However you choose to fight nature – to make limp hair curly or your waves stick straight – you’ll find yourself depending on, even getting addicted to, a curling or flat iron. Styling tools can get very hot – up to 180 degrees – and (especially for those who need their daily fix) can be damaging to the hair. The key is to choose the right kind of heated styling device and a good thermal protection product that isn’t just coconut oil and silicone.
The technology behind hair irons and hairdryers has improved significantly over the years. Choose one that uses tourmaline, a silicate mineral. This is a natural source of negative ions and electricity. The negative ions counterbalance the positive ions that come with frizz. One of things that they do is break down water molecules so that some of them are small enough to enter the hair shaft and your locks retain moisture. Favorites are the Sedu Revolution Hair Dryer and the Solia Tourmaline Flat Iron. Meanwhile, good hair protection potions double up as all-day frizz fighters. We have found a selection to suit every budget, purists who eshew chemicals and those who just want a good job well done.

Hi Marta,
This is completely off topic, but I don’t know how else to get help. I registered for the Community and received an email with a temporary password but the email states that the account requires activation from an administrator – how does that happen? When I tried to sign in, I got a message that my username is invalid. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Angela, I don’t know why that happened. I’ve deleted you from the database, so have another go. If it doesn’t work email me at marta@truthinaging.com and I’ll ask Rick, our admin to look into it.
