Answer 1

One option is to have it permanantly straightened at a salon, we call it 'relaxed' at our salon.

You've probabaly heard of the 'wet to dry' straigheners out now, they'll be good on your hair. Your hair should stay straighter for longer.

After coming out the shower i towel dry my hair slighty,
put my parting in and apply a blowdry lotion on my hair.
I recommend 'LOREAL hot2straight' it's in a pink bottle and usually on offer-bonus!
Run the blowdry lotion through your hair with your fingers paying more attention to areas that become frizzy, make sure not to apply too much though as this may cause it to look greasy.
I think a blowdry lotion is vital!

I find it easier to leave my hair for about an hour before i dry it, but if you haven' the time then you can blowdry it straight away. Your hair shouldn't become frizzy in the mean time as you would have applied a blowdry lotion which should hold down the frizz.

When blowdrying it's important to section your hair and use a vent brush or paddle brush. It's vital to use the right brush! AVON have a good range of brushes, if you have the cataloge have a look through it and it should give an idea of what brushes to use.
Blowdrying is the most important part when styling your hair>If you were to rough dry your hair it will take you twice as long to straighten it.

Finish off by running your ceramic starighteners through each section of hair. It's worth spending round £100 on a pair as they will save time and won't damage your hair as much and should last you a long time. Mine are from a salon and have lasted me over two years and i use them nearly everyday!

If you decide to buy the 'wet to dry' straighteners you should also apply blowdry lotion. I usually rough dry the roots first then run through the hair with the straighteners (They make a sizzleing sound so don't be put off). The wet to dry straigheners arn't recomended to be used everyday.

Another idea is to go to a salon and get your hair blowdried there to see how they blow dry your hair. Watch how they do it and what products they use. Ask them what products they are using and why, maybe invest in some of their products if they do the job for you.

Hope this helps!

I will put it to you this way...I have curly hair. If I don't put gel in it, it'll frizz up in a BAD way. I LOVE my hair when I straighten it, but it takes an hour, it DRIES my hair, leaves me with serious split ends and makes my CURLS worse. You can go have it chemically straightened, but it'll grow back and it costs ridiculous amounts of money (about $700). Unfortunately, there is no EASY way to straighten it out. The best way is to blow dry it (FULLY DRY) with a large round brush, and run a straightening iron through afterward. I do that and skip washing the next day to get oils back into it. I definately would not straighten it more than 3 times per week or your curls will be 10x more unruly. I'd love to have straight hair, but it wasn't in the cards for me. Work WITH your curls instead of against them. Just be glad you have hair...lol!

Answer 3

Remington Wet 2 Straight Straighteners and Trevor Sorbie Straightening Balm. These straighteners dry your hair from damp.
Don't bother with the Revlon Straight and Dry Straighteners, they're useless.

Answer 4

Try a Ceramic Hair Iron with Adjustable Temperature.

Answer 5

Wet your hands, then stick your fingers in the electric socket. No, don't. I'm afraid you'll find it's straightening your hair with ceramic straighteners that gave you the frizz in the first place. Lay off them for a while. Curls are back.

Answer 6

alrught using the flat iron takes to long and you can never get the edges or the roots good.....this is kinda black but anyways go to any beauty supply and purchase a "HOT COMB" it should be made out of steel or iron all you do is turn the stove on let it sit on a hot burner for about 2 min after you wash and blow dry hair , condition lightly....and i mean lightly condition hair with some heat protection oil moisturizer.Make sure when the comb is on the stove the handle is not on the burner just the comb part....use the hot comb like you would use a normal comb but watch out it is hot and when it begins to cool down sit it back on burner for a minute and repeat....if the comb is smoking when you sit it back on hot burner take it off and wipe off wit papertowel or towel.Gives hair shine and extra straight no frizzness

Answer 7

Heard of the Wet 2 Straight irons?Dries hair and straightens at same time.Saves so much time.

Answer 8

This totally happens to me.
Shampoo your hair like normal. Condition it. But don't rinse the conditioner out, except at your roots. It won't be greasy.
Then dry it. You also could use a heat spray, but they have never worked for me. Or you could get a leave in conditioner. I've never tried those b/c my method works great for me. And it also makes your hair softer, shinnier and healthier.
Try it!
Good luck!

Answer 9

Many people use a hair straightener. But I have myself also used a clothes Iron to straighten my hair. Works Great! Just don't get it to close to your scalp.

Answer 10

Have it chemically straightened at a hair salon.
