Use a shine spray and heat protection do it one layer at a time. then go over your hair with the straightners again but not in layers this time just perfectin it. then spray with a hair spray with vitimins in. nxt time you could also use a intense conditioner befor you straightin it as this gives a glossy effect.

Rember your straightners can not do everythin. The main reason for frizz is when the scalp is still damp so give ya hair a real blow dry. this also makes straightnin easier

Tips on straightening your hair?

If you have really curly hair, try using some straightening and de-frizzing product first (try Rediken straightening balm, it閳ユ獨 great). Blow your hair dry. Thoroughly. Do this by first gently detangling it with a comb and then blow-drying it for a couple of seconds. Then take your brush, preferably with natural bristles and dry your hair part by part, straightening it as much as you can, gently pulling each tress with the brush.

Once done, apply a product to protect your hair from excessive heat. Prepare your hair iron, and preferably use the one with ionic or ceramic plates. The ones that make steam while straightening are also great, because they lock the moisture in your hair.

if you're thinking about straightening it everyday, you probably need to start with a really good conditioner and shampoo. i know herbal essence makes a type for people who want straighter hair. secondly, you could get a blow dryer that actually straightens a little as it dried. because the best time to style hair is when its wet. use something like the conair ion shine. using the the brush that you can attach to the actual blow drier itself, you can actually get your hair a little bit straighter as you dry and before you straighten. then straighten your hair layer by layer if possible. perhaps if you feel like your hair is too thick, go get it layered. its amazing how much hair a layered haircut can take off. after straigtening, you might want to lightly spritz over your hair with a conditioner/water mixture. i recommend spraying some of that solution in the air and then walking under it so that you don't get your hair too wet.

I have really thick hair and I always straighten it. What I do is shampoo really well then add a dry/damaged hair conditioner (garnie fructis). Then I dry my hair and use my hair striaghtener. I would recommend using it really hot. That is why I use the damaged hair conditioner because then the next time it isn't heat damaged. I would also recommend using some frizz-ease cream (its like honey-milk, something like that). That makes it less thick and will make it straighter.

I suggest using a ceramic flat iron if you want to straighten your hair yourself whenever you want. The CHI ones are very good. Investing in a good flat iron is really worth it (over $150 at least). They will straighten your hair in less time and you'll get much better results. Then, use a serum like BioSilk to make your hair look shinier.

If, and I say "if" someday you decide to permanently straighten your hair, I recommend the Japanese Thermal Hair Straightening. I'm not sure but I think only asian hair salons offer them. I have 2 friends that only swear by that hair straightening method. Do a search on that and you'll see.
