The
Benefits of Tourmaline in Hair
Straighteners
One of the
great things about hair products
is that they constantly evolve
and the Sedu hair iron is a great
example of a hair product
benefiting from Tourmaline.
In fact
Tourmaline has been used for many
years in water filters and it\'s
only been in recent years that
the benefits of Tourmaline could
be harnessed for the hair
industry. This article was
written to try and explain
exactly what Tourmaline is and
why it\'s used on hair
straighteners.
Firstly,
Tourmaline is a precious stone,
whose colors include blue, green,
pink, red, yellow, brown, black,
bi-colored, tri-colored, and
colorless. Tourmaline may be
found in Brazil, Russia, Burma,
Afghanistan, Malagasy Republic,
Maine, California.
According
to Egyptian legend the beautiful
colors are the result of the
Tourmaline travelling along a
rainbow from the centre of the
Earth up towards the sun.
And on its
way up it collected all the
colours of the rainbow. This is
why nowadays it is also called
the "Rainbow gemstone”.
The name
"Tourmaline”
is derived from the Singhalese
expression "tura mali”,
which translates as "stone of
mixed colours.” Ooohhh, now
I\'m intrigued.

The
very name already refers
to the unique spectrum
of colours displayed by
this gemstone and no
Tourmaline stone
resembles another one.
Tourmaline
shows many faces and is
thus excellently suited
to match all moods and
tempers.
It
does not come as a
surprise, then, that
ever since ancient days
it has been attributed
with magical
powers.

Tourmaline
is supposed to be an especially
powerful influence on love and
friendship, lending them
permanence and stability. I think
it is about time I gave a Sedu
Tourmaline hair straightener to
my boyfriend!
Tourmaline
has been used for sometime now in
specialist water filters but only
recently has it\'s benefits been
used in the hair industry.
Why
is Tourmaline used on hair
straighteners?
It\'s all
very well and good that
Tourmaline is a beautiful
gemstone but I\'m sure I\'ve
never seen any sparkling gems on
my Sedu tourmaline hair
straightener so why is it used.
I\'m going to get a bit technical
here: Tourmaline plates on your
straightener generate negative
ions and far infrared (FIR) rays.
The FIR
helps to lock in moisture in your
hair and also remove static which
causes your hair to Frizz.
Due to the
concentration of these negative
ions hair-straightening time is
cut in half and your hair is left
feeling much softer and shinier.
Main
benefits of Toumaline
- Micro-porous
technology (locks in moisture)
- Ion
field technology (seals in
natural oils)
- Tourmaline
Negative ion technology
(removes static)
- Tourmaline
Infrared heat for deep, long
lasting straightness
It just
goes to show that even precious
stones have many more
applications than sitting on your
finger or around your neck.
Although I think I still prefer a
big diamond ring any
day.
