This product helps coat the hair so that the heat from the straightener does not immediately damage the hair citcula. Choose hot protective products that contain moisturizing materials such as argan oil or kematin to provide additional protection.

Don't use a straightener at too high temperatures. The ideal temperature to straighten is usually between 150200 degrees Celsius, depending on your hair type. If your hair tends to be thin or fragile, use lower temperatures to reduce the risk of damage.

Stuttering hair that is still wet can damage the hair structure more severely. Make sure the hair is completely dry before using a straightener. If possible, use a hair dryer with a low temperature before stocking.

Hair masks are intensive care that is needed by hair that is often exposed to heat. Use hair masks at least once a week to restore moisture and hair nutrients. Choose hair masks that contain natural ingredients such as crocodile tongue, coconut oil, or honey.

Hair that is often used requires extra care. Use shampoo and conditioner specifically for dry or damaged hair. These products usually contain additional moisturizing ingredients that can help maintain healthy hair.

Hair that is often used is prone to branching ends. Therefore, cut the ends of the hair regularly every 6-8 weeks to remove damaged parts and keep the hair healthy.

Hair products that contain alcohol can make hair drier. Check your hair care product labels and avoid those that contain high alcohol. Instead, choose products that contain natural ingredients and moisturize.

Choose a high-quality straightener equipped with technology such as ceramic coatings or tourmas. A straightener with this feature can help distribute heat evenly and reduce the risk of hair damage.
