Brand info
The Remington brand dates back to the 19th century. However, back in 1816, the company was engaged in the production of weapons, and only a few decades later, typewriters were added to the range. A complete change of direction of activity took place in 1937, when the company began to conquer the market for household appliances. Now the brand belongs to the Spectrum Brands Corporation (USA), and the main production is located in the People's Republic of China.
It was the Remington company that pioneered the production of dry electric shavers, and subsequently released replaceable heads for them. And also among the innovations of this brand are hair straighteners, trimmers for delicate areas (male and female).
Now Remington specializes in the production of hair and body care products (hair dryers, epilators, trimmers, hair clippers, hair straighteners, electric razors).

Varieties and lineup

To make hair styling easier, the developers have equipped the products with turn-on indicators, a temperature memory function, and a rotating cord.

All irons can be roughly divided into 2 types: with a ceramic and tourmaline coating.
Ceramic coated
Ceramic has a smooth surface, due to the uniform heating of the plate, the hair is protected from overheating of individual areas. Since hair particles and styling products adhere to ceramics, the plates must be cleaned regularly. This coating belongs to the economy class, and the service life of ceramic coated products is usually short, about 3 years.
Let's look at several models with ceramic coating.
- S6300 - a straightener with a microconditioner, which is designed for colored curls. Its composition prevents dullness and sun fading. The plates in this model are elongated and floating. There are several temperature settings to suit different hair types.
An advanced ceramic coating makes it easy to glide over curls.

Tourmaline coated
The tourmaline coating emits negative ions when heated, which reduces the electrification of the hair. Tourmaline-coated plates are considered to be more durable and comfortable, as fine hair and residues of hair products do not stick to them during use. Just like ceramics, tourmaline heats up evenly and protects hair from temperature extremes.
The company produces a number of models with this coating.
- S1510 - a simple and functional model at an affordable price. The plates are coated with several materials: ceramics, tourmaline and Teflon, each of which has a specific function. Tourmaline ionizes the hair, Teflon allows the plates to glide quickly and gently over the curls, and ceramics ensures even heating of the hair. The plates heat up quickly, there is overheating protection.

Terms of use
The convenience of using a hair straightener is an important factor. Most Remington models weigh no more than 400g and are thin and lightweight to keep your hands from getting tired while stacking. Before buying an iron, try to hold it in your hands - the power and adjustment buttons should be conveniently located, but without the possibility of accidentally pressing (if the model does not have an auto-lock function).
And also you need to take into account the length of the cord, which should be such that it is convenient for you to do your hair near the mirror. Pay attention to the mount - it must be strong and rigid, rotate freely and not twist the cable.
The width of the plates should be chosen depending on the length and density of hair: for thick and long hair - wider, then the process of using the iron will become pleasant and easy.
For ease of use and safety of the user, the manufacturer can additionally complete the model with a furniture stand, a heat-resistant cover.

And a few more tips from professionals.
To straighten your hair with a Remington iron, follow a few simple steps.
- Comb your hair, divide it into 2 sections. Gather the upper part of the strands in a bun so that they do not interfere.
- Start straightening the curls from root to tip, starting at the back of the head.
- The thickness of the curls should be about 0.5 cm - this will make the straightening process more thorough. Each strand needs to be combed well, while it is recommended not to process one more than twice.
- After the entire bottom of your hair is straightened, pin it up. Dissolve the top bun, repeat the straightening process, separating small strands starting from the temples. Straightened curls can be stabbed so they don't get in the way.

You can curl your hair with an iron.
Let's see how to do this.
- Divide your hair into 2 sections, pin the top into a bun. The curling process should be started from the back of the head to the face.
- The larger the strands you separate, the thicker your curls will be.
- Comb the strand well, fix the iron at the desired height (near the chin or slightly above / below). The beginning of the curled curl will depend on the height.
- Turn the iron over a couple of times - and the strand will twine around, slowly draw it to the ends. The direction of twisting is at your discretion.
- Natural curls can be obtained by alternating the directions "from the face" and "to the face". Hollywood style is performed only "from the face" technique.
- Perform the action with each strand, including the top bundle.
To make the waves more natural, you can lightly comb the curls after curling.

It is very important to properly prepare the hair for the styling process:
- rinse your hair well, ridding it of the products from the previous styling;
- dry thoroughly (if you do not use a model with a hairdryer) - due to wet hair, the styling will not last long;
- apply a heat protectant to your hair (it is recommended to apply it to all hairs at once, and not to individual strands).
