Straightening hair problem?

after every time I straighten my hair

it always turns out to be really dry

and not shiny at all and tends to kinda stick out

i use a chi flat iron

and garnier fructis sleek and shine shampoo and conditioner

but I went to get a hair cut at a salon they only put in a shampoo and conditioner in my hair, blew dry it and then straitened it and it turned out like this

Oh I have had the same problem.

May i recommend some products? Use a straightning shampoo such as Sunsilk (the purple bottle) and then an Pantene Pro V makes AMAZING conditioners. The difference can be seen instantly.

And before you straighten your hair may i suggest using a heat protection thingy. Works wonders, and doesn't dry out your hair.

If not that you can always use an anti friz %26amp; shine serum. I use one from Pantene Pro V {yet again that company}

I hope that helps!

HMM I see the difference, well maybe u should ask them what shampoo and conditioner they used. Maybe this info might be of some use to you, I have noticed that when I straighten my hair soon after shampooing it, it looks shinier than when I straighten it after letting it air dry. I mean my hair doesn't look as dry as yours do in these pics but my hair is naturally straight, i just do it for frizz but see if this works for u. Maybe if you blow dry and straighten it right after getting out of the shower it might give u the wanted result, IF you are not already doing that, that is. Are you sure she didn't use anything else like shine serum or a volumiser or something? You should ask them what products they use.

Best of Luck!
