I found an aluminium foil wraped around a black powder coating from a electrolyte capacitor.Wikipedia : quot; Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are constructed from two conducting?aluminium?foils, one of which is coated with an insulating?oxide?layer, and a paper spacer soaked in?electrolyteThe foil insulated by the oxide layer is the?anode?while theliquid?electrolyte and the second foil acts as thecathode.quot;
The BEST is made by CHI (it's about $199 for the low end) but you can find some deals onlineHairstylists use it and love it!
Remington makes a really good one that is very inexpensive ($20.00)I never thought it would be so good until it was used on my daughters hair and she has VERY VERY curly hairNot sure of the name of it but it is red, cant miss it.
Whatever the brand, it really doesn't matter.just make sure that it is ceramicThe others will only hurt and fry your hairIt is costly (over $100 for a good one), but it is worth it in the long run.
I've had my hair chemically straightened, at it was afro frizzy/curly before and now it is stick striaght, if you ever want to go the straighener route again I suggest you try ChiAlso, chemical straightners damage your hair, so you might want to be as gentle as possible on it right now, so I don't really suggest using hot tools every dayNow, to answer you question, I suggest Chi flat irons, or ask you stylist what they use, because they normally work really well on my hair.
It could be a species of aluminum, iron, or een platimunOnly a local lab testing it will tell you for sure.
