Someone posted a thread a while ago of a barber burning hair as a form of hair straightening (I think?). Personally, I would think it would cause more damage than just a good sharp pair of scissor.
I stumbled across this local salon that does this Thermocut, where they heat the scissors and it "seals" the ends and supposedly prevents split ends. They also do a split end treatment by twisting the hair and burning the ends sticking out (presumably mostly splits) with a candle flame.
Im not considering going there but found it interesting and was curious to see what people's thoughts are on this. Has anyone heard of or seen anything like it? Any scientific merrit to it?

I've heard of the candle flame method, and while I don't have any scientific proof of this, I feel like it would not work the way they say it does at all. Putting a flame on your hair does NOT sound very healthy to me. Heat tools damage your hair because of the temperature, how would a candle flame be any different? Even if that method does work, I would never try it because it just sounds terrifying haha. If anyone wants to argue my opinion, feel free

I can't see how that wouldn't be damaging. The heated scissors I can see the logic behind, theoretically it could cauterize the end. But the open candle flame idea makes me cringe.
