Tourmaline Hair Straightener



If what you need is a straightener powerful enough to straighten even the wildest hair but also so gentle that it will protect your hair from damage, then you're looking for a tourmaline hair straightener. Tourmaline is a natural gemstone that used to be seen in jewellery and decorations but was later discovered to be an excellent heat conductor and perfect for straightening hair.
Tourmaline crystals are now pulverized and molded to create extra smooth plates that react negatively when heated. This reaction generates an overwhelming amount of negative ions (more than ceramic and titanium) which penetrate each strand and balance the hair to reveal magnificently smooth and shiny locks. This happens because the negative ions neutralize the positive ions which are caused by pollution, excessive heat and harsh natural effects. Positive ions are what make your hair become frizzy and wild after you towel your hair dry so imagine how your hair would look once all of these messy ions are cancelled out! Ionic technology not only promises perfectly smooth locks, it also seals the hair shafts to protect each strand from heat damage and speeds up the straightening process so less heat will be needed for jaw dropping results.
Tourmaline also emits gentle far-infrared waves which steadily heat the hair from the inside instead of from the outside like conventional heat does. This is much safer since the outside layer is the most delicate and is the easiest to damage with heat. Far-infrared heating is also most beneficial thanks to its ability to lock in the hair's natural moisture to ensure healthy locks that will remain hydrated during and after straightening.
Tourmaline hair straighteners are used by the top celebrities and they're the most recommended by professional stylists due to their powerful properties and gentle heating. Its potent ionic technology is a great advantage for those with frizzy, thick, curly and wavy hair types since these are stubborn and usually don't retain a straightened style for long which calls for further heat application to touch up every now and again. With a tourmaline straightener there'll be no need for touch ups because you'll only need to use it once for a long lasting style.
However, not only will wild hair types benefit from tourmaline, those with thin, fragile, color dyed and chemically damaged hair will also love the gentle heating that these straighteners produce. And since one straighten is enough, these sensitive hair types will be exposed to even less heat for their utmost protection.
You'll receive more advantages from tourmaline hair straighteners if you go for solid tourmaline plates and not coated or nano-tourmaline. And don't forget to look for a variable heat setting and a swivel cord to make using this wonderful straightener all the easier. If you have a higher budget then a tourmaline ceramic straightener will be your ultimate styling tool for superior performance and perfect styles, but as long as you use tourmaline you'll guarantee the smoothest, silkiest, healthiest and most vibrant looking hair that will keep you looking healthy and vibrant too!
