What does it mean to have tourmaline-ceramic plates?
Flat irons are made using a variety of materials but the most common are ceramic, titanium and a tourmaline ceramic blend. The pure ceramic plates are the lowest quality and generally the least expensive. These kinds of straighteners are sold at discount stores for less than $50.00. Titanium plates are higher quality and are perfect for every-day use. Tourmaline and ceramic blended plates are the highest quality available, and provide the best styling results. They heat evenly and quickly and lock in moisture as they straighten the hair. The smooth material allows for snag-free straightening and styling.
The 2012 Model Karmin G3 Flat Iron ranges from 250°F to 460°F. The average person requires a temperature of 375°F to 395°F to achieve the best results, but having an adjustable temperature allows the Karmin G3 to meet the needs of every hair type and length.

How can I clean the plates of my Karmin G3?
If you use styling products in your hair, it is possible to create build-up on your flat iron plates. To clean it, ensure that the iron is unplugged and completely cooled. Do not attempt to clean your straightener while it is on or hot. Take a clean cloth and gently wipe the plates until the product is removed. You may also use warm water or flat iron cleaning solution for better results. Refrain from using a damp or wet cloth near the cord or electrical plug.
What is the difference between the Karmin Titanium and the Karmin G3 products?
The primary difference in these products is the material from which the plates are made. The Karmin Titanium irons are made from titanium while the G3s are made from a tourmaline ceramic blend. The tourmaline-ceramic plates are of slightly higher quality than the titanium. In addition, the G3 hair straighteners come in three colors (black, pink and white) and have a slightly higher temperature range. One final difference is that the G3 flat irons come with a free carrying case/heat mat.
