I have straight hair but I have the same problem .... i've tried just about every product on the market and none helped . Then I began blow drying it straight with a frizz cream and it worked wonders, also you might want to switch your current shampoo and conditioner to Therma Silk , it's specially made for people who use flat iron's and hair dryer's so it won't damage your hair.

Depending on how wavy/curly your hair is and what ethnicity you are there are several options. A chemical relaxer may be an option and usually, depending on the texture of your hair will keep it straight for eight-ten weeks.
Other less permanent options include using a flat iron and an anti-frizz serum.

Make sure you trim off the split ends. I'm going to include step by step what I used from pantene - and it WORKED on my hair - granted it took a few days for the product to really start affecting my hair but the results are AWESOME.
Shampoo
Before getting into the shower, gently brush or finger-comb your hair to loosen up tangles and residue.
Wet hair and pour a small amount of Pantene Smooth & Sleek Shampoo into your palm.
Rub your hands together and gently massage into the roots using the tips of your fingers. (Careful! Vigorous rubbing can cause strands to break.)
If you wear makeup, pay special attention to the hairline.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water to remove all of the shampoo.
Condition
Conditioning is key to creating shine and preserving hair health.
After shampooing, carefully remove excess moisture by squeezing your hair with a towel. (Be gentle. Rubbing and twisting with a towel can break the hair.)
Squeeze a small blob of Pantene Smooth & Sleek Complete Therapy Conditioner on your palm and spread it over your hands, then apply it to your hair.
For super shine, condition the entire strand, starting at the roots.
For volume, condition only the middle and ends of your hair, where it's most susceptible to damage.
Styling
It's easier to apply styling products to hair that's just damp, so towel off first.
Squeeze a palmful of Pantene Get It Straight Gel or Smooth Down Frizz Control Smoothing Crème into your hands and rub them together.
Distribute the styling formula evenly by "clapping" sections of hair between your flat hands and gently pulling downward.
Blow-dry
Use the hot setting on all of your hair to accelerate the drying.
When hair is about half dry divide it into sections so you can concentrate the blow dryer and brush on one area.
Use clips to divide the top front and sides, then blow-dry them one at a time using a flat brush (smaller bristles work best). Once the top and sides are finished, you can move to the back.
A flat paddle brush works best. Its wide surface area spreads hair out and keeps it taut, which aids in the straightening process.
Follow the brush with the blow dryer, keeping the blow dryer about five inches away from the hair.
Too much heat can cause damage. Once hair is mostly dry, reduce the heat and add a nozzle. Start from the roots and follow the brush down, keeping the hair taut but not stretched too tightly. The cooler air locks in the style you want.
Set Your Style
A generous spritz of Pantene Stay Smooth Hairspray Flexible Hold will keep your smooth look in place for hours.

I have naturally curly hair also. Try Redken All Soft Conditioner, Biolage Shampoo (for color treated hair. A lot of times the color treated shampoos have extra moisturizers), Joico Silk Result conditioner, or Sebastian Laminates conditioner. Also use ceramic tools and brushes. They help protect you hair. Also make sure to keep your hair trimmed regularly. I take care of it and use my ceramic straightener (section off your hair and straighten small strands at a time and take your time) and it comes out straight and shiny. Make sure to give your hair a few minutes to rest before you go outside. With the heat and humidity lately if you go right outside you will have done all that work for nothing. Trust me!!! :)

Try using a straightener on it. It will keep if from frizzing too. And also be more controllable. Check out the products at your local Sally's Beauty Supply.

Well you might need a perm. A perm will straighten your hair for up to 8 weeks and as long as you keep it moisterized, then you can flat iron it to give it different looks.

You have to blow D-O-W-N on your hair. You don't blow A-T it, you blow d-o-w-n your hair.
First, you need to wash JUST your scalp and not your hair. Your hair gets the shampoo when you rinse.
Next, be easy on your hair with the towel--don't f-r-a-z-z-l-e it dry with the towel (YOU GUYS,TOO)--use your fingertips on towel, on your scalp, to get keep water from dripping,
T-H-E-N , only s-q-u-e-e-z-e your hair with the towel.
Do you get my picture, yet??
Be e-a-s-y on your hair. Let it air-dry mostly.(if you can)
Then, before you dry it, you HAVE to use something professional on it, to help it react to whatever you do to it.
If you have big hair after you blow it dry, OR straighten it--You are DEFINITELY doing something wrong!
Don't use hot air and DON'T get too close to it while you are drying.
Don't dry in one spot too long.
ONE more thing. NEVER use too much product on your hair.
Professional products may SEEM to cost more, but they are concentrated, smell better, rinse cleaner and LAST LONGER, because they don't take much ,OK?
Redken is GREAT!
That's all I have to say.
