Shea Butter vs Cocoa Butter
Do you know the difference between Shea Butter vs Cocoa Butter? Both natural moisturizers that melt at body temperature, shea butter, and cocoa butter are excellent multipurpose treatments for the skin. We hope this...
Braun is a company primarily known for its wide range of grooming products for both men and women. This German-based company is also the maker of the Braun Satin Hair 7 Iontec Hair Brush.
In 2010, the Braun Satin Hair 7 Iontec Hair Brush was voted Product of the Year by the Consumer Survey of Product Innovation both in Germany and the Netherlands. It is designed to protect the hair while adding instant smoothness and shine to each strand.
This product is the first of Braun’s non-heat related styling tools to use Iontec technology. Ions are neutral atoms that can take on either a positive or negative charge depending on its environment. Hair generates its own charge of positive atoms on the surface of each individual hair strand causing the strands to repel each other producing static.
Because ions are always trying to get back to a neutral state, they interact with the surface of the hair absorbing the positive charge and keeping the hairs from repelling each other.
Braun’s patented Iontec technology combined with other uniquely designed features of the hair brush work together to deliver the maximum benefits of ion technology to the hair. The ions are released via an active ion jet, one of the key features of this hair brush. When activated, this built-in electrical jet system instantly distributes millions of ions.
The negatively charged ions create a cloud that surrounds the hair and works constantly to reduce static build up and fly aways. The active jet is controlled by an on/off switch that has a locking function to reduce the risk of the brush switching on accidentally while carrying it.
In addition to the active jet system, the creators of the Braun Satin Hair 7 Iontec Hair Brush also incorporated seamless brush technology into its design. Its smooth bristles are created to reduce damage to the cuticles of the hair during brushing. This lightweight, portable brush is also equipped with a soft, removable cushion pad that prevents the snagging and pulling of the hair.
This is the one thing that I have to hide from my girls. We LOVE this brush and use it multiple times daily. Although the price tag is a little hefty at $63, this is a case where technology really pays off. My hair is shiny and looks amazing every time I use this brush.
