Hello Shine

Get ready for glossy, smooth styles with no damage and go between straightening and curling all with one tool. The Philips Aqua Edition Hair Straightener features sensors that adjust heat in real-time to protect against damage5 so you can effortlessly lock in beautiful, long-lasting shiny styles5.

Simultaneously style and nourish your hair

NourishCare Technology combines vitamin E and Moroccan argan oil into one specially blended serum that nourishes your hair at the same time as you style it. So, no more pre-treatment, yet no heat damage either! Just healthy-looking, shinier hair** you'll feel great about all day.

Protect your hair from heat damage

The slow-releasing serum offers heat protection from the moment the straightening plates touch your hair. For better result, ensure strips are facing down towards hair ends and press the handles firmly together.

Deep conditioning with the power of nourishing ingredients

Our serum is a deeply conditioning blend of nutrient-rich ingredients suitable for different hair types. Vitamin E and Moroccan argan oil are well known for their conditioning and antioxidant properties. Together they help replenish your hair's shine to keep it looking and feeling smooth, soft and healthy.

Use fresh strips every session

Serum strips are effective for one styling session. Replace them each time you style. It's easy to do and only takes a moment.

Worth it

Loved how this styler smoothens and styles hair without making it dry. Vitamin E and Moroccan argan oil keeps hair soft, shiny, and healthy-looking even after styling. No extra serum needed and hair feels protected from heat damage too. Perfect for everyday styling
