How to get straight hair without heat?? (naturally curly)?

I used to straighten my hair everyday without heat protectant. (don't yell at me and tell me how stupid i am because I know, I'm paying for it now.) my hair is damaged so i can't straighten it until it's better, which could take up to 6 months. it's already been a month and I can't take it anymore.

my natural hair is really curly, but it's not like a cute curly. it's really bad. and it's frizzy. is there any way at all that I can straighten my hair without using heat? I'm tired of wearing my hair curly!

    Wash and condition your hair. Getting your hair wet is the first step to straightening it, so start by washing and conditioning your hair. Use a deep conditioner, or leave your regular conditioner in for longer (2-3 minutes) to improve hair moisture and prevent frizzing.

    Gently towel it dry just until it is no longer dripping. Don't dry your hair completely using the towel. Apply an anti-frizz serum to your hair. This will help your hair stay straight while it dries, especially if it's naturally prone to curling up under cool air. Apply a dime-sized amount from roots to the ends, or more if you have thick, long hair.

    If you don't have a frizz serum, use leave-in conditioner or another leave-in hair balm in its place. You can make your own frizz serum by mixing the following ingredients in a bottle, then smoothing some into your hair: 4 ounces camilla oil, 1 ounce avocado oil, a few drops of your favorite essential oil, like rose or peppermint.

    Using your hair dryer's coldest setting, start blow drying your hair a section at a time. Use a flat paddle brush to brush it out in long, straight strokes as you hold the hair dryer up to the section. Continue drying your hair in this fashion until it is completely dry and straight. Since you aren't using heat, the blow-drying process will take longer than usual. Be patient and plan to spend up to an hour blow-drying your hair.

    You can also blow dry your hair in front of a fan, rather than tiring out your arm with a blow dryer. Sit in front of the fan and use the flat paddle brush to brush out your hair until it is straight and dry. Smooth more anti-frizz serum into your dry hair to keep it smooth, straight and glossy. Keep your hair in a low, loose ponytail if you want to put it up. Putting it in a bun or braid will leave creases in your hair, making it appear wavy.
