Question: What Chi hair straightener is best for my limp fine hair? What does ergonomic design and ionic technology mean when it concerns the Chi hair straightener?

These crystals have the capacity to send positive and negative ions throughout the hair which leave the hair soft and silky and then some. Read my article on tourmaline for more info. The chi hair straightener claims to use ergonomic design in its product description. Ergonomic design simply means, designing an object for human use. The science is applied to the equipment or tool as to improve productivity and efficiency in other words make it user friendly.

Which one is best?

Fine limp hair is tuff to style because the density of each strand is minimal and lends it self to breakage. Lotions and creams can weigh the hair down defeating the purpose and heat appliances can easily burn the hair. The Chi hair straightener is a versatile instrument. Farouk systems has designed many straighteners and they are all good. If your hair is long, buy the two inch straightener, if it’s shorter than six inches, buy the one inch. Either way you will need to control the temperature: keep it set on the lowest setting because these flat irons get really hot and as you know, fine thin hair doesn’t need any more stress.
