Getting the right Hair Straightener

By Mark Tanner Mike Smithers Mel Carmine Cindy Peete Tom Sellstry

Choosing the perfect hair straightener is not the same process for everyone. It all depends on you. What type of hair do you have? Are you looking for a great deal, or just the absolute best, pricing aside? A general rule is that the lower the price, the lower the performance.

The temperature control on the product is necessary to regulate the temperature so that one can select the best heat setting for his/her hair type. This is required so you dont actually waste too much of time and heat while straightening your hair. A hair straightener will not only straighten the hair but also curl, flick and treat frizzy hair which leads to better results.

A Hair straightener should have a ceramic element and can heat up to 210 degrees C giving a better straightening result. In addition, it must have a detachable comb that guides the hair across the plates. The design should have a better grip or non-slip handle. Thus, before buying a hair straightener, you need to know what kind of hair you have. Longer hair needs bigger blades to manage properly. Straightening usually takes around 30 to 40 minutes, but if the hair straightener is heavy it, then it may lead to wrist pain.

It is important to set a budget for yourself for how much you want to spend on a straightener. Their are good straighteners out there for $30, and their are great straighteners out there for $200. It is all up to you in how much you want to spend. Once you decide on that, you should read as many unbiased reviews of the straighteners. A great place for this is Amazon, where the reviewers have no incentive to lie to you.

Its important to carefully review what the straighteners are made of. You don't want cheap stuff. Keywords to look for are ceramic plans and tourmaline because those are considered absolutely top of the line for hair straighteners. Don't settle for less if you can help it. They are costly, but leave your hair nice and healthy shiny when their work is done. Cheaper materials can break or damage your hair, leaving it without shine.

Lastly, consider all of the bells and whistles that are added onto your straightener. Do you need something that is great at curling? Do you need it to be able to create ringlets and locks in your hair? Do you need instant heat up? I recommend that you pick one that has an automatic shutoff feature - this will save you from many return trips home because you think you "might have left it on".
