The Wigo Damp or Dry flat iron is one of the best on the market - especially in its price range. Many women like using these types flat iron as it avoids the need to first blow dry hair, which saves times and reduces heat damage to hair. However, many get frustrated with the results they achieve. Far from looking 'salon' perfect, hair can sometimes look frizzy, dry and far from smooth. Here are some tips to help you get that salon look.
What follows applies to any type of wet to dry flat iron - not just the Wigo 2" Damp or Dry ceramic iron. You can achieve the same results if you use a Corioliss or T3 Tourmaline Wet-to-Dry flat iron. All are fine tools and will give you that smooth, shiny, flat look if used correctly.
1. Many flat iron reviews will tell that that such and such model won't damage your hair. Well, let me tell you, all irons apply high temperature to your hair and high temperature damages hair, no matter how good or expensive the flat iron is. When using one, you must protect and repair your hair from heat damage. You can buy a cheap hair straightener but you should spend a little bit extra on shampoo and conditioner. Brands like Matrix Biolage For Therapy or GHD Nurture Shampoo cost a little bit more, but it's money well spent. They help protect hair from heat and help repair split ends.
2. After thoroughly washing your hair you should gently towel dry it. Apply a balm to help reduce friction and prevent split ends or hair breakages - Redken AntiSnap Leavin is an excellent product.
3. In order to get straight hair you need to use a straightening balm. Again, use a good quality balm or serum like AG Set It Straightening Balm, Kenra Straightening Serum or Frederic Fekkai Straight Away Straightening Balm.
4. This is optional; if you already have shiny hair then you can miss out this step. However, if your hair lacks a natural shine you should apply some sleek serum such as Matrix Sleek Look sealing serum. You should only apply it to the ends of your hair as the natural oils of the hair decrease further away from the scalp.
5. Now, down to business. Section your hair into three layers at the sides and four at the back and run the Wigo flat iron through each section. Start with the bottom layer and work your way up to the top. Run the iron slowly but steadily; don't stop on any one section of hair as you risk burning your hair in that spot. Straightening the back of your hair can be tricky. It may help to position a mirror at the back so you can see what you're doing.
6. Once done you should not apply any further oils, gels or what not as doing so will only make your hair greasy and will make it pick up dirt more quickly thereby shortening the length of time your hair will remain straight.
7. Remember, using an iron damages hair. If you use your iron a lot you should apply a deep conditioning treatment twice a week.
By following the above tips and with a little patience using your Wigo Damp or Dry flat iron will be easy and you should get that perfect, sleek, shiny salon look every time.
