try and grab the very top layer of hair and hold your hair straight up. then straighten up instead of down. i don't really know.. my mom does that. lol

tilt your head and then put as close to your sculp as possible then push down with your hand where the line is and hold it for awhile like 10 seconds or something

well if you have naturally sorta straight hair you probly dont have to do all the way to the roots, if your hair is curly, then try holding your hair up vertically in little bits. that way your straightener can get closer to the roots! hope this helps you!

To prevent the creases lift your hair above your head and straiten up then when you get to the middle lower and finish straitening the section...It works everytime! Hope i helped! Tell me how it go's

after your shower then blow dry your hair straight and then take your straightener and straighten it, go all the way down without stopping. and make sure you hold the two sides of the strraightener down tight. try to get as close to your roots as possible, if there is still a crease try wetting it down a tiny bit by the roots (but not too much otherwise it will become un straightened)or spraying hairspray on your brush then combe through your hair with it, pulling your crease straight. hope i helped! if you ever need advice you can always drop a note in my inbox! rate me! <33

try straightening your hair in thin layer. Also, when straightening the top lift the hair high off your head and straighten from the roots down to the ends. Be sure to be gentle with the ends!!!

When you straighten your hair, don't stop while your pulling it down your hair. That's what creates the dent. I get that all the time. If that does happen, just straighten that section again, but a little quicker that before.

alex answered Tuesday November 23 2004, 9:28 pm:
Just don't press so hard at the roots...and if you need to press hard at the roots, then just tilt your head sideways and that will get you closer to the root!!

lxlWantiinY0Oh answered Tuesday November 23 2004, 8:08 pm:
hey babe <3
neways this is what you should do get a friend or family member to first straighten your hair with a regular iron.. like wut yu use to iron clothes with. you should lay your head down on a towel all comb out and have a friend or somebody go over ur hair with a iron then flip the other way so that they can iron the back of your head too. then theres usually a dent because the iron is so hot so get a flat iron(straightening iron) and go over iit. me nd mii friends do this all the time & it comes out gr8t!

riley1124 answered Tuesday November 23 2004, 6:55 pm:
That happens somtimes to me too you just have to hold the straightner less slanted and try not to hold on such an angle to cause the dent. The dent is usaully caused by the satrightner being held on there for a long time and is cuased form being held on an angle.
