Difference between straightening with a Hair-Dryer and a Straightener.

If you want sleek and shiny hair, that also happens to be super straight, there are a few options available. Some people find that blowing drying their hair with a round brush gives them the straight hair they want; while others find that using a straightener gives them the desired look.

But how do you know which one is the best one for straightening your hair?

Well, there is definitely a difference between the two. And, much like a good accessory, it’s good to know what you’re doing so you know you look your best.

 

Blow-Drying Your Hair for a Straightened Look:

Blow drying your hair using a professional hairdryer, while frequently running the brush of your choice through it preferably a round brush, is an exceptional way to straighten your strands and keep them smooth.

And also, blow-drying your hair gives your roots a little extra volume. This is great for those that have hair that sits heavy and tends to lay extra flat, especially after being straightened.

Blow drying your hair controls the formation of hydrogen bonds in each strand of hair as it dries. In other words, it makes holding your freshly dried hair’s shape a whole lot easier, which means your straightened hair will likely last longer. It’s also a good technique to apply to your hair before your jump into using a flat iron. Blow dryers are approved for everyday use, as they don’t do a whole lot of damage to your hair. You can even use your dryer’s cool setting for a blast of cool air that sets your style in place.

That said, drying your hair with a blow dryer is a strategy for making wet hair dry, and curly hair less curly. But, if you happen to have really curly hair, simply blow drying it is probably not going to cut it if your desired look is super sleek and straight hair.

 

Using a Straightener to Straighten the Hair:

On the other hand, straighteners or flat irons are specifically designed to turn most hair straight, regardless of its original state. This is highly appealing to those with super curly and hard to tame hair.

In the past, straighteners were made with cheap metal plates, which after prolonged use on your hair would become extremely damaging. However these days, flat irons are made with plates of tourmaline, ceramic, and titanium, all of which promote keeping the moisture in without burning your hair.

In addition, one of the great things about using a flat iron is that, much like a good blow out, if you lift your hair up slightly while pulling your hair through the iron, you can get some much-needed volume and make your hair look more bouncy and less flat.

That said, you should never attempt to use a flat iron on wet hair, even if you’re using a professional straightener. You should also avoid clamping down on one section of hair for too long and using the highest heat setting just because you can.

Flat ironing your hair smoothens the most stubborn natural curls, leaving stick-straight lengths that are going to catch a lot of eyeballs. It’s fair to say that nothing will make your hair straighter than a hair straightener. A good flat iron will smooth the kinkiest of locks, leaving only gleaming, elegant straightness.

 

So Which Works For You?

Blow-outs are great for straightening hair that is already rather straight naturally, as well as hair that has minimal waves. However, hair that is straightened by blow-drying is prone to unsetting itself in humid climates. Flat irons are perfect for straightening any head of hair, whether it’s slightly wavy or full of the most stubborn locking corkscrew curls. Flat ironed hair also tends to keep its shape through many types of weather.

In the end, both hair dryers and flat irons are good for straightening hair. However, if you’re looking for a true winner, we need to stand by a good old flat iron. It’s designed to straighten even the curliest of strands, protects your hair from excessive damage, and can achieve the sleek look you’re longing for in no time.

 

Happy Styling!
