I want to straighten tonight, but Idk if I should blowdry before I flatiron or just do it from it's kinky unstretched state. I have curlformers and was thinking of using those to stretch before I flatiron. what do you do?
what kind of flatiron do you have? if its a high quality one you might not need to blowdry first...my sister has mostly 4b hair and one time i put her hair in a few braids and she sat under the dryer, and one time i just flat ironed her air dried-non stretched hair, and it still came out swangin...i have a solia iron...actually her hair came out straighter both times than mine does and i blowdry mine first...i think blowdrying sucks out too much moisture... use the curl formers or just comb or brush each section before you do a pass with the flat iron so that its smoother...and you'll probably have to do 2 passes.
I have a chi.
[QUOTE=Melody.Monroe;14020241]I get better results when I airdry overnight and then flat iron the next day. But when I let it airdry I twist into 6 sections. Then flat iron in tiny sections. Be havin' mad SWANG chile!
Blowdrying and flat ironing together makes my hair dry and lifeless
I use a Remington Wet to Straight flat iron with the chase method
Saves time, and I love how my hair comes out!

@Nonie what's a wet to dry pass. How are you doing a wet to dry pass if you just dried in the curlformers?
