Philips StraightCare Essential BHS378/00 Hair Straightener, Black/Pink

The Philips StraightCare Essential BHS378/00 hair straightener is a mains-powered tool designed for smoothing and styling. It features keratin-infused ceramic plates that glide through the hair. The 100 mm plates provide consistent contact for efficient styling, while a temperature range of 160°C to 230°C allows for adjustments based on hair texture and thickness. Six heat settings can be selected via the adjustable thermostat, ensuring controlled heat application for a sleek finish.

ThermoProtect technology distributes heat evenly across the plates to prevent hotspots. The straightener also features an ionic function, which releases negative ions to reduce static and smooth the hair. A built-in sensor monitors thermal consistency during use, and an LED display indicates the current setting. The unit includes a hanging loop for convenient storage and an indicator light that signals when the plates have reached the selected temperature.

• Rapid heating: Reaches operating temperature in 3 seconds to minimise waiting time.
• Versatile plates: 28 mm wide plates suitable for managing medium to thick hair sections.
• Swivel cord: A 1.8-metre power cord that rotates to prevent tangling during use.
• Travel compatibility: Dual voltage support for use with 110V and 240V power systems.
• Safety shutdown: Automatically switches off after 60 minutes of inactivity.
• Secure storage: The handle includes a locking mechanism to keep the plates closed when not in use.
