What's the best way to streighten hair without using a hair streightner??

Question

I've tried blow-drying it strand-by-strand while keeping it tight, but it doesn't work too well on my hair. Is there any other way??

Answer 1

Insert something metal into an electric outlet!

oh... and close your eye when you do it... trust me!

Answer 2

By straightener, do you mean chemical? If so, a flat iron - ceramic and/or tourmaline is the best. If you meant no flat iron, then a styling dryer. The styling dryer is like the ones used in the seventies. Not the pistol dryers but it is large and almost shaped like a large comb but you can switch out the attachments to use either combs or a brush. Conair has a good one, it's called the ION Shine 1875 Styler. I've attached the link for it below.

My hair is short.....(less then shoulder length) so I just put it in a low ponytail and either air dry it or if you want it dry right away just blow dry your hair WHILE it's in the ponytail.

Sometimes the ends are still a little non-straight but just brush it does and maybe with some moose from the dollar store. Hope this helps!! And It works on my and I have EXTREMELY thick hair! Good bless!

1. use a heavy shampoo and conditioner that will make the straightening process easier, like Redken Smooth Down
2. use a silkening product like biosilk while your hair is still wet
3. blow dry your hair using a large bristle brush in 1-2" sections at a time - it will be time consuming, but if you do it right, it'll last longer
4. once your hair is dry, get a good holding spray like "soya want flat hair" by Big and Sexy Hair and divide your hair into one inch sections. spray a little hair spray and use a really good ceramic flat iron. use a fine tooth comb to hold behind the flat iron and run through your hair while straightening.

Answer 5

I am a hairstylist, and some of my clients don't like me to use a flatiron, but want really straight hair. First prep your hair with a straightening balm, then get your hair 80%dry, then section by section, use a big round brush, pulling the hair down. After you are done, use a finishing balm, with a high shine. Good Luck!

Answer 6

blow drying it straight didn't work? are you sure you blow dried every strand for long enough because sometimes the length of time and the amount of heat play a big part. if blow drying really doesnt work you can always consider getting your hair chemically straightened at a salon of somethin

Answer 7

This remade i exploit is surprising right here is what you will choose... 2 small rubber bands Brush 2 massive elastic bands Mouse I promise this therapy will paintings First take bathe get out get maximum of water out of hair then make 2 tight braids then wrap them around like a bun sorta then save them in over evening then wella you ought to have high-quality beachy comfortable braids yet do no longer brush the curls they gets ruined -hopes this works out nicely!

Answer 8

Oh pleez u never heard of a hot comb or one of those heavy duty ceramic flat straighteners?
You really need to get out more.

Oh, for a "ghetto" version you can use a clothes iron too just be sure u test the heat before you use it.
Happy Styling

In the late 60's and early 70's before hair straigthener, we laid our long hair across the ironing board and our roomies or best friend ironed it for us and I'm not kidding

Answer 10

You have to blow dry and then press with a flat iron.

Answer 11

get a round brush and a straightening product and then take the brush and just blow try it while the brush is going straight down
before then use the straightening product
