Some people prefer to wear their natural hair in its natural state. Others want to wear their hair straight. Here is some important hair straightening advice for those who want to straighten their hair with a flat iron or hot comb. Follow these tips every time you straighten your hair or you risk permanent heat damage.
Before straightening your hair, take the following precautions.
1. Spray hair with heat protectant
2. Rub a paper towel on the hair straightener. If this causes smoke or burnt patches, the straightener is too hot.
3. Test hair straightener on hair that isn’t easily visible. Try the hair at the back of the head. When you have straightened it, wet it with water and see whether it reverts back to its natural state. If it does not, the straightener is too hot.
Keep this in mind: There is no guarantee that straightened hair will revert back to its natural state.
It may stay straight forever if your hair straightener or hot comb was hot enough. Think carefully before deciding to start straightening, especially on a regular basis. If you realise that your hair has been burnt straight, soak your hair in protein (found in eggs, mayonnaise, and a few hair products) for a month or more.
