Perfect Straight Hair... how do i get IT?

Um.. maybe it's because your hair isn't naturally straight? I know that sounds stupid, but hair doesn't like to be anything other than natural.  Your hair just wants to be itself. Have you considered working with your natural hair type? Maybe switch washing methods (click washing routines, more washing routines, and CO routine for wavy or curly hair) I got healthier hair within a month of treating my hair differently.

Also, there's no such thing as an intelligent iron that "adjusts" to a hair type. Although that would be cool if it existed!

i know exactly what you mean my hair used to be like that too and i went and got my hair relaxed cause i had wavy hair i still straghten my hair like with a flat iron it just takes a little bit less time and doesnt get as frizzy if i go out in the humid weather, but i regret not having the more permanent hair straightening done and now i have to wait till my hair grows out:( but anyway you should either get your hair relaxed or permanently straightened depending on what you want to do with it, if you just want your hair not to curl out or flip and stuff then just get it relaxed so when you straighten it then it wont do that and you can also wear your hair wavy or cruly too, but if you want a more permanent better solution then you should get your hair permanently straightened

Maybe it's gotten cheaper lately? The price does depend on your hair length and texture, the quality of the straightening process, and possibly the strength of the chemicals (?).

A chemical relaxer ($200-400 says one site, $275-400 says iVillage) costs less than permanent straightening.

The treatment I quoted (also known as Yuko, thermal recon, whatever) are different than relaxers are are high range.. they're "supposed to" last for 4 months. But that's best case scenario. More quote ranges: $800-1500, $300-1000.

I'm not advocating straightening treatments. Everybody who goes for one, get a STRAND TEST done first before the actual treatment!!!!!

Sorry for the confusion

Chemically straightening is probably the easiest way.  No need to fuss about flat irons that only last a little while.  It's probably less damaging than using flat irons because if you want your hair straight everyday you have to use it very often, chemically straightening will condition your hair.  Try EPO Straightening System.  It's new Japan straiughtening system.  Pretty fast and easy, took about an hour someting.  Depending on the length of your hair the cost will be different.  My hair is shoulder length layered hair and I payed about 80 bucks to do it. This system is pretty good, doesn't flatten your hair.  Your hair will flow beautifully and will be very easy to handle.  My hair use to be crap and I hated it, now I could shake my head around and my hair would go back to position without using my hands.  It flows beautifully in the wind.  I would show you a picture of it but im in china right now and i don't have a webcam.
