Continue blowing out the hair using 1- to 2-inch partings and the Olivia Garden HeatPro™ Ceramic+ion Thermal Round Brush until the roots are dry. Once finished, apply a heat protectant to the hair.
Use the Olivia Garden Titanium+ion™ Flatiron to straighten the hair in 1- to 2-inch sections. Once finished, trim the ends starting at the nape using the Olivia Garden PowerCut™ Shears and Olivia Garden Carbosilk® CS-C3 Comb.
