In modern irons for straightening naughty hair and creating styling, working plates can be made of various materials. Among others, an anodized coating is applied to the surface of the heating plates of the hair straightener.

At its core, this is an additional treatment to which aluminum is subjected - anodic oxidation by the electrochemical method. Additional strength and resistance appear due to the formation of a protective oxide film on top. It is formed from the metal itself, can have a different shade for a decorative attractive appearance.

Advantages of additional processing of aluminum surface:

  • uniformity;
  • dullness;
  • obtaining protective properties;
  • decorativeness;
  • resistance to damage;
  • significant thickness of the anodized layer.

Note! This method is used to process various parts and is widely used in industry.

The ease of use of rectifiers must be combined
with respect to hair

Using styling foam or gel, it is possible to conduct ironing on strands without the danger that the components of the product will enter into a chemical reaction with the plates themselves. For thermal protection it is recommended to use special protective sprays, mousses and other means.

Additional processing of work planes allows to increase resistance to damage:

  • physically applied;
  • corrosion
  • related to the chemical effects of hair products.

While maintaining good thermal conductivity of the device, the necessary strength is added. The outer layer will not peel off and will not become worthless during operation.

The strands have a gentle effect. This type of processing of “corrugation” nozzles has effectively proven itself.

Note! In addition to hair straighteners, the anodized surface is found in curling irons and other devices.

Comparison of various types of coatings with anodized

Plates in straighteners for straightening curls are work surfaces that are heated and directly contact with the strands during the installation process. The material of the plates affects the service life, styling quality and the speed of creating a hairstyle, as well as the price of the device itself.

Ceramic

Ceramic coating

Currently ceramic plates ironing - the most popular option. The surface material is environmentally friendly, has a smooth surface, therefore, contributes to fast laying without damaging the strands. The price of such rectifiers is often not high. The specifics of operation include the instability of ceramics, including the ability to quickly form carbon deposits and the need for frequent cleaning.

Teflon

This option is preferred in cases where the hairstyle is created using styling tools. Teflon is notable for accumulating carbon deposits on its surface.The disadvantages include the roughness of the surface of the plates, which, unlike anodized, can negatively affect the strands, especially under the influence of high temperature.

Tourmaline

This coating has many advantages:

  • maintains water balance;
  • removes accumulated static voltage.

A feature of the tourmaline coating is the ability to release negative ions when heated, which have a beneficial effect on the hair structure. The price of ironing will usually be higher than with anodized. Useful to read: how choose the best tourmaline iron (rectifier).

Aluminum

A metal surface is not the best option. The metal dries the locks and spoils the structure of the hair shaft. If you purchased an iron with such plates, then it is advisable to use it no more than a couple of times a month. Anodized processing removes these limitations.

Other types of coatings

In addition to the anodized surface, the plates can be treated with a marble top layer, diamond or titanium. These are modern versions of rectifiers that allow you to create a spectacular styling with minimal negative impact on the strands themselves.

It is advisable to use the rectifier only on dry locks.
