The Best Hair Straightener
A: The definition of "best" is very subjective. It all depends on the amount of money you are willing to spend. Of the top ten best-selling hair straighteners, there are products by Solia, Sedu, HAI, Bion, and Hot Tools. But there are also straighteners by many other makers that may work just as well for you, and be less costly.
There are other factors that you have to consider in choosing a hair straightener. One of the first is the length of your hair. The longer your hair is, the larger the plates of your straightener need to be. Your straightener should be just wide enough to allow you to quickly heat the length of hair you have.
For shorter lengths of hair, you want a narrower straightener. This allows you to have more control over the hair as you straighten it. (The size of your straightener will effect the cost.)
Another factor is the condition of your hair. Because these appliances use high heat, they can damage the hair, especially if the hair is already damaged or in poor condition. In this situation, you may want to select one of the straighteners designed to help smooth the cuticle layer. These models do tend to be more expensive, but many people really rave over the results they give.
The bottom line isn't so much what is the best straightener, but what is the best straightener for you. You're going to need to make that determination for yourself based on your hair's length and condition, and your budget.
