I have this weird gunk on my straightner from straightning my hair daily.

Is there any way to clean it? I tried cleaning it with a soaked cloth & it got lighter but the grease didnt come off. Any ways on how to clean a straightner? Thnks! 💋

You could probably use some nail polish remover as well.

I use a wash cloth soaked in a bit of soap and water. I recommend reading to see how your straightener advises you to clean it because Alcohol can strip off the material pretty badly.

Hot Tools makes a cleaning solution for your hairstyling tools. It's $5 or $6 at Ulta. Works great! Just make sure you follow the instructions on the bottle.
