Item Description

EXTREME 3 IN 1 TITANIUM + TOURMALINE + CERAMIC HAIR IRON / STRAIGHTENER

Designed to be The World's Most Advanced Hair Iron.
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
EXTREME 3 in 1 Multi-Elemental Plates The #1 hair iron on in the world to give you the best of all technologies! These special hair irons are probably the first or only irons in the world known to use titanium and tourmaline+ceramic plates in a single device. This combination of expensive rare elements provides you with an unmatched array of negative ion and far infrared heat radiation sources which gives you a hair straightening capability unlike any other hair iron! This makes this one of the rarest hair irons available and puts it in a class of its own! This is rarely attempted by many other manufacturers (more details below).
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Powerful, Ultra Fast 20 second Heat Up + Ultra High 220°C Maximum This device will be ready to use in just 20 seconds from the moment you power it on (during a chilly winter day of ~16°C). This device uses enhanced MTC heating elements for rapid heating with very even heat distribution at above average temperatures. An excellent combination for anyone in a rush.
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Special Ultra Slim Surgical Precision frame Unlike other hair irons, this hair iron is almost twice as flat as other major brands on the market, allowing you to straighten hair without crushing and curling the hair around it at the roots (See below for more details).
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
'Floating' Suspension Plates Unlike various hair straighteners of the past, the plates on this device have a small suspension system like a car. This gives the straightener the ability to compensate its position for heat based warping, deformation and un-even hair bulges. This creates an even straightening effect for your hair, allowing you to get an even result every time. The suspended plates are alot less likely to pull out your hair because they will compensate and release some pressure if you press too hard.
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Easy Electronic Temperature Control The elegant water resistant electronic temperature control panel with Red LED indicators allows you to set the temperature of the plates with incredible ease from a cool 160°C to a fiery 220°C by pressing the buttons on the panel.

[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Superior Thermodynamics + Cold Touch Guide handle tips The new unique innovative porus design provides the ultimate in safe heat dissipation, allowing warm air to escape its slimline frame while keeping the tips and handles cool! This allows you to hold both the tips of the hair iron and the handles to control the applied pressure and navigate tricky areas of hair, just like the hair salon professionals!. The built in thermal fuse also prevents the iron from reaching dangerous levels of heat internally if the hair iron undergoes unexpected damage.
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Non-Slip build with 360 degree swivel cord+ Hanging Loop The solid gloss surface allows maximum skin contact, allowing the skin to grip the iron better than ceramic handles. We would never use rubberised or ceramic handles as they are too slippery or may pluck out hair (ouch!). The swivel joint also helps you focus on straightening your hair instead of straightening the power cord or fiddling with the iron, and you can hang the device from the loop at the swivel cord.
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Designed for Safety: Colour Changing ThermoChromic Plating + Safe Colouring Theme We care for our customers! Unlike most other hair irons, this iron comes with colour changing red coloured plate(s) which turn to a dark lava red shade when hot. The iron also comes with a thermal fuse and extra heat warning stickers and labels. We also coloured the device to give a stern reminder to any children or people nearby that it is HOT and should not be touched!. Don't let your loved ones get hurt by your hair iron after you use it! People who see red objects subconsciously tend to be more cautious and more alert to danger (compared to yellow and green or worse, pink hair irons which look like toys! - what were they thinking?).
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Two professional colours to choose from This device is available in metallic silver or gloss jet black. The colour is randomly selected based on stock, but you can request a colour using the "add a message/note to the seller" feature at eBay / PayPal checkout and we will do our best to fulfil your request. If you absolutely need a particular colour, please contact us first and await our reply before bidding.


