Ok so last night, I was blow drying my hair and my mom said it smelled like burned hair.. I didn't know where it came from but I do seem to flag iron my hair multiple times when I'm doing it... Can you guys give me some tips on how I'm exactly suppose to flat iron my hair and not burn it out...-.

You should use a heatprotector and not have your iron to hot. I never have mine over 180 degress (european degress).

Are you cleaning out your flat iron? Sometimes I forget to clean out my flat iron, and the buildup causes it to burn. This article helped me, even though I'm not much pf a natural anymore lol http://www.curlynikki.com/2014/02/the-dos-and-donts-of-flat-ironing.html?m=1.

Use a heat protectant on your hair. Garner fructis is a great brand. It smells really good and protects your hair well.
