Tourmaline addition
Ceramic is already a commendable material for hair straighteners, but there is also the addition of another material used exclusively in electronic devices – Tourmaline. This one boosts and enhances the effectiveness of ceramic.

Because the generated amount of negative ions is increased for up to six times, it is more effective when straightening your hair. Plus, it also helps you decrease the duration of the styling process.

These negatively charged ions eliminate the frizz and unmanageability of the hair. They also lock and seal moisture inside the hair strands so that you get hair that has a vibrant natural color.

GHD Professional Ceramic 1.75″ Hair Straightener Flat Iron Review

peachy — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 09:18:10 +0000

Do you have long hair with strands that are rather thick? Are you frustrated with most hair straighteners you have tried which only does very little good for your heavy and unruly mane? Well fret no more and purchase this GHD Professional Ceramic 1.75″ Hair Straightener. Only within a few seconds of using this product, you’ll see the results that you have always yearned for.

GHD Professional Ceramic 1.75″ Hair Straightener Specifications:

width of the ceramic plate is 1.75 inches
operates at 50W, 110/120 V power supply only
weighs 0.78 pounds
standard pricing of $224.95 with a year of limited warranty from the manufacturer

Benefits of ceramic
By manufacturing the plates with the non-metallic ceramic materials, hair is kept away from damage as what traditional metal-plated flat irons do. Instead, the ceramic plates, when heated, produce negatively-charged ions – and these bring the good and beneficial effects of ceramic.

Also, with ceramic, there is a guaranteed uniform heat distribution from the hair straightener.

Water dispersion
The negative ions diffuse the water present in the hair into very minute droplets which will be able to pass through the hair shaft and cuticle. When the tiny water droplets have entered the hair, the negative ions lock the cuticles thereby sealing the moisture in the hair.

This results to the reduction of frizz caused by the static charging of positively charged ions. Hair then becomes shinier and lustrous in addition to having a rich and vibrant color.

Hair and health
Aside from bringing you hair that is shinier, smoothened and straightened, the negative ions also account for making your hair healthier. They act as an anti-germicidal tool in killing any present fungi and bacteria in the scalp as well as in the hair.

Special circuitry
This specially designed electronic circuitry of the hair straightener is responsible for the fast heat up and constant heat retention of the device, thus conserving energy. This produced heat alone makes it possible for hair to be efficiently styled and straightened.

Wider plates
Since the plates are wider than the usual one-inch width, this straightener is further made to be more efficient in smoothing out and styling even the thicker hair strands of the Afro-Caribbean people.

GHD Professional Ceramic 1.75″ Hair Straightener At A Glance…

Pros:

effective in straightening the hair
does not make your hair go frizzy
can work with different types of hair
ensures that your hair remains healthy
helps save on energy

Cons:

no control feature for heat

Ceramic-made plates
Non-metallic Ceramic flat irons are preferred over traditional flat irons made with metal plates because they effectively smoothen, straighten and style the hair all the while preventing any possible damage to your hair.

Negative ion technology
When the ceramic plates become heated in just ten seconds, this flat iron conveniently produces negatively charged particles which benefit the hair in more ways than one. These negative ions react with the positive ions that cause static electricity in the hair strands.

The statically energized hair is frizzy and generally looks untamed but all these adverse hair traits are eliminated by the negative ions so hair becomes smooth, straight and under control.

Anti-germicidal
Another positive benefits from the negative ions is that they act as germ busters that kill any bacteria and fungi present in the scalp and hair thus making hair healthier as it shines vibrantly with locked in moisture and natural color.

Plus Tourmaline
Together with the ceramic material, the plates too are made with Tourmaline, a crystalline mineral that are specifically used in electronic and electrical products like the flat iron. This addition of tourmaline makes for a more valuable generation of negative ions that enhances the look and texture of hair.

Additionally, tourmaline is responsible for the far-infrared heat generation which successfully dries the hair from the inside and eliminates further damage by excessive heat.

FHI Ceramic Technique 1″ Flat Iron At A Glance…

Pros:

lightweight
great and versatile hair styler
fast heat up, energy efficient
helps keep hair healthy and strong

Cons:

works best only for thin hair, may not work on thicker strands
