Use hair products that protect your hair from heat. This way, you can lock in the shine and moisture your hair needs after you've straightened it. There are many products out there you can choose from-some are high end while others are drugstore brands. Which ever one you select, make sure you put it in your hair when it's slightly damp. Oh yeah, use john freida original hair serum after you're done straightening it. It makes your hair soft and smooth. Hope this helps!

make sure before you always use a heat protector before you straighten your hair. My favourite is Redken Heat Glide, it is amazing and protects your hair from damage and split ends. Also try some leave in conditioner which will provide your hair with nutrients and minerals to keep it strong and healthy, than use a blowdry gel and than apply rhe heat glide. If redken is too expensive for you, try something from pantene.

First of all get a 100% ceramic straightener with an adjustable temperature setting. Secondly, wash and straighten only once every other day. On the first day, wear it down, and on the second day, pull up the sides if it's not as neat as you'd like. Your hair will dry out more if you wash it every day. Thirdly, use a leave-in conditioner. I have naturally curly hair and straighten it. I do not use product in my hair. I found that my head is itchy if I do.

Tips for straightening hair?

Well everyone basically said what I was going to say.

It all depends on how often you plan on straightening your hair. If you plan on doing it like 4 days a week, you're going to have to really protect your hair.

-Use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner.

-You should deep condition your hair around once a week.

-Spray your hair with a thermal protecting spray before you put any heat on your hair.

-Make sure you have a good, quality straightener that won't damage your hair badly. Many of those from stores like Wal-Mart and Target aren't really completely ceramic straighteners.

-Get a serum for your hair. You can't completely protect your hair from damage. It will get some damage which half the time your stylist cuts off when you get your hair cut anyways. The serum will help smooth your hair and look shiny.

The more people are able to invest into their hair and hair products, the better their hair looks. That's just the truth. I suppose it all depends on how much you care about your hair.
