be natural-that will match you better. before straightening check how it will look and will it cause any side effects or breakage(coz your hair grows naturally curling, others will be straight so you may need frequent straightening to maintain uniformity often.ok) or if all these ok .then make your choice.How to straighten curly hair with a blow dryer?
i think your hair is perfectly fine and i always wanted curly hair but my hair is 2 straight
try frizz-ease, and some professional hairwax, or spray that will lock your hair into place after it is blow dried
get the blow dryers with the brush attached to it. then just straighten it. you can use straightening gel, frizz free gel, and or spray.
Get a curling brush, pull it through your hair so your hair is straight, then blow dry it. Repeat over and over till your hair is dry. Then turn your straightening iron to the highest it will go (without burning your hair, of course) and straighten your hair. After you did that, blow dry your hair on ';cool'; to help it set.





For frizz, try Fructis anit-frizz system. Good luck!
use a round brush when you blow dry


and use a frizz-ease product
Get a round natural horsehair brush, with dense bristles, and smooth it through your hair while blow-drying. Also, a SMALL amount of hair gloss can do wonders for flyaways and frizz, just don't use so much that you have that greasy, wet-head look and put it in before you blow-dry. I know all about it, hon. I'm bi-racial, and all I got is the frizzy white-girl fro.
i have curly hair also and i think blow drying makes it worse so what i do is rinse (not shampoo) my hair add a lil conditioner let it air dry and then straighten it and if i need a lil frizz control i add more conditioner plus i think just rinsing ur hair makes it softer and shiner... it really cuts frizz down by only washing ur hair 2 times a week with shampoo and the rest of the time just rinse ur hair when ur in the shower :)
1. Apply product.





2. Use a metal round brush, wrap your hair around it and blow dry section by section.





3. Flat iron.





As for product - Tigi products are now being sold at Publix and in Wal-mart salons. These are salon grade products. I enjoy my curly hair and use the curls rock line offered by CatWalk. I also love BedHead products when I straighten my hair (which is rare these days. I have come to realize that I am the envy of all the straight haired chics :)





Good luck!
Step1 To straighten hair, begin by shampooing, conditioning and towel-drying hair.





Step2 Apply a heat protectant product to your hair, paying special attention to the ends.





Step3 Place a quarter-size dollop of straightening balm in your palm. Rub your palms together to distribute the product over your hands, then massage it evenly through hair.





Step4 Comb through your hair with your fingers while gently blow-drying it on a low setting. This removes excess water.





Step5 Pull your hair into three sections, two at the sides and one at the back. Clip the two sides up.





Step6 Select a small portion of the hair from the unclipped section to straighten.





Step7 Using a thick, round brush and beginning at the roots, gently pull the brush through the hair to the ends while blow-drying it. Pull the hair away from your head, stretching and straightening it as you go.





Step8 First pull the brush through the underside of your hair so that you expose it directly to the heat of the dryer. Once that area is mostly dry, switch to the top of the hair.





Step9 Keep the tension consistent and evenly distribute heat over the section of hair you're working on. This ensures uniform hair texture and prevents overdrying of certain areas.





Step10 Once that portion of hair is straightened, continue selecting and blow-drying small portions until that section is dry and straight.





Step11 Repeat the process on the two other sections to straighten your entire head of hair.











remember...





Always point the dryer down as you blow-dry hair; blowing hair upward can cause frizzies.





Tame flyaway hair with an anti frizz serum or pomade. Place a few drops in your hand, rub gently to distribute it, then apply it your hair according to the product instructions.





To achieve flat hair, finish styling with a ceramic flat-iron designed for hair after following the steps above. Choose the heat setting for your hair type, and allow flat-iron to warm before using. Select portions of hair, as per blow-drying directions, and slide heated flat-iron along hair, beginning close to the roots and going past the ends of hair, repeating if needed to fully flatten hair.





As with all electrical devices, be cautious when using blow-dryers and flat-irons around water and/or children. Unplug blow-dryer and flat-iron after use, and keep the flat-iron out of reach until cooled to prevent burns.
i have the same hair,sucks doesnt it! Anyway i get out of the shower and towel dry then i use a few pumps of Redken Heat glide and Redken Anti-snap.It helps reduce frizz and breakage as well as help blow dry straighter.I then blow dry with a round brush and then i straigthen it to get the shiny sleek look.I spray Matrix Shine spray just before applying the straightner and after im finished a light touch of hairspray to maintain the no frizz look
All you need to do is blow dry it and then flat iron it.
well use a round brush with your blow dryer and get rid of some frizz by applying shine serum, gel, and/or mousse. also by straightening it it makes less frizz.
Hey, I have curly hair too and it depends on your hair type, but it's easy if your hair is finer. But all you need to do is:


1. Use conditioner on your hair or a leave in conditioner spray after you get out of thWalgreen's and once your hair is towel dried apply a heat protector cream or spray where you can get from anywhere, walgreens, target, ect, you can try L'Oreal Studio Line Hot Straight Heat Protection and after Frizz Ease Straight Answer Straightening spray, I personally don't use anything which is really bad for your hair, but my hair is very fine and straightens easily.


2. After applying heat protector/straightening spray, you can use a concentrator nozzle attachment for the blowdryer if you can find one (it can probably be found in a beauty supply store) but you dont necessarily need it, I flip my hair upside down and brush all my hair down towards the floor, and use a flat brush that has hole where the bristles are to allow hair flow so you dont burn your hair off, and start at the root and hold the brush and the blowdryer at an angle on which the blowdryer is right on top of the brush, with your hair inbetween the brush and the blowdryer. Start at the root and just brush your hair but follow the brush w the blowdryer on top of it. Do that until your hair is completely dry. Its ok if its still curly.





After drying it, now is time for the hair straightening. First get a hair clip that is medium sized, or really just something that will hold your hair up. Clip up most of your hair but leave about an inch of the section across down. Just starighten it section by section and as you go along you unclip the hair and let some down to straighten and then clip it back up ect ect. When your done with your whole head add some shine spray for the frizz and your done! Make sure you straighten from the room all the way down the hair shaft.
Try to use de-frizz serum. They have many types that work.
use either a round brush or a


paddle brush while your hair is


still fairly wet. clip up the upper


section of your hair and work


your way up to the crown of your


head. as for products, i recommend


john frieda's straight answer. (:
