I have lots of thick curly hair and it's fairly long (just past my shoulders). To get away from the 'crunchy' feel of it, I use Paul Mitchell medium hold sculpting foam. It's like a mousse in that it's applied the same way but there's something in it, that it doesn't leave your hair crunchy. And I put quite a bit of the product in because I have so much freaking hair. I apply after just towel drying my hair, then shake it around a bit to kinda aerate my hair, and just let it dry naturally throughout the day. I can usually go three days without having to wash my hair again if I want to keep the curls in. And surprisingly, my hair doesn't look greasy or nasty by that third day. I just mist it with water to keep the frizz down and smooth it, and I'm good.
Question for those of you that have lots of thick curly hair - what is the best styling product and best straightener to use to straighten your hair and not make it look like dry wheat?
On skin care, I'm using the ProActiv line for getting rid of acne and it's actually working really well for me. I didn't have massive acne but I had enough acne to annoy me (I'm freaking 20yrs old not 14, dammit) so I finally relented and got ProActiv. I just follow the basic routine of washing my face in the am and pm and it's made my skin clearer. I also tried the Bare Escentuals/id bare minerals make-up, and I'm a fan of it. A sister of mine let me use it one evening (which is fine because they're powder based and you need a brush to apply), and it definitely feels much better than applying liquid foundation - no oily residue. I'm considering ordering the Bare Escentuals make-up for myself.
