Cordless straighteners are the main choice for a variety of reasons. You can take cordless straighteners on holiday with you, or on work trips. With cordless straighteners you can manoeuvre the gadget easily without getting your hair tangled. Used in the correct way cordless straighteners should do less damage than the alternative permanent methods.
If you want a more long-term change to your hair you would need to go to the hairdresser to have a chemical treatment rather than using cordless straighteners. You can apply a chemical treatment at home, but you need to be as careful with this as you would be with a home perm, so cordless straighteners would be a better option if you want to do-it-yourself.
Chemical treatments are called ‘relaxing’ the hair, but they can be very harsh, so you may want to use cordless straighteners even if you ask a professional to do the job for you. The chemicals used can irritate the scalp and cause dry, brittle and damaged hair, and you need to return to have the roots done, whereas a cordless straightener would need to be used more often but could help you avoid possible side-effects.
If your hair is fragile you’ll need to be careful with cordless straighteners. There are hair products available to help you protect your hair from heat damage and they’re worth using. Follow the instructions on your cordless hair straighteners carefully to get the best effect and also to be as gentle on your hair as you can.
