Hair Straighteners Help?

Ok, so i've always had trouble straightening my hair, it just never stays straight. I thought maybe i wasn't doing it properly but i recently used my friends new one and it worked really well. Hers would just glide down my hair where as mine will stick and get very annoying. I'm looking for a new straightener and some tips on straightening. I straighten my hair nearly every day.





Would you be able to tell me of some good straighteners that aren't to expensive and some tips on straightening??

Well, I use the Remington Wet-To-Straight straightener (I never use it on wet hair, though) and so far that's the only one I like using. It has different settings for what kind of hair you have (it eplains that in the manual). They're pretty cheap, at Walmart or Target, I paid a little over $20 for mine and after 3 years of everyday use, it's still working perfectly (and I have really, really naturally curly hair).





As for tips on straightening, go slow, but keep the iron moving. If you go too fast, it wont straighten it well, and you'll just need to keep going over and over the same strip of hair.





Also, sectioning off your hair helps, the way I do it is I leave my bottom layers out, clip the rest of my hair on the top of my head, then when I'm done with one layer I'll release another one of the clip, so on and so forth.





There's also products out there that make it easier to straighten hair, like there's a Bed Head one that works with the heat from the products to help straighten hair and keep it straight.





You could also try to straightening treatments, they're like a perm (with the chemicals and stuff) but they make it easier to straighten your hair (beware, though, they don't actually STRAIGHTEN hair, they just make the process easier.)





Well, I could keep going, but those are your basics. Hope I could help!

Get a Chi. i know they are a bit pricey but they are some of the best straigheners you can buy. also, buy tresemme straightening gel. put it in when hair is damp, almost dry, then when dry, straighten. Always use a heat protectant on your hair when you straighten it though.
