For thick and frizzy hair, use a smoothing shampoo and conditioner. For thin, flat hair, use volumizing products. Once the hair is washed, dry it with towel and then dry with a hairdryer. This will pre-straighten your hair, so you'll have less work to do with the straightener.

Apply a small amount of straightening serum or cream to the ends and mid lengths of your hair and massage. This will help make your hair ultra-smooth, elegant after drying.

Avoid applying these products to the roots, as they weigh hair down.

4. Use a good hair dryer.

A good hair dryer is essential when you try to dry your hair for straightening. The more power and heat from a hair dryer can provide the easier and faster straight hair.

5. While brushing divide your hair into three layers

one at the crown of your head, one in the middle sections and at the nape of your neck.

6. Use the right kind of hairbrush.

The type of brush you use while blow drying your hair will impact the way your hair turns. If you want to add volume as you straighten or add a slight bend at ends, use a thick round brush. But if you want straight then a paddle brush is your best option.

7. Use proper technique to dry the hair.

Use proper technique to dry the hair straight. Take a section of hair between two and four inches wide and hold tight with the hairbrush. Keep hair taut while drying is the most important technique in achieving straight hair.

You should also make sure that you direct the airflow downwards - the hairdryer nozzle must be directed towards the ends of the hair as you dry. This keeps the hair cuticle down, giving you a smoother result .

8. Apply some finishing product

To define your style and give your hair a little extra shine and control, apply a pea amount of finish product to the ends and mid lengths of your hair. A shine serum or shine spray will both do the trick. If you are worried about your hair fall flat or losing form, mist with a light coat of lacquer, holding the can about six centimeters away from your head. This will ensure that your hair is straight all day (or night!) long.
