Straightening Hair and Frizzy Ends

[SiAnn]

I asked my hair stylist what her secret was to straightening my hair because like pinkfrangipani and pinksugar mentioned, I could never get it as straight as her and my ends as smooth. She told me it was practically impossible to do a "salon grade straightening job" yourself because you just can't get the angle and leverage needed to pull the hair straight. Unless you have some real bendable arms she told me I'm outta luck.

Just an update, I've stopped using serum when my hair is wet. I've been using a straightening balm before I blow dry and then using the serum afterward. It seems to have helped a little. My hair still isn't smooth and sleek like I dream, but I'll take any little thing that helps. Thanks everyone for your help. I'll be trying out some of the other tips from this thread. I'll let you know how they work out for me.
