and smoke (or steam.. as i heard some people say) coming out of your hair/straightener, is that bad? no, i dont smell anything burning, but when i see the smoke/steam i get worried sometimes :/ and i know you guys might say turn down the temperature, but i'd rather leave it at 370.. because it gets the job done.

the steam escaping is actually the moisture and protective oils in your hair evaporating. it's a sign of frying your hair.
if you can, get a straightner that infuses some steam back in your hair. there's always going to be damage done to your hair regardless of what flat iron you use, but it is the better choice. |
