Purpose of the comb
Thin hair is often susceptible to the harmful effects of static electricity. This problem makes itself felt mainly in the winter season: a person wears a warm hat, puts on and takes off a woolen jacket or sweater over his head. In addition, constantly operating heating devices help reduce indoor air humidity.
Over time, this leads to an overall unhealthy appearance of hair, loss of shine and brittleness. The action of the comb is aimed at combating such consequences. This device is capable of producing the necessary negatively charged oxygen ions, which are distributed along the entire length of the strands and help neutralize static voltage.
In addition, the built-in ionizer provides an excellent disinfecting effect, improving the health of the scalp and hair follicles.
Operating principle
The appearance of the device makes it look like a massage brush. There is a small ionizer inside it. It is activated by a button located on the handle.The device can operate using batteries, a rechargeable battery, or be powered from the mains. The indicator will tell you when recharging is required.
The teeth of the comb are made using a special technology, which ensures smooth glide through the hair and preserves its structure. During operation of the device, which is lightweight and quiet, you can smell ozone.
Advantages and disadvantages of a hair ionizer
A comb with an ionic function has the following advantages compared to a regular one:
- the combing process helps close the hair scales, making the structure denser;
- regular use reduces drying time;
- daily use does not cause harm;
- the device retains moisture in the hair structure, preventing it from drying out;
- eliminates unpleasant odors.
However, there are also disadvantages. Regular use leads to a decrease in volume, and using the device on wet hair does not give any effect at all. There is also a risk of electric shock.
A Question of Choice
When deciding on a specific model, a number of factors should be taken into account. Firstly, the general condition of the scalp. Secondly, your own desire, i.e. desire for a certain effect. Based on user experience and manufacturer recommendations, it is worth highlighting several main criteria for the right choice:
- There is a direct relationship between the density of the hair structure and the power of the device. The higher the first one, the more powerful the comb should be.
- If used frequently, the best model will be one with a built-in power supply system. You can always carry it with you.
- Daily care requires flat brushes; complex styling is best done with a round-shaped device.
- Dismountable structures are preferable because they are easy to care for and maintain in proper condition.
Combs with an ionic function are considered a relatively new device. However, users already have a definite opinion about the manufacturers. The leading positions among reliable and easy-to-use devices are occupied by Braun devices. Fans of compact combs will like the models from the BaByliss company. Philips, Remington and Parlux are also popular.
