So, you want to straighten your curls for a day? Here's some easy do it yourself tips.

2. Wash and condition your hair according to your hair type.
3. Apply a thermal protection spray such as our It's a 10 Miracle Leave-in Spray or Simply Smooth Magic Potion to protect your hair from the heat implements.
4. Apply a smoothing elixir like our Biomega Behave Smoothing Elixir to smooth and protect the cuticle.
5. Dry hair with a blow dryer till 80% dry.
6. Gather up hair into several sections and clip hair on top of your head. You will be drying the bottom layers first and work up.

To curl the ends for a polished look, take your brush and pull the ends under. Finish your styling with a blast of cool air if your hairdryer has this setting. You can use a flat iron with taking small sections like when drying the hair for a polished look. If you want more or a large smooth curl, curl your hair with a curling iron.
