    Egg whites and whites only don`t stink. I never used them, but lots of my High school friends did. Yes I was in the "freak" crowd. But to get to the science of the question hair curls due to Sulfur bonds froming between protein subunits that make up your hair. So Water alone will not work. You can by some gels that will help you keep it straight. But the best is Egg whites as is has avidin in it. So it will not smell, act as an anti bacteria angent and will weakly associate with the sulfurs in your hair to stabilize it. So good products use DTT or betamecapto ethanol, to stabilize. These smell slightly sulfury, and you need lots of perfume to cover it up. Also these are expensive salon products.

    But egg whites will work, also flour and little water will work (acts like glue to hold anything up). One of the best spiking combos was very similar to the ingredients of a cake, with out the baking. However bigest problem with these solutions is they will work too well, and it will not be a flowing soft straight hair.
