Hey my hair lovers, I know how intrigued you are by this topic because each of us has different variations of hair types this includes length, density, thickness, and texture. They can be decisive variables to help you choose the correct flatiron arsenal to add to your beauty routine.
The benefits of knowing your hair type are super important so let’s start from there, what is your hair type?
To give you an example, I would say my hair info is:
Length: Long hair
Density: Medium-heavy (Number of strands on your head)
Texture: Wavy
Thickness: Coarse (width of a single strand of hair)
So picking the right flatiron made of the right materials for your hair type is everything
2. You will cut in half the amount of time you spend styling your hair.
3. You will get silky smooth hair results that will last longer.
They are styling tools that have two plates designed to straighten the hair distributing heat through the plates forcing your follicles into smooth and silky submission.
You’ll read a lot of claims about material on flat irons ads I know how confused that can be but I’m here to help you and show you what I learned about such an important topic ☺️
So here we go, there are four main materials each of them has a different use that suits different needs and hair types.
Let’s start with…
-$
( Cheap and low quality )
Believe it or not a lot of you have or had an aluminum flat iron and don’t know, even I think I had one in the past.
These flatirons are commonly aluminum plates coated with ceramic, they are incredibly cheap and disposable. They look nice when they are new but after owning them for a while you will notice the coating doesn’t last and starts to chip off.
When they chip off you have to stop using them or they will start harming your hair,
and when is new they will work on a hair type that is thin and short length that requires minimum use.
WHEN CHOOSING A CHEAP FLATIRON: Make sure it has temperature control.✔️
Applying a heat protectant, and give it a minimum use so you avoid hair damage.

Solid ceramic plates provide the most value for the money, they can last for a long time and are perfect for thin wavy medium/long hair.
They distribute heat evenly and are perfect for moderate use and it is even budget-friendly.
If you’re looking for one be sure to read carefully and look for words such as PURE OR SOLID CERAMIC.
So you get 100% of the right material pay attention to this because it is super important when buying.

So they are best suited for curly, thick, frizzy and long hair they will be your time savers. Especially if you live in a humid environment titanium straightener🌞 are great to keep your style going for longer.
They are scratch resistant and durable (but keep reading because not everything that shines is gold)
-I won’t recommend it for thin or dye hair, the high temperatures that titanium can reach can be damaging if used improperly can scorch your hair (be very careful)
Great results sometimes mean more damage.
and after knowing this might not be the hair straightener for your hair type but you still want a titanium flat iron because of the amazing results.
✔️Make sure to use a heat protectant
✔️ Get one that has a temperature control setting
✔️ So you use it under 350 degrees and please don’t use it very often.
Titanium flatiron

Which to choose?
Ceramic flatiron?
- If you have straight hair but just wake up some morning frizzier than normal then you should be fine with a ceramic flatiron.
- If you don’t use a flatiron very often or your hair does not demand a lot of heat.
Titanium?
1. Definitely best for thick coarse frizzy hair
2. If you’re a professional, or an experienced use
3. If you want fast results
Tourmaline?
1. If your hair is thin and wavy and doesn’t demand much heat.
2. If you have very damaged hair.
Well, that wraps up this beauty class I hope you guys can find what suits best your style and hair type, much luck to everyone and happy styling. Any doubts or thoughts? Feel free to ask on the comments down below!
I love you all so much
Thank you a bunch for sharing this with all of us you actually understand what you are talking about! Bookmarked. Please also discuss with my site =). We may have a link trade agreement among us!
An attention-grabbing dialogue is value comment. I think that you must write extra on this matter, it might not be a taboo subject however usually individuals are not sufficient to speak on such topics. To the next. Cheers
Well I sincerely liked reading it. This subject provided by you is very practical for proper planning.
Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