Australian Government Approved & Compliance Checked for our Australian Customers
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]

Don't get tricked! Many other hair irons on eBay are ILLEGAL for sale in Australia and dangerous for Australian conditions.
It is illegal to sell a hair iron within Australia which has not been Australian approved and labelled; you or your loved ones could easily get electrocuted, injured or killed! (click here for details). Also, insurance may not cover any injuries or damages, and you may be held legally responsible! (click here for details) All the hair irons we sell to our customers within Australia are Australian approved, labelled and certified to comply with strict Australian electrical safety standards (AS/NZS 60335.2.23) and EMC C-Tick requirements, not just CE, CCC, CB or other lower foreign standards. The internal wiring, insulation and high quality components of our approved irons are Very different from other models, and Australian standards are among the highest in the world. As sellers, we undertake this very expensive (several thousand dollars) and exhaustive certification process to ensure that our Australian customers receive a hair iron that meets the required level of safety for use in Australia. Please be mindful of fakes / imitations, and note that overseas orders may be sent different versions.

How to tell? Scammers will 'Carefully avoid' answering your question if you ask them; saying the iron is QA/QC/CE/CCC/CB approved/certified/has passed custom checks, and will avoid saying it is Australian approved. The Answer should only be a 'Yes, it Australian approved and correctly labelled for sale in Australia as per Australian law', if not, don't buy it! The Australian government says: "Overseas Certificates of Approval and approval marks, such as the CE mark, are not acceptable in Australia." So beware Australian sellers that advertise with only QA/QC/CE/CCC/CB stickers/logos as an excuse. If an unapproved iron or one with a fake registration number is sold to you from within Australia, you should return it for a refund and report it to the local authorities. (click here for details on how to check if the labelling is authentic/fake).

Introduction to hair straighteners / irons
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
If you suffer from curly hair, this product may be just what you need! In simple terms, a hair straightener is like an 'iron' for the hair. It can be used to straighten hair (or curl hair depending on how skilled you are at rotating it). The heat and negative ions emitted by the straightener help re-align the structure of the hair at a molecular level, just as an iron helps straighten out wrinkles in a T-shirt. The difference in the hair straightener is that it is non stick and specially designed for the hair, working at temperatures from around 80 degrees Celsius to 220 degrees Celsius. No special creams are required although there are some that help (a simple google/bing search will show many brands).

Why don't i just get a permanent straightener chemical system or cream?
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Interestingly enough, even permanent straightening systems still require a hair iron or hair straightener to get results together with chemicals and creams. So you still need a hair iron either way. Permanent hair straightening is also very expensive, tricky to perform, and is not really permanent since hair grows over time. This device will last you years and makes an excellent companion even if you purchase permanent hair straightening systems.

Why use a Multi-elemental Tourmaline + Ceramic + Titanium 3 in 1 iron? Why not just use ceramic plates like other manufacturers?
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
We want to give you the best in hair straightening products. Investors know it is wise to diversify, so when we invested in this Extreme hair iron, we had all 3 of the best known hair straightening elements built into the plates, something rarely attempted in many other hair irons. Traditional ceramic hair irons usually rely on heat (in the form of various wavelengths of infrared radiation) which can damage the hair. This multi-elemental 3 in 1 iron emphasises on ionic and far infrared wavelengths, which should provide a better, healthier, and less damaging effect, thus resulting in a more superior result. This High Performance 3 in 1 Multi-elemental hair iron is designed to give you the best of all hair straightening technologies, and should result in shinier, silkier, smoother and healthier hair than other ceramic irons can theoretically achieve.

Tourmaline by definition is made up by a lot of elements in itself (so this hair iron has actually more than just 3 elements). Tourmaline and titanium are made of precious elements that possess unique ionic and infrared emission properties. Ceramic materials are also well known for their far-infrared emission properties that are best suited for straightening hair, rather than just 'burning' it. Tourmaline is said to be one of the strongest, longest lasting sources available, alongside titanium. The presence of Tourmaline and titanium minerals is said to produce unsurpassed performance, thus making this High Performance Tourmaline+Titanium+Ceramic Iron a class in its own. The secret is the use of this very expensive, natural emitter of negative ions and infrared heat.


