Why does this happen i always spray it with hairspray afterwards coz i heard that makes the shape stay longer but it stil goes strait.

Curling your hair?

Well if you wear your hair curly all the time then get a perm.

Also make sure your not using too much product to weigh down your hair.

Curling your hair?

as said in the previous answer, the amount of product may be weighing down your hair. Also, if you have long or very thick hair, the actual weight of the hair will pull the curl down and cause hair to become straight. or perhaps you're just one of those people who have a resistant hair type, which means it is very difficult to get into a shape which is not its original.

Curling your hair?

I have the same problem and I just chalk it up to having long, heavy hair. One solution I've found (after trying and failing with the whole hairspray situation) was to curl my hair when it's not freshly washed. As much as that might go against everything you're used to, the oils in your hair are really your best bet to mold it into shape and keep it that way for longer--so hair that hasn't been washed in 8-12 hours will hold curl better than hair that's just been washed. Another trick that works for me: after you've curled a section of hair, wrap it around a round brush for a few seconds and blast it with cold air from a hair dryer. The cool air actually helps to set the curl into place....better than any hairspray could do. And if all else fails and you absolutely refuse to ditch the AquaNet, remember to spray each section of your hair with hairspray BEFORE you curl it. The moisture, combined with the stiffening elements of the hair product, will lock in the shape of your curling iron as soon as the heat from the barrel touches your precious mane. Just don't be alarmed by the smell of burning hair, as you do so.

Curling your hair?

hmm? it's rather frustrating to spend that much amount of time on curling your hair only to find it straightening itself out not long after isn't it?

From experiences, i find it best to start off with some what wet/dry hair...i know it sounds weird...

after washing your hair, use a towel to blot it dry and squeezing the excess moisture out (do not blow dry just yet). comb your hair and apply any products like anti-frizz or those leave-in conditioner (if you do uses them).

then, (the answer you're looking for...) apply some mousse (for a soft hold) or some gel or gel/mousse product (for extra hold) distributing well evenly from roots to ends or from where ever you'll be curling. after doing so, let your hair air dry or to speed it up, a blow dryer on low speed blowing COOL AIR until it's about 80-90% dry before starting to curl your hair.

like you normally do after curling your hair, spray your ENTIRE HEAD with your choice of hairspray... ones for extra hold since you probably want it to stay curled longer. I personally like the soft hold or touchable hairsprays cuz my hair doesn't feel as hard after the hairspray drys.

ii have really thick and somewhat long (passing my bra strap) hair and it works for me. i know it sounds like it'll take forever but honestly...it's not really all that much of a difference and also...it's worth the extra step or two to keep the curls...

i hope these tips help...^_^

Curling your hair?

First of all stop using hair spray. Hair spray dries out the hair, leaving it hard, brittle and eventually break off. Buy the plastic snap on magnetic rollers, and also purchase a setting lotion. Apply the setting lotion to wet/damp hair and then use the rollers. For best results let your hair dry naturally. You will have shiny, bouncy beautiful curls that will last you all day.
