best flat irons of 2025, according to hair experts ","articleBody":"There are various tools that can help you create a salon-worthy blowout at home, including curling wands, hair dryers and, perhaps the most versatile of them all, flat irons. A flat iron can often have similar functions as a round brush or curling iron, which minimizes your need for extra hair tools, especially if you’re traveling. To help you find the best flat iron for your hair type, I spoke to experts and hairstylists about how to shop for a flat iron and how to protect your hair from heat damage. I also gathered their recommendations for the best flat irons to shop, as well as NBC Select staff favorites. SKIP AHEAD Best flat irons to shop | How do ceramic, tourmaline and titanium flat irons differ? | How to shop for a flat iron | Do flat irons damage hair? | Why trust NBC Select? How I picked the best flat irons Flat irons provide sleek, long-lasting looks that smooth the cuticle and lock in a specific style with minimal tension and less repetitive passes on the hair fibers, says Bridgette Hill, a certified trichologist and scalp expert. When shopping for one, our experts recommend looking at the following factors: Plate type: There are three main types of flat iron plates: ceramic (good for dry, damaged or fine hair and generally more affordable), tourmaline (good for all hair types) and titanium (the most durable and good for coarse thick, curly and coily hair).Plate size: Most flat iron plates are available in sizes between 1 inch and 2 inches (our experts recommend avoiding options larger than 2 inches). Smaller plates are best for those with short hair and offer more styling versatility, whereas larger plates are best for those with long hair. Heat settings: Our experts recommend looking for models that have multiple temperature settings so you can tailor the amount of heat to your specific hair type. Some flat irons have a digital display that lets you know the exact temperature, too.Your hair type: The amount of heat your hair can tolerate depends on the type of hair you have. Fine, less dense hair doesn’t need much heat to straighten it, so consider setting your flat iron’s temperature around 250 degrees Fahrenheit to prevent damage, says Shawn Harvey, hairstylist and owner of ShawnCutMaster Inc in Pennsylvania. For medium-thick hair, consider using a temperature between 250-350 degrees Fahrenheit; thick and coarse hair will need slightly more heat to lay the hair’s cuticle flat, so you’ll want to use a temperature between 350-400 degrees Fahrenheit, says Harvey.Price: Ceramic-plated flat irons are typically more affordable, while durable titanium flat irons will have a higher price tag (upwards of $150). Best flat irons of 2025 Below, I rounded up experts’ recommendations for the best flat irons to shop, all with varying plate types, sizes and heat settings. I also included favorites from our NBC Select editors. Best flat iron overall: Dyson Airstrait Hair Straightener Dyson is an NBC Select staff-favorite brand for hair tools, and the brand’s straighteners come recommended by Kyle DeToure, a Washington-based hairstylist and colorist. The Dyson Airstrait, the brand’s newest flat iron, uses hot air to dry and straighten your hair instead of hot plates (which helps cause less heat damage to your hair, according to the brand). In addition to using the tool on wet or damp hair, you can use it to refresh or touch-up dry hair. For efficiency, the tool senses when hair is closeby, and automatically drops to low airflow when it’s not, according to Dyson. It also has an LCD screen that displays airflow and temperature settings, plus an auto-pause feature after three seconds of inactivity. If you're looking for a more traditional flat iron, consider the Dyson Corrale, which uses magnesium copper alloy plates instead of the traditional ceramic or titanium plates to help cause less heat damage to your hair, according to the brand. Plate type: n/a | Plate size: n/a | Number of heat settings: 3 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 285 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: no; auto-pause after 3 seconds Best hybrid flat iron: CHI Original 1-inch Digital Ceramic Iron This tourmaline-infused ceramic iron comes recommended by Harvey because it gives hair a smooth finish, she says. It takes 30 seconds to heat up to the maximum temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the brand. “Its sleek design also makes it easy to straighten, curl or wave [hair] effortlessly,” says Harvey. Plate type: ceramic and tourmaline | Plate size: 1 inch | Heat settings: 5 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 425 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 60 minutes Best for heat damage prevention:T3 Micro Lucea Straightening and Styling Iron T3 is a quality hair tool brand, according to Tina Malhotra, hairstylist and owner of Hair By Tina M. This highly rated option has nine heat settings that you can adjust using the built-in digital display. The flat iron also includes a smart microchip that monitors heat fluctuations and maintains a consistent temperature while you use it, according to the brand. The flat iron is available in both a 1-inch and 1.5-inch version. Plate type: ceramic | Plate size: 1 inch | Heat settings: 9 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 410 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 60 minutes Best splurge: ghd Platinum+ Styler 1-inch Flat Iron David Jones-Muñoz, a stylist and owner of Salon Dumbo in Brooklyn, says he keeps this flat iron handy and loves that it has a small curve to help create a beachy wave. Although it does not have a digital display, it has smart technology that helps the straightener maintain a preset temperature as you style, according to Ghd. Plate type: ceramic | Plate size: 1 inch | Heat settings: 1 | Digital display: no | Max heat: 365 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 30 minutes Best ergonomic flat iron: Drybar Reserve Dual-Plate Styling Iron NBC Select associate reporter Bianca Alvarez recommends this flat iron from Drybar, which she uses to get pin straight hair as well as waves. The ergonomic hot tool, which reaches 450 degrees Fahrenheit, has four small plates that require fewer passes, creating less heat damage, according to the brand. “I have medium, dry hair and after using this flat iron, my hair looks way less frizzy because I’m able to get