Guide to Straighten Curly Hair
Before we start on how to straighten curly hair, let me ask you: Do you really want to do this?
First of all, do learn to appreciate God’s given gifts.
Curly hair are indeed the envy of many, men and women.
It just oozes with masculinity when oiled right.
But then again, when the occasion called for a more straight jacketed occasion, where you want to look ivy leagued and spiffy, maybe straightening can be an option.
My advise is do not go for the permanent or ionic / rebonding treatment.
Invest in a good and affordable Babyliss hair straightening iron.
Next, Apply Kerastase’s Nectar Termique and run through the straightening iron from the roots to tip.
It’s the root that must be looked out for.
The base of the hair must be managed if not all hell breaks loose and the treatment will be second class.
For curly hairs, the effect of straightening will make the hair appear longer and in most cases, thicker too.
So, make sure you carry a good haircut and style accordingly because you do risk lumping too much hair on one side, thus making your head looking pretty much misshapen after attempting to straighten curly hair.
A no no, if you ask me.
Straighten curly hair is an art but make sure you set your expectation right. You will not want a thin flat hair.
What you’re looking is to shape a look that may look more formal and serious.
Thus, you have to repeat the process more often that you thought and that is why it is of utmost importance to treat the hair right!
