So I just straightened my hair recently and in this video I'm going to show you guys exactly how I did it. I begin by washing and conditioning my hair, and here it's still wet to prep my hair, I'm going to let it air dry overnight and to do that, I'm applying my leave-in and then on top of that, a bit of argan oil for shine and slip. I'M dividing my hair into four sections and detangling the hair and then I'm putting each section into a ponytail. I'M twisting the hair and pinning it down with a few bobby pins, and this is going to allow my hair to dry in a stretch state and give me that blown out look without any meat. The next day, my hair is all dry, so I'm going to go ahead and take it down, run my fingers through it and fluff it out before using any hype tools, I like to apply a heat protectant, and here I'm using hair insurance by Aussies, I'm parting, Small sections of hair and I'm using a wide tooth comb to make sure it has no snags or tangles and to get my hair as straight as possible, I'm going the comb shape method, so I'm taking a rat tail comb and running it down my hair right In front of the Flatiron - and this helps to smooth and separate the strands, I'm using my chiere Flatiron set to 410 degrees and I'm going down the length of my hair very slowly so that I only have to do one pass and that's what it's looking like. So I'm going to go ahead and continue that all over right - okay - so here I am all done - and here is my undercut - I have just gone to the barber shop so yeah that pretty much wraps up this video you guys thanks for watching and I'll catch. You next time bye,

RealAshiaMiller: FINALLY!!! I've finally found someone on YouTube with nearly IDENTICAL hair as me! Thank you sweet baby Jesus! lol Quick question... how long did this last?

Linette Sanchez: I love watching your videos! Seeing someone with different hair and routines than your own is really fascinating and awesome!

- 𝗦𝗮𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗩𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 -: Love the stretch overnight method. So much better than double heat by blowing out first. I'm going to do a flat iron soon it had been so long since I've done a real straighten. Next month will make two years for me who hoo! Xoxo ;-) 

Ashley Nunn: I have never seen anyone braid their hair and pin it like that to give it the blow dry look without the blow dryer. that is awesome def think i will try that method next time i straighten my hair. great video!
