Easy straight hair?

I straighten my hair. But, straightening it takes FOREVER since I have such thick hair. Is there anything I can do while I blow dry my hair to make it so it's a little straighter before I straighten it with a flat iron? Maybe there are some hairstylists out there who can help. How do you guys get it so pin straight right after blow drying???? It drives me nuts!! Please help!!!

Washing your hair the night before and allowing it to air dry, depending on your hair, could make it straighter. When I blow dry my hair it is a mess, but when I air dry it comes out perfect.

Try using a hair straighting gel on your hair before, you blow dry it and use a low setting(cool) on your blow dryer, not high.I wish i had your problem, my hair is straight, i'd like some body in it. To get body, I have to dry it upside down, so try to hold dryer straight down on your hair, and use a large round brush, made for blow drying and dry sections at a time.

I have very thick hair too. I think I have every strand that I was ever born with. I takes for ever to straighten/dry even with tricks but what works best for me when I do it myself is...

1. I apply a leave in conditioner or lite hair oil-I love aveda products.

2. I part it off in 4 sections (front to back/side to side) and clip down.

3. Blow dry 1 section at a time 1 row at a time w/ round roller brush with a dryer that has a heat concentator nozzle on it.

4.I usually try to get a trim every 4-6 wks. (If your hair is longer that 8" layers are nice/easy to maintain/%26amp; gorgeous with/without color).

This process still takes anywhere from 30min-1hr but I notice it cuts down on flat iron time, if any at all.

When I blow dry freestyle I tend to get a puff ball and look like simba (from lion king). It takes forever to dry and even longer to straighten! No other short cuts....sorry!!!
