1) It’s crucial that you begin with
clean hair. Wash it thoroughly and towel dry. To cut down
on frizz, add some anti-frizz solution to your damp hair
and use your fingers to distribute it, adding more to the
ends and less at the roots.
2) Blow-dry your hair on low setting
until it is completely dry. If your hair dryer has a cool
setting, use it. It may take longer to dry but this will
also reduce frizzy hair and add shine.
3) If you have thick hair, use clips to
section off your top layer(s). After testing the
temperature of the flat iron, begin on the underneath
layer in two-inch sections, working your way from the
roots to the ends. Keep the iron moving at all times to
prevent kinks. Generally, you should move the iron quicker
the closer you get to the ends as they require less heat.
If you desire, you can flip the ends over or under,
depending on your preference.
4) Set your style with hairspray. Do not
spray before you’re finished or you will get product build-up
on your appliance.
5) When your flat iron is cool, clean it
for the next use. Do not immerse in water. Read the
instruction manual for usage and cleaning before you get
started.