close to my roots and take it all the way down to my ends in one go,” says Alvarez. Plate type: titanium | Plate size: 0.5 inch | Heat settings: 5 | Digital display: no | Max heat: 450 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 60 minutes Best for multi-styling: Kristin Ess 3-in-1 Titanium Flatiron You can use this tool, which has a 4.6-star average rating from over 1,400 reviews on Amazon, to create straight, wavy or curly hair. Reviewers say it’s easy to use because it heats up quickly, glides without any snagging or pulling and has a long cord that doesn’t get in their way. It also comes with a heat-resistant travel cap to protect the surfaces you place your hot tool on. Plate type: titanium | Plate size: 1.25 inches | Heat settings: 4 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 440 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 30 minutes Best budget pick: Infinitipro by Conair Rainbow Titanium Flat Iron After owning this flat iron for years, it’s still my all-time favorite — it’s one of the only flat irons I’ve used that doesn’t pull at my hair and heats up fast. You can adjust the temperature on the digital display, which makes using it so much easier than using side buttons, and I love knowing the exact temperature that it’s at so I don’t fry my hair. Aside from its performance, its slim shape doesn’t take up too much space while I’m traveling. Plate type: titanium | Plate size: 1 inch | Heat settings: 6 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 450 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: n/a Best for precision: Paul Mitchell Express Smooth Ion & Ceramic Flat Iron This flat iron is easy to use and heats up and cools quickly, says Harvey. The slim design lets you be precise and get close to your roots as you straighten or curl your hair thanks to its rounded edges, she says. It’s available in two sizes: 1.25 inch plates and 1.5 inch plates, the latter of which is great for those with long, thick or coarse hair, according to the brand. Plate type: ceramic | Plate size: 1.25 inches | Heat settings: 8 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 410 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 60 minutes Best for quick styling: BaBylissPro Nano Titanium Ionic Hair Straightener This Babyliss flat iron has elongated plates to help you style your hair faster, according to the brand. This flat iron, which has a 4.6-average star rating from 7,700 reviews on Amazon, heats up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and can straighten or create waves, according to Babyliss. Reviewers say it works on all hair types, including fine and very coarse hair, and leaves hair frizz-free. This flat iron is also available in a larger size with 1.75 inch plates. Plate type: titanium | Plate size: 1.25 inches | Heat settings: 5 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 450 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: n/a Best for heating up quickly: Cloud Nine Original Flat Iron The Cloud Nine flat iron, which comes recommended by London-based hair stylist Stefan Bertin, is available in three sizes: 0.5 inches, 1 inch and 1.5 inches. It has seven temperature settings, which is helpful for determining which one works best for your hair type, according to the brand. The ceramic plates are infused with minerals (including tourmaline), so you get a snag-free glide, says Bertin. The tool takes 20 seconds to reach its maximum temperature, according to the brand, and has a protective guard to keep your surfaces safe from heat damage. Plate type: ceramic and tourmaline | Plate size: 1 inch | Heat settings: 7 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 392 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 30 minutes Best for waves: T3 SinglePass Smooth X Professional Flat Iron I recently fell in love with this T3 flat iron after the brand sent it to me to try out, and it's now one of my favorite hair tools to use. It has more rounded and longer plates than most other options on this list, which makes it easier and quicker to create smooth waves. It's also super lightweight and easy to hold without it slipping out of my hands, in my experience. I also notice the ceramic plates leave my hair smooth and frizz-free with every pass. Plate type: ceramic | Plate size: 1 inch | Heat settings: 9 | Digital display: no | Max heat: n/a | Automatic shut off: after 1 hour Best for travel: Ghd Original Styler 1” Flat Iron If you want a flat iron that will last you a long time, consider this option, which comes recommended by NBC Select editor Lindsay Schneider. “I’ve been straightening my hair since I was 10 and have only ever used two straighteners, including this one that I’ve owned for five years now,” she says. Unlike most other flat irons on our list, which allow you to adjust the temperature, this one is pre-set to prevent extreme heat on your hair, according to the brand. It also has universal voltage, so you can take it overseas, according to Ghd. Plate type: ceramic | Plate size: 1 inch | Heat settings: 1 | Digital display: no | Max heat: 365 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 30 minutes Best lightweight flat iron: Paul Mitchell Neuro Smooth Titanium Flat Iron Malhotra has used this Paul Mitchell flat iron at her salon for years. It has 1.25-inch plates (it also comes in a 1.5-inch version, which is best for thicker, more coarse hair) and has rounded edges that can make it easier to style your hair into waves, curls or flips, according to the brand. The flat iron heats up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit in 45 seconds, according to Paul Mitchell. It also lets you set a custom timer for when you want it to turn off automatically. Plate type: titanium | Plate size: 1.25 inches | Heat settings: 4 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 450 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 120 minutes or sooner based on customization features Best for dry hair: Amika The Confidante Moisture Maintenance Titanium Flat Iron This Amika hot tool uses infrared light beams in its titanium plates to maintain your hair’s moisture while you straighten, curl or create waves, according to the brand. Not only does it keep moisture locked in, but it also helps minimize frizz, which occurs frequently in overly dry hair, according to Amika. Reviewers say it makes their thick, frizz-prone hair look smooth, and it takes a shorter amount of time