Ceramic Flat Hair Iron

Going from curly to straight has never been easier with a ceramic flat hair iron! This versatile styling tool will have your curls and waves smoothed out within minutes thanks to its ultra-smooth plates, consistent heating and frizz defying technologies.

Ceramic has always been the top choice for professional hair stylists and due to their success in salons all over the world, soon enough everyone had their very own ceramic flat iron to achieve salon quality results from the comfort of their own homes. But what makes ceramic so popular?

Smooth plates and equal heating isn’t exactly hard to find in a flat iron, even the basic models that use metal plates have them. However, these metal plates are only smooth on the surface and once they’re put under a microscope they’re actually as rough as sandpaper! Furthermore, the equal heat distribution around metal plates is short lived as these aren’t known for having a long life span and will probably start damaging your hair with bad heating before ceasing to function completely. Ceramic, on the other hand, is smooth even under a microscope and its equal heating will last as long as the whole iron does which always comes with a hefty warranty protection to prove its long life span.

Ceramic is also much safer than the basic plates as it uses the latest technologies in the beauty industry for superior results with minimum heat damage. Far infrared heating is one of these improvements and it works by releasing gentle waves to heat the hair while locking in moisture for supple and healthy looking locks that won’t become dry or brittle with regular straightening. Another technology is an ionic component which smooths and protects the hair by generating negative ions that not only eliminate static and frizz, but also cuts down on straightening time which shields your hair from further heat exposure. Both of these technologies are present in ceramic and can be enhanced in hybrid plates that use ceramic with tourmaline (extra ionic) or ceramic with titanium (faster).

This is certainly a high quality material, but its true value can only be appreciated in pure ceramic plates and not ceramic coated or plates that only use nano- ceramic technology. Although if you only want a taste of ceramic every now and again then thickly ceramic coated plates will give you those temporary results.

All ceramic hair irons that are worth spending time and money on come with adjustable heat settings, a swivel cord, a thermal bag and a good warranty protection, so if you plan on setting out to purchase your very own ceramic iron then make sure it includes these features. The biggest advantage of ceramic flat irons is that as they’re so popular the market has an overwhelming variety of models at different prices, making it extremely easy to choose the most convenient ceramic flat hair iron for you.
