I have wavy fine hair.  I bought a Solia.  Is it a good idea to air dry really good and then flat iron.  Or will I get better results if I blow dry it good.

Does anyone know a good hairstylist that can blow dry hair really straight in Ocala?

I have a Solia too, but my hair is very curly and fine, 3b. For me, blowdrying my hair first works best and then the flat iron. Make sure you use a heat protectant before using your Solia. I use the Heat Glide from Redken and I love it. I hope this helps.

Well I bought the Redken Heat glide.  I let my hair dry overnight.  The next day I put the Redken and used the flat iron.  It looks great!  Im not good at blow drying my hair.  In Miami, my friend knew how to straighten it really good and leave it shiny and bouncy.  Where I moved it's hard to find someone to do it.

Thanks!
