How to straighten hair to own self?

the first thing you have to do is buy a good, professional flat iron. if you have anything you got from a wal mart-type store or a grocery/drugstrore throw it away. cheap flat irons are the only ones that will ruin your hair. here are some suggestions:

1st: hai convertable flat iron

2nd: paul mitchell smoothing iron

3rd: chi

all of these can be easily found on ebay for 50-80 bucks on average.

to flat iron hair:

after shampooing and conditioning apply a normal amount of finishing product to towel dried hair.

. (PROFESSIONAL HAIR CARE PRODUCTS ONLY)

*try aveda confixor or paul mitchell supper skinny serum.

then blow dry hair straight with a medium tension flat brush. once hair is 100% dry, comb small sections of hair at a time then follow it with your flat iron 2 or 3 times per section (follow with comb each time). sections should be about the size of the plates of the flat iron. start at the bottom of your head and work your way up.

that's it. the most important thing to remember is if you want good results you have to use professional tools and hair care products. never buy ANY hair color or ANY hair products from drugstores or grocery stores.

*note: ALL professional hair products sold at grocery stores and drugstores are either expired or counterfeit. these stores have obtained these products illegally. professional products like aveda and paul mitchell are only sold to professional salons and hair care retailers.
