Does anyone have anyh good tips on straightening hair?

i have wavy hair, and straightnen my hair. I usually just blow dry it then straightnen it and it stays straight til i take a shower next. But of course I live in a very dry area. Where there is no humidity what so ever. When I go to humid places I use sunsilk straightning shampoo%26amp;%26amp;conditioner then straightnen it. So hope that works....

well I don't know what straightener you have and it really dpends alot on that but if you have the right tools then it should work out fine. You should definitly use 'hot straight heat activated straightening cream' from L'Oreal though to help protect your hair and to help enhance the features of the straightener. you should say what the straightener is, like if its a conair then of course its gonna suck, if you say sedu then i'm gonna say that there must be something wrong with you! sorry but sedu is the best. EVER.

I have very thick and wavy hair it takes miracles to get it straight but it is possible. I usually wash my hair use a good shampoo %26amp; conditioner i use Aussie) I either let air dry or sometimes I blow dry but that tends to make it frizzy. after i was it when its damp I put in a frizz serum.. Once completely dry I use my straighting iron which i purchased from Sally's beauty supply its the best the name brand is Gilbert is French I think it was about $40... Its a really good Iron I bought it like 3 years ago and it works just fine..The only other tip I can give you is to section your hair while straighting it that will make bone straight just do small sections at a time.

They keys are to do one small section at a time, make sure hair is dry before you start so you dont fry it(unless you have one of the irons that you can use on wet hair), and use the proper products!

Look for something that protects against heat damage (CHI makes some great products)to put on your hair prior to using the flat iron and after using it use a shine spray(I use the Tresemme Shine Spray....a little goes a long way, its cheap and doesnt weight hair down) to really make the hair look healthy. Spray the shine spray on your hands and just run your hands gently over your hair (avoiding the roots and crown)that way you avoid putting too much on and looking greasy.

Since I havent seen your hair I hate to give more specific advice so ask your stylist or go to a salon and ask what products they recommend. You can get good stuff at drug stores or stores like Target though!
