How is Lava Tech different from other hair styling tools?  Well, Lava Tech uses TLC technology in the manufacturing of their hair tools.  What is TLC?  The letter "T" represents tourmaline and the letters "L" and "C" represent Lava Ceramics.

Lava is molten rock expelled during volcanic eruptions.  In its liquid form lava can reach extreme high temperatures; typically from 700 degrees centigrade to 1200 degrees centigrade.  Lava Tech discovered that adding lava stone nano particles to their ceramic surface provided increased even heat distribution and a remarkably hard, smooth styling surface that promotes anti-bacterial properties.  When combined with Tourmaline, a precious gemstone and natural source of negative ions, infrared heat is further maximized while ionic conditioning nourishes and protects hair's natural luster.
