On the one hand, it may seem that such an unusual and multifunctional unit has no drawbacks. However, there are some points to pay attention to.
- Stylists do not recommend using a styler every day. They argue that constant exposure to hair leads to damage to its structure. The only reason for the negative impact is not the heating temperature, but constant friction. To do the least damage to your hair, use the ionization function. However, stylists still recommend giving the curls some time to breathe.
- Before you start creating a hairstyle, you need to apply special styling cosmetics to your hair. But these compounds, when exposed to heat, negatively affect the structure of the curls.
To prevent severe hair damage, it is important to take breaks between styles, and use regenerating balms and masks every time you wash your hair.
