Um, okay.I have the same problem. I am mixed with black %26amp;%26amp; white and have curly hair as well. As a younger child my mom used a hot comb that is gold. It cost about $20-$30 where I get it at, which is Mid-K.

It really helps. As I got older I used a straightener 2" wide from MaxiGlide.

As for the healthy and smooth, the best remedy is natural. Rub Wonder 8 oil on your hair every night before you go to bed. Cover your hair with a do rag or two bandanas that are full coverage. This helps lock in moisture.

When your hair is straightened, stay clear of water based products. Mineral oil is your best base.

When its like 75% humidity or higher, use silicone gel stuff that seals in moisture and locks out FRIZZ! I get mine from Maxius Hair products. It helps or you can get some from a store which may have lower quality but have similar results.

If you need anymore help or tips from my mom email me at xo_lady_railer_xo@yahoo.com and it will seriously help!

PS: My mom is sitting here reading this and she pointed out that, quote "all the losers that are answering this question need ta get their facts straight cuz they're clueless when it comes to biracial hair...." end quote.

Hope it helped!

Be sure to keep your hair moisturized and a hot oil treatment every month or so is always a great way of nourishing your hair. I personally love Pantene shampoo and conditioner for African American hair.

I guess the stuff that keeps any kind of hair healthy basically...like

massaging your scalp every once in a while, using a good shampoo that isn't harsh on your hair, not coloring it if possible and sometimes use avocado or eggs on it for a while and then wash it so that it stays smooth.

My mother -in-law swears by castor oil and vaseline she mixes herself. Her hair is to her waist and very wavy. Gorgeous. I used this for my kids and they use it for theirs. Very inexpensive. Helps a lot with "cantche, don'tche" too. My family is all mixed up too. Primarily black. We are proud of who we are. Please stop refering to yourself as a "mutt"

Use a good conditioner on your hair.

Consider getting hot oil treatments for your hair.

Keep your hair trimmed.

Try not to use tight rubber bands or elastics on your hair to reduce the amount of breakage.

Use the least amount of heat on your hair as possible.

Use products made for your type of hair.

Use products that will protect your hair when you use heat on it.

Don't over/under wash your hair. Once a week is the best.

If you aren't taking a multi-vitamin product, you should start, and it would also be good to take Vitamin E or Sea Buckthorn Oil Vitacaps.

If you can get the new Noevir Tokara Sea Mineral Shampoo and Conditioner and Deep Conditioner, it's fantastic or normalizing your hair with botanicals and sea minerals. contact me for more info.
