I don't know if this is available in the UK but V05 hot oil treatments (usually at drugstores in shampoo area) are great for dried out hair

There are a number of products you can use to protect the hair from the straight iron.

Big Sexy-Soya want flat hair.
Redken- Spray Starch
Paul Mitchell- Heat Seal

Are just a few. The whole key is to spray the product on the hair right before you iron
Example: Comb a small section to be ironed, spray the product, then iron. It does not have to dry completely.

Good Luck!!

do you really need protection from a ceramic iron? i thought having ceramic iron was you didn't have to worry about damage.
