Wide plates for quicker styling and easier control on medium to very long hair.
If saving time is the first thing on your mind, then wide plates are for you. Wide plates give you more contact surface with hair and hence you can finish your styling in less time. Long, thick and coarse hair needs more grip and control, that’s another area where wide plates step in. Some gals are just not comfortable and do not feel in control with slim plates and this is the third reason why we got the hot wide plates in. In a super-glide easy to style format.
What is it exactly
A straightener with wide argan gold oil infused ceramic plates.
Does it work on all hair types
Yes. It works on all hair types and textures. However, you have to exercise caution and understand what works best for your hair or your clients’ hair. There is no right or wrong answer to temperature and expected results. What works for one hair type on one individual may not work for the other with the same hair type.
Below is a tentative temperature guide. Use sound judgement and see what works best for your hair type and styling expectations.
Remember temperature selection is dependent on several factors:
1. Hair type: Type, texture and length of hair
2. Speed: How soon you need to finish the job
3. Working style and time on hand: Do you like to work with thicker sections or thinner sections
4. Time: How much time do you want to spend on the styling session
5. Treatments: Rebonding, keratin, and other treatments need a specific temperature. You have to work on the prescribed temperatures when doing such treatments.
Recommended temperature settings
1. 210°C - 250°C: For straightening naturally wavy, curly Caucasian/Asian & chemical treatments.
2. 190°C - 210°C: For straightening healthy Asian hair.
3. 170°C - 190°C: For straightening blonde / natural brown Caucasian hair.
4. 150°C - 170°C: For straightening bleached, colored hair straightening.
Disclaimer: Exercise caution and care and always start with lower temperatures and increase and decrease as per your styling requirement and other factors.
Is it a straightener only
Not Really! You can use it as styler to get straight hair, curls, waves and flick. It can be used to get loose bouncy waves and curls using the roll and flip technique.
Do I need to use a heat protect spray along with this tool
A good quality and a very light one. If you use a poor quality and too heavy a serum it will weigh your hair down or not straighten your hair properly because the heat will not affect the texture of the hair as much as it ideally should.
Since the plates are coated with argan gold oil infused ceramic you have sufficient protection with this styler. Use it without a heat serum and check the results and your health for a week. If it is all fine then you really do not need to use a serum at all. You may brush your hair with a few drops of leave-in oil before the styling session.
