4. Tie in a series of fabric hair ties.
Find a flat paddle brush or a round brush. Avoid wide brushes, as these are difficult to handle.
Remove them in the morning, or once your hair is dry.
2. Towel dry your hair to remove excess water.
Part your hair into 3–6 sections, depending on how thick your hair is. Keep all but one section out of your way using crocodile clips.
Keep your hair in a low, loose ponytail if you want to put it up. Putting it in a bun or braid will leave creases in your hair, making it appear wavy.
This method is best used to turn moderately curly hair into gentle waves. The result won't be as straight as a flat iron could make, but your hair will be healthier and more resistant to humidity. This process is also very easy, and it requires no special hair products.
1. Try this easy, gentle method.
Getting your hair wet is the first step to straightening it, so start by washing and conditioning your hair. To improve hair moisture and prevent frizzing, use a deep conditioner, or leave your regular conditioner in your hair for an extra two or three minutes.
6. Choose a brush.
If using hot air, apply heat protectant to your hair first. If possible, choose one based on natural oils, not silicone.
Tie your hair into a loose ponytail using a fabric hair tie, not an elastic hairband. Add a second hair tie about 2 inches (5 cm) below the first, and repeat at regular intervals.

5. Choose a blow dryer setting.
Take one thin lock of hair, slightly narrower than your brush. Blow dry this with the nozzle pointed downward. Brush slowly in long, straight strokes as you dry that section. Keep the brush under the hair and the dryer nozzle hovering over the hair. Move the brush and dryer at almost the same speed, with the dryer trailing behind just a short distance. Repeat if necessary until the hair is completely dry and straight, then move on to the next lock of hair.
Blow dry with cool air if you want to protect your hair, but be prepared to dry for up to an hour. For faster drying and a longer-lasting effect, use hot air. Hot air can damage your hair over time, especially if used frequently.
