Ceramic Flat Irons are More Popular

Why Ceramic?

Ceramic generates negative ions when heated. These negative ions help to smooth hair cuticles by breaking water molecules into small particles. These smaller particles are able to penetrate the hair shaft better. Combined with heat, the negative ions seal the moisture into your hair. Thus, your hair stays conditioned and retains more moisture when using the ceramic flat iron.

Ceramic also maintains the temperature at a constant rate during the styling process. Heated metal damages cuticles and tends to lose heat while styling. This causes you to go over the hair more often with the flat iron and expose it to more heat, more loss of moisture and more potential damage.

Because ceramic is easily broken, most ceramic flat irons are actually aluminum that is coated with ceramic. However there are other metals used as the base for these flat irons. Tourmaline, Titanium and Silver are popular choices. Titanium has high heat conduction, so it tends to work better for hard to straighten hair.

Silver fights bacterial, but it does not do anything to improve heat conduction. Tourmaline is a natural source of negative ions, so it is a popular choice for flat irons.

Types of Hair that Can Use a Ceramic Flat Iron

A ceramic flat iron is suitable for all types of hair. A professional model with have adjustable heat settings. Flat irons come in several sizes. Long thick hair needs an iron of at least 1 1/2 to 2 inches. Short, medium or fine hair needs a 3/4 to 1 1/4 inch flat iron. Coarse, very curly or ethnic hair should use high heat at approximately 350 to 400 degrees. Damaged, chemically treated or fine hair should use low heat that is less than 300 degrees. Normal hair usually does well with temperatures set between 300 and 380 degrees.

Using the tips above, you should be able to select a quality professional ceramic flat iron. Improve the health of your hair by locking in the moisture while you stay stylish. Quickly style your hair and easily change your style from curly to straight using a ceramic flat iron.
