Frequently asked questions

View all
What is the best hair straightener for everyday use?

The Muk Hair Straightener Original Style Stick or Ghd Chronos are the best choice for everyday use. They heat quickly, glide easily, and work well on all hair types. Both deliver smooth, long-lasting results with minimal effort.

Are wide-plate straighteners better for thick hair?

Yes, wide plates cover more hair in each pass, making styling quicker. They’re ideal for long, thick, or curly hair types. The ghd Max and Cloud Nine Wide Iron are popular wide-plate options.

Can I curl my hair with a straightener?

Yes, most hair straighteners can create curls or waves. Twist the straightener 180 degrees and glide through sections for soft, flowing curls. Finish with hairspray to hold the style.

What’s the difference between a flat iron and a straightener?

They’re essentially the same tool, both used for straightening hair. The term “flat iron” is more common in the US, while “hair straightener” is preferred in NZ. Both can be used to straighten or curl hair.

How do I protect my hair when using a straightener?

Always use a heat protectant spray before styling. Keep the temperature around 185°C to prevent heat damage. Regular conditioning treatments help maintain shine and health.

What’s the best hair straightener for curly hair?

For curly or coarse hair, choose a straightener with wide plates or high heat settings. Models like the ghd Max or Muk Hair Straightener Wide Plate Style Stick work well for taming curls. Use small sections for smoother results.

How do I clean my hair straightener?

Unplug and let it cool completely before cleaning. Wipe the plates with a damp cloth or alcohol wipe to remove residue. Cleaning once a week helps maintain performance.

Are expensive straighteners worth it?

Yes, premium hair straighteners offer even heat distribution, smoother plates, and longer life. They also protect hair better thanks to smart temperature control. Over time, they give healthier, shinier hair.

Can I use a straightener on wet hair?

No, always dry your hair completely before straightening. Using a flat iron on wet hair can cause serious damage. Some Dyson and Silver Bullet models are designed for damp styling but not soaking wet hair.

What temperature should I use on fine hair?

Keep the temperature between 150°C and 170°C for fine or fragile hair. Muk and Cloud Nine offer adjustable temperatures that reduces the risk of damage while still providing a smooth finish. Use light pressure when styling.

How long should a good straightener last?

A high-quality hair straightener is built to stand the test of time. With proper care - keeping the plates clean, avoiding tightly wrapping the cord, and buying through an official NZ retailer - you can enjoy reliable performance for many years. Each tool is durable, reliable, and covered by a warranty for added peace of mind.
