Take one thin lock of hair, slightly narrower than your brush. Blow dry this with the nozzle pointed downward. Brush slowly in long, straight strokes as you dry that section. Keep the brush under the hair and the dryer nozzle hovering over the hair. Move the brush and dryer at almost the same speed, with the dryer trailing behind just a short distance. Repeat if necessary until the hair is completely dry and straight, then move on to the next lock of hair.
4. Section your hair
If using hot air, apply heat protectant to your hair first. If possible, choose one based on natural oils, not silicone.

3. Comb your hair.
Start with the lower layers of hair, around the nape of your neck and your ears.

This method is best used to turn moderately curly hair into gentle waves. The result won't be as straight as a flat iron could make, but your hair will be healthier and more resistant to humidity. This process is also very easy, and it requires no special hair products.

1. Try this easy, gentle method.
Tie your hair into a loose ponytail using a fabric hair tie, not an elastic hairband. Add a second hair tie about 2 inches (5 cm) below the first, and repeat at regular intervals.
You can also blow-dry your hair in front of a fan, rather than tiring out your arm with a blow-dryer. Keep in mind that it may be more difficult to control a fan than a blow-dryer.
