Stinky hair after straightening it, how can i make it smell better?

Hello everyone. I have really thick, wavy hair and I need to straighten it in order for it to be manageable. The problem is, after I shampoo and condition my hair.. my hair smells great! I am currently using VO5 and the conditioner is this lavendar scent and I love it! My straightener is one that has steam with it and after I straighten my hair, it stinks. I straighten my hair once a week and the smell stays the same all week. Anytime I let my hair down to comb it or to put it back up, I can smell that weird scent coming from my hair. It has to be because of the steam but I can't help that since the steam is what I need to make my hair straight. Does anyone know of some products whose scents can last through a steam session with a hot straightener? Or maybe, does anyone know of some products that I can apply to my hair after I straighten it that won't be greasy and that can be kept in my hair for a week?

Thanks in advance. Please, I will only accept appropriate answers as best answer

Whatever you do, do not spray perfume on your hair. The alcohol in perfume will damage your hair folicles. Try using a straightening cream from herbal essences. It smells good and does not add extra grease.

Change you straightener. I'm sorry, but the smell is probably from your iron either burning the slight remnants of conditioner or your hair slightly. Chi gets way too hot, and Hot Tools are only coated with one layer of ceramic over metal. The FHI Platform is a great iron, with temperature control and solid ceramic/tourmaline plates. It has minerals fused into the plates (Titanium, Titanium Oxide, and Silver) That remove odor and bacteria, and help smooth it out.

Also, try Sabino Moisture block. It's the only product that will TRULY keep your hair from frizzing in humidity or rain, even swimming! And it smells ok. Just don't use too much ( a little goes a looong way ) or your hair will feel greasy.

P.S This iron will not damage your hair! I swear! My hair is bleached to within an inch of it's life, from permanent black dye, and with this iron and that product only, my hair never singes, burns, anything. Trust me.
