My hair is really, really curly. It looks good when I use a blow dryer to style it in a more relaxed curl and it also looks good when I flat iron it. I'm just trying to figure out which is less damaging to your hair, the blow dryer or the flat iron? I use a heat protectant when I do either one but is one less damaging than the other?

Flat irons are directly touching your hair so it does more damage. Unless you use heat protection it will give you split ends and such. However, the results are really good. (with flat irons.) :D

a blow dryer if there is a setting to lower the heat because heat damages the hair

well the blow dryer kinda straightens it if you do it throughly with a hair brush. the iron touches it up to make it look less frizzy and more straight. you damage your hair more when you just straighten it by air drying your hair b/c the iron burns your hair more to straighten it.