to style since it only requires one to two passes. The flat iron has a 4.5-star average rating from over 300 reviews on Amazon. Plate type: titanium | Plate size: 1.25 inches | Heat settings: unlimited between 170 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 450 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: after 60 minutes Best durable flat iron:Creative Professional SCW 1-inch Styling Iron Jones-Muñoz calls this flat iron a “workhorse” and says he likes using it at his salon because of its thick, durable plates. The adjustable temperature works well for his clients, and he prefers the brand’s ceramic plates over titanium because it offers a better “pull” on the hair, making it easier to style. Plate type: ceramic | Plate size: 1 inch | Heat settings: 5 | Digital display: no | Max heat: 450 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: n/a How do ceramic, tourmaline and titanium flat irons differ? The three most common flat iron plates are ceramic, tourmaline and titanium. Each one will straighten hair, but different attributes make each more beneficial for certain hair textures, ranging from fine wavy hair to kinky coils. Ceramic flat irons Ceramic flat irons, which have ceramic-coated plates, are the most affordable option out of the three types of hair straighteners, says Bertin. They don’t get as hot as titanium and tourmaline, which makes them “ideal for those with dry, damaged or fine hair,” he says. However, ceramic-coated plates often need to be routinely checked since the coating can wear and chip away — in fact, when the metal beneath (usually aluminum) is exposed, it can cause damage to your hair, says Bertin. Ceramic flat irons provide fairly even heat distribution, glide through the hair smoothly and leave behind a glossy sheen, says Courtney Foster, a licensed cosmetologist and owner of Courtney Foster Beauty. However, both Foster and Bertin agree that those with thick, coarse hair should pass on ceramic flat irons since they don’t typically reach high enough temperatures to straighten thicker hair. Tourmaline flat irons Tourmaline-coated plates are generally constructed from a tourmaline (a mineral) and ceramic blend that “offers an extra layer of protection and smoothness,” says Hill. Tourmaline irons are considered the best of the three types because their heat distribution means you’ll need fewer passes to get your desired straightening effect, says Bertin. “Tourmaline plates are a step above the ceramic plates when hair type and texture are medium with loose waves and nominal frizz,” says Hill. Tourmaline provides a barrier to excessive heat and, as with most modern heating tools, you can adjust the temperature settings to fit the majority of hair types and textures. Titanium flat irons Titanium is a strong, durable metal best suited for professional salon use on coarse thick, curly and coily hair. These plates typically heat up the quickest and more evenly distribute heat compared to ceramic plates, which allows for fewer passes over the hair, a smoother finish and better results than a ceramic iron, says Foster. However, titanium can cause the most damage to your hair, so you should avoid these if you have fine or damaged hair, according to Hill. “The heat transfer from titanium is intense, quick and, if used frequently or improperly, can create irreversible heat damage and breakage,” says Hill. She recommends leaving titanium to the professionals and touching up at home with a tourmaline or ceramic iron when needed. How to shop for a flat iron In addition to the plate materials, our experts recommend looking at features like size of the plates and a digital display to monitor the temperature. Plate size and shape “Smaller plates are better for short hair, whereas larger plates are better for longer hair,” says Bertin. However, the plate size won’t really affect the finished product, but it will affect the speed at which you get there, he says. Once plates get to 2 inches wide or above, there’s less versatility and less chance that you’ll move the straightener quick enough without burning the hair, says Jones-Muñoz. If you’re looking to use a flat iron for curls and beach waves, consider using flat irons with rounded edges that allow you to curl your hair onto the back of the straightener without much tug and pull, says Jones-Muñoz. Price Flat irons vary in price based on multiple factors, including plate quality and material, size and brand recognition. “If you’re using it for a quick touch-up or once a month, then you could go with something that’s a little less expensive,” says Jones-Muñoz. More durable straighteners (like those with titanium plates) are on the pricier side, but they will be less likely to wear and chip with frequent use. Digital display Our experts agree that flat irons should have a button or knob that displays the temperature you’re using. Harvey recommends flat irons with a digital display, which indicates the exact temperature the iron reaches and any fluctuations. Do flat irons damage hair? Improper use, like using a temperature too high for your hair type, can cause damage, according to our experts. “Hair is a fabric and, like any material, heat can deteriorate and break down the hair structure,” says Hill. The cuticle — the outer layer of a hair strand — can very easily become damaged by heat over 356 degrees Fahrenheit, experts told us. Damaging that cuticle layer will make your hair more porous, which means it will struggle to hold on to moisture, causing dryness and breakage. Determining the safest heat setting depends on your hair type and texture. “Thick hair can use a higher setting, while thin hair should use a lower heat setting,” says Foster. When using a flat iron, you should do so via quick passes on low or medium temperature and you should always use some kind of heat protectant when using any hot tool, according to our experts. Severe damage is likely irreparable and has to be grown out, says Bertin. Although hair straighteners are safe when used properly, you shouldn’t use them (or any hot tool) every day, our experts say. “Even with the best heat protectants in the game, heat is not something you should be exposing your hair to every day,” says Bertin. “Those with afro-textured hair, for example, should consider flat ironing their hair at most once a week because our hair is naturally more fragile and dry, so flat ironing any more than that is a huge no-no,” says Bertin.

