A super-straight, sleek look begins with hair that is properly cleansed and conditioned. Be sure not to over-cleanse your hair (this actually leads to increased frizz) and stick with a gentle, sulfate free shampoo like Get Clean!™ No-foam Shampoo or Get Fresh!™ Shampoo. Always use a rinse-out conditioner after washing - Intense Quench™ for thicker, drier hair and Featherweight™ for finer, oilier hair.
After cleansing and conditioning, apply a light leave-in that will moisturize the hair and keep it shiny and frizz-free throughout the styling process. For heat styling, we recommend Heat Wave™Reparative Blow Dry Crème which provides protection and moisture without weighing the hair down.
Your choice of defining product will depend on both your hair type and your preferred look. As always, apply your definer after your moisturizer. (Note: for tight textures, no definer is needed as this may lead to excess stiffness and 'poof'). For a sleek, shiny, barely-there finish, try Mane Tame™ Weightless Frizz Control. For more volume and lift, you can choose from a range of options that vary in strength. From strongest to lightest hold, we offer Hold Up™ Defining Serum, Sweet Poof™ Volumizing Spray, or Pop Life™ Volumizing Mousse. Cocktail them together or use individually to suit your needs.
For extra shine and protection, seal hair with Happy Endings Shine & Repair Serum. Gently blow dry hair (no more than 'Medium' heat setting). Once hair is completely dry, tame any fly-aways with a small amount of either Mane Tame (normal to oily hair) or Happy Endings (dry hair).
