Which Hair Styling Tool is Best for Your Hair?

With all the technologies on the market, choosing a hairstyling tool is almost as hard as choosing a car. Ceramic, tourmaline, titanium coating? It can be bewildering! But there’s no need to panic. We explain to you below the different types of plates and their benefits.

CERAMIC PLATES

Ceramic heats up very quickly and optimizes uniform heat distribution over the plates, making the process less damaging for the hair. When heated, ceramic has the benefit of emitting negative ions, which control static electricity and give the hair a shiny finish.

TOURMALINE PLATES

Tourmaline, a semi-precious stone, offers features similar to ceramic, but with a little plus! This material lets strands glide more easily on the plates, in addition to reducing frizz. Often associated with ionic or infrared technology, this type of tool is suitable for sensitized hair.

NANO TITANIUM PLATES

Titanium or nano titanium plates are highly resistant, heat up in seconds and offer faster heat transfer. Titanium is ideal for professional use and for thick hair. However, if your hair is fine, we suggest you use this type of iron cautiously because it can more easily damage the hair fibre.

The secret is to know your type of hair, identify its needs and limitations, and then choose the tool best suited to how you want to use it!