the best flat irons</h2></a><p class="body-graf">Flat irons provide sleek, long-lasting looks that smooth the cuticle and lock in a specific style with minimal tension and less repetitive passes on the hair fibers, says<a href="https://bridgettehill.com/" target="_blank"> Bridgette Hill</a>, a certified trichologist and scalp expert. When shopping for one, our experts recommend looking at the following factors:</p><ul class="break-above body-ul body-list-el"><li><strong>Plate type:</strong> There are three main types of flat iron plates: ceramic (good for<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/select/shopping/best-shampoo-for-dry-hair-rcna125381" target="_blank"> dry</a>, damaged or fine hair and generally more affordable), tourmaline (good for all hair types) and titanium (the most durable and good for coarse thick,<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/select/shopping/curl-hair-type-explained-rcna129053" target="_blank"> curly</a> and coily hair).</li><li><strong>Plate size: </strong>Most flat iron plates are available in sizes between 1 inch and 2 inches (our experts recommend avoiding options larger than 2 inches). Smaller plates are best for those with short hair and offer more styling versatility, whereas larger plates are best for those with long hair. </li><li><strong>Heat settings:</strong> Our experts recommend looking for models that have multiple temperature settings so you can tailor the amount of heat to your specific hair type. Some flat irons have a digital display that lets you know the exact temperature, too.</li><li><strong>Your hair type: </strong>The amount of heat your hair can tolerate depends on the type of hair you have. Fine, less dense hair doesn’t need much heat to straighten it, so consider setting your flat iron’s temperature around 250 degrees Fahrenheit to prevent damage, says<a href="https://www.instagram.com/shawncutmaster/" target="_blank"> Shawn Harvey</a>, hairstylist and owner of ShawnCutMaster Inc in Pennsylvania. For medium-thick hair, consider using a temperature between 250-350 degrees Fahrenheit; thick and coarse hair will need slightly more heat to lay the hair’s cuticle flat, so you’ll want to use a temperature between 350-400 degrees Fahrenheit, says Harvey.</li><li><strong>Price: </strong>Ceramic-plated flat irons are typically more affordable, while durable titanium flat irons will have a higher price tag (upwards of $150).</li></ul><div><section class="related related--single dn-print" data-activity-map="related-article-body-related" data-testid="related" aria-label="Related content"><h3 class="related__title">Related</h3><div id="related" class="related__items"><div class="related-item related-item__single"><div class="related-item__thumbnail-wrapper"><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/select/shopping/best-heat-protectants-rcna140023" data-icid="related" class="related-item__link related-item__picture-link"><picture class="related-item__thumbnail__image" data-testid="picture"><source media="(min-width: 1240px)" srcSet="https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_focal-320x160,f_avif,q_auto:eco,dpr_2/rockcms/2024-02/240214-heat-protection-kb-social-fa6c2d.jpg 2x, https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_focal-320x160,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2024-02/240214-heat-protection-kb-social-fa6c2d.jpg 1x"/><source media="(min-width: 758px)" srcSet="https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_focal-280x140,f_avif,q_auto:eco,dpr_2/rockcms/2024-02/240214-heat-protection-kb-social-fa6c2d.jpg 2x, https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_focal-280x140,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2024-02/240214-heat-protection-kb-social-fa6c2d.jpg 1x"/><source media="(min-width: 320px)" srcSet="https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_focal-80x80,f_avif,q_auto:eco,dpr_2/rockcms/2024-02/240214-heat-protection-kb-social-fa6c2d.jpg 2x, https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_focal-80x80,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2024-02/240214-heat-protection-kb-social-fa6c2d.jpg 1x"/><img loading="lazy" src="https://media-cldnry.s-nbcnews.com/image/upload/t_focal-80x80,f_auto,q_auto:best/rockcms/2024-02/240214-heat-protection-kb-social-fa6c2d.jpg" alt="" height="60" width="60"/></picture></a><span class="related-item__eyebrow"><a class="related-item__label" href="/select"><span>select</span></a><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/select/shopping/best-heat-protectants-rcna140023" data-icid="related"></a></span></div><div class="related-item__info-wrapper"><h3 class="related-item__title"><a class="" href="/select"><span class="related-item__eyebrow">select</span></a><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/select/shopping/best-heat-protectants-rcna140023" data-icid="related" class="related-item__link">Stop using heat on your hair without this crucial product.</a></h3></div></div></div></section></div><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Bestflatironsof2025" id="anchor-Bestflatironsof2025" class="scrollLink"><h2 class="body-heading">Best flat irons of 2025</h2></a><p class="body-graf">Below, I rounded up experts’ recommendations for the best flat irons to shop, all with varying plate types, sizes and heat settings.

