If you have curly hair, you probably want to straighten it once in awhile. That seems to be the way it goes, women want what they don’t have which is why there are so many hair tools that have been invented to help us achieve that.

So what is tourmaline and how can it possibly benefit your hair? Well, tourmaline is a naturally occurring element that is an excellent source of negative ions. The abundance of negative ions that tourmaline emits actually work on your hair by penetrating the hair shaft and drying it from the inside in. That means that your hair doesn’t have to be exposed to the heat for nearly as long in order to straighten it. And as an added benefit, tourmaline closes the hair shaft of each hair which locks in the hairs natural moisture making it shiny and healthier than ever before.

By straightening your hair, you can actually make it look better than it ever has. The frizzies and dry damaged hairs will be gone, leaving you with shiny, glossy hair instead.

You must have heard a lot about what you ‘should’ do in order to have that long lustrous mane that is the dream of every woman or man. Here are five ‘no no’s’ if you wish to maintain the mane.
1.Do not be harsh with your hair: Treat your hair with respect. Vigorous brushing and careless handling cause irreparable harm to hair. Cruel curling irons and chemical based shampoos or tight braids will weaken and destroy the hair
2. Avoid the use of chemicals and toxins : Unnecessary exposure to curling tongs, change of colors, highlighting chemicals etc might look good temporarily but it causes irreparable damage to the roots and texture, which cannot be rectified.
3. Don’t use excessively hot water or heat : Hot water damages hair. Always use lukewarm water to shampoo hair. Exposure to the sun also makes the hair lusterless so wear a hat or carry an umbrella. Hot curling tongs are disastrous for the outer protective layer of hair.
4.Avoid fad diets and unknown supplements: What you eat reflects in your skin and you hair. Junk food with aerated drinks causes the hair to lose its shine and gloss. Do have at least 8 glasses of water to prevent the dehydrated look.
5. Smoking is injurious to hair: This should be the mandatory warning. Every cigarette you smoke not only harms the lungs but also the texture of the hair. Smoke prevents the flow of oxygen to the scalp. As a result the roots are undernourished and starved.
