I have a 95 Acura Integra GSR...I just got my head gasket done, BUT my car is still having the same problems it previously did. Before I got it fixed my car started smoking when I would turn it on, it eventually got to the point that it would smoke everytime I accelerated. Therefore the mechanics said it was my head gasket and fixed it. But I got it back and after driving it a couple days when I would start it it would idle under 1000, and if I didn't allow a decent amount of time for my car to be off, it would smoke when I turned it on. I can't seem to figure out what else would cause this problem. My car is not burning oil and the smoke is a whitish color. HELP!!!

It appears you would have an issue with the people that diagnosed and repaired your problem the first time. They either misdiagnosed your problem or performed the work incorrectly. Either way, I would bring it back to them under warranty.
