Newbie mohair question

I bought adult mohair from macphersons because I thought its had a slight wave in it. But, apparently, the picture (1) is super zoomed in because what I got (2) was very curly. The customer wanted a look like this (3). But he looks like this. (4). My question is, is there any way to get the curls/frizziness out? Or is it always going to go back to original when it’s wet?

If you brush/comb it straight while it’s wet, and put a cap over it until it’s dry. it should stay straight until it’s wet again.

I took my flat iron to it and I like it a lot better.

Thanks, Sony! I might have some actually.

That mohair won’t ever be straighter and will always go back kinky when wet. I also think straightening kinky mohair just makes it look dry and frizzy. It is best to condition it, style it and let it dry naturally to the curl it was meant to be. Then it will look healthy. It might not be the look the customer wanted unfortunately.
