   It’s pretty hard to get the back of your hair really straight. I also have really wavy/poofy hair. Sometimes I use a flat iron. You need to just kind of get used to moving the flat iron when not seeing it, without burning yourself. Make sure you’re straightening your hair in layers (pinning up the top and middle layers when you’re working on the bottom layer) and feel your way around. Use your dominant hand to hold the iron and your other hand to hold your hair. Hold your arms behind your head as if you’re going to lean back and relax, kind of like this (imagine the O is your head, and the <> as the angle of your arms) . Pull out a small bit of hair with one hand, and gently bump your head with the iron (not with the heated part) so you know where it is. Take the iron and clamp it on the hair, and pull it over. Do that for the rest of your hair and the other layers.
   Hope this helps!

   put a mirror on two facing walls, so when you look into one, you can see the back in the other

   That is my problem too. I have really long hair, and its really hard for me to get the back. I always try, end up missing the back part. My hair always looks so much better when other people do it for me lol.
