Features
Only devices made according to the latest innovations will handle your hair as gently as possible. One of the most important factors that influence both the health and the quality of installation is the material of the coating plates ironing.
There are the following types of coating heating plates:
- metal,
- ceramic,
- Teflon,
- titanium,
- combined.
In professional high-quality models of ironing today there are no metal plates, because they have a number of drawbacks - they attract particles of cosmetics, they very slowly heat up and cool down, which makes the hair straightening procedure significantly longer. It is almost impossible to adjust the heating temperature, and this is a direct danger of damaging the hair structure.
Ceramic coating does not affect hair structure so much. Sometimes ceramic plates can also be produced with tourmaline or diamond coating. Tourmaline material has some antistatic properties, which is very conducive to quality styling.
Teflon plates provide a perfect glide ironing hair, which means that the time of the harmful effects of high temperatures is significantly reduced. You get stylish styling and preserve beautiful and healthy hair.
The leader among other materials is a titanium coating. It provides one hundred percent result - perfectly smooth hair, but at the same time, the device does not harm them.

Heating adjustment
Each girl has an individual hair type. In some, for example, they can be thick, hard, of a natural color, while in others they can be thin, soft and lightened. In order to protect each of the hair types, rectifiers with titanium plates must necessarily have a heat adjustment function.
Plates ironing can heat up to two hundred degrees. That is why you should remember the important rules of compliance with temperature regimes when laying with the help of irons:
- If your hair is colored, quite thin and split - The maximum allowable temperature that you can set on the rectifier is 150 degrees. When exposed to higher temperatures, hair can be severely damaged.
- If you are the owner of normal hair of medium hardness, which were not dyed, You can set the temperature on the rectifier to no more than 180 degrees.
- If you have tough enough unpainted hair - You have the ability to set the temperature up to two hundred degrees.
The heating regulator is located on the iron with a titanium coating directly on the handle. Adjusting the temperature is very simple and intuitive.
In some models, a switch can be installed, in which there are 3 heating modes - the lowest, medium and high. In more expensive and modern models of rectifiers electronic temperature controllers are provided that allow you to set the temperature to within one degree.
It can be concluded that the temperature control function must be present in each model of the rectifier.
It is thanks to this that you can afford to regularly make beautiful styling - and not worry about the health of your curls.
On the forums on the Internet you can find a lot of reviews about irons with titanium coating.
The customers in general are very satisfied with their irons with this type of coverage. Many people write that the purchased devices turned out to be very high quality and durable - the devices have been working for them for several years, retaining all the functions and appearance.

I strongly advise everyone ironing CHI. Probably the best I've ever tried. CHI is an American company that produces professional cosmetics and hair products. I delighted with the ironing - it heats up in less than two minutes, the ceramic plates are floating, t.ch. The hair does not pull a hair iron. According to the manufacturer, it does not harm the hair (which, of course, is unlikely if you use it constantly and / or without thermal protection). The only negative is the lack of a temperature regulator, so if you have thin hair, you should use it with caution. Although, my hair is thin and I'm not complaining. True, we have them very difficult to get (((

Good afternoon everyone!) I ask for advice in the choice of straightened out. I choose a gift for my wife .. And since she daily straightens her curly hair from birth, she decided to give her a good, maximum with the least harmful effect on her hair and with WIDE plates (she was used to a wide ironing). Also, my wife has to straighten her hair still wet. Already read a bunch of forums. reviews. obkhorov, etc. and as a result I opted for 3 models:
1. BaByliss PRO BAB2091E
2. Babyliss ST289E
3. GA.MA IHT TOURMALINE WIDE P21.IHT.WIDE.
Actually there were a few questions. As I understand. the least harmful spraying is tourmaline. BUT. If it is indicated, as in the case of the 1st and 2nd models, the ceramic coating with ionization ... is the same as the tourmaline or ceramic coating is covered with just what ions and accordingly it is not so useful, for tourmaline is still a natural mineral. and its effects on hair is natural when heated?
And as indicated by the 2nd model specifically for wet hair. Is it just a marketing ploy or do these forceps really have the least harmful effect on raw hair? (Of course I understand that in any case, straightening wet hair is harmful). And is it possible to straighten wet hair by other models? Can anyone use the models I listed? And which brand is still better? It seems like they wrote that Gama is losing its positions in quality. Well, like that way) Everyone who responded in advance HUGE thanks for the help)

All correctly written. But, if the wife is accustomed to the wide, then why chose a narrow? The best is definitely 2091 or wide 2073.

