1 1/4 Inch Hair Flat Iron Review
Smooth sleek hair is a very popular look and thanks to 1 1/4" inch flat irons this style is very easy for the average woman to achieve. There are many different flat iron plate sizes, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. With so many different sized hair irons, it is important to understand that the texture and length of hair as well as your desired look depends greatly on the plate size you choose.
If you have short hair you should select a 3/8" through 1" straightening iron. Longer hair demands a larger plate size such as a 1 1/2" to 2 1/4" iron. One of my favorite sizes is the 1 1/4" mainly because of it's versatility. It allows you to style almost any length hair and achieve any look you want. It is small enough, enabling you to create tons of volume close to your roots and is large enough to effectively straighten a full head of hair in a reasonable amount of time. I've listed a few of the best low cost professional hair irons in the market.
- HAI Convertable Ceramic Flat Iron - 1 1/4": This unique iron creates countless styles including straight, curly or flipped on all hair types. It features nano tourmaline infused ceramic plates, which seals the cuticle and locks in moisture with negative ions and far infrared rays. This will leave your hair healthy, shiny and beautiful!
- BaByliss Pro Nano Titanium Ceramic Flat Iron - 1 1/4": This iron combines nano technology with the high heat conductivity of titanium and the heat-resistant properties of ryton to deliver state of the art performance with less stress and damage to the hair.
Another styling benefit of a 1 1/4 inch straightening iron is that it
can also be used it to add soft curls, waves or flips. For this type of
thermal styling make sure to purchase a flat iron with curved plate
edges and solid ceramic plates. This will help prevent snagging and
creases in the hair. I only recommend professional grade flat irons,
because they feature all of the most sophisticated technologies and
quality components. Better made thermal tools ensure exceptional
styling result, faster heat up, consistent temperatures, multiple heat
settings, and solid ceramic plates which prevent hot spots, the leading
cause of breakage and thermal damage!
