Long, sleek straight locks are beautiful, if your hair is shiny and bouncy. Flat, lifeless and straight, not so pretty. Read on to learn how to create sleek, straight shiny hair.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Pick a product that says it smooths and straightens your hair. That's because they help to smooth the cuticle while blow-drying and also create shine.

  2. Step 2

    Work your product into your hands and distribute into your hair starting from the roots and working down to the tips.

  3. Step 3

    Section your hair with clips to help organize it while you blow dry. Remember, all your hair needs to be dried evenly or you won't create that sleek look.

  4. Step 4

    Once each section of your hair is dry and straight, give it a quick blast of cool hair from your dryer. It locks the cuticle in place and prevents frizzing.

  5. Step 5

    If needed, go over strands quickly with a flat iron.

  6. Step 6

    Mist with a glossing spray for extra shine.
