A good hair straightener?

Question

I have thick hair that is curly/wavy, and I want a straightener that can straighten it all the way in less than 45 minutes. I also want something that can heat up quickly and has a good heat recovery system, so I don't have to wait forever after straightening a part of my hair. Does anyone have any good suggestions? How much would a straightener like that cost?

Answer 1

GHD's are the only ones worth investing in. take it from someone who knows, no other straighteners have turned my pubic looking hair into smooth,sleek and glossy, of that,let me assure you!! their plates come in three sizes , for you it would be large , they retail from around £100 -£130,worth their weight in gold, and im sure you'll pick them up on e-bay for a hell of a lot cheaper. paid £90 for my medium sized ones. dont be swayed either, all the other ones are mostly designed to look like GHD's but they dont come close. you have my word. good luck and happy hair days!!!

in case you mean the straightening irons, particular, they do harm hair. The enforce itself isn't the project, however the folk that use them. maximum don't be attentive to a thank you to apply them wisely, and overheat their hair, or do it while the hair isn't thoroughly dry. Moisture interior the hair while heated will create steam and "explode" the hair on the interior and then in some months, when you have forgotten what you have carried out, will the hair come aside and you don't be attentive to why. the countless warmth risk-free practices products might artwork somewhat, yet appropriate use of the irons is what you're able to desire to do. bear in mind that as quickly as the wear is complete, you may't restore it. each little thing works. yet you're able to desire to apply the suited gadget interior the suited thank you to get the outcomes you want. utilising the incorrect gadget interior the incorrect way on the incorrect hair will continuously create a large number.

I have tried many different brands and my favorite is the Chi iron by Farouk. It has ceramic plates, heats up quickly and maintains it's heat. It also makes your hair feel really soft and adds some shine. At at salon they usually run 125.00, but you can get them on ebay for half that price. Even so, they are definitely worth the money.

Use an ionic flat iron. It will not curl back easly.
Solia makes a Tourmaline Ceramic Ionic Flat Iron.
According to the Solia flat iron website, "tourmaline,
a precious stone, is used to generate up to 6 times more
negative ions than traditional ceramic irons".