 

Superior Benefits of an Ultra Slim Surgical Precision frame
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
We personally discovered one potentially significant drawback other hair irons suffer from. Because the perfection of Your HAIR style is very important to us, we analyse the use of hair irons over the past few years in CRITICAL DETAIL. Let us explain: If you are trying to comb your hair, would you use a comb with teeth as big as a whiteboard marker? We would never do that! It would mess-up the neighbouring hair strands badly by pushing on the hair around it. Likewise, would you use hair irons that have heads or tips as big as whiteboard markers? We think the effects would be far worse with the added heat they produce! You might cause neighbouring hair strands to CURL at the very roots if you are working near the scalp! Our new specially thermodynamically designed handles and shell structure allows it to be nearly TWICE AS SLIM than many hair irons on the market, allowing you to straighten your hair with near surgical precision, while leaving your neighbouring hair strands standing straight and firm they way they should be!

   

The importance of infrared and negative ions
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
According to various manufacturers, it is said that negative ions close the cuticle layer to create a smooth, silky hair surface and seal in the hair’s natural moisture, providing shine, colour and moisture protection for the hair shaft. The manufacturers have also said that negative ions help eliminate static electricity on the hair surface so the hair is left silky and frizz-free; and that the certain wavelengths of infrared heat created by this iron penetrate the hair better than standard heat (also a form of infrared radiation). This is said to heat hair gently from within by creating a different type of heat [IR wavelength] that doesn’t heat the hair as much as traditional irons. Instead, more heat is delivered directly to the hair shaft so the hair is suppler and can be worked quickly and easily. Since less heat is delivered to the surface, it is said that hair is less likely to get damaged. The 3 elemental combination should provide the ultimate in infrared and negative ion sources, while also eliminating static electricity on the hair surface so hair is left silky and frizz-free.

Our opinion about its features
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
We are usually sceptical of new technologies like this, but although the various manufacturer's claims of tourmaline, ceramic and titanium based negative ions and special infrared seem highly exaggerated, we assure you that we have used it and it does its job very well regardless. We don't know if it is good because of the tourmaline, titanium, or general design; but we like it for its fast heat up time and for all the intuitive and intelligent design concepts. It is just so much better to use than most of the other hair irons we have had before. The design itself is an instant improvement over other hair irons. This hair iron incorporates the best of many known technologies in one superior device.
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Other hair straighteners usually do not quote heat up speeds for reasons due to possible variances in local temperatures and power supplies. However, we can give you a reasonable estimate that the iron will take about 20 seconds to heat up from a chilly 17 degrees Celsius in winter to a reasonable workable temperature. If you are somewhere cold, or have heavy loads in your power supply, it may take slightly longer. As for the suspended plates, like a car's suspension, they do 'float', but are not very flimsy or soft as they may end up curling your hair otherwise. We like the floating plates because unlike solid plates from other straighteners we use, they don't warp due to uneven heat expansion when the iron is on. Plates on most irons seem straight and flat at first, but when you turn some of them on, their plates or handles start to 'warp', resulting in uneven pressure which may pluck out your hair - so beware of this fact if you choose not to buy this wonderful device.
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
Some irons use ceramic handles (those that have the furry/paper texture look) which tend to be more heat resistant, but are also slippery. This device uses a special heat resistant plastic with a gloss coating that permits maximum surface grip with your hands unlike other ceramic handle irons (they don't have a gloss surface and lets air get between your hands which reduces grip). Other irons may use rubberised handles, but those are nasty because when we tried those, hair gets caught between the hand and the rubber handles which results in hair getting pulled out very often which is a Very Nasty experience. You won't get that with this iron as the gloss surface allows grip remains while the hair flows smoothly over the handles.

This iron rivals major brands like GHD and in quality and performance. Out staff have owned 6 hair straighteners from various brands in the past (including GHD). This model had the best results for the price by far, and its pretty obvious why as it's good value for money.

 

How do you use it?
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]

Safety comes first!
Full safety instructions are in the user manual. Please read and understand the user manual carefully in its entirety before using this device. If you do not receive a user manual with the device, contact us to obtain one before using the device. If the person using this device has not read and does not understand the user manual, they must not be allowed to use this device.

