Those are called Fly Aways. Use an anti-frizz serum on wet hair, and heat protection before you straighten. After, use Paul Mitchell Gloss Drops or TiGi Headrush to flatten those.

You can use Biolage Silk Therapy. It works great. You only need just a teeny tiny amount after you straighten your hair. After that, you're set

I do that when I straighten my hair but what I notice is that my hair feels and looks greasy after couple of hours. I only straighten my hair couple times a month due to the fact that i Feel like i am burning my hair more compared to using just a blow dryer. My hair is somewhat straight so blow drying is enuf to get straight hair. just that to get pin straight look I have to use straightening iron. Is there anything I can do to minimize the greasy look from using those fly away control products??? (I only use dab of it or very little bit but I cant seem to control the greaseness that it results... )

A light body lotion works as well if you don't feel like buying additional hair products that would do the same.

Ill proably end up using some hair spray next time I straighten my hair. Well the thing is that my hair is straight its just that it flips out everywere at the bottom and that sucks so if i straighten it, it just turns out much better. So hairspray will have to do thanks everyone for the ideas!

Just use a couple drops of a hair serum like ARTec Shine and Frizz Repair. Don't overload on serums though. You only need a few drops (about 3-5 drops) to get the full effect of shiny frizz-less hair. Too much will make hair look greasy.

Also when your straightening your hair try to first blow dry hair straight with a hair smoother like Redken Heat Glide. This will help lessen frizz, flyaways, and make it easier to straighten hair. Then flat iron sections of you hair with a spray on heat protectant like Matrix Iron Smoother. It helps to protect hair from heat and it helps to hold the style. Then use a hair serum to finish.

Another thing that can contribute to flyaways is using too high of a temperature setting. Most people with normal thickness hair should use between 170-180 degrees Celsius. If you have wavy, curly, or thick hair you can go up to 200 degrees Celsius. If you use a temperature setting that is too high for your hair texture it'll dry the hair out especially the ends making them look frizzy and dull/lackluster.

i spray the individual hairs that stand up with hairspray until they fall so i don't have to hairspray my whole head.
