Hair Straightener - Is The High Temperature Safe For Your Hair?
Hair straighteners are more popular than ever. I use a Sedu hair
straightener, most of my friends do and if you still don't use a
hair straightener I certainly recommend using one. But does this
high temperature straightening technique safe for our hair?
Well, not necessarily. Actually, could be destructive and
totally ruin our hair. Read on to find the best tips for using a
hair straightener and maintaining a healthy hair:
1. Check the heat distribution of the hair straightener - Some
hair straighteners, mostly those with metal plates, have an
uneven temperature among the surface of the plates. You hair
could be severely damaged if one end of the plate will have a
temperature of 180c and the other of 210c. Sedu hair
straightener and other straighteners with ceramic plates usually
have an even distribution of the heat.
2. Check the quality of the temperature control function - Hair
straighteners with ceramic plates usually heat up and cool down
quickly, what gives you a better control. You should also make
sure that you can choose from a wide selection of temperatures.
3. A low temperature is not effective- A hair straightener which
has a max temperature of about 150c will be less effective -
Your hair style may not last through the day.
4. Do not use the hair straightener when you don't need it -
Using the hair straightener on a daily basis may harm your hair.
Try giving your hair a day off at least once a week.
5. Use hair oils to protect your hair - An excessive use of the
hair straightener may dry your hair out. Use oils to protect
your hair.
6. Use Hair straighteners with advanced technologies such as
infra red radiation and ionic technology - These technologies
protect your hair and can even improve the condition of your
hair. Hair straighteners like the Sedu hair straighteners which
have both technologies will keep your hair in the best condition.
Hair straighteners are as safe as any other hair style treatment
- Use them wisely and carefully and enjoy the feeling of a
straight smooth hair.
