The Comeback: The stove and Marcel Irons!

Ebony Magazine September 2012 edition showcases a photo shoot with a stylist using a marcel curling iron in hand. Halleujah! The flat irons are finally coming under fire! One of my clients mentioned that the Dr. Oz show had a dermatologist confirming the dangers of flat iron usage within the last few months.
Also, in this recent 2012 advertisement for professional ear protectors, the stove, pressing comb, and marcel irons are side by side of the ionic flat irons! Hello! Finally, my beauty industry colleagues are seeing the light!

By the way, would you pay $20.00 USD for these Mimi's Ear Shields?

  2. Hi alx: I found a two part video at Dr. Oz website. My client told me that it aired. I did not watch the episode on telelvision nor could I get the video link to play for me. Hopefully, you can get it to play. All of my clients who have finally listened to me and have learned to straighten their hair without the flat iron have not picked it up again. They see the difference. I still have a few that are slow to jump on the flat iron free bandwagon; in due time, they will get there.

  3. Chaz Dean appeared on the Ricki Lake Show this past week and had a model with flat iron damage. He recommended Blow dry and round brushing instead of flat ironing hair.
