The Muk Style Stick 230-IR utilises a revolutionary strip of powerful far-infrared lights embedded in the ceramic plate. These infrared lights infuse a gentle heat deep inside the hair shaft without damaging the cuticle (surface layer) of the hair shaft. The ceramic plate also contains one million more negative ions than regular ceramic/tourmaline plates thus producing amazing shine, moisture balance plus protection from thermal damage. Hair is straightened with a single pass.
