The all-important flatiron: We know how to curl our hair with it and even press our shirts
with the thing. At this point, you’d think we’d be hair-straightening
pros. The truth? We still get those awful creases near our roots every
time we aim for super-sleek locks. Here’s an easy way to avoid them.
What you do: Take the top layers of your hair and
hold them up vertically away from your scalp. Move the straightener from
the root out toward the tip, then let the hair fall naturally as it
cools.
So what if your 14-year-old niece has been doing this for years? You’re still a hair goddess in our book.

Why it works: Instead of clamping your flatiron down
on a section of hair that’s sitting against your head (which causes the
dreaded crinkle), using this method allows you to straighten hair
closer to the root, which then cools at a vertical angle and falls
naturally into place, no dents or creases in sight.So what if your 14-year-old niece has been doing this for years? You’re still a hair goddess in our book.
