The Way to Straighten Hair

Apply a good straightening product to your hair. These products come in many forms, including serums, creams, gels and balms and will protect your hair while straightening and keep it in place at the same time. If you're starting with really dry hair a spray on product will work best, but if it is still quite damp something heavier like a balm would be more effective. Serums are really good for thick hair and add shine once your it is straight. Make sure not to use a mousse or anything "volumizing" as these can have the opposite effect of a hair straightener.

Combing ensures that the straightening product is distributed evenly and that your hair is free of all tangles and knots.

When blow drying, make sure to point your dryer downward while moving a large, round bristle brush down small sections of hair. Make sure to get a good, quality dryer like a ghd Air Hairdryer or any Wahl hair dryer. Cheap drugstore dryers may be tempting but a good quality dryer will give much better results and will be worth the investment.

Using a flat iron or hair straightener should only be done when it is completely dry; and like your dryer, your straightener should also be of good quality, preferably with ceramic plates.

When using a hair straightener, work with one small section at a time and don't make the temperature too high. A hotter straightener does not automatically equate to straighter it and may only result in damage. Always keep the hair straightener moving to avoid burning your hair and only go over a section of hair 3 times at the most. If it still isn't achieving the desired result, then work on an even smaller section of it.
