its only the heat thats damaging. if 1 was lowest heat and 20 was highest (heat) and u did ur flat-iron on five and ur blow-dryer on 20, the blow-dryer would b most damaging cuz its # 20

both are pretty much equally damaging... but there are loads of things you can get for your hair to protect it... um... i personally think that a straightener would be better for your hair as the end result because a blow drier will only dry your hair and is not as good of a styler as a straightener

i think straightening your hair is more damaging.. blow drying doesn't seem to damage mine!
it sounds ok to use the hair dryer a few times a week.. go ahead

Straightening is worst but use a heat protector that can be applied every day before styling, (There are some that say apply after drying) that minimizes damage.

straightening it because your applying direct heat to it, if you want to start blow drying make sure you dry it well with a towel first and dont have the heat up too high

I would blow it dry rather than straighten it.

If you use a low setting neither one should damage your hair. It helps if you have all the dead ends cut off first though.

its definately safe to blowdry your hair daily, it depends on what kind of straightner your using....if your using chemicals to straighten your hair then that WILL damage your hair...i have a straightner that DOES NOT damage your hair only available in canada i believe but its amazing

yah that would b fine.
i only do it every now & then.
P.S.
dont say "blow dry". u shouldnt assosiate the word "dry" w/ "hair".
its much better 2 say "blow out".