Anfis, yes, like a 28x110 mm plate, compared to a 30x90 mm Gamow, it seemed to me much more interesting) I would be very grateful if you explain why you definitely recommend the 2091 model, and not the rest. To be honest, I liked the model 289 the most, and paid attention to the Gamov model only because of the supposedly beneficial effect of the tourmaline coating. So I was told in the company store at least and advised the company of din. Model 2073 threw back due to lack of ionization. At the same time, the company’s shop was also discouraged from the 2073 model because of the titanium coating, which is supposedly more harmful to the hair, and its main advantage is only greater resistance to mechanical damage and to chemical preparations applied to the hair. What can you say about this? By the way, in the models that I listed indicated that ionization is built-in. Does this mean something like an additional coating on the plates or as with ionization combs, where does this feature turn on with a separate button? With this moment I still have not figured it out.
quote = "Anfisa" All correctly written. But, if the wife is accustomed to the wide, then why chose a narrow? The best is definitely 2091 or wide 2073.

You also said that tourmaline is only for removing static. But what about these characteristics about tourmaline coating. Taken from the site you advised. :
"Tourmaline nano-particles provide uniform hair straightening, making them smooth and preventing tangling of hair, giving the hair a healthy shine. Tourmaline is a semiprecious stone, naturally having an ionizing effect. Ions are charged particles that, when exposed to hair, give shine and flexibility to hair. After exposure, hair becomes more silky. This allows you to improve the quality of hair straightening, getting healthier, smoother and more silky hair than before straightening. "
Or perhaps I do not fully understand something?

Solid advertising. Hair becomes smooth and silky, not because they have become healthier (which is not possible, in principle), but because they do not electrify and therefore this effect is obtained. Just tourmaline is in direct contact with the hair, maybe it is more effective. Although if you use styling products, the hair is not electrified and so. Vav289 just not professional, but take it. Everything is better than the current din. Especially P21 who chose.
- December 15, 2013, 17:39
Yes, I just did not even consider it at all. Just advised him in the shop. They embarrassed me shorter. Well, about Gama, I understood everything, like a couple of days ago. It remains to choose something from the French. I thought the difference in the length of the wire and the speed of heating. And since these functions are present here and there, the question arose .. what is the difference in professionalism? and why all the same certainly 2091 or 2073? and can 2091 straighten wet hair?
- December 15, 2013, 22:33
Can. Where there are holes, you can. In general, take Remington s8510. The hair is really silk. And he is the least harmful. You really bother. to my mind. Especially in the case of wet hair. What is the purpose of their final drying with a rectifier? To further expose high temperatures? A straightener with a high t will do its job quickly, and an air conditioner (only in remington) will not let the hair dry out.
- December 15, 2013, 22:52
I am not bothering the word. Just want to choose the best for your woman. but about wet hair .. she just often is late and therefore she has to straighten her wet hair. here and focused on this attention. Okay. Thank you so much for the advice! Without your help, I would break my head for a long time. Hopefully choose a thing to do.
- December 16, 2013 19:33
Well, this is a professional firm. Good too. They are full of good. And the reviews are written mostly who has nothing more to do. What is advertising, then buy. Accordingly, reviews are written.
- December 16, 2013 20:20
in general, I meant reviews like yours. Forum so to speak. what they write on the websites of shops, I never pay attention. In general, probably I’ll stop my choice on model 2073. The truth is a little confusing that there is no ionization there. Then I would have to purchase a comb with ionization) of course I would have felt all the same. but I don’t sell these in the city (only Phillips is equal and Remington. I have to order via Internet.
- December 16, 2013, 10:09 PM
although of course, and the model 2091 also likes. I stopped all the same on two. 2091 and apparently nothing and the ionization function is captivating. But, considering that I have never used this device, I do not even know how useful this function is. Does she even really help and is needed in rectifiers? And then, to be honest, I probably got stuck on it most of all and on the coating of the plates, too. Even he was already tired of choosing a model and he already wanted to buy something worthwhile)
- December 17, 2013 19:06

I think you have a fake, because everywhere they write that bebilis France production!
excuse me. Where did you see the Babilev ironings made in France today? BaByliss is a French brand, but it can be produced anywhere and profitable for the company itself. do you think all laptops are SONY, ACER, TOSHIBA, APPEL, etc.? fakes, because all polls are made in China. Do not frighten people with such statements.

Models are different, but almost all are quite expensive. The devices cherish the hair, heat up quickly, allow you to adjust the temperature in a wide range.

