QUESTONS ABOUT :HOW TO USE FLATIRON

[hair]

I have questions about using flatiron like:
1. When to use flatiron
2. When to use flatiron with dry or damp hair
3. Do I need to flatiron hair first before aplying oil.
4. Can I use flatiron on unwashed hair.
5. Do I need to aplly something on my hair first to flatiron.
6. Is all flatiron good.
7. What I need to do first before I flatiron hair.

The reason I asked this questions because I never used and flatiron until today. The flat iron I use is Belson GOLD N" HOT.

What I did first is wash my hair and towel dry but it's alittle damp and use flat iron. My hair didn't burn off or anything. It did get soft but dry in a few second. Is it the flatiron i using. Well after flatiron I apply Organics by africa's best (SHEA BUTTER &TEA-TREE OIL MOISTURIZER) AND (CARROT OIL)AND small amout of wildgrowth. I see the differnts on the top of my hair but what about the ends it's still bushing body like. Exempal: Where the rubberband stop at! It does give my body in my hair but not much. But it didn't flat hair down straight like when have a wrap when finish. Well I didn't condition my hair today. I look for that after hair wrap look or volum

Please.......do not use a flat iron on damp hair, you hair has to be completely dry.

Usually to flat iron your hair you should wash, condition, and then you can put some sort of heat protectant on your hair while its damp. And then when your hair is competely dry, you can begin to flat iron. And if you want, when your hair has dried , you can add some oil through your hair, then flat iron.

Do not use the flat iron on wet hair, or dirty hair...
I air dry mine for a day and keep it in a loose bun(after applying a mixture of oils and conditioner as my leave in). When my hair is alomost dry, I run some coconut oil over it. And pull it back more securely. Once completely dry I start with small sections and use wildgrowth oil on each section comb it through with a small fine toothe comb and then press each sections(going over it no more than 2 times for most of them). After flatiron I then wrap my hair and leeave it that until I'm ready to go out the door. The shower helps 'set' it. I finished it with some Loreal Smooth Intense anti=frizz Serum.

Pretty simple ladies... thanks for posting this question and these answers. I am soo tired of sitting under the hooded dryer once a week (it's too hot) so i'm going to try the ceramic iron after I air dry and see how it turns out.

I plann to use the ceramic iron. Yesterday it happens that I find the flat iron. I try to wrap my hair the first time at home with lota body but I want to try another wrap substance. Then i change my mind about wrapping my hair. I didn't neither condition my hair.

I wish there another supplies that can do good.
