Hair Straightener?

Question

I'm going to get a new hair straightener. Any brand name suggestions??

Answer 1

It all depends on the amount of money you are willing to spend. Of the top ten best-selling hair straighteners, there are products by Solia, Sedu, HAI, Bion, Chi, and Hot Tools. But there are also straighteners by many other makers that may work just as well for you, and be less costly. Again, referring to the top ten best-selling straighteners, the prices range from around US $25.00 to over US $200.00, so price may certainly be a factor in what an individual would consider the best.

There are other factors that you have to consider in choosing a hair straightener. One of the first is the length of your hair. The longer your hair is, the larger the plates of your straightener need to be. Your straightener should be just wide enough to allow you to quickly heat the length of hair you have. For shorter lengths of hair, you want a narrower straightener. This allows you to have more control over the hair as you straighten it. (The size of your straightener will effect the cost.)

Another factor is the condition of your hair. Because these appliances use high heat, they can damage the hair, especially if the hair is already damaged or in poor condition. In this situation, you may want to select one of the straighteners designed to help smooth the cuticle layer. These models do tend to be more expensive, but many people really rave over the results they give.

The bottom line isn’t so much what is the best straightener, but what is the best straightener for you. You’re going to need to make that determination for yourself based on your hair’s length and condition, and your budget.

The Chi is the best if you are willing to pay $100 for it. but if you want the same quality, go to a beauty supply store and i bought the Generic Chi. It works GREAT i love it and it was only like $65. I have bought 3 in the past month from walmart and other stores... and they broke on me within 2 uses. So i would say go ahead and spend the money because in the long run it will be worth it. hope this helps a lil bit

Answer 3

I use Corioliss straightening iron, and would definetly recomend it.
Don`t know where you can buy it or how much it costs, but it`s worth it.
It has a digital controll so you can change the temperature. It gets warm and ready to use in a few seconds, and it gets cold fast when you are done. It`s easy to use, and my hair has never been straighter.
But as always, remember that it`s also important to use good products for your hair. You need straightening products that are good for your hair and that it`s okay to use with straightening irons.

Good Luck in finding something that works for you. :-)

in case you mean the straightening irons, particular, they do injury hair. The enforce itself isn't the subject, however the those that use them. maximum do no longer understand the thank you to apply them properly, and overheat their hair, or do it whilst the hair isn't thoroughly dry. Moisture interior the hair whilst heated will create steam and "explode" the hair on the interior and then in some months, once you have forgotten what you have completed, will the hair come aside and you do no longer understand why. the somewhat some warmth protection products could artwork somewhat, yet acceptable use of the irons is what you're able to desire to do. bear in mind that once the wear and tear is finished, you won't be able to restore it. each and everything works. yet you ought to use the splendid gadget interior the splendid thank you to get the outcomes you like. utilising the incorrect gadget interior the incorrect way on the incorrect hair will consistently create a large number.

Answer 5

I bought one at Wal-Mart for like $15. I think the brand name was Alpha or something. It's black, and it's light and slim, really easy to hold onto and not drop. It's got a lower-case "a" on it for the brand monogram.

It's the best one I've ever had. It does a great job.

Answer 6

I'm not sure of any brand names but I like high heat porcelain straighteners that turn off by themselves.

I have a infiniti by conair it was like 40 dollars

Answer 7

Sally's Beauty Supply has a generic Chi for about 60 bucks. It works just as good as the original. I have one!

Answer 8

I think just about any "wet to dry" hair straightener is good... I have one from Revlon and it works sooooooo well...... (and it only costs $30)

Answer 9

Chi, it works the best (I own one), it's a bit pricey though. Also Revlon (my friend owns one). I wouldn't recommend Conair unless you're on a budget. Avoid plastic ones, they're really cheap.
