How to Straighten Men's Hair

Straightening a man’s hair is a great way to make him look different and create straight strands of hair. You can easily cause damage to the hair or burns on the person if you do not have the proper procedure guidelines. The process can be simple if you have a specific set of steps to follow. It should take no more than one hour to complete the straightening process.

Materials Needed:

• Straightening iron


• Fine tooth comb


• Hair dryer


• Straightening cream


• Texturizing pomade


• Hair clips
  
  

Instructions:

1. Use a straightening iron with a ceramic plate. It should be 2 inches wide and thin on one side. Choose one with a high wattage and a heat control setting.

2. Wash your hair and dry it completely with hair dryer. The hair dryer helps to straighten the hair before the process.

3. Turn on the straightening iron and allow it to heat up while you proceed to the next step.

4. Use a fine tooth comb to part and spread straightening cream through the hair. It should cover the hair from root to end. Make sure you do not add too much. Also apply texturizing pomade through the hair. The two products protect the hair from heat damage.

5. Section the hair into four sections. Pin three of the section up with hair clips.

6. Take a small section of hair and grab it at the root with the iron. Pull the iron slowly down the hair shaft until you reach the end of the hair.

7. Continue steps 4-6 until the entire head is complete. You should try to pull the iron the direction that you want the hair to lay.

8. Apply a small amount of pomade to your hand and rub them together. Apply it only to the ends of the hair shaft.
