How do I achieve thick, straight, and shiny hair? Right now my hair is very dry, dead, poofy, fine, and a yucky mix between wavy and straight. How do I add volume and make my hair more straight?

2 things:

Stop brushing your hair dry and treat it the way curly hair needs to be treated, with moisture, cool water, dignity and respect.

How do you claim to have ‘poofy’ hair and yet still wish to add volume?

Then, you can go about finding ways to straighten it, otherwise, you'll just hate that too
