The grade and quantity of ceramic coating determines so much about the quality of your straighteners. It affects how well the heat distributes throughout the straightener, keeping it at the temperature selected and even throughout the plate with no hot spots. It creates an easy and effortless glide during straightening with no snagging, flattening your hair cuticles for silky, smooth and shiny results. And it ensures long-life plate wear, protecting the plates against styling product and scratching. As well as featuring ceramic, the Straightini also boasts the protective and smoothing powers of Teflon. Teflon is a highly durable material with non-stick properties and its fibres are wrapped around the plates to gently cushion the straightener. This shields your hair from damaging hot spots and direct contact with the metal helping the plates glide through your hair minimising the heat damage caused and keeping your hair as protected and healthy as possible
