Sedu
Hair Styles – Are they for real?
Hair Resources Official Review
By Perriann Rodriguez
As the editor for Hair Resources, I visit
many beauty and hair related websites. Over
the last year I have noticed a growing popularity
of the search term Sedu Hair Styles and
even more popularity of the Sedu Flat Irons.
So, I had to check out this growing trend
to see what Sedu Hair Styles are all about.
The original mission statement of the company
Sedu Beauty, established in 1991, is to
transform every Nonhairless female species
on the planet into a Seductive beauty, Sedu
for short. It turns out that they also have
many male admirers.
The flat irons by Sedu are rated the best
by consumers and are mentioned as being
preferred by top hair stylists around the
world. Okay, this has definitely got my
attention now.
I went to the company website, over at www.sedubeauty.com
and saw many pictures of before and after
using the Sedu Flat Iron. The after pictures
all showed silky smooth and noticeably shiny
straight hair, as opposed to the before
pictures that showed very curly, frizzy
or downright unmanageable looking hair.
I do have to admit that I was a little skeptical
after seeing the photos. I kept looking
on the website for the little disclaimer
that says ‘Results not typical….etc.’ that
you always find in weight loss advertisements.
But no such disclaimer can be found.
For review purposes, I ordered a 1-1/2 inch
Sedu Ionic Flat Iron from one of the authorized
sellers listed on the company website. The
package arrived late one afternoon, just
before I had to go pick up my daughters
from school. I had only about 10 minutes
to spare before I had to leave, but I was
really anxious to try out this flat iron.
Here is an account of what happened next.
My hair was freshly washed and dried, so
I just put a small amount of Biosilk Silk
Therapy that the company recommends you
use before flat ironing. My hair is very
thick and about shoulder length. I actually
have to clip up most of my hair and start
flat ironing from the bottom layer. With
my old flat iron, it usually takes a good
15 minutes to iron my hair, with not all
that great results.
Time Line:
3:10 p.m. I plug in the Sedu Ionic Flat
Iron; put it on the hottest temperature
3:10 p.m. and 25 seconds later. The green
light is blinking indicating that the iron
is ready to use. I start with the bottom
layer, gradually letting more hair down
until I have run the flat iron over all
my hair. With this iron you only have to
pass it one time over your hair. With my
old iron I had to run it thru several times
to get good results. P.S. You definitely
don’t want to touch your hair after running
the flat iron over it. It is VERY HOT.
3:18 p.m. I’m done!!!!
My hair looks absolutely awesome. It is
smooth and silky, just like in the pictures.
And, it actually stayed that way for almost
two whole days before I washed it again.
Several people asked me the first day and
the next day if I got my hair cut or just
went to the salon.
Important factors to consider when flat
ironing your hair on a regular or daily
basis is the wear and tear it will produce
on your hair, perhaps causing split ends
or even damaging your hair. If you visit
many hair related forums, damaged hair from
flat ironing is a frequent topic.
Dennis Huang, the brand manager for the
Sedu line, says that the Sedu Flat irons
are made from Tourmaline, a precious stone.
This stone was used because it generates
up to 6 times more negative ions upon heating
than traditional ceramic irons. The extra
negative ions along with gentle far-infrared
heat guarantee soft, smooth, frizz-free
silky straight hair without heat damage.
Also, Sedu’s patented ultra-smooth plates
guarantee smooth straightening motion without
pulling, snagging or breaking the hair.
Huang mentions that many flat irons on the
market have very rough surfaces on the plates.
He adds, “Most irons cause hair damage because
essentially you are straightening your hair
with a heated sand paper.”
Many hair stylists recommend using some
sort of silicone based product on the hair
before flat ironing in order to protect
the hair. Sedu Beauty recommends Biosilk
Silk Therapy and Sedu Heat Protectant. They
also recommend using lower heat settings
for different types of hair. If you have
bleached, fragile, damaged or fine hair—use
the lower temperature setting. If you have
normal hair and use the iron regularly,
use the middle range of temperatures and
if you have coarse, thick, ethnic or resistant
hair that is in a healthy condition you
can use the maximum heat for best results.
In short, my conclusion, 8 minutes and a
Sedu Ionic Flat Iron has made a huge difference
in the way my hair looks and feels. It is
THUMBS UP for Sedu Flat Irons from Hair
Resources.
Now all I need is a weight loss product
that works in 8 minutes!