href="https://www.kyledetoure.com/" target="_blank"> Kyle DeToure</a>, a Washington-based hairstylist and colorist. The Dyson Airstrait, the brand’s newest flat iron, uses hot air to dry and straighten your hair instead of hot plates (which helps cause less heat damage to your hair, according to the brand). In addition to using the tool on wet or damp hair, you can use it to refresh or touch-up dry hair. For efficiency, the tool senses when hair is closeby, and automatically drops to low airflow when it’s not, according to Dyson. It also has an LCD screen that displays airflow and temperature settings, plus an auto-pause feature after three seconds of inactivity. </p><p class="body-graf">If you're looking for a more

Reviewers say it makes their thick, frizz-prone hair look smooth, and it takes a shorter amount of time to style since it only requires one to two passes.

using it at his salon because of its thick, durable plates. The adjustable temperature works well for his clients, and he prefers the brand’s ceramic plates over titanium because it offers a better “pull” on the hair, making it easier to style.</p><p class="body-graf"><strong><em>Plate type: </em></strong><em>ceramic | </em><strong><em>Plate size:</em></strong><em> 1 inch | </em><strong><em>Heat settings: </em></strong><em>5 | </em><strong><em>Digital display: </em></strong><em>no | </em><strong><em>Max heat:</em></strong><em> 450 degrees Fahrenheit | </em><strong><em>Automatic shut off:</em></strong><em> n/a</em></p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Howdoceramictourmalineandtitaniumflatironsdiffer" id="anchor-Howdoceramictourmalineandtitaniumflatironsdiffer" class="scrollLink"><h2 class="body-heading">How do ceramic, tourmaline and titanium flat irons differ?</h2></a><p class="body-graf">The three most common flat iron plates are ceramic, tourmaline and titanium. Each one will straighten hair, but different attributes make each more beneficial for certain hair textures, ranging from fine wavy hair to kinky coils.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Ceramicflatirons" id="anchor-Ceramicflatirons" class="scrollLink"><h3 class="body-heading">Ceramic flat irons</h3></a><p class="body-graf">Ceramic flat irons, which have ceramic-coated plates, are the most affordable option out of the three types of hair straighteners, says Bertin. They don’t get as hot as titanium and tourmaline, which makes them “ideal for those with dry, damaged or fine hair,” he says. However, ceramic-coated plates often need to be routinely checked since the coating can wear and chip away — in fact, when the metal beneath (usually aluminum) is exposed, it can cause damage to your hair, says Bertin.</p><p class="body-graf">Ceramic flat irons provide fairly even heat distribution, glide through the hair smoothly and leave behind a glossy sheen, says<a href="https://www.instagram.com/courtneyfosterbeautyllc/" target="_blank"> Courtney Foster</a>, a licensed cosmetologist and owner of Courtney Foster Beauty. However, both Foster and Bertin agree that those with thick, coarse hair should pass on ceramic flat irons since they don’t typically reach high enough temperatures to straighten thicker hair.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Tourmalineflatirons" id="anchor-Tourmalineflatirons" class="scrollLink"><h3 class="body-heading">Tourmaline flat irons</h3></a><p class="body-graf">Tourmaline-coated plates are generally constructed from a tourmaline (a mineral) and ceramic blend that “offers an extra layer of protection and smoothness,” says Hill. Tourmaline irons are considered the best of the three types because their heat distribution means you’ll need fewer passes to get your desired straightening effect, says Bertin.</p><p class="body-graf">“Tourmaline plates are a step above the ceramic plates when hair type and texture are medium with loose waves and nominal frizz,” says Hill. Tourmaline provides a barrier to excessive heat and, as with most modern heating tools, you can adjust the temperature settings to fit the majority of hair types and textures.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Titaniumflatirons" id="anchor-Titaniumflatirons" class="scrollLink"><h3 class="body-heading">Titanium flat irons</h3></a><p class="body-graf">Titanium is a strong, durable metal best suited for professional salon use on coarse thick, curly and coily hair. These plates typically heat up the quickest and more evenly distribute heat compared to ceramic plates, which allows for fewer passes over the hair, a smoother finish and better results than a ceramic iron, says Foster. However, titanium can cause the most damage to your hair, so you should avoid these if you have fine or damaged hair, according to Hill.