Beauty has been desired by women throughout the ages. Beauty is the thing that attracts men. Beauty opens doors that are closed to the ‘non-beautiful’. Eve of the Old Testament was the beautiful temptress. Delilah and Cleopatra each used their beauty to wield power over men.

Concepts of beauty have evolved over time even though the desire to be pretty has remained the same as always. In the past, European women carried parasols whenever they went out side. These were not just a fashion accessory but had the very functional purpose of keeping the sun off the woman’s skin in order to preserve her youthful skin. White skin was the ideal; any hint of a tan was considered lower class and decidedly unbecoming. Women would pinch their cheeks in order to make them look rosy as was considered pretty at the time.

In the modern age, tanned skin is now thought to look healthy and pretty. Rather than avoid the sun, women court it enthusiastically in order to achieve the sun-kissed glow. Where there is no sun, women can still achieve the same effects with bottled tan lotions or they can bathe under a sunray lamp in a tanning booth for that all important requirement of the modern beauty regime.  Read more...

Broken, brittle and dry hair were just some of the side effects of the early hair straighteners. This could be the reason why in the’80s it was all about crimped hair, as this was less harmful. Straighteners didn’t come on the scene until the technology was good enough, in the’90s, and girls wouldn’t get burnt scalps after using their Mothers ironing board and iron to achieve the straight look.

The required style was shiny and styled hair. So to try and obtain this, hair would need several minutes between the hair straighteners before it became more manageable. But unfortunately, the hair would then become heat damaged, dry, brittle and unmanageable.

Thank goodness time and technology has moved on. Nowadays, although hair straighteners have a hefty price tag, it is because they have the technology that supposedly styles your hair without damaging it.

Ceramic heating elements are used in hair straighteners these days, making them much more less damaging to hair. For hair to get straight, the hydrogen bonds in the hair need to be broken. These are the bonds that make hair curly. The quicker these are broken the better as then less heat damage will happen. Ceramic can heat up really quicker and get to very high temperatures, making the time the straightener has to be in contact with the hair a lot less. Infra red and ionic technology that some brands have, means natural oils are sealed in the hair making it healthy and shiny.  Read more...
