Maintenance

(1) When you’re using the irons and blow dryers you still need to maintain them

(2) Keep them clean and free from rust and carbon

(3) To remove the dirt and grease wash the irons in a soap solution with a few drops of ammonia (you can use alcohol as it will do the same thing)

(4) Fine sandpaper or steel wool with a little oil, helps to remove rust and carbon and polishes the irons

(5) To get more movement out of the iron, oil the joints

Buying Styling Tools

(1) When you’re looking for an iron, get one with a temperature gauge

(2) You want to be able to adjust the heat depending on the condition of your hair

(3) Do your research

(4) Stick with ceramic or ionic

(5) Usually if the iron is gold it may be metal (unless it says otherwise)

FYI: YOU’LL DEFINITELY GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR

When in doubt ask your stylist…………

Safety
