FOUR OUT OF FIVE PEOPLE ARE STYLING AT THE WRONG TEMPERATURE:
BACKED BY SCIENCE: HOW DOES THE TEMPERATURE CALCULATOR WORK
The Temperature Calculator is underpinned by a matrix of temperature recommendations collated from 18 separate sources*.
Created with a team of expert hair professionals, the Temperature Calculator serves users with their perfect heat setting. We know hair won’t stay the same throughout people’s lives, whether that’s through styling changes or changes specific to different life stages or health conditions. That means the optimum styling temperature might change as they do. We’ve factored that in. There are five million possible unique journeys users can take through the tool – and one of 11 recommended styling temperatures served to them as a result. Users can re-take the quiz as they need to, to reflect their unique hair journey.
let's get started
WHY DO I NEED A SPECIFIC TEMPERATURE TO STYLE MY HAIR?
Our research has shown that four out of five people unknowingly use the wrong heat for their hair type. Each hair type needs a unique temperature to achieve the perfect look while maintaining hair health. Your hair’s texture, colour treatments, life stage and overall condition also contribute to your hair’s ideal heat setting. Find out more in these mini-guides and discover the perfect temperature for your hair.
