"On behalf of Expert Village my name is Lizbeth Muller from Liz's Hair Design in Hollywood, Florida, and today we're going to show you how to straighten out curly hair. When you flatten the hair, you really don't press on. If you just take it easy and you're scared. Notice how it's still frizzy. Look at that. Notice how the hair is still frizzy. It's not completely straight. You have to really put the iron in there, and you have to go down and press on it a little bit. If you're scared it won't get as straight. Again, you just bring it straight down. I'll show you again if you hesitate, or again, if you take your time and you actually don't press on it. The hair is frizzy. I'll show you what I mean. I'm better with visual myself. I'll show you right now. Look how frizzy that hair is. If I don't go down on the iron and put a little pressure on it and I just do this, her hair is still going to be frizzy. Only a little heat. You've got to really put some pressure on the iron a little bit without squeezing it hard, because that's when you cause hesitation lines. That's what you need to do here."