This hair iron is relatively water resistant for your own safety, but it is not water proof. Although human hair has some level of moisture in them naturally, you must avoid letting this device come into contact with any liquids and you should take all necessary steps to ensure that liquids do not enter the device. Do not use the hair iron if your fingers and hands are wet or if you are standing on water or wet surfaces as a closed circuit may form through the water, causing electrocution. As with all electrical appliances, contact a certified electrician if you have any doubts. Also prevent people who are not aware of its function from gaining access to this device. If you are unable to disconnect the device safely due to electrocution hazards or if there is an emergency, consider switching off the master power supply to the premises or building before disconnecting the device (by the circuit breaker or power board if it is safe to do so).

All irons are also a burn hazard, and are not suitable for use by children and people who are not physically or mentally capable of using this device safely. Take appropriate pre-cautions and be aware of any fumes that may result from the evaporation of chemicals present on your hair (from shampoos, conditioners, creams, colours etc), and do not breathe in any such fumes as they may be toxic when heated at high temperatures; always ensure appropriate ventilation as necessary.

Brief overview of basic operating instructions:
Full instructions are in the user manual. Basically, you plug the iron into a 220-240V AC power socket and turn it on by pressing the big circular (O) button on the hair iron for about 1 second. The hair iron will turn on and start to heat up immediately. To set the desired temperature, press the big circular (O) button and the hair iron will switch to the next available temperature. Pressing the (O) button cycles between [ON], [220°C], [200°C], [180°C], [160°C], [OFF] modes.

To commence hair straightening, gently sandwich / clasp a couple of strands (approximately 50 or so strands) between the hair straightener plates and gently move the hair iron down in a straight motion away from your scalp. This will cause the hair to flow through the gap between the hair iron plates, and exit the other side with a more straightened structure.

As stated earlier, pressing the (O) button cycles between [ON], [220°C], [200°C], [180°C], [160°C], [OFF] modes, so to turn it off, press the (O) button to cycle to the off mode. The hair iron is off when the LEDs are no longer lighted. You should unplug the hair iron from the socket after use to prevent power surges from damaging the device.

Special Usage Notes:
- It is important to reduce the pressure accordingly as the number of hair strands between the plates decreases. For example, as you near the tip at the end of the hair follicles, it helps to release some pressure on the hair strands. As fewer hair strands may be left as you near the last 1-2cm at the tips, the combined pressure builds up and presses on the last few strands of hair remaining, which may cause them to be pulled out accidentally if your not careful.

- The hair usually comes out through the hair straightener in the same directional plane as the hair straightener. So if you turn the hair straightener upwards on its axis, you might end up curling your hair (slightly, as the flat plates usually prevent this).
[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
- If your hair is wavy, you should take extra care to comb the hair neatly so the hair strands don't significantly overlap each other. Keeping it slightly moist can help, or you can also use a hair straightener cream that is certified safe for use with hair irons. Then just put that section of wavy hair between the iron plates, close/press the iron plates together gently and run the iron through the hair in one straight slow motion (without 'patting' or releasing the iron).

- Using a comb to guide the hair through the iron, or combing the hair before hand also helps create an even result. To do this, use the comb to grab a section of hair at the roots, move it forward a bit to make room for the hair iron, then clasp that portion of hair with the iron, and let the iron follow directly behind the comb as you run both through the hair to the tips (The comb feeds hair into the iron evenly between the plates). This is good for straightening ultra frizzy or very wavy zigzagged hair styles)

- Put the hair iron on a non-flammable heat resistant surface that won't burn or melt or release toxic fumes at under 250 degrees Celsius.

