People with curly or wavy hair will pull, blow, iron, treat or do practically anything to get straight hair. There are methods for permanent hair straightening but they are extremely harmful for our hair. Also they are quite expensive and, often the final result is not worth their cost.
So if you have curly hair you should consider sticking to the usual methods of the hair dryer or iron. Both produce heat that is damaging for our hair, however you can reduce the damage with leave-in nurishing products. In addition you can have the choice of your natural look from time to time.
Brushing and blow drying
Blow drying is the most common straitening method. It requires to hold your hair straight with a comb or brush and blow dry it, so that it will stay in this form. This method is simple, moderately effective but depends heavily on the skill of the person doing it. It’s much easier for a stylist to do than for you to do it on your own hair. It is slightly damaging, will not work on extremely curly hair, and frizzes out in humid weather.
Flat Iron
If you have really curly hair and the blow-drying + combing method doesn’t work, try using a flat iron. After washing your hair, you dry it and use a flat iron to get it straight. It uses the same principle to get your hair straight but it is more intense and effective on nearly all hair types. Flat irons will work with almost any hair type. If you know what you’re doing it can be done relatively quickly. Unfortunately, it is more damaging to your hair than a blow dryer and will frizz out when humidity is high.
