If you use it when your hair is wet yes it will. It will end up burning it.

Also try not to straighten your hair everyday as in the long run you'll be doing more harm than good. Instead try using it every other day with a heat protecting hair spray and you're good to go..

uhm, there is different kinds of hair straightners,
the one I have is specially made so you can straighten it while its wet,
or when its not.
you just have to set the right temperature.

oh, and it has to be a ceramic one.

yes, it does damage your hair,
but honestly when you straighten,
you cant tell,
in fact it looks better.

no lie;

yes. it damages it whenever you use it. use a thermal heating protection spray before straightening. it protects against heat damage and gives shine to your hair

it wont damage your hair that much if you use a product on it. I suggest herbal essence or nexxas.

as long as you dont use it tooo much and your hair is completely dry when you straighten it
it should be fine...and if your looking for a straightener that helps with frizz look at a herstyler they sell them at malls and at target
