5 Ways to Prevent Heat Damage When Using Hair Tools
We all love to style our hair. Those perfect curls for the night out or the sleek straight look for the board meeting, hair tools are our lifesavers! But the harsh reality? Styling can come with unwanted hair damage if you don't look after it. Here are five ways to protect and pamper your locks while ensuring they look great each and every day.
1. Heat Protectant Sprays
Before you even plug in your tool, reach for heat protectant spray. It's the hair equivalent of sunscreen, shielding your strands from heat-induced harm. When picking your spray, choose a trustworthy brand that has recognizable accreditations. Spritz generously from root to tip before styling, and you'll instantly reduce breakage and frizz.
2. Choose Titanium or Ceramic Tools
Quality matters. When choosing hair tools, go for ceramic or titanium ones. Tools made with these materials distribute heat evenly, reducing 'hot spots' that can scorch your hair. They may be a bit pricier, but your hair will thank you in the long run.
3. Lower the Heat
We often crank hair tools to the highest setting, but high heat isn't necessary for all hair types. If you have fine or colored hair, stick to the lower settings. Your hair will style just as beautifully, without the intense heat damage.
4. Deep Conditioning Treatments
Heat styling can leave hair dry and brittle. Combat this by treating your hair to a deep conditioning treatment once a week. These intensive moisturizing treatments will restore hydration, leaving your hair soft, shiny, and more resistant to heat damage.
5. Give Your Hair a Break
Finally, remember that everyone needs a day off, even your hair! Try to go heat-free one or two days a week. Embrace your natural texture, and explore heatless styling methods - your EDRÉE hair tools aren’t going anywhere and will be there when you need them! Not only will this reduce heat damage, but it also encourages healthier hair growth.
So now that you're armed with these tips, style responsibly! Here's to beautiful hair that's not just stunning, but strong and healthy.
