Pros & Cons of Using an Ionic Hair Brush

Many women are choosing to buy an ionic hair brush instead of its regular counterpart. In fact, some reputed brands such as Fuller also have a wide range of ionic brushes for men.

As the name suggests, ionic hairbrush emits both negative and positive ions. Due to an imbalance between positive and negative ions, your hair tends to lose their sheen and get frizzy. Further, towel-drying, brushing, styling and coloring strip your hair of negative ions. So, too many positive ions in your hair make your hair repel each other, hence giving way to issues such as split ends, frizz, and flyaways. With the help of an ionic hair brush, this ionic imbalance can be restored as the heat released by these hair-brushes adds the required amount of negative ions back to your hair. Thus, it makes your hair manageable, lustrous and soft.

Closes off broken hair cuticles: It is a widely known fact that once we start getting split ends, the only remedy left is to get your hair trimmed at regular intervals. This really affects the growth of your hair and many people, especially women have to say goodbye to their dream of long, glossy and healthy locks. An ionic hair brush turns out to be a boon in such cases as the negative ions seals and smoothes split ends.

Locks in Moisture:  Worried because of dry and brittle hair? Use ionic hair brushes as these help the moisture penetrate deeper into the hair and locks it further to hair strands. This helps make your hair look shiny and well-managed.

Hair dries faster: No need to spend additional money to buy blow-dryers. Ionic hair brushes not only dry your hair faster as compared to blow-dryers but also, keep away all the roughness that you may feel after your hair’s daily exposure to the heat emitted by the latter.  

Zero to minimal damage due to heat: Thanks to the advanced ionic technology, these brushes speed up the process of drying your hair, and also minimize the risk of burning your hair or scalp.

Quick Styling: Depending upon the type of your hair and size of an ionic hair brush, you can style your hair in a number of ways using these brushes. For e.g.- A ¾ inch brush create small curls or waves, 1-inch brush creates medium waves while 1 ½ brush creates large waves. Ask the seller or your stylist to help you choose the right ionic hair brush.
