Hiya a_o,
I have experienced this same problem. Here is my advice: First, pay attention to which hand that you use to hold the brush and the dryer with when you sucessfully get your hair straight on whichever side it is. Then, make sure that you switch the dryer and brush to the "other" hand when you dry the side that you are having trouble with.
That "sort of" worked for me. If you continue to have trouble, try brushing all of your hair forward, over your face, and drying it in front of you. I did that for a few weeks and my hair seemed to "learn" to stop curling.
One additional comment... if you are drying your hair in a humid bathroom, you might want to try drying it in another room... the humidity might be encouraging the curl.
Good Luck!
