I have curly hair and I use the Ultra CHI (Tourmaline ceramic iron). I have no problem straightening my hair, but because it gets so long, I don't always like how flat it is (not straight, but flat...I like the straightness), and I do not want to cut it any because then when I wear it curly it will be too short. Any tips for doing something to add volume and/or flipping it, etc. (especially around my face)? I am set with the products I use, I am just looking for techniques. Thanks for any help!
How do I style my hair with the CHI straightener (so that it is not so flat-I want a little volume)?
This is the way the pros do it:
1) Blow dry your hair lifting from the roots to obtain the volume you want.
2) If you use a silkening product, only put it on the ends. DO NOT start at your scalp when straigtening, start around the ear if you have long hair. The weight of your hair will pull the area near the scalp straight.
3) Use the edge of the striaghtener like a curling iron. Around the face, take hair from behind the ear and pull it in the direction of your nose. Flatten in the direction of the hair and when the hair gets to the end of the iron, turn your wrist in towards your face to "bend" the hair. To flip back, do the opposite and pull the hair from behind your ear to the back of your head and turn the wrist out.
4) Use a rattail comb AFTER straightening to tease the hair in the areas that need volume, and use hairspray in that area only.

It takes a lot longer if you don't blow-dry it first. You can do the same procedure on slightly damp hair, but it tends to go frizzy. Report It

Get thicker hair? I have hair that is naturally straight. I lays close to my head. The only way I can get it to have volume is by fluffing it, which means it's not totally straight. And I like curly hair. I know, we could trade hair.

Another name for straightening iron is indeed flat iron. Generally, you can't get volume with a flattening iron unless you naturally have thick hair that has volume. Try lifting at the roots. Place a can of hairspray or just something round under a section of hair up at your roots and spritz with hairspray. Hold it for a moment. It'll create a lifting illusion and make your hair appear to be fuller. Also try flipping your head upside down and spraying with a bit of hairspray underneath. Let it dry, then flip your head back up and style.

start at the root of your hair and when you start to go down, at the roof just give it a tiny lift and then slowly bring it down. for bangs do the same but give it a tiny more lift. also, before you straighten VO5 has some great stuff to put on your hair before you straighten and they have a product that gives volume.

my hairdresser uses this same straightner on my hair, (which is also naturally curly) before she uses that she sprays my hair with this volumizer by matrix, amplifier root lifter 3...it has a long tip to get near the root of your hair and gives it lots of volume, she sells it at the salon shes at, JC PENNEYs or any other salon would sell this stuff

never heard of a chi?!?! what?!?! u must not be a girl!! lol
but, knowing your hair type would help... but i would suggest using a light setting lotion (it's like water, either purple or blue). the bottle'll probably say dillute w/water, but i dont and wouldnt advise you to. anyway, when you're at your roots, put the chi right at your head and pull your hair up towards the sky. only straighten about 2-3 inches- it's going to look funny at first, but once u've gotten your whole crown done, use a big toothed comb to comb your hair out and you'll have instant volume
