Download Article Show Download Article Air-drying your hair is a great way to take a break from damaging hot tools, but it can sometimes be hard to get it sleek and straight. Luckily, there are a few tricks you can use to air-dry your hair straight. If your hair is straight or slightly wavy, try brushing it every 5 minutes while it dries. If your hair is curlier, wrap it tightly around jumbo-sized rollers to smooth it out, or pin it around your head for straight hair with plenty of volume.

ReferencesAbout This ArticleArticle SummaryX Air drying your hair may sound complicated, but there are several simple tricks you can use to make sure it dries straight. If your hair is naturally straight or wavy, pat it with a dry towel when you come out of the shower to remove excess moisture. Then, apply a straightening cream or balm, and comb it into the shape you want. As your hair dries, gently run a comb or wet brush through it every 5 minutes to keep it straight. If your hair is curly, add a mousse or gel while it's wet to help straighten it. You should then divide it into sections and wrap each section around your head. When you get to the end of each section, fix it in place with a pin. Leave your hair to dry for several hours, then remove the pins and straighten out your hair.
