need to make my hair more dry

[dahlaheihst]

hi. I used to color my hair and bleech it when I was younger but I quit doin´that a few years ago. The thing I miss about it is that my hair always got so dry and damaged. I have extremely straight hair (some styleists calles my hair "chinese hair") and thick. And I have a kinda mohawk/messed up hair due. So when the hair is strong and health I have a big trouble shaping it. It´s almost impossible to bend och mess up. I wash it every day (sometimes twice) and have tried wax but a fixing gel holds my hair due better i shape.
So Is there a way to damage my hair and get i as dry as a bleech would without bleeching or color it?
Thanx

The answer to your question, my friend, is heat.
blowdry and flat ironing without any heat protection, moisturizing treatments or conditioning will get it dry, split and damaged in no time

what a crazy ass question... holy crap you can't spell either...

Heat ey? Maybe so. I could try that. But I was thinking of somekind of chemical to make it so.
The thing is, if I let it grow a bit it´s impossible to shape. Only when it´s coloured or bleeched, have I been able to get the hair due I want.
About the spell: Well it´s because I don´t have english as a native language. And this is only a web forum so how cares?

Only use drying shampoo and sit out in the sun to bake your hair.
And blow dry your hair up the wazoo

Wouldn't washing your hair twice a day accomplish that?

Why not try combing a perm through your hair (usually done to straighten hair / relax hair)?

Yeah

Buy the highest wattage hair dryer you can find and run in on the highest setting when your hair is dry. Do that for a few days and you should ******* up.