</p><p class="body-graf">“The heat transfer from titanium is intense, quick and, if used frequently or improperly, can create irreversible heat damage and breakage,” says Hill. She recommends leaving titanium to the professionals and touching up at home with a tourmaline or ceramic iron when needed.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Howtoshopforaflatiron" id="anchor-Howtoshopforaflatiron" class="scrollLink"><h2 class="body-heading">How to shop for a flat iron</h2></a><p class="body-graf">In addition to the plate materials, our experts recommend looking at features like size of the plates and a digital display to monitor the temperature.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Platesizeandshape" id="anchor-Platesizeandshape" class="scrollLink"><h3 class="body-heading">Plate size and shape</h3></a><p class="body-graf">“Smaller plates are better for short hair, whereas larger plates are better for longer hair,” says Bertin. However, the plate size won’t really affect the finished product, but it will affect the speed at which you get there, he says.</p><p class="body-graf">Once plates get to 2 inches wide or above, there’s less versatility and less chance that you’ll move the straightener quick enough without burning the hair, says Jones-Muñoz.</p><p class="body-graf">If you’re looking to use a flat iron for curls and beach waves, consider using flat irons with rounded edges that allow you to curl your hair onto the back of the straightener without much tug and pull, says Jones-Muñoz.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Price" id="anchor-Price" class="scrollLink"><h3 class="body-heading">Price</h3></a><p class="body-graf">Flat irons vary in price based on multiple factors, including plate quality and material, size and brand recognition.</p><p class="body-graf">“If you’re using it for a quick touch-up or once a month, then you could go with something that’s a little less expensive,” says Jones-Muñoz. More durable straighteners (like those with titanium plates) are on the pricier side, but they will be less likely to wear and chip with frequent use.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Digitaldisplay" id="anchor-Digitaldisplay" class="scrollLink"><h3 class="body-heading">Digital display</h3></a><p class="body-graf">Our experts agree that flat irons should have a button or knob that displays the temperature you’re using. Harvey recommends flat irons with a digital display, which indicates the exact temperature the iron reaches and any fluctuations.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Doflatironsdamagehair" id="anchor-Doflatironsdamagehair" class="scrollLink"><h2 class="body-heading">Do flat irons damage hair?</h2></a><p class="body-graf">Improper use, like using a temperature too high for your hair type, can cause damage, according to our experts. “Hair is a fabric and, like any material, heat can deteriorate and break down the hair structure,” says Hill. The cuticle — the outer layer of a hair strand — can very easily become damaged by heat over 356 degrees Fahrenheit, experts told us. Damaging that cuticle layer will make your hair more porous, which means it will struggle to hold on to moisture, causing dryness and breakage.</p><p class="body-graf">Determining the safest heat setting depends on your hair type and texture. “Thick hair can use a higher setting, while thin hair should use a lower heat setting,” says Foster. </p><p class="body-graf">When using a flat iron, you should do so via quick passes on low or medium temperature and you should always use some kind of<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/select/shopping/best-heat-protectants-rcna140023" target="_blank"> heat protectant</a> when using any hot tool, according to our experts. Severe damage is likely irreparable and has to be grown out, says Bertin. Although hair straighteners are safe when used properly, you shouldn’t use them (or any hot tool) every day, our experts say.</p><p class="body-graf">“Even with the best heat protectants in the game, heat is not something you should be exposing your hair to every day,” says Bertin. “Those with afro-textured hair, for example, should consider flat ironing their hair at most once a week because our hair is naturally more fragile and dry, so flat ironing any more than that is a huge no-no,” says Bertin.</p><a href="/select/shopping/best-flat-irons-hair-straighteners-ncna1234372#anchor-Meetourexperts" id="anchor-Meetourexperts" class="scrollLink"><h2 class="body-heading">Meet our experts</h2></a><p class="body-graf">At NBC Select, we work with experts who have specialized knowledge and authority based on relevant training and/or experience.

