Hairbrush rectifier
Each woman wants to look good and amaze others with her brilliant appearance. Hairstyle plays a huge role in creating such an image. For effective and quick styling, hairdressing professionals have developed a revolutionary new product - a comb-straightener. It is suitable for any type of hair and will help the girl look stunning.
Features
Currently, one of the main tools used for hair straightening is the iron. It is an electrical device that has two thin plates, usually ceramic or tourmaline. Further, strands of hair are passed through these plates, which change their shape under the influence of heat. A significant disadvantage of this device is that the hair is exposed to thermal effects, which leads to fragility and changes in the structure of the hair.
Against the background of such a negative impact on the hair, the results of using a comb-straightener are amazing. This device has a heating temperature regulator, which makes it possible to contact the hair and the heating surface much less. In fact, you just need to comb your hair, no wonder the straightener is made in the form of a comb. It connects to the network, the teeth heat up and straighten the naughty curls. Its body is usually made of ceramic or plastic that is resistant to heat.
The device has a number of teeth, which are not subject to heating, they are located along the edge of the comb. This can significantly reduce the risk of damage or burns when using the device. An additional source of safety are the tips of the teeth, made, as a rule, in red, which also do not heat up, they carry out a massage function. This allows to improve blood circulation, contributes to the saturation of the hair follicles with oxygen.
The comb rectifier has a cord of about 2.3 m, and an additional mode during operation is accelerated heating. The weight of the comb does not exceed 500 grams, which allows you to take it with you on a journey or just to have it close at hand, it is small and can fit in a handbag. The manufacturer, as a rule, performs the device case in white or pink colors, on some models there is a liquid crystal screen.
Heating is an automatic process, the temperature varies from 60-80 degrees to 230.
It is very important to have an idea of how the device looks, so that you can easily distinguish the original model from the fake one. This is not particularly difficult if we consider the product more closely. A fake will be performed carelessly, the thermostat or a special screen that reflects the heating temperature will be absent.
In order to be sure of the authenticity of the comb-rectifier, it is best to buy it in official or large chain stores, which will precisely be able to provide the product with a certificate of quality.
Operating principle
Using a comb-rectifier is quite easy: the device is connected with an electric cord to the outlet and heats up very quickly. The device is made of ceramic or plastic, which are an excellent conductor of heat, so the temperature does not change and lasts until the end of use.
It should be understood that the time spent on styling will depend on many factors: the length and thickness of the hair, how much they are wavy or fluffy, curled or matted.
On average, it takes about 10 minutes for short and medium hair. However, with very short hair problems may arise, the comb can not always align them, you may have to refine the styling ironing.
The tourmaline coating allows heat to evenly distribute along the comb, which gives additional security - no burns on the skin or damage to the hair. This principle of action is possible due to negative ions, in the synthesis with which tourmaline is included. Ions have a beneficial effect on hair and on human health in general, contribute to the fact that in any weather curls will not electrify.
Soft and silky hair becomes, because their structure is affected by heat, it makes them very susceptible to mechanical stress. The bristles of a hairbrush, passing hair through itself straightens them. The position of the teeth on this comb is very important - they are staggered, which contributes to a uniform distribution of curls across the bristles, their combing and, as a result, leveling.
Do not over-pull the hair or hurry, you need to comb it slowly and carefully, take on a thin curl and start from the bottom, then the effect will be more lush. Movement should be smooth and measured, they lead to improved blood circulation.
All this, coupled with the massage effect of the tips of the combs of the comb, leads to an improvement in the condition of the hair, so-called “sleeping” follicles wake up. Following these instructions, you can make curls more dense.
With the help of a comb-straightener, you can get rid of split ends - the right brushing actions with heating give a certain effect, the cuticles are smoothed, and the scales are thoroughly attached to the spine. So the hair becomes much stronger, in connection with the less flogged and look more strong.
Although the device heats up immediately and has a temperature controller, it is worth remembering that it is necessary to set the mode correctly. If you set the temperature too low, the device will not heat up and the hair will not be able to even out, and if it is high, you can simply overdry it, which will lead to brittleness and split ends.
A very important point is the protective barrier for hair when using a comb, as well as other devices-rectifiers. To do this, apply a thermal spray to the hair or another means to help the hair during heat treatment. Such procedures will preserve the health of the hair, make them softer and more elastic.
