Best hair straighteners for every hair type, tried and tested
The IndependentStraighteners FAQs What are the best straighteners for my hair type? Ghd ambassador Patrick Wilson has shed some light on the debate: “The most important features to look for when buying hair straighteners are, of course, how well they perform and the temperature range. Some straighteners feature adjustable heat settings, which is recommend for all hair types, as it gives users more control over the tool, to suit their hair type and to avoid heat damage – using extreme temperatures over 185C is not advised. If you opt for straighteners with adjustable heat settings it is advised those with dyed, brittle, fragile or fine hair use the lowest setting at around 100C to 185C, while thick or coarse hair can work with higher temperatures, but always use heat protection sprays, if so. Some straighteners with adjustable heat settings can reach intense temperatures of 230C, which is to be avoided, especially for fine, short and damaged hair, as it can lead to irreversible hair damage.
