OneIs it harmful to use hair straighteners regularly? Four Hazards Exposed!
Is it harmful to use hair straighteners regularly? In fact, the harm of hair straightener does exist, but there is a prerequisite for the existence of this harm, that is, everyone uses an unprofessional hair straightener, this kind of product is generally poor workmanship, inferior materials, and does not take into account the core technology such as heat compensation speed and temperature control accuracy, so it is easy to bring the following four hazards when used.
Hazards1. Hidden dangers caused by inferior materials
There is a potential fire risk associated with the use of cheap wire and low-quality hair clip board products, which is very dangerous.
Hazards2. It is very harmful to the hair
Frequent use of hot tools can cause quite serious damage to the hair. This damage is especially noticeable when the heating temperature is too high or the temperature control is unstable, so we need to be extra careful.
Hazards3. Cause odor to stain hair
Using low-quality products may emit a pungent odor, which not only affects the way you feel about it, but can also cause potential long-term damage to your hair.
Hazards4. Unreasonable design may cause burns
In order to achieve a long-lasting hairstyling effect, it is often necessary to use a high-temperature ironing tool. However, many poorly designed products may increase the risk of burns.
IIIn-depth reveal:Inferior qualityThe four big insiders why hair straighteners hurt your hair
Is it harmful to use hair straighteners regularly? Inferior hair straighteners do harm the hair scalp, so why do inferior hair straighteners bring these harms? Regarding this issue, please take a look at the following chart of the negative evaluation statistics of hair straighteners released by the authority**, because most of the negative evaluations of hair straighteners are due to the phenomenon of hair damage in people's use, so the figure also truly shows the specific distribution of the causes of hair damage of inferior hair straighteners, after analysis and summary, I found that the main reasons for inferior hair straighteners to hurt hair are the following four points.
1. Lack of professionalism in technical tuning
Many brands of hair straightener products have deficiencies in core performance, such as lack of technical adjustment in terms of heat compensation speed, negative ion penetration and adsorption effect, temperature control accuracy, hair protection film, etc. As a result, the straightener may experience a temperature increase that is too high or fluctuates during use. In addition, these products also lack professional hair care technologies such as negative ions or biofilms. Long-term use of such products can cause damage to our hair health.
2. The temperature is too high when using
Although high temperatures can effectively soften and style hair, most brands at present simply imitate the designs of overseas brands, and even continuously increase the temperature to achieve the styling effect. But in fact, the high temperature of more than 200 degrees is far beyond the range that Chinese hair can bear! Such high temperatures can cause irreversible damage to the hair. Long-term use of excessively high temperatures can lead to the loss of protein and moisture in the hair, causing the hair to lose its elasticity and shine. Hair can become brittle, dry, yellow, and may even cause hair loss.
Lack of anti-attenuation design
In the long-term high temperature state, the internal components of the electric splint will accelerate the aging, resulting in the gradual attenuation of the thermal performance, temperature control accuracy and negative ion permeation adsorption effect of the electric splint, resulting in excessive thermal damage to the hair, and the negative ion permeation and adsorption effect released at the same time will deteriorate, and the hair texture will deteriorate after long-term use.
Low gear compatibility
The hair situation of Chinese people is very complex and changeable, and the tolerance of each hair subdivision to high temperature is different, and some brands will only blindly copy the design of overseas brands, and set a span of 20-30 degrees, resulting in Chinese people unable to choose the appropriate temperature tolerance, either the setting effect is poor and the hair is repeatedly pulled to cause hair damage, or the temperature is too high to damage the hair.
ThreeHow to stay away from harm? Master the eight hair straightener selection skills!
Is it harmful to use hair straighteners regularly? This question has been explained to you thoroughly, now let's take a look at the most concerned and most important question, that is, how to buy a hair straightener! The purchase of hair straighteners is very important, it will directly determine whether everyone will get benefits or harm from using hair straighteners! But it's not always easy to make the right purchase. So how should you choose? The following eight ** buying skills, you can learn!
1. SelectHigh degree of professionalismof the brand
Professional brands fine-tune the core performance of the curling iron to ensure the speed of heat compensation and the accuracy of temperature control. This ensures that the temperature of the curling iron is controlled stably within the set range, avoiding damage to the hair caused by overheating or overcooling. In addition, professional brand curling irons may also be equipped with negative ion penetration technology and biofilm technology. Negative ion penetration technology can help the hair better adsorb styling products and increase the durability of the hairstyle. Biofilm technology can form a protective film on the surface of the hair, reducing the damage caused by high temperatures, and also nourishing the hair for a healthier appearance.
2. Choose a good heating element material
A curling iron with an MCH cermet heating element is preferred. MCH heating elements offer a number of advantages. First of all, the MCH heating element has the characteristics of rapid heating and can quickly reach the required temperature. Secondly, the heat compensation speed of the MCH heating element is also faster, and the temperature can be adjusted in time to maintain a stable heating state.
It is more recommended to roll the product in one piece
There are usually three types of straight curling irons: curling irons, straightening combs, and straight curling irons. Each type has its own characteristics and applicable scenarios. Among them, the product that integrates straight roll is the most recommended choice. Curling irons are mainly used for curling hair and are relatively simple to operate. However, the downside of the curling iron is that the curling iron angle is fixed, it does not provide a variety of hairstyle effects, and it is easy to burn during use**. The styling effect of the straightening comb is relatively simple, and it is mainly suitable for creating a straight hair style. However, the styling effect of the straightening comb is not as good as that of other types of straightening curling irons.
4. Choose performance anti-attenuation technology
Curling irons with performance anti-decay technology are generally more robust and durable, providing a stable heating performance and negative ion effect over time. It can improve better hair retention and reduce damage to hair texture. Therefore, when choosing a curling iron, it is wise to pay attention to choosing a product with performance anti-decay technology.
5. Ensure the permeation effect of negative ions
When choosing a curling iron, it is advisable to choose a professional brand that pays attention to the permeation and adsorption effect of negative ions and the attenuation of the output, and adjusts the technology accordingly. This ensures that the negative ions can fully penetrate the hair core, providing a better nourishing effect, and maintaining the effect of the negative ions for a long time, achieving long-lasting hair care results.
6. Ensure the accuracy of temperature control
It is crucial to choose a curling iron with high temperature control precision. These curling irons are usually made of high-quality heating elements, advanced temperature control chips and sensitive sensors for precise temperature control. This means that the curling iron provides a stable temperature output, so that the hair is warmed up just right, creating a better hold and reducing damage to the hair.
7. Optimize biofilm technology
Choosing a curling iron with biofilm technology can provide better protection during the perm process. They release active ingredients to help nourish and reduce damage, and they also form a protective film on the hair to care for healthy hair. This allows for greater peace of mind when using the curling iron, while achieving the desired hold.
8. Ensure appropriate power
Choosing the right amount of power is important for curling irons. The right amount of power provides a stable heating effect while avoiding excessive energy consumption and safety risks. A power of around 35 watts is usually enough for most people, providing a fast and steady ramp to help achieve the desired hairstyle.