- We recommend you don't exceed the 180 degree setting on a hot day, just to be on the safe side. This device comes with a built in thermal safety fuse designed to 'permanently' shut off the device after a critical temperature is reached (eg; in case of thermostat failure). It is highly unlikely that the iron will ever reach this critical temperature in any normal use, but if this fuse shuts off the device, it is a permanent disconnection to protect you in case of an internal circuitry meltdown, and you will not be able to turn on the device again for your own safety. As such we don't recommend you let this hair iron be exposed to any situation where it cannot cool down properly, eg; suddenly covering it with or exposing it to fire as it will void warranty.

- Please note that our listing advertisment contains new updated information that may not be stated in the printed user manual that comes with this device.

We wish you lots of styling fun, enjoyment and wonderful results when using this hair straightener. For more tips and tricks, an internet search (Google / Bing / YouTube) will usually provide you with many various techniques and tricks to use, including a range of safe hair straightener add-on's, oils and accessories; but please beware there may be fake / dangerous products / information on the internet - you use them at your own risk and discretion.

It is EXTREMELY important that you put the right identification as a reference with your payment. Please put your identification with your payment eg: enter it in the "reference box" when paying via internet banking, or write it on a piece of paper and send it with your cheque or money order. If you don't do this, we cannot match your payment with your order, resulting in long delays. PayPal should automatically do this unless you use the 'send money' option.

Identification should be your Username or the Item number ; (especially the last 6 digits). Please do not put anything else.

If you want to pay by bank deposit, which only allows numbers as reference, please ask the bank teller to put the last 6 digits of the item number as reference so it "appears on our statement". (Bank tellers often mess this part up.) If they cannot do that, you must send us an email with your "Username" and the "branch BSB code" of the branch where you deposited your payment.

(If you are paying for a multiple item purchase, simply put your Username or any one of the item numbers as identification if you cannot fit all of them in.)

Payment deadlines can be reasonably extended upon request to a maximum of 28 days. If payment is not received after 14 days, we have the right to cancel the transaction, re-list the item for sale, sell it to another person, return you your payment (excluding costs) if it is received later, file a dispute, and or utilize a debt collection agency to collect any amount you owe.

Warranty

[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]
This item comes with 2 months limited warranty from date of delivery.
(You can purchase extended warranty for this item anytime before your warranty expires; do contact us if you are interested in doing so).

Damage and or problems caused by the misuse, abuse, negligent handling of the device from its original purpose, attempts at repair, dropping or extreme wear are not covered by this warranty. Deterioration, loss, injury or damage occasioned by, or as a result of the misuse or improper storage, intentional or accidental are also not covered under this warranty. Warranty does not cover any apparent defects or lack of functionality or performance that has already been noticed by our staff and stated in the listing. We reserve the right to replace or repair the appliance within the warranty period. Shipping fees are not refundable. Warranty does not cover the Free travel adapter included in the auction for international buyers. If you have problems with the Free travel adapter, ask a licensed technician to service it for you (usually as simple as bending a few pins inside to improve contact). Warranty does not cover any paintwork defect after 7 days from the date of delivery due to the wide range of corrosive chemicals that might be used with the iron that is not in our control. We recommend you choose the black colour version if you will be using the hair iron frequently with salon chemicals as the underlying colour is black by default. Any slightly worn down paintwork does not significantly affect the electrical operation of this device.

We prefer to send your order to you new and unopened, so we do not test the item prior to sending it to you unless you request it. Despite our efforts to ensure the manufacturer produces products that are fault free at the time of purchase, product faults may unknowingly occur. Therefore, at your request, we can test your item prior to shipment to ensure it is working well. This will involve opening / cutting the manufacturer's sealed packaging. Unless you authorise us to test it beforehand, we cannot guarantee your product will arrive operational or as advertised. Please allow for an additional 24 hours delay for such tests.

Officially, In addition to any warranty provided, to give you peace of mind, we also provide an extra personal guarantee that all of our products will work as advertised on arrival. This is our non dead upon arrival warranty, and is useful if your item doesn't come with warranty. Our personal warranty does NOT cover problems directly caused by physical damage in transit. To be eligible for our personal Non-Dead on arrival warranty, you must test the item and inform us if there is a problem within 3 days of receiving the item. You should then mail it back to us within 7 days of receiving the item, and include everything we sent you; such the packaging and all parts and accessories, in order to be eligible for a Full 100% Refund (excluding shipping). If you do not do this, we are not obliged to entertain any refund requests. However, you are still entitled to the original warranty service if it is available for your item.

