I have very very curly hair. If I was it and add jel and air dry it turns out kinky. In the past I've tried to straighten it and just ended up with a great big puffy frizzy ball. The trick is all in the product and the flat iron. Heat matters!!!!
I have to seperate my hair into very small sections. Use a very fine toothed comb and comb each section before and right behind the flat iron. One time over each section isn't enough to get all the curl out. A heat protectant silk spray also helps.
It takes patience, lots of patience. But it can be done.

First: Use a heat protector on your hair. Make sure you get it EVERYWHERE.
Then seperate your hair into layers. If you want really straight hair, try going for 3 or 4 layers. Just leave a small amount of hair at the bottom and pin the rest of it up. Let some down once you've straightened each layer.
Spray some hairspray or wax on it, and your good to go!

I have pin -straight hair and to make it not go frizzy i use BIOSILK and iron it with CTI iron ( u can but it from JC PENNY) the biosilk is like 30 dollars a bottle and the straighter is $ 125 but for now just buy the biosilk it really does work. i always use it and the bottle lasts for like 7 month depend how much u pay, and if u don't find it in Jc Penny try and SALONS near by its very famous lol

First use straightening balm, Matrix has a great balm, blow dry it straight with a vent brush, then spray some heat protectant on it that protects and also straightens so it doesn't get frizzy use some shine spray after your done to tame the frizzies and add awesome shine, the Matrix line you want is called "Sleek Look". you will love it!

Use Matrix Sleek Look shampoo and conditioner. Blow dry you hair with a big round brush, by sections. Then use a flat iron. Make sure you are conditioning your hair, if it's dry and damaged it will be frizzy. Biolage have great leave in conditioners, and if they are not leave in, just leave it in. That's what my stylist recommend; it will give your hair more time o absorb the nutrients and style as usual.

i used to have similar problems until i realized when i did my hair mattered a lot. do you wash and blow dry then straighten? wash, let air dry for a little bit, blow dry about half way, add a little product like silk therapy or something else that is salon quality, then blow dry all the way. give more volume do it upside down. then comb and straighten small chunks at a time starting as close to the root as possible. works for me.

Ceramic flat iron. The one I use is HAI brand. Kinda pricey but sometimes you can get one on sale at a beauty supply store like Sally's.
