Flat Iron Fail - W/W Wednesday
October 21, 2009
When I got my first straightening iron, we were all pretty fascinated. So one day we decided to see if we could straighten my son's soft curls. This is the result of that experiment.

I can't live without my flat iron....

Your son is so adorable!!
Happy day!
hugs hugs
Your son is def a good sport! I've never tried a flat iron. Of course, i don't even own a hair drier so i should probably start there. LOL
Oh what a sport he is!
Doesn't look like it worked. He is a good sport though.
Happy WW!
Not so much. LOL He was a good sport, though.
nope. lol. Great kid though to go thru that for ya! Must love his momma!
Not good. We try periodically to get the hubs to let us try it on his (quite long, quite curly) hair but he won't let us near him with it... so I agree with all of the above posters - your guy is a good sport.
Your kids are so fun!
I've definitely seen some people out there with worse hair. :o)
I don't know if that is a fail. Heck, he is probably on the cutting edge of some new bed-head style:-)
Wow, he let you use the straightening iron on him? What a sport. :)
You know what? He reminds me of Meeno Peluce (remember Voyagers?)...
lol looks like they are they to stay! the curls suit him though. i bet the girls like them ;)

Hee heeee, too funny!
He has beautiful hair, regardless. If you are serious about giving him a straight 'do, you need to blow dry his wet hair, smoothing it with a brush first, otherwise . . . well, you have pictures of otherwise.
LOL! Not a success, eh?
Cute kid. ;o)
You know you had to try. What a great sport he is.
How long did that take you?? LOL!
#2 loves it when I straighten his hair. He calls it "lion hair", I call it a whole lotta work for a really bad outcome. I'm curious about whether or not he will still let me do it when he's a big boy like yours!
Hilarious. Don't fight the curls!!!
He is a good sport.
Darn... I was just going to say he's a good sport but secret mom beat me to it! Nonetheless, he is ADORABLE!
Straight irons probably work best on really long hair... something about the length and weight of it helps flatten it out. I know my short layers are the hardest to get smooth,
So cute!!!!
It was very nice of him to let you try it out!
He looks like he likes it, LOL!
Love the pics! I have never tried a flat iron because they are so friggin expensive....
I tried using a flat iron to straighten my hair. I burned myself like 10 times. It took me a week before I could walk right! hahahaha! (still afraid to call?) hehe
Oh my goodness, what a guy for succumbing to the flat iron! LOL
Wow, what a good sport your son was for trying the experiment. Definitely looks like it was a no-go on working for him.
lol..my son has very curly hair.
he has only let his girlfriend try the flat iron on his hair!!
thanks for stopping by .
happy w.w
xoxo
That's hilarious. I love his pose.
Great look..lol. so, He must have supper curly hair. Of course he would be in style.:-)
how funny! Good sport!
He could be the next trend setter for his genration!
What a great sport for letting you try, then letting you take pictures for all to see! Better luck next time!
Oh, that gave me a smile. What a great kid. :)
Lol, he looks like a rock star :D
Oh my...poor kid, looks like the flat iron won!
Happy WW!
great pictures. i like his hairstyle. he seems happy with it. happy WW and take care.
LOL Big fail... But you know, you might have started a new hair style crazy unknowingly.
Funny! Like others have said, what a great sport!
Um...it didn't work. LOL
Why in heaven's name would you want to straighten those gorgous curls?
The things our boys will do to amuse mum eh?
That would be a no. Don't quit your day job. ;)
johnny depp would be proud...what a good sport to play along...lol.
Yeah... I'm here! Sorry it took me so long :O)
Big 'ole FLAT IRON FAIL... I have a CHI, it rocks - bling style!
Looks like you invented a new hair style!
Haha. That's too funny. I LOVE my flat iron....
-->Cute pictures. I have curly hair everyday because I'm lazy and my hair would never stay straight anyway. ha!

