The straightener, which has repeatedly helped out over the years of use, can immediately turn into the worst enemy. The thing is that the plates of the device tend to deteriorate over time.
Hairstylist Fabio Scalia advises to pay attention to scratches formed on them due to wear. They will be the signal that your curls are in danger.
However, this is not the only sign that indicates that the straightener is actively damaging the hair.
"If the light flashes frequently during use, your iron has stopped holding heat and will soon fail," warns Fabio Scalia.
In addition, pay attention to how the straightener copes with its functions during use. If you find that you run the same strand of hair through the device several times without success, then this is a sure sign that it is no longer working properly. As a result, you only damage it more without achieving straight, smooth hair.
Inspect the rectifier every couple of months to make sure it is in working order. If you find damage, but do not want to spend on a new one, then pay attention to the service that some brands provide for replacing plates.