Additional functions
As additional features are presented:
- Replaceable nozzles,
- "Locks" and blockers,
- Heating indicator,
- Floating plates
- Temperature adjustment display.
Additional features are not always necessary. But the device is much more expensive.
Electric comb
Comb has won a lot of fans, as copes with its task
The device is a massage comb to which the wire is attached. So it connects to the outlet. As a result, it heats up. When combing hair with such a brush, they are smoothed and straightened. In contrast to the ironing, it does not smooth out curls, but is suitable for wavy hair, as a way of straightening without loss of volume.
What is a hair straightener?
The first hair straightener appeared back in 1906 and, oddly enough, it was invented by a man named Simon Monroe. At first, it consisted of two metal combs for combing hair, a little later, namely after three years, he appeared already in our usual form, as an appliance of two heating plates.
The principle of the iron for the hair is as follows: release from moisture that accumulates in the hair, due to the heating of the plates and, as a result, hair straightening.
Plates are different 
With regular exposure to high temperature on the hair, their structure is destroyed, and they become more brittle. Of course, before laying it is necessary to apply special hair products and not to use the iron daily. However, in addition to this, the material of the coating of the plates of the hair straightener is important. Consider their features.
Due to the uneven heating of metal plates in the hair iron, the hair is burned through, but the only advantage is perhaps the low price.
The most popular ceramic coating now. Pros: uniform heating, easy slip, durability. The only negative is sticking of styling products and their burning.
Tourmaline coating removes static electricity from the hair, giving it a healthy shine, which is especially popular when wearing hats.
Thanks to the teflon coating, it is easy to slip on the strands, hair styling products do not stick and do not burn.
To purchase a titanium-coated hair straightener, you will have to spend a rather large amount of money, however, as a bonus, you will get perfect smoothness of the plates, easy sliding, even temperature distribution, fast warm-up, durability.
If you take into account the ratio of price and quality, then the best choice would be a hair iron with a ceramic coating.
Now you know what to look for, which will allow you to make the right choice of hair straightener.

How a hair straightener works - experts will tell
Consider reviews from professionals:
The principle of operation of all irons is the same - they remove the excess moisture from the hair, reducing their volume. Such devices dry strands, but there are models on the market that do similar work with the least damage. Carefully approach the selection of the rectifier surface. Devices with a metallic coating ruthlessly plait curls. Try to use protective equipment.
Tips on how to use the device correctly
We will understand the terms of use:
- Before using the ironing it is worth drying your hair.
- Apply a protective agent to protect the curls from high temperature damage and to facilitate smoothing.
- Comb your hair.
- After the device reaches the optimum temperature, separate the thin strand and slowly move from the roots to the tips, not lingering in one place. Straightening is recommended to start from the bottom level.
- After completion of work, let the iron cool and put aside.
Important: Do not store the device in wet areas.
Hairbrush rectifier: reviews of what it is
The straightening comb is an electrical device that makes the strands smooth and straight due to the high temperature.
By the form the hairbrush practically does not differ from a usual massage brush. The difference lies in the greater weight and availability of power from the mains (batteries).
On modern models there is an electronic board, the possibility of choosing the temperature, the function of ionization.
Popular review about the new product:
Progress does not stand still, has long wanted to try a comb comb. Really straighten up in seven minutes. Curls are not confused in the bristles, the device does not spoil them, pleasantly massages the head. I recommend to buy!
Philips Pro Straightener HPS930 Titanium Hair Straightener
Hair straightener - this is probably the only device that will never go out of fashion and will be in demand for centuries rather than years! And we will only observe the transformation of these devices and continue to use them. And it will be about this device Philips HPS930 / 00 Pro.
Opening the box, I saw a stylish design, and putting this photo on instagram nobody could understand what it was ?!
And when it came time to pull out the curling iron, I felt how comfortable it was in my hand.
Stylish temperature controller, which is hidden inside.
Also included is a thermally insulated case
Unlike cases, this attachment seemed to me much more convenient to use.
But the feature of this rectifier is not in design, but in plates with titanium coating!
If you do not know what it is about, then it is worth recalling about the existing types of coatings:
1. Rectifier with metal coating The cheapest and most harmful devices for hair. If you have such a coating at the rectifier, then give it up forever, thanks to it your hair will become dry at best, and at worst you can burn it!
2. Rectifier with ceramic coating is the most common device today. He will not ruthlessly treat his hair, because he has a more even distribution of heat and an optimal temperature for his hair.
3. Rectifier with titanium coating unlike ceramics, it has increased smoothness, which reduces the risk of hair damage. Also, this coating is responsible for making hair shine.
Another feature of the rectifier Philips HPS930 / 00 Pro- “Floating plates”
“Floating plates” is not just another trick of the manufacturer to attract attention, since the presence of plates that, when pressed hard during straightening, begin to spring back to avoid fragility of hair!
And the last feature that finally “killed me” - presence of ionization.
We have already discussed this function with hair dryers and came to the conclusion that it would clearly be better with it than without it)
Price: 3.570r
Conclusion: Hair straightener is not a device that you can use for 5 years! After all, from year to year there are new, more benign functions that affect the health and overall appearance of the hair.
Therefore, if you have forgotten how old your rectifier is, then the New Year is an excellent reason to buy a new one: music
What kind of rectifier do you use ?! And what functions are built from those that I listed?
