Cheap hair straighteners?

What are some good ones?



And whats a good heat protectant?



Thanks! :)Cheap hair straighteners?
i would say a porcelain straightener and it also depends on your price range but you can get pretty good prices on themCheap hair straighteners?
I have a Remmington Tstudio hair straigtener. I got it at Target. It was super cheap and it works really well.



I'm not sure about the heat protectant. Every kind I've ever had has worked pretty much the same.
The best cheap hair straightener I've had is the Revlon Model RV059C. Its a 2 inch plate straightener. Yes, its not ceramic, but it didn't really damage my hair when i used a protector. That straightener was wonderful, under 20 bucks, and i only needed to pass it through once to get beautiful shiny hair, it did it really fast, and it lasted me for years.

I tried other straighteners, like conair and stuff, and they dont seem to do a good job, i have very coarse and unruly hair so they wouldnt do anything for me, and i had to pass it through several times to get any results.

I havent been able to find this straightener in stores so i ordered it online the last time from drugstore.com.

I upgraded to a chi cuz i had a lil more money, but if i didnt, I would have stayed with the Revlon one.



I use Redken heat protector and thast good, but you can use any other ones you find in the store. A cheap one thats good is one by Treseme, you can find it anywhere.
of course with ';cheap'; irons, you aren't going to get professional results, but i think that Salon inspired brands like ZOE which can be found at ulta, Wigo and Remington all offer affordable options that work pretty good for a really good price.



Ulta also offers more salon inspired brands like Zoe, that work better than Revlon at a decent price

As for heat protectors, a lot of them work the same. Tresemme, Suave, and Vo5 all make heat sprays, but sally's offers a great product called BEYOND THE ZONE, but it is a little bit more pricey than the drug store sprays:

Also, to prevent damaging your hair, use a deep conditioner once a week :)



good luck!
Sorry but don't even bother. A cheap flat iron is CHEAP, it will not work as you would expect for it to work and your hair won't stay staight for very long. If you really want it then just save up for a while until you buy a good one. But your not going to find a good one
you should try the morphy richards head gear really good and worth the money and its not that expensive either and has a long life!...you can use any heat protectant serum as long as its a trustable brand

all the best

cheers=)
conair it is cheap and its good
the ones at sally beauty are pretty good

i have a jilbere de paris and it works good(:

for heat protectants, i have tresemme heat protectant spray which is good,

another good one is vo5 heat protectant spray which comes in a scarlet colored bottle
