The best temperature for styling hair to protect your hair from damage
Share
You may be confused about which temperature can achieve the best effect without burning your hair for home styling? Today OUESTBEAUTY will reveal to you the standard safety issues about hair straightening brushes, curling irons and hair dryers, so that you don’t have to worry about the temperature being too high and damaging your baby’s hair!
How to determine the appropriate temperature?
The highest temperature that hair can withstand depends entirely on the quality of the hair. If you have fine and soft hair, 100 degrees to 130 degrees is enough to style your hair; if your hair is dry, easy to break or damaged, keep the temperature between 130 degrees and 150 degrees; if your hair is dense, thick, and curled, the temperature is suitable to be adjusted to 150 degrees to 180 degrees. No matter what kind of hair, one principle: hair quality, hair quality, hair quality! No matter what temperature you style your hair, as long as your hair is healthy and moisturized enough, you can protect your hair from temperature damage.
Hair Straightening Brush:
The most suitable temperature is 100°C--180°C.
If you use a Hair Straightening Brush! It is best to buy a cordless hair straightening brush with a temperature display, which can help you better control the temperature and avoid damaging your hair. Generally speaking, keep the temperature below 150 degrees, and 200 degrees is enough to achieve any hairstyle you want. 200-230 degrees can help you style quickly, but remember to control the time well to avoid damaging your hair. Think about it, hair is like paper, it will melt at a temperature above 230 degrees. So no matter what hairstyle you want to do, it is not worth getting close to that value.
Curling iron:
The most suitable temperature is 135°C--180°C
If you use a curling iron to perm your hair, we recommend keeping the temperature between 150--170 degrees. If you just want to make the mediocre hair ends less rigid and add a little curl, you can adjust the temperature to between 170--180 degrees. If you want to make the curls more pronounced or create a more retro look, lower the temperature to between 135-150 degrees and let the hair stay on the curling iron for a few seconds.
Hair dryer:
Optimal temperature 30°C-40°C
Most hair dryers do not have a temperature display and adjustment function like curling tools. If your hair dryer happens to be adjustable, we recommend setting the temperature to 30-40 degrees. If it does not have this function, set the hair dryer to medium temperature. A good hair dryer should have a strong fan speed so that the hair will dry quickly. Small portable hair dryers use high temperature and low speed, which will dry the hair and cause breakage and split ends.
Another way to avoid burning hair
Blow-dry your hair in batches. You can consider blowing your hair half dry and then letting it dry naturally, so that the hair will not rush to transition from 100% wet to 100% dry, and it can better retain the moisture of the hair.
