Ionic Ceramic Hair Straightener

The best hair straighteners on the market use ionic technology. But what does this ever so popular technology do exactly? Well, it generates negative ions which neutralize the positive charges in our hair. These positive ions are present in damaged hair, either from heat or styling, pollution or other natural effects, so they are the cause of dry and frizzy hair. Ionic technology eliminates the static and frizz allowing the hair to lie flatter, smoother, and absorb more moisture for versatile styling and straightening.

For those of you with very fine or lifeless hair, ionic technology is not the best for you as it works to reduce the activity in the hair. If you use a hair iron that features ionic technology be sure to stay clear of your roots, only using your ionic styling tools for the bottom and back sections of your hair.

Now that you’re aware of the benefits that ionic technology provides, the combination of this technology with the benefits of ceramic plated straightening irons give a significant advantage for your hair. Ceramic plates are smoother, heat up quicker and the heat is distributed evenly so your hair will get the same hot temperature all around. These irons let you go from curly to straight and provide silky soft results for any type of hair. Most ceramic hair straighteners are integrated with infrared technology and ionic technology which lock in moisture and eliminate frizz while producing perfectly straightened hair in half the time.

Basically, if a straightener has an ionic component, this means that it contains negative ions to neutralize this electric charge, which can make the hair smoother and prevent further damage when the plates are applied to the hair. So if you’re deciding between a basic hair straightener to save yourself a few bucks then be warned! Your hair will be damaged after repeated use, it’s better to invest a bit more in a trustworthy hair straightener with ionic technology for excellent results and a safer treatment for your hair.
