Healthier Hair Straightening Tips for the Rest of Summer

Keeping your hair long and healthy amid frizz can be challenging. However, with the right hair straightener and a few how-to tips, you can create the ideal look without damaging your hair.

The way you sleep makes a difference. 

Believe it or not, you do not have to sleep with your face in the pillow in order to maintain your look and prevent breakage. If you have recently used a flat iron, you can preserve your look by switching to a silk pillowcase. Silk’s smooth surface means you avoid hair damage and breakage caused by a rougher surface. Less friction during the night means less brushing in the morning, which means less damage! Plus, it also benefits your skin and looks beautiful on your bed! 

Straight shouldn’t mean lifeless. 

Straightening your hair doesn’t mean that it should be lifeless and without volume. Angle your styling iron and hair straight up towards the ceiling for added volume at the roots. This will save you from having to use extra hairspray and volumizer to get the look you want.

Double check your temperature.

For fine hair, high heat can cause more damage than to someone with thicker hair. Keep an eye on the temperature you have your flat iron at. Our Gold CONVERTABLE™ has a setting for every hair type, starting at 250°F up to 450°F.

Use a hair protectant.

Heat protectant is so important in keeping your hair soft and silky but many of us forget to apply it before we start straightening our hair. By providing a barrier between the flat iron and your hair you’ll keep from damaging it, meaning less split ends.

Follow the tips above to keep your hair healthy and looking great during the summer. For more tips on hair care, visit https://www.haibeautyconcepts.com.
