Have any of you tried this hair straightener?

I have naturally very thick, long and curly/wavy hair, and it takes a total of two hours to blow dry and straighten my hair, so it's really a pain. I want to try this product but I'm really scared of it frying my hair. Has anyone tried this?

Have any of you tried this hair straightener?

I would SO not do it! Screwing up relaxing the reverse of screwing up a perm, and it happens enough at home. If you want to straighten, do it at a salon. Plus - something you've not thought about - outgrowth. Your hair will grow out curly/wavy and at some point will be two different textures so once you go this direction, you'll have to continue on so that you don't have strange hair. Consolation: if your hair is long, the weight will prevent the outgrowth from being too different by weighing it down.



My suggestion is a heavy duty straightening iron. I swear by it! No, it will not be as easy as relaxing/straightening but you will not be blowing anything dry for 2 hours! I tend to just let my hair air dry and then straigthen it or blow dry it however (without styling, just to dry it) and then run an iron through it. Perfect - and with a smaller barrel (1" or so) you can even do flips and curls once you become proficient.

What's the best hair straightener for a novice in hair care?

I'd like to get a hair straightener. I've relied on my friends to do it in the past, but would like to invest in my own that is quick and easy to use. Suggestions?



What's the best hair straightener for a novice in hair care?

I would say get one from Conair if you dont wanna spend much. Theyre about 40-150 dollars. Pretty cheap! If you actually want a good qulity one, i would say get a proffesional one FROM YOUR STYLIST!! (as long as you dont get your hair cut from supercuts or somewhere gross like that) those stylist ones are about 400+ dollars. Personally, i think of those as a great investment!



Hope that helps!

You need a ceramic flatiron. Metal will heat hair unevenly and lead to damage, also there are tiny burrs in the metal which will catch your strands and shred them. I am very impressed with my Jilbere iron which I purchased at Sally Beauty Supply quite inexpensively. It has an adjustable heat setting, which is important to me because my hair is fine and bleached and needs a lower heat to avoid damage. If you have thicker hair, you need adjustable heat because you will want it to be hotter. Practice sectioning your hair with a clip, starting from the nape of your neck and working up, taking down one row of hair at a time about an inch thick. Also, if you have extremely curly or african american hair you may want to look into getting a relaxer. It will do some of the work for you and make straightening easier. You will want a medium heat for relaxed hair, and a thermal protecting spray is important, too. matrix makes a good one, so does paul mitchell.



Oh and PS, Supercuts does not have to be gross. I happen to work at a very nice one in a classy town. It is all about the location and the staff's talents. It is not nice to make such prejudiced, generalized, and hurtful statements.

I have a Remington hair straightener...?

my Q is the plates look like they are burnt and I cant find anywhere online to see if there is a proper way to clean the plates? the plates are ceramic....my hair just doesn't seem to be straighting the same as when I first got it



I have a Remington hair straightener...?

did u use it in wet hair? that happened to mine. i bought a new hair straightener cuz mine was giving up anyways. i think the thing i might've had was rust. not sure



but it sounds like urs is overheated. if its overheated, then u have to replace the plates. and going throught the hassel of replacing a remmington straghtener plates is just not worth it.

Chloche Flat Iron Hair Straightener?

Hi, I was wondering if this hair straightener is good? Anyone have this?



The website is here: http://chloche.com/C007P_Pink.html



Chloche Flat Iron Hair Straightener?

I have never heard of that brand. I am in beauty school so I have tried all the other girls irons. If you are not looking to invest in a chi or something that expensive check out the babyliss. They have tons of them on ebay for around $30. The thing that you are looking for is how hot does it get. You want it to reach around 400 degrees. I know that sounds really hot but the good irons will get atleast that.



Chloche Flat Iron Hair Straightener?

I can tell you as a hairdresser, the best out there is the CHI flat iron. I have had loads of clients try others and get irritated that they didnt just invest in the CHI.

Does anyone know the best hair straightener for perfectly straight hair?

Well I have wavy, sorta poofy hair and I was wondering if anyone knew the best straightener I can use to get almost perfectly straight hair.



Does anyone know the best hair straightener for perfectly straight hair?

Conair has great straighteners. To test if a straightener is good or not, use a piece of silk to put between the irons. If the silk burns, it's a bad straightener. If the silk doesn't burn, it's a good one. ^^



Does anyone know the best hair straightener for perfectly straight hair?

I have a Chi and its works GREAT



Does anyone know the best hair straightener for perfectly straight hair?

i would also want to know that!



i have really poofy curly hair!



when i straiten it (on high) it doesnt come out perfectly straight.



i think you only get perfectly straight hair if you naturally have perfectly straight hair. what might work though is getting it permanetly straightend? my friend has it and it looks really good.



Does anyone know the best hair straightener for perfectly straight hair?

use a hair dryer or permanently straighten it



Does anyone know the best hair straightener for perfectly straight hair?

Use hair straightners with ceramic plates because I heard that they damage your hair less than the others (ex. Chi). I have out of control, wavy hair and I use a Chi. My hair stays straight unless it gets in rain or something. Hair dryers won't ever straighten my hair either, just makes it less wavy.



Does anyone know the best hair straightener for perfectly straight hair?

Chi, or another ceramic plate flat-iron. Chi irons are pretty expensive, but work extremely well. I have naturally very poofy and curly hair, but my Chi works VERY well. A bit of advice, don't buy anything from Wal-Mart. Or Target. Go to a Sally Beauty Supply store, or talk to your hairdresser. (Regular ceramic irons are about 40 dollars. Go to Sally's for those.)
