What are the best straighteners for shoulder length thick hair?

Answer 1

get one with a very thin iron, long and thin. try ghd, (bit pricey) they have good straightners. for thick hair make sure you straighten very small sections of the hair at a time.

Answer 2

Kodo straighteners are better for thick hair. They have thin plates like the GHD, but the plates are heavier, which makes them work way better on thick hair. Of course what works even better is straightening in sections rather than all at once.

Ive the same hair as you and use the KODO straighteners everyday. My hair looks at lot less thick and is much easier to handle and never frizzes

Answer 3

CHOICE magazine, a magazine that tests products for consumers without advertising or bias, independently rated the ghd original straightener as best overall, for all hair thicknesses and lengths.
In my opinion, the Silver Bullet Manhattan rates a close second, with wider plates (useful for thicker hair) and adjustable temperatures.

Answer 4

I have wavey brown little over the shoulder length hair and when I straighten my hair its promptly yet nonetheless thick i take advantage of a touch olive oil and spread it by my hair to eliminate fly aways and fluffy bits or u can try sturdy hairspray. desire it facilitates

Answer 5

Okay...this is a very simple question, LOL! Well all of my friends have thick hair, while some have really thin hair but we all use the same straightner and trust me this is the Best. Its called the CHI, i know its really expensive but its better than getting a $20 one like every 3 months because the one from Target and other stores like that just burn your hair, trust me i know. I like went to this really good salon and they were like "What straightner do you use?" and i told the Conair, and they like freaked out. So yeah CHI is the best, your hair will look FANTASTIC!!
