Life-saving products to straighten your hair without an iron: hydration, protection and zero frizz
Straightening without damaging
The key to a good straightening is complete hydration and eliminating any trace of frizz and, yes, you can also get straight hair without applying heat
ByMargarita VelascoStraightening with an iron or perfect mastery of the dryer and brush usually yield the best results as far as the concept of 'straight hair' is concerned. However, exposing the hair to heat sources too regularly ends up damaging it, something that is not long in coming to the ends.
To achieve a more natural straightened hair effect and, above all, without damaging the hair, it is necessary to follow a routine in which hydration is the base. Focus efforts on conditioners, masks, and oils or sprays that are applied after washing. Those cosmetics with smoothing and anti-frizz properties will always help to smooth hair.
Of course, avoid any gesture that could frizzy the hair, such as drying it too vigorously with a towel -letting it air dry or using a turban with cotton fibers also works-, also avoid brushing it dry and always do it with a wide-toothed comb The rest, allied cosmetics like these:
