So i was wondering, if it says that it's 100% ceramic, does that mean tha it really is 100% ceramic? I bought my flat iron on ebay and the fact that it said 100% ceramic with Tourmaline coating got my attention. So should i trust that it's 100% ceramic, even though i got it for a REALLY great deal? The original price for my flat iron was between $100-$200. I also found some research about the tourmaline that they mentioned.
What is Tourmaline?
Tourmaline is a precious stone that possesses unique ionic and infrared properties. The presence of Tourmaline mineral guarantees unsurpassed performance to make the SCP High Performance Tourmaline Ceramic Iron totally unique in it's class. The secret is the use of this very expensive, natural emitter of negative ions and infrared heat, working like a magnet, Tourmaline is the strongest, longest lasting source available. Negative ions close the cuticle layer to create a smooth, silky hair surface and seal in the hair’s natural moisture. This provides ultimate shine, colour and moisture protection, and also eliminate static electricity on the hair surface so hair is left silky and frizz-free! A precious stone, Tourmaline works by itself, just like a magnet. It naturally emits the most negative ions and infrared heat possible. This means you get the best results, and the silkiest, shiniest, healthiest hair imaginable. Guaranteed.
Why isn’t Ceramic enough?
Traditional ceramic irons rely on heat alone which risks damage to the hair. SCP relies on ionic and infrared juices, which provides a better, healthier method.

Why are negative ions important when using a hair iron?
Negative ions close the cuticle layer to create a smooth, silky hair surface and seal in the hair’s natural moisture. This provides ultimate shine, colour and moisture protection for hair. Negative Irons also eliminate static electricity on the hair surface so hair is left silky and frizz-free![/size][/size][/font]
