| Straightening Hair Tips | • In order to make the hair well protected, it is recommended to apply a mild shampoo and strong conditioner. In addition, with the aim of preventing hair from getting damaged, it is necessary to keep off from any heat – styling tools. In case if regular deep conditioning would be used, this will give hair somewhat healthier bounce and shine. Only wide – toothed comb and good detangling products are to be applied for the hair after any kind of straightening treatment has been conducted.
• If someone wants to add a bit of shine, a drop of silicone serum is to be added, and the tresses will bounce. A little care will go a long way in maintaining the straightened tresses.
• In case if someone straightens his or her hair with the help of a straightening iron, it is necessary to use it with great care. Moreover, the straightening iron is to be used sparingly, as it can be extremely damaging to the hair, if used often.
• As for the blow – drying hair straightening process, it is necessary to apply some hair protective product. In addition, a blow – dryer is to be applied with a strong air flow, and not just a very hot one. In case if the hair is straightened with the help of a blow – dryer in a regular manner, it is advisable to use some treatment in order to protect the hair and prevent it from getting dried out and from having frazzled ends. This treatment is to be applied at least once a week.
• In case if a straightener is applied on colored hair, this can only result in hair damaging. It should be pointed out, that though it does not mean that either of these are dangerous or hair damaging by themselves, though when hair straightening is combined with hair coloring, it can simply be too much for the hair to handle.
• It is strongly recommended to book a consultation with a hair straightening specialist and get his opinion on whether any hair straightening method would work with what there is already on the hair. As a rule a professional hairdresser takes something, called “test strand”, which is basically a clipping of the hair, and pops it in to a bowl with the chemical straightener. This will let assess the hair’s ability to remain in good condition after the straightening process. In case if this so – called “test” shows that the hair should better not be straightened, this should be considered as a piece of wise advice.
• For a temporary blow out of straightened hair, the most effective way for a perfect finish is considered to be the straightening balm application to every single section. After that it is possible to give the poker straight hair with the help of a large paddle brush, and at the end of the whole procedure, somewhat softer curved hair is possible to achieve with the help of a round brush.
• The hair should not be straightened with any hair straightening product, in case if:
The hair has already been permanently colored or tined with some high volume strength peroxide, or if the hair was bleached. And even when only a little is left on the ends, it is necessary to have these ends cut before hair straightening process. As for the semi or non – permanent colors, they do not usually influence the ability to straighten hair chemically;
Someone is going to swim in chlorine water;
The hair is fine and blonde. Although, it is possible to straighten this kind of hair, it can result into dry and damaged. In addition, such hair will frizz easily.