Wow - quite the hairdo!
OK so THAT worked...
:)
Sometimes you just gotta embrace the curls ;)
all I can say is HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
They don't look very straight..ha ha! My boys would have NEVER allowed me to do that! You are lucky you got him to sit still! He is such a cutie! :)
Cute pic!! He is adorable!
Not so much, huh. At least he was willing to play along.
Thanks for stopping by.
What a trooper!
I couldn't live without my straightening iron. I look like Chaka Khan without it (that reference doesn't date me too much does it?) :)
Some things just aren't meant to be!
Was the flat iron heated up? ;)
Love the pics! What a good sport your son is...that's true love! ;)
LOL! Too funny! At least he is a good sport!
OMG, I have to have my flat iron. I can't imagine that it didn't do a better job. lol
A problem I wish I had ... neither I nor my daughter have a smidge of texture to our hair. Flat and lifeless; that's our "look" everyday!
Really cute pictures. Wow his hair is curly!
Lol that is so funny. I wanna straighten Zoe's hair to see it without the curls but she is only 2.
Yikes!
Oh that is too funny! Looks like he had a great attitude about it, though!
I don't think it worked :)
If you want to wander down my road I’m home.
ha! that's hilarious, what a good sport!
Cute shots. He looks so "pensive!"
Your son is so cute -- but I think the curls looked better -- LOL.
ha ha - that is why my hair looks like without the flat iron!!
How funny!
Well, what can you say! He has hair that doesn't want to be straight!
kudos to the boy....what a great sport ;) funny stuff
LOL! Great sport! Too funny! Thanks for stopping by my blog.

What a head of hair!
Oh my! I don't use a flat-iron, I use a large ceramic curling iron to straighten my hair (sounds wrong but works!).
Ha ha- better luck next time ;)

*giggling*
I hair that flips in all the places I don't want it to flip. It's so annoying. Anyway, I think I'm the fail with my flat iron, I can't get that damn thing to work.
Can't live without my flat iron! I love those pics of your son though. He should live without a flat iron cause his curly hair is amazing!
LOL! That boy needs to keep his lovely curls.
LOL!!!
WHat did you do to your son?! At least he took it like a big boy! :)
http://www.thewannabewahm.com
So I am think that it didn't work?
What a good sport! he is still cute!
Oh my gosh...you're too much!!! LOL
Haha! At least nobody got hurt. :)
That's awesome. The straightener didn't stand a chance.
lol love his expression!
I'm guessing that's a no! : )
Well at least now he knows he can never have straight hair. Kudos to him for trying. He is adorable.
Dang, Woman!! How'd you talk him into that??!!
(BTW, SO cute!!!)
freakin' hilarious!
Giggle.
very cute blog fodder.
That is hilarious!!!!
Such a good sport. I cannot live without my flat iron.
Hmmm, You might want to see if you can get a "refund" ;-)
I can never get my flatiron to work!
I just gave you an award on my blog.
You get points for trying something new in my book.
LOL but he's still adorable :)
Too cute!!! He is a handsome boy! This made me laugh because it made think back to using a crimping iron on my husband's (then boyfriend) hair to crimp his mullet. bbbwwwahahahahahah
Cece
Funny. That's great that he let you try and take pictures.
LOL! At least he was willing to be a guinea pig =)!
So cute and funny!
Future blackmail. LOL
That is funny!
Happy WW!

