The drying element within your hair dryer plays a large role in how your hair will turn out based on how much heat your hair ends up being exposed to. Cheap hair dryers that are notorious for drying out hair and leaving it frizzy and damaged use a plastic or metal heating element to produce the heat since these are very affordable. But professional hair dryers use ceramic heating elements, which produce a different type of heat, which effectively removes the moisture from your hair while not damaging it in the process. This is perfect for those who want only the best or blow-dry their hair frequently.

Professional hair dryers now do so much more than just dry your hair for you so you can style it. In the past hair dryers were the prime suspect when it came to finding out what was robbing your hair of its own natural moisture. Newer blow dryers such as ionic blow dryers now do more than dry your hair and dry it out. These dryers emit lots of negative ions, which break down the water molecules to dry your hair and help your locks retain their own natural moisture in the process so your hair does not dry out and always look its best.

Using an old coil based hair dryer on your hair will rob it of its own natural moisture that is essential to the health and vitality of your tresses. Of course if it has been awhile since you have looked into hair dryers you may be surprised to learn that newer dryers will not only not damage your hair, but will also make it healthier with the new technology advances which have occurred.
Professional hair dryers now use other ways to dry your hair other than blowing air over warm coils. Ionic dryers now infuse your locks with negative ions, which will break the water molecule down as opposed to just blowing it away with hot air. These negative ions penetrate your hair and will not only break down those water molecules they will also hydrate it from the inside out. This will result in hair that is not just healthier, but it will be more vibrant and have more body as well. The proper moisture in your hair can be the difference in getting the look you want and avoiding those frizzes that drive every woman crazy. Though these ionic hair dryers may cost a little more they are worth every penny.

Easy Steps for Beautiful Straight Hair
October 21, 2008 by Elena · Leave a Comment
If you have never used a hair straightener before, you might be a little bit overwhelmed by getting the look just right. Professional hair stylists make it look so easy when you are sitting there in the salon, but when you get home it can be very tricky trying to handle the iron, and the spray at the same time. Not to mention the combs and brushes.
So is there a simple way to achieve the straight hair that you want? Absolutely. All it takes is a little know how and some practice. Before you even attempt to style your hair like the professionals, you need the proper tools. You will need a blow dryer, preferably one with ionic technology because it will dry your hair faster and with less damage. You will also need a hair straightener, if you’re looking for straight, shiny hair.
When you purchase a hair straightener
, look for one with ceramic or tourmaline plates or a combination of both. These hair irons will give you the best result and will not damage your hair like cheaper irons made with glass or metal plates. Using a hair straightener that is poor quality is only frustrating because it will not work as effectively and it will damage your hair in the long run.
Before you can attempt to straighten your hair, it must be dry. Comb out your hair to remove any large tangles with a wide toothed comb. Never brush wet hair, it only damages and pulls your hair resulting in broken hairs. Aim your blow dryer down, to close the hair cuticle as you dry. This will help your hair lay flatter and look smoother. Once your hair is dry, you can begin the straightening process.
It is usually a good idea to use a thermal spray on your hair as you are styling it. A thermal spray will give your hair added protection and will help your hair look its best, resulting in shiny, healthy looking hair. Be sure however that you only use a light mist of the product instead of a heavy spray. If you apply it too heavily it will feel sticky and look clumpy which is not the look you are after.
Divide your hair into sections for easier styling. Always start at the back, with the undermost side of hair. Mist the hair lightly with the spray and take a small section in your hand. Some people like to use a comb while they straighten, but others find this clumsy. It’s up to your preference. Starting at the crown of your head, clamp the iron over the hair and very gently slide the iron down the length of your hair. Depending on the thickness of your hair and how much hair you put in the iron at once will depend on how long you need to hold the iron on the hair.
Continue straightening each section around your head, remembering to apply the thermal spray before each pass of the iron. Finish at the front of your head. When you are done, you may want to apply a straightening balm that will provide shininess and smooth out any bits of hair that are sticking up.
The final result is beautiful smooth, straight hair that looks and feels healthy and beautiful. If you want flips and curls in your hair as well, you can achieve that with your hair straightener as well, but that’s a lesson for another day.
