Home hair styling has never been easier. We’re lucky to live in an age where it’s possible to change our hair as often as we change our mood (and for some of us that’s pretty regularly!). Fancy a full head of bouncing curls one day and a super sleek and straight mane the next? All you need is a great set of straighteners that deliver salon standard results while protecting the hair from unnecessary heat damage.
Many of us equate hair straighteners with high temperatures that could dry out our hair, but according to the experts at Vidal Sassoon it’s possible to achieve a great look without using extreme heat. Here’s what they reckon makes for a great straightening experience:
Ionic technology
Ionic technology is used to emit negatively charged ions onto the hair shaft to break down water molecules and lock in the natural moisture in the hair, leaving it looking shiny, smooth and ultra-glossy. The Sassoon Hydragloss Straightener boasts variable ionic technology to create super chic locks whatever your hair type and look.
Ceramic plates
Ceramic plates allow for smooth contact with the hair shaft, preventing snagging and minimising heat damage which can sometimes occur during hair styling. They also improve heat distribution through the hair so that results are perfect every time. Sassoon’s Perfectly Smooth Straightener is the ultimate tool for adding that finishing touch to straight, sleek styles. Featuring ceramic plates with a top temperature of 230°c, straightening is quick and simple, achieving smooth styles at home that really wow.
Variable heat settings
Not all hair is the same, and we don’t all need a sizzling heat to iron out kinks. High heat can damage fine hair, so the hottest temperatures don’t always lead to the best styles. Sassoon’s Platinum Edition straightener gives maximum hair protection with the glitziest of results. Complete with 25 variable heat settings and a luxury heat-proof pouch, it achieves sleek, straight hair that glimmers.
Ease of use
Let’s face it, technology isn’t everything and sometimes we just want a straightener we can drop in to our bags and use after the gym, or for a quick fix in the office before after-work drinks. Sassoon’s Limited Edition Maxi Mini straighteners are ideal for women on the go.
If you fancy sleek and shiny locks, invest in a great pair of straighteners to keep you on the straight and narrow this summer – or why not book yourself in for a fantastic hair fix at a Vidal Sassoon salon near you?
