Kinujo Sapphire Straight Pro Hair Iron

Like all things, beauty is a compromise: the more powerful the products and tools we use, the more downsides they have. Take hair irons, for example: put a hair iron made this year next to one made 10 years ago and its efficiency will make you wonder how people could style their hair with the older one. But all this efficiency takes its toll on your hair. Unless your hair iron is the Kinujo Sapphire Straight Pro, which massively reduces the potential to damage your hair. Thanks to its newly designed sapphire plate, the Kinujo Sapphire Straight Pro causes 50% less damage to the hair compared to the competition: with less frictional resistance (and therefore less cuticle damage) and with more control over temperature and moisture (you can control its temperature from 50 to 220°C [122-428°F] in 10°C increments), you get more even heat distribution in less time. In other words, increased efficiency with decreased wear and tear to the hair. And all in an ergonomic and stylish 283 x 29 x 39 mm (11.1 x 1.1 x 1.5") device!
