The length of your hair significantly impacts the ideal temperature setting, as the heat from your straighteners is distributed differently depending on the strand length.
Long hair
Longer hair needs more attention to make sure the heat reaches all of it evenly and doesn’t cause damage. To keep long hair in the best condition, we recommend a styling temperature in the region of 150°C to 190°C.
Perfect styling temperatures for long hair
- Long straight hair typically fares well between 150°C and 170°C.
- Wavy long hair benefits from temperatures between 160°C and 180°C.
- Long curly hair requires a slightly higher range of 170°C to 190°C to tame its texture.
