Hi! Do you have a straightening iron? They are definitely the best tool to have to give you straight hair! I would try Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine to make your hair as sleek and shiny as possible.

Most people use a flat paddle brush to make hair straighter, but I use a round brush since it grasps my hair better, and I just use it to brush through my hair like normal.

What I do is let my hair air dry, then I flat iron it in sections. Make sure to use a heat protectant (I use VO5 Miracle Mist). I finish it off with Biosilk Silk Therapy to make hair smooth and frizz free.

Yes straight iron is the way to go. Make sure you use a heat tamer spray first so you dont fry your hair. Tresemme makes a good one.

You can blow dry it using a round brush or paddle brush.. I guarantee though it won't stay straight blow drying it though.

Hi,
Ok, first let me say, I have tried EVERYTHING since I can remember and now i have a perfect routine because my hair is perfect now - shiny and straight. I have naturally frizzy, wavy hair.
1.) Shampoo and Condition - I use pantene moisture
2.) Let hair air-dry for about 1/2 hour
3.) Put in some sort of heat protection in your hair - I use pantene restoratives breakage defense
4.) Blowdry any way
5.) Use a CERAMIC hair straightener - they are expensive, but the other $20 ones don't work. Its a good invetment (about $80) - it works wonders!!

Good luck

Yeah you can definitely straighten it by blow drying, but a straightening iron keeps it the straightest and smoothest. Even using a cheap ceramic one before I bought my Chi helped make it straighter than blow drying alone. Just make sure to use good products when blow drying to make sure it doesn't frizz during the day. I use a round brush for blow drying when I do it.
