Q&A for How to Make Hair Straight with a Curling Iron

Start with clean, dry hair misted with thermal protectant and divided into 1-inch thick sections. Run the iron through each strand from root to ends. Use firm even pressure and repeat if necessary.

You can create curls with a curling iron or rollers. If your hair has natural wave, you can enhance it with a curl cream and a diffuser.

Yes, but it's more effective if you have an iron with a large barrel (at least 2 inches). This method also tends to work better on loose curls than on very curly hair.

Yes, you can straighten your hair without applying heat protectant spray beforehand. However, doing so is not recommended. Without protection, the heat from the iron may damage your hair.

No, a curling iron will not help with dead ends. The only way to make your ends look better is to get your hair trimmed.

It is fine to do that; however, your hair may not be as straight as you want it to be when you wake up.

It is much easier to do it with a heat product. There isn't much else you can do but try a hairdryer with high heat and a brush.

Any straightener will work, but some are better quality than others. I would just stay away from extremely cheap ones, as they are more likely to damage your hair, or even become a fire hazard.
