    Get a straightener with Ceramic plates, the metal ones do too much damage!

    Re: Hair straightener..

    dear,At first u may it nice,but the starightner lotion enters to the inner layer of the hair strand & breaks the sulphor bonds of the hair.Only after this process any neutraliser can be used to starighten or perming the hair.Even though u get a good finishing look for a while,being the inner layers broken gradually hair starts splitting up. So bettr not to go for the chemical treatments.

    hair straightners or perming ones actually go straight to the inner layer of the strand & it has to breake it,then only the neutarliser can act on it. the result for the first few days may be good. But gradually the split ends starts comming up whatever smoothener u use.So better not to opt for the chemical treatments.

    Hair straightener recommendations

    Hi friends,
    I am looking to buy a good hair straightener. There are several brands like sedu, kiyoseki,conair, revlon,vidal sasson,etc.available in the market...which one is good and takes less time or few strokes to straighten. I am confused about which one to buy. Has anyone tried any of these..friends plz put down your opinions if have used any of these. Also before gliding our hair into straightener, what pre-conditioning products to use --like straightening balm or thermal protectant serum? I really want to try my hand at straightening.

    re: Hair straightener recommendations

    I have one from remington. I use it once a week only. By the way, did you know that you can use straighteners to make curls? Mine straightener came with an instruction dvd. It is really easy to use.

    Re. serum et cetera. Go to a drugstore. They have lot of products you can use to protect your hair from the heat of the straightener. (It seems like it changes by the day.) Choose the one which matches your hair type.

    re: Hair straightener recommendations

    Its always good idea to use straightners with ceramic plates. Ceramic plates is safe (or does less damage to your hair)
    The cheaper and best option would be revlon. You can get it for 20 dollars from Amazon.
    I recently bought Chi flat iron at discounted price from amazon (for $75) the org price is $120. I must say it is too good. They have like 750 odd reviews for this Chi iron on Amazon itself.
