Hot Tools
All of the choices in hair tools can make your head burst into flames, let me make it a little
easier for you by giving you the 911 on hot tools.
Flat Iron and Curling Iron
Ionic
Creates greater shine, smoothness and silkiness, seals in moisture, protecting the hair
cuticle, ionic heat sleeks down cuticle
Ceramic
There are two types of ceramic irons, plates or rods that are made of 100% ceramic or metal
plates that are coated with ceramic.
Irons coated with ceramic are harder on hair than ones that are made of ceramic. Safer on
hair than traditional metal. The ceramic coating can flake of the metal rods leaving area's that
will produce more heat on the hair strands, thus damaging the hair.
Ceramic irons or rods the heat is distributed more evenly and multiple layers of protective
ceramic between hair and heat. They also distribute the heat evenly and keep a constant
temperature, because of all this, even the highest settings, the heat is safer.
Traditional Thermal Steel/Metal
Steel can rust and develop carbon build up. Metal is prone to hot spots.
Blow Dryer
Tired of your hair feeling like dry summer grass. Is the heat from your blow dryer to hot to
handle. Do you feel that your scalp has gone up in smoke. No need to be blown away these
little tips will keep your scalp cool and your hair dry any time of year.
Traditional
Cheap or old dryers with fewer than 1,800 watts, also, most travel sizes are hard on hair. Pro
models with high airflow and a nozzle attachment. More power (look for words like high
output) speeds dry time so hair has less chance to frizz or flatten. You will pay more, but the
motor will last.
Ionic
Ionic blow dryer has a 60% faster drying rate due to negative ions. Reduces damage to hair,
eliminates the frizzy, "blow dried" look. Negative ions add moisture and sheen. Closes the
cuticle layer to protect the hair. Hair that is "fried" or very damaged should use an ionic dryer
carefully. Some Ionic dryers can get very hot and should be held at least 3 inches away from
hair and brush.
Dry hair most of way with towel before you start blow drying it will save your hair from excess heat little on your electric bill.