A flat iron can often have similar functions as a round brush or curling iron, which minimizes your need for extra hair tools, especially if you’re traveling.","To help you find the best flat iron for your hair type, I spoke to experts and hairstylists about how to shop for a flat iron and how to protect your hair from heat damage. I also gathered their recommendations for the best flat irons to shop, as well as NBC Select staff favorites.","SKIP AHEAD Best flat irons to shop | How do ceramic, tourmaline and titanium flat irons differ? | How to shop for a flat iron | Do flat irons damage hair? | Why trust NBC Select?","How I picked the best flat irons","Flat irons provide sleek, long-lasting looks that smooth the cuticle and lock in a specific style with minimal tension and less repetitive passes on the hair fibers, says Bridgette Hill, a certified trichologist and scalp expert. When shopping for one, our experts recommend looking at the following factors:","Plate type: There are three main types of flat iron plates: ceramic (good for dry, damaged or fine hair and generally more affordable), tourmaline (good for all hair types) and titanium (the most durable and good for coarse thick, curly and coily hair).Plate size: Most flat iron plates are available in sizes between 1 inch and 2 inches (our experts recommend avoiding options larger than 2 inches). Smaller plates are best for those with short hair and offer more styling versatility, whereas larger plates are best for those with long hair. Heat settings: Our experts recommend looking for models that have multiple temperature settings so you can tailor the amount of heat to your specific hair type. Some flat irons have a digital display that lets you know the exact temperature, too.Your hair type: The amount of heat your hair can tolerate depends on the type of hair you have. Fine, less dense hair doesn’t need much heat to straighten it, so consider setting your flat iron’s temperature around 250 degrees Fahrenheit to prevent damage, says Shawn Harvey, hairstylist and owner of ShawnCutMaster Inc in Pennsylvania. For medium-thick hair, consider using a temperature between 250-350 degrees Fahrenheit; thick and coarse hair will need slightly more heat to lay the hair’s cuticle flat, so you’ll want to use a temperature between 350-400 degrees Fahrenheit, says Harvey.Price: Ceramic-plated flat irons are typically more affordable, while durable titanium flat irons will have a higher price tag (upwards of $150).","Best flat irons of 2025","Below, I rounded up experts’ recommendations for the best flat irons to shop, all with varying plate types, sizes and heat settings. I also included favorites from our NBC Select editors.","Best flat iron overall: Dyson Airstrait Hair Straightener","Dyson is an NBC Select staff-favorite brand for hair tools, and the brand’s straighteners come recommended by Kyle DeToure, a Washington-based hairstylist and colorist. The Dyson Airstrait, the brand’s newest flat iron, uses hot air to dry and straighten your hair instead of hot plates (which helps cause less heat damage to your hair, according to the brand). In addition to using the tool on wet or damp hair, you can use it to refresh or touch-up dry hair. For efficiency, the tool senses when hair is closeby, and automatically drops to low airflow when it’s not, according to Dyson. It also has an LCD screen that displays airflow and temperature settings, plus an auto-pause feature after three seconds of inactivity. ","If you're looking for a more traditional flat iron, consider the Dyson Corrale, which uses magnesium copper alloy plates instead of the traditional ceramic or titanium plates to help cause less heat damage to your hair, according to the brand.","Plate type: n/a | Plate size: n/a | Number of heat settings: 3 | Digital display: yes | Max heat: 285 degrees Fahrenheit | Automatic shut off: no; auto-pause after 3 seconds","Best hybrid flat iron: CHI Original 1-inch Digital Ceramic Iron","This tourmaline-infused ceramic iron comes recommended by Harvey because it gives hair a smooth finish, she says.

Each one will straighten hair, but different attributes make each more beneficial for certain hair textures, ranging from fine wavy hair to kinky coils.","Ceramic flat irons","Ceramic flat irons, which have ceramic-coated plates, are the most affordable option out of the three types of hair straighteners, says Bertin. They don’t get as hot as titanium and tourmaline, which makes them “ideal for those with dry, damaged or fine hair,” he says. However, ceramic-coated plates often need to be routinely checked since the coating can wear and chip away — in fact, when the metal beneath (usually aluminum) is exposed, it can cause damage to your hair, says Bertin.","Ceramic flat irons provide fairly even heat distribution, glide through the hair smoothly and leave behind a glossy sheen, says Courtney Foster, a licensed cosmetologist and owner of Courtney Foster Beauty. However, both Foster and Bertin agree that those with thick, coarse hair should pass on ceramic flat irons since they don’t typically reach high enough temperatures to straighten thicker hair.","Tourmaline flat irons","Tourmaline-coated plates are generally constructed from a tourmaline (a mineral) and ceramic blend that “offers an extra layer of protection and smoothness,” says Hill. Tourmaline irons are considered the best of the three types because their heat distribution means you’ll need fewer passes to get your desired straightening effect, says Bertin.","“Tourmaline plates are a step above the ceramic plates when hair type and texture are medium with loose waves and nominal frizz,” says Hill. Tourmaline provides a barrier to excessive heat and, as with most modern heating tools, you can adjust the temperature settings to fit the majority of hair types and textures.","Titanium flat irons","Titanium is a strong, durable metal best suited for professional salon use on coarse thick, curly and coily hair. These plates typically heat up the quickest and more evenly distribute heat compared to ceramic plates, which allows for fewer passes over the hair, a smoother finish and better results than a ceramic iron, says Foster. However, titanium can cause the most damage to your hair, so you