My Flat-Iron Revelation

By Abi Mogge, Staff Writer

I’ve been going for the ‘beachy’ look my whole life, even before it was a look.  I’m basically just super lazy when it comes to styling my hair and I hoped that I could pull off the natural, effortless waves that graced the heads of surfer girls everywhere. In reality, my hair simply looked messy and frizzy. Recently, I had the chance to use a Crush 1” Flat-Iron and I’m never going back.  I’m a flat-iron convert.

This is a professional quality ceramic flat iron that uses ceramic tourmaline technology which provides negative ionic output to lock in moisture and eliminate static and frizz. Gentle far infrared heat penetrates the hair follicle to minimize heat damage, and a wide temperature range (140° – 450°) makes this iron versatile enough for all hair types. The edges of the ceramic plates are curved, making it easy to flip your ends or leave them straight.  It heats up really quickly, which is a huge plus for my crazy mornings.

I love how well this flat-iron works. My hair looks healthier and shinier after I use it, not to mention smooth and straight.  This has become the final step in styling my hair – even if I don’t want super straight hair, I can put this on a low heat setting and simply use it to smooth out frizz. I don’t like to overdo it with heat styling, but I haven’t experienced any noticeable heat damage while using this; I think it’s the high quality of the ceramic plates and infrared heat. As a girl who is reluctant to do more to her ‘do than wash n’ go, this little flat-iron has suddenly become an indispensable feature in my morning hair routine.  Crush 1” flat-irons (and Crush minis! Great for traveling) are available online at One Styling.
