Ok, well I know what you're talking about I have the same problem. First of all if you dont already do so, shampoo twice, but make sure you wash it out. Its good for curly hair. Then once out of the shower towel dry your hair. I'm also gonna tell ya, that straightening serum is not gonna be enough, sorry. I would go out and buy a de-volumizer, i suggest John Frieda's DownPlay, it works great for poofy hair. If you dont get it, that's your choice. Also I suggest using some sort of serum to protect your hair from the heat of the flat iron, also get it/don't,your choice. Then put however much of that straightening serum you need into your hair. Then if you have one, use a round brush to blow dry your hair, or you can sleep on it, but blow drying it will make it straighter. Then just turn your straightener on whatever heat you need and straighten your hair, then use a little bit of hairspray to make it stay.
I know its high-maintenance,but its worth it in the end.
Hope this helped!

Ok iI have the same problems so I can give you some good advice (or atleast I hope lol). I also own a CHI straigtener and then I got the Farouk Silk serum (which is the best product I have ever found and helps protect you hair from heat damage) Ok here are the steps:
1) Wash and condition hair in shower (don't completely rinse all conditioner out, leave a little but not to much or you will end up with oily hair) tip: try using Thermasilk shampoo and conditioner it is really good for using with heating products like blow dryer and straighteners etc.
2) Towel dry your hair and then blow dry your hair. Stop blow drying about half way through and then add some of your serum (of any sort that you want to use) and brush very well. Finish blow drying.
3) Once your hair is COMPLETELY dry add some more of your serum (depending on you hair length use about a dime sized amount in the palm of your hand and rub between you hands and then smooth throught your hair thoroghly. Brush your hair again to get as many tangles out as possible.
4) Section out you hair using hair clips and then use small amounts of hair to start straightening. Tip: I would start with the back of your hair that way when you are completly done straightening all of your hair you can go back over and do touch ups.
5) When you are done if you still have some friz (which you shouldn't but it is possible) Use a very small dab of your serum to smooth out your hair
Hope this helps you out!

ok right here we go, I went to Paul Mitchell so i think of i will help somewhat. a million. definite! they are great! the biggest mistake is once you attempt to apply a flat iron in the past your hair is genuinely dry. 2. in many situations a around brush is acceptable. even though it ought to be the way you're keeping your blow dryer. you want to apply a defuser that facilitates "objective" the airstream" and you in many situations want to attempt it down the hair shaft, upwards lifts the cuticle and motives that uninteresting and or frizzy seem. 3.i admire the paul mitchel great skinny line... it incredibly is astonishing! 4. I had a chi and that i enjoyed it (even though it became into very pricy) now I even have FHI this is a knockoff yet basically as astounding i think of. 5. N/A my hair is basically type of wavy in some spots. 6. on line or Barnum 7. definite it could! The protectant facilitates and determine you supply the product time to dry, because of the fact having something damp on your hair will fry it! wish that i became into some help!

You have to use an anti frizz product first. Blow dry your hair until totally dry. Take your hair in sections. For example pull half of your up in a clip and as you straighten sections, keep letting more hair out of your clip until completion.

Sleep with your hair wet.
Wake up, straighten it.
Then add your anti-frizz stuff.