should avoid these if you have fine or damaged hair, according to Hill.","“The heat transfer from titanium is intense, quick and, if used frequently or improperly, can create irreversible heat damage and breakage,” says Hill. She recommends leaving titanium to the professionals and touching up at home with a tourmaline or ceramic iron when needed.","How to shop for a flat iron","In addition to the plate materials, our experts recommend looking at features like size of the plates and a digital display to monitor the temperature.","Plate size and shape","“Smaller plates are better for short hair, whereas larger plates are better for longer hair,” says Bertin. However, the plate size won’t really affect the finished product, but it will affect the speed at which you get there, he says.","Once plates get to 2 inches wide or above, there’s less versatility and less chance that you’ll move the straightener quick enough without burning the hair, says Jones-Muñoz.","If you’re looking to use a flat iron for curls and beach waves, consider using flat irons with rounded edges that allow you to curl your hair onto the back of the straightener without much tug and pull, says Jones-Muñoz.","Price","Flat irons vary in price based on multiple factors, including plate quality and material, size and brand recognition.","“If you’re using it for a quick touch-up or once a month, then you could go with something that’s a little less expensive,” says Jones-Muñoz. More durable straighteners (like those with titanium plates) are on the pricier side, but they will be less likely to wear and chip with frequent use.","Digital display","Our experts agree that flat irons should have a button or knob that displays the temperature you’re using. Harvey recommends flat irons with a digital display, which indicates the exact temperature the iron reaches and any fluctuations.","Do flat irons damage hair?","Improper use, like using a temperature too high for your hair type, can cause damage, according to our experts. “Hair is a fabric and, like any material, heat can deteriorate and break down the hair structure,” says Hill. The cuticle — the outer layer of a hair strand — can very easily become damaged by heat over 356 degrees Fahrenheit, experts told us. Damaging that cuticle layer will make your hair more porous, which means it will struggle to hold on to moisture, causing dryness and breakage.","Determining the safest heat setting depends on your hair type and texture. “Thick hair can use a higher setting, while thin hair should use a lower heat setting,” says Foster. ","When using a flat iron, you should do so via quick passes on low or medium temperature and you should always use some kind of heat protectant when using any hot tool, according to our experts. Severe damage is likely irreparable and has to be grown out, says Bertin. Although hair straighteners are safe when used properly, you shouldn’t use them (or any hot tool) every day, our experts say.","“Even with the best heat protectants in the game, heat is not something you should be exposing your hair to every day,” says Bertin. “Those with afro-textured hair, for example, should consider flat ironing their hair at most once a week because our hair is naturally more fragile and dry, so flat ironing any more than that is a huge no-no,” says Bertin.","Meet our experts","At NBC Select, we work with experts who have specialized knowledge and authority based on relevant training and/or experience.

The Dyson Airstrait, the brand’s newest flat iron, uses hot air to dry and straighten your hair instead of hot plates (which helps cause less heat damage to your hair, according to the brand). In addition to using the tool on wet or damp hair, you can use it to refresh or touch-up dry hair.

However, ceramic-coated plates often need to be routinely checked since the coating can wear and chip away — in fact, when the metal beneath (usually aluminum) is exposed, it can cause damage to your hair, says Bertin.","elementId":null},{"type":"markup","element":"p","html":"Ceramic flat irons provide fairly even heat distribution, glide through the hair smoothly and leave behind a glossy sheen, says\u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/courtneyfosterbeautyllc/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e Courtney Foster\u003c/a\u003e, a licensed cosmetologist and owner of Courtney Foster Beauty.

Tourmaline irons are considered the best of the three types because their heat distribution means you’ll need fewer passes to get your desired straightening effect, says Bertin.","elementId":null},{"type":"markup","element":"p","html":"“Tourmaline plates are a step above the ceramic plates when hair type and texture are medium with loose waves and nominal frizz,” says Hill. Tourmaline provides a barrier to excessive heat and, as with most modern heating tools, you can adjust the temperature settings to fit the majority of hair types and textures.","elementId":null},{"type":"markup","element":"h3","html":"Titanium flat irons","elementId":null},{"type":"markup","element":"p","html":"Titanium is a strong, durable metal best suited for professional salon use on coarse thick, curly and coily hair. These plates typically heat up the quickest and more evenly distribute heat compared to ceramic plates, which allows for fewer passes over the hair, a smoother finish and better results than a ceramic iron, says Foster. However, titanium can cause the most damage to your hair, so you should avoid these if you have fine or damaged hair, according to Hill.","elementId":null},{"type":"markup","element":"p","html":"“The heat transfer from titanium is intense, quick and, if used frequently or improperly, can create irreversible heat damage and breakage,” says Hill.

The cuticle — the outer layer of a hair strand — can very easily become damaged by heat over 356 degrees Fahrenheit, experts told us. Damaging that cuticle layer will make your hair more porous, which means it will struggle to hold on to moisture, causing dryness and breakage.","elementId":null},{"type":"markup","element":"p","html":"Determining the safest heat setting depends on your hair type and texture. “Thick hair can use a higher setting, while thin hair should use a lower heat setting,” says Foster.
