Curly Textured Hair: If You Have 20 Minutes

Straightening your hair requires some work, but if it’s done right, the look can last for at least three days. The key: Go light with the styling products.

Dry damp hair in small sections, using a blow-dryer on medium heat and a flat brush with boar and nylon bristles (this combo grips hair best).

Smooth out stubborn fuzzy bits with a small flat iron. Run a pea-size dab of styling cream over the hair’s surface to reflect light. Then mist with a fine hair spray to block out curl-inducing humidity.
