The straightening serum should go in while your hair is still dampRub it in between your palms until it emulsifies then work it into your hair from about 6 inches away from the scalp thru the endsHeat protectors have different instructions.some you spray on then iron while wet-others you blowdry before starting to ironThis should be the second step after the serumHave a look at your thermal protectorA lot of straightening serums have thermal protector in them, making the spray stuff unnecessaryI find when I use both it feels like there is too much product in my hairThe key to sleek hair is this: 1Your hair needs to be 100% DRY when you start to iron itThe iron is going to seal down the outer layer of the hair in one direction temporarily, this is what generates that shine and keeps humidity out2Take as small of sections as you can when stylingPin it up, and gradually take down 1/2 sections, working from the base/root slowly thru the endsBasically, the more time you take as far as working thru each piece the smoother it will beYou might want to find a good shine spray, at the end of your styling if you use one it will help lock in your style and keep humidity at bay3.Additionally, a good iron helpsIf you're usuing a super cheapy drugstore iron and you have a whole mess of thick hair, you need one that offers you higher performanceYou want an iron that has ceramic plates, and gets hot evenlyExpect a good flat iron to cost you somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 dollarsIt's worth it-the cheapy ones don't heat evenly and can burn/damage your hair.
