How to Get Shiny Straight Hair

To get those healthy, straight, and sleek A-list strands it’s easier than you think! All you need is the proper tools and technique. Here’s how to get shiny, straight hair that’s celeb-worthy:

Choose the right size flat iron

• For short (thick or fine hair) requires narrower plates ranging from ½ inch to 1 inch in thickness, which will let you work with smaller sections.
• For long (thick or fine hair) wider plate are required, ranging from 1 ½ inches to 2 inches. This will also let you reach more surface in less time.

Selecting the proper heat setting

• Your hair type and texture will ultimately determine the heat setting. Fine or damaged hair demands a lower temperature (250-300 degrees), medium/average hair will do will with 300-350 degrees, and thick or coarse hair will work best with the higher range (350-400 degrees).
• The plate material is also an essential component. You’ll want to go with ceramic plates since they’ll be the gentlest on your strands, distribute heat evenly, and release negative ions to tighten the hair’s cuticle.

Have the Proper Technique
