Jilbere Ceramic Tools Porcelain Series Professional Flat Irons feature porcelain plates. Porcelain is a fine ceramic compound with greater strength and durability for precise heat distribution and state-of-the-art performance. The "diamond hard" surface allows the hair to gently glide through the plates, preventing snagging and breakage. When introduced to heat, the porcelain ceramic emits far infrared heat waves, which have longer wavelengths. Heat at this level is more easily absorbed by the hair, resulting in enhanced vitality, reduced stress, and healthier hair.
