  • A wide tooth comb
  • Big round comb with wild boar hair material
  • Products that protect hair from heat
  • Hair conditioner or anti-frizz serum
  • Shampoo. Wash your hair and use conditioner as usual. You will be drying your hair straight, so consider using a straightening shampoo and conditioner to reduce volume before drying.
  • Pat your hair dry. As soon as you step out of the shower, gently blot the water in your hair with an old towel or t-shirt. Don't squeeze, rub, or twist your hair, as it can get ruffled if you do. Use only an old towel or t-shirt to absorb any dripping water.

  • To comb. Use a thin tooth comb to smooth your hair and remove any tangles before drying. It is much better to start drying when your hair is not tangled, as the round comb can get caught in the tangles and damage the hair.
  • Use products that protect hair from heat. The products that protect hair from heat have a polymer component that latches onto the hair and keeps it from burning when drying. Squeeze a coin-sized amount into your palm, rub your hands together, and smooth your hair from base to tip. You can use a smoothing cream or foam with a heat protection if it doesn't get on your hair. Check the product label for sure.
    • If you don't have a heat protection product, you can use a dry conditioner or anti-frizz serum with a foam gel or gel to help it stick to your hair. This is better than drying your hair without using any products.
    • Avoid using too many products, as this can make your hair look weak, even greasy instead of lustrous.


    Clip the upper hair. Gather the upper hair and pinch or tie the ponytail on top of your head. You'll start drying the underlying layers first, then gradually releasing the upper layers to dry until all of the hair is completely dry. This way you can blow dry and straighten hair more evenly.
  • Wrap a small portion of hair through a round brush. Select a section of hair wrapped through a round brush near the roots. Place the comb close to the head, wrap the hair through the comb and let the ends hang down. This step will help you tense the part of your hair during drying, which is important for straightening your hair.

  • Turn on the dryer and keep the dryer head about 5-8 cm away from the comb. Usually, you will use a medium heat setting to minimize damage to your hair. However, for frizzy hair, you will need to dry it on the hottest heat to make sure it is straight.
  • Aim the dryer head down while using the comb to stretch your hair from root to tip. Hold the hair-stretching comb and comb all the way through the hair shaft from root to tip, while pointing the dryer head down and moving the dryer the length of your hair. The comb and dryer have to move synchronously.
    • For flat hair, you should pull your hair from the bottom up. If you want your hair to lie flat, brush it down.
    • Either way, be sure to point the dryer head down to allow the air to travel from the roots to the ends. This keeps the hair shaft flat and prevents frizz.
    • Move the dryer back and forth across your hair so that heat is not concentrated in one area.
  • Repeat several times until the hair is dry. Usually one blow-drying is enough to dry part of the hair. Continue drying that portion of hair until it is completely dry and straight. Don't forget to brush from roots to ends and stretch your hair. Make sure the dryer head is facing down.
  • Continue drying each section of hair. Continue drying until all the hair underneath is completely dry, then release the next layer of hair and repeat the above steps. Keep drying until the hair is completely dry from top to bottom. advertisement
  • Method 3 of 3: Perfect the hairstyle

    1. Blow cool air into your hair. Switch the dryer to a cool setting and complete the top layer by blowing cool breeze down the roots to the ends. The cool breeze will keep the hair shaft from lying down and prevent messy hair throughout the day. This step also helps you to spot damp spots. Any remaining damp hair must be dried again.
    2. Apply a serum to keep hair shiny. Use an anti-frizz serum or argan oil to keep hair silky and straight. Rub a little bit of product into your fingers and run it through your hair, concentrating on the ends, where it dries more quickly than the rest of the hair.
    3. Use a straightener if needed. Wavy and curly hair can be difficult to straighten completely with a hair dryer. Your hair may be shiny but not very straight. If you want the perfect straight hair, you can use a straightener to straighten each section. advertisement

    Advice

    • Avoid humid environments. Your hair will curl if it gets wet, so try to keep it dry and away from water. Wear a hat when it's raining outside.
    • Clean hair with dry shampoo. A single blowout of good hair will take a lot of time and effort, but you can keep your hair looking good for days by being careful to keep it from getting wet. The roots may need cleaning after a few days. Sprinkle dry shampoo or baby powder all over your hairline, wait 5 minutes for the powder to absorb, then brush your hair until it's smooth.

    Warning

    • As with all electrical appliances, be careful when using a hairdryer and straightener near water and / or small children. Unplug the dryer or straightener after use and keep the straightener in a safe place out of reach until it cools down to avoid burns.
