The best way to avoid damage and still use a ceramic hair straightener?

Buy a flat-iron spray. I use the matrix one and love it. This not only protects your hair from the negative effects of a ceramic hair straightener, but it also helps your hair to straighten more quickly. Another thing you can do to prevent damage is to always make sure that your hair is completely, 100% dry before you start to straighten it. Straightening wet hair causes tons of damage.

you must get your hair trimmed every 6 weeks, and CONDITION, with good stuff. I recommend Redkens All Soft Conditioner; you can leave it on for a few hours. I do it on Sunday when I閳ユ獡 cleaning house. You just need to keep up with your hair and you閳ユ獟l be fine.

condition your hair a lot, deep condition using a hair mask or plain deep conditioning treatment once a week, and use a heat styling tools protective spray on your hair each time you use it. OH, my friends do this a lot: no matter what anyone says, NEVER use an iron on wet hair. that's asking for split ends. also use maybe an anti frizz or dry hair shampoo.

start with the lowest setting on the straitener. if that doesn't work turn it up one setting. try using the lowest amount of heat possible. and if you have a beauty supply store in your are purchase a product called 2000 calarie conditioner. It's a deep conditioner you can use once or twice a week to help repair any damage you might cause. will help keep your hair health.

Use some hair protection when using heat stylers. Some serums can be found at the drugstore. Most say that it's for protection against heated style tools, etc. They work really well! And try to not straighten your hair at least one day a week to give it a break from heat.

Any form of heat is damaging to your hair. The best thing to do if you use heat (hair dryer, straightner, curling iron) Is to apply a leave in conditioner of some sort or styling agent. I use 24/7 Straightening cream from Sunsilk. Also a second little tip if you are worried about split ends from damage. Before you wash your hair apply conditioner to the ends of dry hair. Then go about you regular showering routine.

The best way to keep from damaging your hair is keeping your hair properly moisturized. Try using a heat activated conditioner. Try not to use excessive heat, most ceramic flat irons have a temperature gage don't use more heat then necessary. And my last piece of advise is to regularly clip all split ends in order to prevent further damage.
