- To turn the straightener on and to turn it off, you need to hold your finger on the button for a few seconds. No need to press the button. This can be considered an additional measure of protection against accidental activation of the device, for example, by curious kids.
- When you turn on the display starts flashing “200 ° C”. This is the default temperature. With the + and – buttons you can raise or lower the temperature of the plates. These buttons respond to a light touch, one step is 10 ° C.
- On the back side of the body there is a mechanical latch. Straightener “opens” simply, just swipe your finger. But to close the device, you need to apply a certain force, otherwise the lock will not click.
Design
Hair flatters are often used by stylists in high-end salons. Before getting a haircut they straighten hair to evenly cut every hair and please the client with a perfect result.
The main advantage of the Vitek VT-8410BK – “floating” plates.
The plate is attached to the base on shock absorbers, which spring the entire plate, allowing to change the angle relative to the base by 2 – 3 mm. It provides a more gentle treatment of the hair when straightening strands.
The large area of the plates allows you to straighten a sufficiently large strand of hair at once, which reduces the total time of the procedure.
Heating elements PTC Heating Technology quickly stabilize the temperature, the plates do not overheat and the hair is not dried out.
The cord in the place of attachment to the body is wrapped in a durable braid that protects it from damage, it rotates 360 degrees, allowing freedom of movement. As with the other appliances, the cord is the same length and thickness as other similar ones.
I note that this rectifier has a convenient wide loop for hanging. This is important if you plan to store the straightener by hanging it on a wall hook.
