Hi, I just recently discovered hair straighteners, my hair is about 3 inches (and seems to be taking ages to grow)
Anyway the question I have is how often should you use them. They are great as they keep my hair nice straight and tidy as I comb it all back but as soon as I wet it my hair naturally goes mental and wavey.
How often should I use the straightners - as I heard they will ultimately damage my hair with too much heat. Currently I use it about twice a week.
they can damage your hair if you use them too much because of the heat, i've only used them once and the same thing happened, i don't think twice a week is too much, i know a girl in my school who uses them everyday and her hair looks to be getting damaged by them
i've used mine for about twice a week for over two years with minimal damage. you just have to be careful and not leave the flatiron on your hair too long...the secret is to keep it moving. of course, if your hair is around 3 inches in length, the flatiron can't actually "move" through your hair...hmmm, just be careful!
they really don't damage your hair if you use it correctly.
good luck!
