Well, a lot of times where you live plays a role in the reason your hair gets frizzy again. If you live where there is a lot of humidity, you can forget trying to get rid of frizz..there is just too much moister in the air. However, consider that many black women have many different types of hair. Some hair is just too brittle for flat irons to work..also, your temperature settings may be too low, or your technique is bad. When you flatten your hair, start at the root, and slowly glide the iron down to the ends. You may need to repeat the motion on a section of hair to really get it straight. Also, if you are just starting to straighten your hair, you need to give it time. It is called "training". In other words..your hair will need time to adjust to straightening. So of course for a while your hair wont be as straight as you want..but over time, it will begin to look more the way you want it.

they have a great line out now called CHI I work in a salon and use it on everyone. Even African American hair( after a relaxer its great) they have a shampoo conditioner silk infusion and a thermal protection spray for flat ironing. It works great it will keep your hair flat and it will not frizz. PROMISE.....................
