Straightener/Flat Iron

A straightener, also known as a flat iron, is an electrical styling tool used to temporarily smooth and straighten curly or wavy hair using controlled heat. It works by sandwiching sections of hair between two heated plates, which break the natural hydrogen bonds in the hair structure, allowing it to be reshaped. Modern flat irons often use ceramic or titanium plates and include adjustable temperature settings to provide effective straightening while minimizing heat damage.
