Sounds like you need some smoothing product on it afterwards, or serum on it before you dry it

blow dry your hair in the direction you want it to go, if you want root lift, aim the nossle there.. when you want the ends smooth hold the nossle down the hair shaft for a smoother look....

sorry... the spelling for nossle escapes me at the moment... lol....

MM..should i do roots first then ends,vice versa or does it not really matter?

I use a hot air brush, which I find really good as I struggle to hold a hairbrush and hairdryer at the same time for my own head.
