Flat Iron Tips

Lots of people flat iron their hair and end up burning it and damaging and having it turn out frizzy lol. These are some tips on how to get results you will love to show off!

• Pick the right size flat iron. For short, thick or fine hair: Use an iron with narrow plates ranging in size from half-an-inch to one-inch thick.  For long, thick or fine hair: Use an iron with wider plates ranging in size from one-and-a-half inches to two-inches wide so you're able to cover more surface area in less time Also, be weary of the weight of your iron.
•  Select the right heat setting. For fine or damaged hair: 250-300 degrees. For medium/average hair: 300-350 degrees. For thick or coarse hair: 350-400 degrees.
