The InStyler on African American or Ethnic Hair

Over the past few months, we have been getting a lot of questions about how well the InStyler will work on African American, Mixed Race or Ethnic hair.

In short - the InStyler works SPECTACULARLY well on this type of hair!

During the development of the InStyler, all types of hair were tested to see how they would react to the totally new "rotating hot iron" design of the InStyler.  Thin, fine, coarse, straight, flat, curly... all types of hair.

At one point, we brought in a young model named Kima.  Kima's hair was very coarse, thick, and curly - and was not chemically-treated.  We thought this type of hair would prove to be a challenge for the InStyler.  We quickly found that not only did the InStyler go through Kima's hair with ease, but the results were simply astonishing... even to the inventors of the InStyler!

Of course, relaxed hair will work well with the InStyler, but as our test with Kima showed us, so will totally natural hair. 

So, we'd like to hear from you!  Drop us a line and let us know how well your hair works with the InStyler!

InStyler VS Flat Irons

The InStyler can create any type of style, from full-bodied waves and curls, to smooth and straight as you want it!  All with tremendous luster and shine!  Want to know how the InStyler stacks up to your old-school flat iron?  Check this out...

FLAT:  Flat irons produce “flat” unnatural looking results.
INSTYLER:  InStyler can create a perfect curl.

FLAT: Flat irons produce at best somewhat square, semi-curls, even in the hands of a skilled user.
INSTYLER:  Instyler can create everything from a true, tight flip to a loose "Farrah" type of style due to the roundness of the heated rotating cylinder and varying tension and how long you use it on a section.

FLAT: Flat irons produces flat flips, usually with unsightly flat blade marks.
INSTYLER:  InStyler can create a short spiky look that appears more natural, because of rounding off the tips of the hair with the InStyler’s heated rotating cylinder.

FLAT:  Flat irons produce “straight up” spikes that are flat, harsh and unnatural looking.
INSTYLER:  InStyler can create natural looking crown height and really seal it for the duration with the magic of “overdirection”  CLICK HERE for a video on the "overdirecting" technique with the InStyler.

Using Your InStyler on Fine or Thin Hair

We get a lot of questions asking if the InStyler will deliver volume and fullness to fine, limp or thin hair.

Put simply - YES!!!

The key to getting amazing fullness, lift and volume with your InStyler is an easy technique called "overdirection!"

Overdirection at the root is the single most important technique to create body and style for fine, limp or thin hair (and even short hair), since this tends to "set" the section of the hair that gives it lift off the scalp.  Overdirection can go a long way to producing good results, even if the section of hair is not as thick as it should be in the InStyler.  You can start with a thinner section of hair to see how it works for you, then add more hair to make a "thicker" section to get better results.

Thin hair is also greatly helped by using the Firm-Up Spray to further set the body and style created with the InStyler.
