A travel flat iron employs ceramic technology which distributes heat evenly across the whole surface of the iron in order to heat much more efficiently and reduce the occurrence of “hot spots” which can cause a great deal of damage to your hair.
Ceramic plates give off infrared heat which helps to preserve the moisture levels in the hair shaft, and resulting in less damage to the hair cuticle. Negative ions reduce the incidence of static electricity which results in your hair having a shiny and sleek appearance.
Flat irons also have negative ion technology which prevents the growth of bacteria and has an effect of your hair and scalp being much healthier. This technology breaks apart clusters of water molecules allowing them to penetrate the hair shaft which adds volume to your hair. Negative ions help to close the hair cuticle which also improves the appearance of the hair.
The Babyliss Straightener is lightweight and convenient at 1.65 pounds. It gives your hair more volume while keeping it moisturized. If you have frizzy or unmanageable hair, you can use this tool to leave your hair shiny and straight quickly. This iron features a built in ionic generator and recessed LED electronic controls for the temperature.
Many straighteners on the market today leave your hair flat and limp, but the Babyliss straightener adds volume as it straightens. It has performance of up to 40% faster than most straightening irons you can purchase. It features a slim easy to handle design which prevents hand fatigue. Some features include:

This iron emits a series of negative ions which allows for faster straightening while locking in the natural moisture of the hair. This is a great feature, because while you straighten your hair, you do not want to strip out the moisture and make it more frizzy and dry.
