I ordered a golden blonde mohair on ebay.  It is VERY curly & I wanted straight.  I could even deal with a SLIGHT wave.  How do I straighten the mohair?

Wet it down thoroughly (and you can put a leave-in conditioner on it) then put a nylon stocking on the head for a day or two till it's really dry. Carefully remove the stocking.
Boy! how about that... I always want really curly and can't find it. Usually end up with straight or slightly wavy.

Unfortunately, there is no good way to permanently straighten mohair. Once you root it, you can wet it and comb it 'straight' but it won't stay straight. Little girls with blonde curls can be really cute, it just gives them a little bit older look. I advise you do that, as I've never found any method of straightening really succesful.

Here is a not-too-bad translation of Paula's question that I did on the internet since I do not speak the language:
"Hi
Since I do to know the length of the mohair and varied types,
is there any smooth and long mohair the enough one in order that I am able to do great bunches?
What the type is of mohair used to make micro those baby's cabecinhas enrraizada
what is well ralinha for newly born babies recently born?
Grateful
Kisses and embraces to all!"

I will answer and then translate to Paula as best as I can. Paula, most people say how long their mohair is and should say what kind also. You can use any mohair for micro-rooting babies, but it should be good quality. The needle also makes a difference in micro-rooting. Try a German no barb needle, 42-43 guage. Space the hairs evenly. Secrist and Secrist dealers usually carry mohair. Glue inside the head when done, then wet and style.

I hope this answers your questions. HUGS!

Responderei e logo traduzirei a Paula tão melhor como posso. Paula, a maior parte de pessoas dizem de que comprimento o seu mohair é e deve dizer que espécie também. Você pode usar qualquer mohair para micro-arraigar bebês, mas ele deve ser boa qualidade. A agulha também faz uma diferença no micro-enraizamento. Não tente um alemão nenhuma agulha de farpa, 42-43 guage. Espaço os cabelos exatamente. Secrist e os negociantes Secrist normalmente transportam o mohair. Cola dentro da cabeça quando feito, então molhado e estilo.

Espero que isto responda às suas perguntas. APERTOS!
Por favor desculpe a minha tradução se algum estiver errado. Estou usando um tradutor online.