Oh my goodness. That's too funny!
That's hilarious!
That is really funny! He must be a really good sport!
I can't even figure out my flat iron.
haha didn't work too well! I love my CHI iron. It works wonders on my hair...though it's not that curly!
Did you plug it in?
He's handsome!
I wouldn't be able to live without my flat iron! How cool he let you do that!
Wow. Just wow, BV.
Your son is definitely a good sport!
-Francesca
He is a brave boy.. and don't let him straighten them. I would kill for those curls
I have an award for you on my blog
There's no stopping those curls I guess.
Happy WW!
It's rockin'! He looks like the guitarist of an alternative band!
Well, it sure does make for an interesting hair style... :)
I think he looks awesome!
and so shiny!!
LOL
That is cute! It didn't quite work, now did it.
He is a great sport!!! And a cutie!!
That's a "yeah, no" kinda thing. I can't believe he let you!!
He really was a trooper to let you do that! Guess that's a "not gonna happen again" thing! LOL
Um. Didn't quite work? :)
Hmmmm.... I don't get it. I have the flattest hair on earth so I'm not sure what a flat iron is or is supposed to do. Is this a success or a miss? Wow...clueless on more than technology...go figure. lol
LOL!! I love his expressions!
His hair (not flat ironed) is to die for!
Well, that answers that question.
so..what you're saying is, he has learned to embrace his curls? These pics are priceless!
What a good sport... Girls love the curls though... hehee but the pictures are funny with his expressions..
Holy 131 comments and holy hair! I love the pics of the flat iron- gone wrong. I can't believe you came by my little ol' blog when you have a comment audience of over 130! Thanks...
I am a new follower and wanted to say hi! These pics are fabulous. I recently invested in my first Chi and I have to confess I'm not very good with it. Maybe your son can give me some pointers?
I think he could start a new trend! I'm sure dreds got the same reaction the first time someone sported them. My hair couldn't be straighter. Am always envious of curls.
I'm surprised he let you fool around with his hair! ha! He could set a new hairstyle though. What do you think?
Oh boy - I don't know quite what to say! That is an interesting...experiment?? LOL
Happy Wednesday!
Agh! He's still a cutie though.
Hmmm, I'd be taking it back! LOL!
ROFLMAO!!!!!!!! Er... the flat iron is supposed to make his hair straight, not more curly! Heeheehee
Justine :o )
Your son is very cute, and a great sport!
Hey at least it was worth a shot. TOO Funny! Following from MBC, would love if you would follow back. http://www.guessingalltheway.com
Now that there is funny! Reminds me of my first flat iron experience. I had no clue what I was doing and it showed.
Ha ha, I'm guessing that's not exactly the look you were going for. As others have said, what a good sport for letting you try it.
Can I please met your kids!! They have got to be hilarious!
That is too funny!! Not sure it worked out so well. Maybe he needs some straightening cream too. Haha!
He looks so pleased :)
Really, he couldn't be more freaking cute. Really. What a great kid. I can see it!
oh dear lol
That is hilarious!
Isn't that look kind of "in"? Some of the guys on the soap I watch have that look. So...can't be that bad:)
Um, lol!
Well, it's a look.
Oh lordy! Poor guy, well he could start a new trend ... lOL ;)
I use my flat iron every day, but if I had curls that were adorable like his, never.
Such funny pictures.
You are so wrong, but he is so cute!
Hugs and Mocha,
Stesha
That looks pretty awful.
aww..he is such a cutie!!
thanks for sharing..
LOl such great photos. Doesn't look like it worked to well. LOL I love my flat iron!
I can't believe he let you take a photo, let alone put it on the web. I took photos of my ds last night of him flexing his muscles in the mirror in my bedroom...and he deleted every one of them...there went my blog post - lol. I'm so lucky none of my kids got dh's hair - it's just like that...although longer. Thanks for stopping by on my blog :)
TOO funny! It looks like he's trying to keep himself from cracking up.
BTW... 157 comments on this post? WOW!
I'm assuming you had it on the super de duper setting, too.
He needs to embrace those curls!
Hmmm, not so much, huh?
It might take more than a straightening iron!
oh dear... maybe you should leave his nice soft curls alone?
bwhahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Looks like something I would do! :)
I can't even believe he let you do it! And post photos. Hilarious!
That brought a needed smile to my face. :)
looks curled to me lol poor kid
LOL. What happened?
He is such a good sport :)
One word for you: WOAH.
I soooo have to laugh, I have curly haired boys with the exact same photos - we all had a good laugh, my girls would sit around with the flat iron and see if they could get their hair straightened, mostly looked like they plugged themselves into a light socket :)
Kristin
Wait a minute....that's a popular hairstyle in my little town.
Great pics, though I'm thinking the experiment failed. My kids would have killed me in horrible ways before letting me post pics of them on my blog without their hair perfect. Yours is a great sport!
Have a great weekend,
Raven
Oh, he is a cutie! What a great guy to let you do that to him, then post pictures of him on your blog.
What a good sport...and here I was thinking there wasn't a limit to the flat iron! Flat iron..meet your match.
