the best time you use your hair straightener is when your hair is completely dry. make sure you use a thermal protect ant spray on your hair before you apply any kind of heat on your hair ex: hair dryer, curling iron, flat Iron..ETC. that will help protect your hair from the heat and it wont damage it anymore than it already is. other wise you can use your hair straightener whenever but i wouldn't straighten your hair everyday. use a smoothing get or straightening cream in your hair when its wet then blow dry it...this well help keep your hair straighter and help with the frizz and keep it nice for a longer period of time..when your all done a shine serum works great to keep it smooth straight and adds a little bit of shine....hope this answers your question.When is the best time to use a hair straightener?
after your hair is dry
your hair should be completely dry. if it's still wet, the point of the straightener is completely moot.


also, make sure to use a heat protector - Redken Smooth Down Heat Glide is fantastic :-)





make sure you take good care of your hair too - since you use a straightener it's a tad more damaging, so be nice to it.
you can use it when your hair is still damp, or when it is completely dry.
