Get Rid of Your Hairstyle Blues with a CHI Straight Iron

Did you know that you can do more than just straighten your hair with a CHI straight iron? Well, if you didn’t realize that, now you do! With a CHI straight iron, you can add versatility to your everyday look by creating beautiful curls, flips, dreadlocks, crimps or even spirals. Depending on your personal preferences, you can literally create thousands of different hairstyles with this fantastic hair tool.

A CHI straight iron features moist ceramic heat with ceramic plates and coils; the reason ceramic is predominantly used in this particular type of flat iron is simply because it maintains an even temperature at all times and produces negative ions. Negative ions prevent hot spots from developing in specific areas as well as seals the cuticles in your hair follicles.

If you actively color your hair, a CHI straight iron will lock in your hair color as well as retard the color from fading. Each flat iron is ergonomically designed and includes a ten foot electrical cord that is heavy duty.

Do you have problems straightening the back of your hair at times? Well, it seems that the Farouk Company that manufactures CHI straight irons has already considered that possibility as their entire stock of CHI straight irons have been designed with a 360 degree swivel connection that helps to prevent your hair from being entangled in the flat iron.

Is a CHI straight iron heavy? No, they are designed to be light in weight and will even fit in a standard curling iron station for easy access. Have you ever accidentally shut off your flat iron when you were using it because you hit the on/off button? You won’t have to worry about that happening as the on/off switch is conveniently located on the inside of every CHI straight iron.

How hot does a CHI straight iron get and how long does it take to heat it up to use? Well, all of the CHI straight irons use “flash heating” which allows the flat iron to completely heat up within six to ten seconds and heats up between 150 –180 degrees. Did I mention that you can save energy also? How is this possible? Well, with a CHI straight iron, you will only be using between 20-25 watts of electricity while it is plugged into the electrical outlet.

So, now that you are familiar with what a CHI straight iron does, let’s discuss exactly how you use one. I have compiled a few tips to help ensure that you get the best results as well as long life with your CHI straight iron:

First of all, the CHI straight iron has been designed with an IDCI plug. This plug is extra protection to help prevent electric shocks from occurring. If your CHI straight iron does not turn on when you move the switch to the on position, double check to make sure that the red reset button on the plug is depressed. In case there are any power outages or electrical interruptions, just be sure to reset the plug before attempting to use the tool again.

 Always clean your CHI straight iron after you use it! This alone will extend the life of the flat iron and ensure that you are getting the maximum performance for your hair. To clean the flat iron, you can use rubbing alcohol and clean soft cloth. Always wait ten minutes after you have turned off the flat iron and make sure it is unplugged before you start cleaning and avoid using abrasive cleansers as this may damage the heating surface.

Lastly, if the hinge mechanism becomes loose and the plates on your CHI straight iron fail to align properly, the hinge may need to be tightened. To fix this issue, remove the caps that are covering the hinge and tighten the screw inside the hinge until the plates on the flat iron align. Simply replace the hinge covers and return to normal usage.

As you can see by the information that I have provided in this hub, a CHI straight iron may be just what you need to take care of all of your hairstyle woes!