We are not responsible for items getting damaged or lost during transit in any way whatsoever. You must purchase insurance if you require financial protection against damage or loss in transit. You must purchase additional insulation protection if you require additional protection against possible physical damage such as from shock or rough handling during shipment. If it does get lost or damaged, you will be able to arrange insurance compensation with the postal service or by using the warranty provided by item's manufacturer.

Device failure can be caused by many reasons, and it is extremely difficult to decide who will be held accountable, and sometimes neither buyer nor seller is at fault as items can get damaged in transit through the postal service or through other unexpected non physical circumstances (eg; failure due to electromagentic radiation / Excessive high or low temperatures while in transport / security xray scans etc..) Therefore, if insurance compensation cannot be arranged from the postal service, both seller and buyer agree to share the shipping obligations for getting an item replaced. If an item is damaged and its warranty is not void or expired, the buyer agrees to pay all shipping fees to return the item to us. Likewise, and we will also pay all shipping fees necessary to send the item back to the place the buyer sent it from. If you do not agree to this, we recommend you select and purchase shipping insurance and additional protective insulation.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

[Text & Images Contain Registered Copyrighted Material of Internetional Business And Logistics and its owner(s)]

Q: Can you straighten your hair with this product when the hair is still wet, or does it need to be dry to be straightened?
A: Hair usually has some level of moisture in it constantly, such as your sweat or from wet hair after showers. Hair usually needs to be dry to be straightened, as wet hair usually causes hair to curl or frizz again after it dries completely. We have used this hair iron to dry and straighten damp hair successfully with no problems, but you are not supposed to let liquids enter this device as you will risk potential electrocution (do not use it with dripping wet hair, as it also poses an additional burn hazard due to hot steam being emitted upon water contact). Read the user manual for the full safety guidelines.

Q: Is the effect permanent or temporary?
A: The length of the straightening effect generally depends on 2 things. If you use the straightener by itself without permanent straightening chemicals, the hair usually stays straight like a t-shirt after ironing unless it gets crushed or crumpled or exposed to moisture or other substances which may cause it to frizz, curl or become wavy. Using certain chemicals with the hair straightener reduces the effects of moisture on the hair, while other chemicals 'lock' in the after effect of a hair straightener by permanently realigning the molecules in the hair. There are various hair products and oils out there designed to work with hair straightening irons to increase the straightening duration.

Q: Does this product need to be refilled? Like once you have used the straightener a certain number of times, do you need to buy any oil or something for the straightener to work efficiently?
A: No, it doesn't need refilling. It gets energy from the mains power socket. It is not a battery or gas operated model. Just clean the plates when it is dirty using a soft clean damp cloth when it has cooled down. The plates should last quite a long time.

Q: Can i use this product overseas?
A: Yes, if the power supply is 220 V to 240 V AC, you can use this device with the aid of a travel adapter available in many hardware stores or at the airport (or the one included with your order, if you are entitled one at the time of purchase). This device does not work with 100-127V AC power grids, so you will need to use a transformer to convert the power supply to 220-240V AC.

Q: What is the proportion of titanium tourmaline and ceramic on the titanium plates?
A: We don't know the exact percentage, but the top most layer is densely coated with ceramic, titanium and tourmaline such that it will last many years of normal use before wearing off.

Q: Can i use the device to curl the hair, and not only smoothen/straighten it?
A: Yes. The curled edges at the tip of the plates will curl the hair if you run the hair through the iron at a 90 degree angle to how you would normally expect use it. This allows the hair to run over the curled edges of the plates, resulting in a curl. The curling ability of the straightening iron is improved by wrapping the hair around the special heat ventilation pores of the iron. We estimate a 90 degree curl is the maximum achievable..
