It might be better since that's less heat styling than blow drying and using a straightener. But any type of heat styling can damage your hair- no matter what,I would recommend using some sort of serum or spray to prevent too much hair damage. Make sure that your hair is completely dry before you straighten it- otherwise it can get fried and badly damaged. After, use a good serum- Biosilk is great, it's available at most drugstores. You can also find a range of hair products specifically designed for African American hair types- it's usually in some part of the haircare aisle at drugstores or Target.

You could try using a blow dryer with attached brush, but I think it's better to use a good hair serum/oil, before blow drying and straightening. Or see if you can find a good brand and see how you like it.. here's a link for some information on Hot Tools blow drier plus attached comb/brushes:
