and smoke (or steam.. as i heard some people say) coming out of your hair/straightener, is that bad? no, i dont smell anything burning, but when i see the smoke/steam i get worried sometimes :/ and i know you guys might say turn down the temperature, but i'd rather leave it at 370.. because it gets the job done.

i suggest blow drying your hair to prevent it from burning so much with the flat iron. use a round brissle brush that has the aluminum casing to help you straighten your hair with the blow dryer. then BEFORE you flat iron, put a heat protecting straightening lotion in your hair. after your done flat ironing, spray some type of oil or sheen to your hair to prevent fly aways, frizz and dryness from the iron.
<--hispanic with thick, curly hair. it takes me 2-3 hours to straighten my hair and this is the process i do. |
