Blow dryer or hair iron?

Your hair does not have to be thick to use a straightning iron. Blowdrying or ironing hair can cause damage equally depending on what products you use for protection in your hair or the frequency that you use it and the present condition of your hair. The blowdryer's function is to straighten hair and of course dry it, while the iron diminishes the volume of hair and seals the cuticle of your hair. The iron is usually used after blowdrying if you desire a sleek straight look or want to diminish volume if you have a lot of hair or it is coarse. I usually use it after I blowdry to give a polished look (I'm a hairstylist). In my case I have straight hair and sometimes if I want to lessen damage and have time, I wash my hair let it air-dry and iron it out and it looks awesome! It's also very important to use heat protection products, that protect your hair from the damage that electric styling tools can create (blowers, irons and curling irons). I hope this helps!

your hair does not have to be thick to use a flat iron.

A flat iron works better then a blow dry to make hair straight.

they both are really really bad for your hair.

if you blow dry your hair try using the cool shot button.

I use my flat iron more. My hair gets straight with a blow dryer but not very straight. Its wavy and after time it gets really wavy.

Blow dryer or hair iron?

well you can't use a hair straightener if your hair is wet. since you have to dry it first, i used them about the same amount.

you can try a hair iron. if you want more volume then try layers or teasing at your crown.

Blow dryer or hair iron?

I use both because the blow dryer gives great body and the flat iron straightens the frizzes,(I prefer a ceramic flat iron!) As for which one does the most damage, I would have to say both will damage your hair if you don't use them right. And your hair doesn't have to be thick!

Good Luck!!

Blow dryer or hair iron?

It depends how curly your hair is! Mine is super curly so I have to blow dry it first and then iron it. But flat irons straighten better that blow dryers, for sure! I don't like blow dryers too much because you cannot regulate the temperature. A little too long and your hair gets scorched from the heat. A good ceramic or tourmaline flat iron with temperature control will allow you to set the heat to your hair type. Make sure you only use it on dry hair though, and with a good conditioner and heat protectant. And you shouldn't use a hot tool more than 3 times a week.
