year! So now my hair is straight :)

I am naturally a light blonde, but as I was getting older it was getting to be a dirty blonde but still blonde w/ natural highlights, i decided (junior year of hs) to dye it...and I did, red..well auburn and it looks great, my skin seems to be the perfect shade and I can really pull it off well, most people don't know its not natural (unlike Kirsten Dunst in Spiderman, who can't pull it off at all!! haha) I also have a natural wave to my hair and have bangs so its killer for me in rain, right after it gets wet or in really bad heat/humidity...I went to a fraternity formal in early may and this girl had an AMAZING straightener...now of course a dance is a perfect test to see how your hair is going to "perform" shall we say...I used it and it worked great, even through the heat of dancing and the grossness outside (we went to Virginia Beach, so it was all gross and muggy outside) and it still stayed straight! even till the next morning, it was so soft and I would recommend this straightner to anyone! I got it for 89.99...usually sells between $120.00-230.00 (I've seen it for 275! haha) Its call the Sapphire by Solano...125 volt, 60 Hz, 95-135 watts and its the bigger one of the two...it works great, hope everyone has as much success as I did!
