Question

i am about to get ready for my school production and i am having trouble with my hair straightener. Smoke comes out when i reach the end of my hair

Wat am i doing wrong and how can i fix

Answer 1

You're not doing anything wrong. What you see is not smoke, but steam! Here are the steps to straightening hair:

1. Always use heat protection. It may take a moment but it is so much better for your hair.

2. Turn your flat iron on as high as you think your hair can take. If your hair damages easily, don't risk ruining it, and wait the extra minute or so for it to heat up. One good hairstyle is not worth months of repairing damaged, broken hair.

3. Put up most of your hair. In most people's hair, you can normally find natural layers that want to stay together. Put up all but the bottom layer in a clip or a hairbow.

4. Straighten the bottom layer. Do this layer, and possibly the next, quickly, and only go over them once. No one will see these unless you are putting up your hair, or it will cause a puff to the top layers because of a pony mark or something. Once you are done with the bottom, let down another layer, and straighten it. Repeat until all of your hair is straight. This actually does save time because you will be straightening smaller sections at a higher heat, thus requiring less time on each section.

5. When finished, brush all of your hair together, and, if you would like, spray with hairspray.But if you wish to put hair spray in your hair you will have to wash your hair for the next day.

I hope this helped, I have been straightening my hair for awhile now, and it's pretty easy! Hope this helped!

Answer 2

do you use product that protects your hair? if so then that means that the product is burning not your hair which means your good but if you don't have protection and steam is coming that means the heat setting is far too high which can cause damage, good luck :D

Answer 3

Your hair might be damp, or you might have put a hair product in it, or it might be greasy,

or your straightener is very old, and you need a new one.

You should get a new straightener every 6 months

Answer 4

first, make sure you're using a heat protective spray before you start straightening! it'll help keep your hair from getting fried.. i use the kind by tresemme, its like $4. then make sure you're using a good straightener. a cheap one will most likely damage your hair. try using a ceramic one. and if its digital, don't turn up the heat too high on it, put it on the lowest possible setting.
