![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/715-0/2019/02/vybiraem-strizhku-na-pryamye-volosy-46.jpg)
You can lay straight strands without using an iron, but this will require a hairdryer with a diffuser and a round brush.
It is very important to remember that straight hair should be combed well before washing, but after washing wet curls in no case should be strongly combed with a comb, since they must first be slightly dried with a hairdryer.
Otherwise, you can cause micro-trauma to your hair.

Besides shampoo, it is very important to use a balm or conditioner, especially if the hair is unmanageable... The haircut should be adjusted as the hair grows. On average, the hair should be renewed every 1.5-2 months, otherwise it begins to look not very aesthetically pleasing.
