Abstract
A hair straightener includes a first arm with a first hair contact surface such as a first plate, and a second arm with a second hair contact surface such as a second plate. The second arm is coupled for movement towards the first arm. The first and second hair contact surfaces are configured to capture a tress of hair between them when the first and second arms are moved towards each other in use. The first hair contact surface defines a series of tress-corralling recesses disposed along its length, and the second hair contact surface does not define a tress-corralling recess or defines shallower tress-corralling recesses than those of the first plate.
