Is a ceramic iron better than titanium?

And in the long run, that may be a good thing.

Can flat iron cause baldness?

While there is no direct connection between use of a flat iron and hair loss, the damage is a direct result.

Why is titanium better than ceramic?

When used properly, however, titanium can be a quicker and more effective option, especially if you seek out a straightener with a heat sensor to prevent overheating.
