Tourmaline is a semi-precious stone. When heated, it is an excellent source of negative ions and infrared heat, which have an anti-frizz effect on hair, help maintain its natural moisture and repair it at a molecular level, sealing the cuticles and restoring the fibers. This material is used to line the inside of hairdryer tubes, straightener plates and curling iron tubes.
The benefits of tourmaline on hair:
Reduce Static Electricity: Tourmaline has the ability to reduce static electricity in hair, helping to keep hair smoother and less prone to frizz.
Cuticle Closing: Tourmaline can help seal hair cuticles, helping to keep moisture in and making hair shinier and silkier.
Rapid Heating: Hair tools that incorporate tourmaline tend to heat more quickly and evenly, providing consistent heat throughout use.
Negative Ion Emission: Tourmaline can generate negative ions when heated, helping to neutralize positive ions responsible for static electricity and promoting overall hair health.
Damage Reduction: Using tourmaline in styling devices can help reduce heat damage and improve the firmness and appearance of hair.
The end result is softer, shinier and silkier hair.
