Keeping straightened hair straight?

Hi Would love some advice on what hair products work for keeping hair straightened once I have used my hair straighteners. Have tried a few products but none that really work and I struggle with this in the UK so not sure how to do battle with the humidity in Orlando! Am wondering about a pixie cut, but it seems pretty drastic solution (and I don't really suit short hair!), or a hat... but presume there must be a good product out there I just haven't found it yet...

The reviews look good for this - I’ve just ordered it for myself and eldest DD (think Crystaltips &#128514. Even got 20% off at LookFantastic - hope it works 🤞🏻

The Wow dreamcoat I was really disappointed with, expensive mistake!

The only thing that has ever worked re keeping my hair nice despite humidity is having it Keratin treated. Takes about 2.5 hours and costs me £90 incl cut and blow dry. Although it was so hot and humid in florida I tended to wear it in a ponytail a lot of the time anyway.

It does Amanda! I’ve tried few of their products and they are all good. Wow cover up powder is good too, not that I’d know of course , my “friend” uses it when bits of grey start to show

I think a lot of these things, it also depends on your hair. Unfortunately, its not a one size fits all. I think they do the dreamcoat in a smaller size too, i've seen it in M&S for about £12. At least I think it was that product...

What hair straighteners do you have? I do think having the right tools can help so much! I have Cloud 9s now which are so much better than my GHD’s and I get a good 3 days out of my straight hair.

Yes they do, in the minis section. Think you can also get the mini ones on feel unique too

Thanks for suggestions will give Wow a go, though I normally let my hair dry naturally rather than blow drying so not sure if it will work for me... Will see how I get on! 🙂

Have you tried John Frieda 3 day straight? That and a keresstese (can’t spell) blow dry cream has kept my hair straight for 2 days so far! (Usually goes frizzy and wavy after the first)
I also watched a brad mundo ‘flat iron’ tips and tricks video which has help with my technique too!
