We know how difficult it can be to get the results you are looking for out of a keratin treatment — but it doesn’t have to be! If you’re not getting the results you want, odds are, you’re not using the right tool. In keratin treatments, the flat iron and temperature are key in treatment performance.  We recommend considering 3 things when buying your next flat iron to guarantee excellent smoothing performance for daily styling and some serious seal for your keratin treatments!

1.) Titanium Plates: Titanium is the perfect plate material for keratin treatments. Why? Because of it’s stable heat conducting ability. With titanium plates, the heat gets evenly distributed across the entire plate and holds heat at an even, set temperature. This prevents “hot spots” and guarantees that you have flat ironed each section evenly with every pass.

2.) Variable Heat Temperature: Variable heat settings are key in maintaining your hair integrity, and also the perfect way to customize your keratin treatments when using brands like Global Keratin, who provide you with instructions to follow per hair type.

3.) Durable Outer Housing: We LOVE the Ryton material Babyliss uses for the exterior portion of their flat irons. This is EXTREMELY important for stylists or anyone who will be doing a keratin treatment, as they require you to work closely with the flat iron for a longer period of time. This housing makes the flat-iron’s extremely comfortable to grip without the concern of getting burned!
