How does the L’Oréal STeampod work?
The L’Oréal STeampod uses a continuous steam flow, a comb, and heated plates to style your hair. The comb separates the strand while the plates smooth it. The result: soft, shiny lengths that fall smoothly around your face.
The difference with regular straighteners lies in this combination. STeampod straighteners release steam from water in the built-in reservoir. You gently glide the tool through a strand while the comb guides the hair. Especially if you have thick hair, good sectioning makes styling easier to manage.
The L’Oréal STeampod is part of the professional styling tools from L’Oréal Professionnel. Besides the tool, use care products suited to your lengths: heat protection before styling and a small amount of treatment for ends that need extra attention.
Which hair type calls for what approach?
Fine or coloured hair:low heat setting and carefully applied heat protection.
Thick, natural hair:small sections to ensure even styling for each strand.
Curly or frizzy hair: detangle well first and use the appropriate comb.
What’s the difference between the STeampod 3.0 and 4.0?
The difference between the L’Oréal STeampod 3.0 and 4.0 is mainly in design and curl options. The newer model has wider plates, a slimmer, rounder shape, and three interchangeable combs. This makes it easier to style roots and switch between straight hair and curls.
If you usually wear your hair straight with occasional soft waves, the STeampod 3.0 steam straightener suits your style. Want well-defined curls? The STeampod 4.0 steam straightener supports this with a heated outer side that guides your hair during curling.
Both versions have a built-in water reservoir and three heat settings from 180 to 210 °C. The newer model also lets you choose a comb for straight to wavy, curly, or very curly to frizzy hair. This ensures the steam spreads evenly over your strand.
How do you use an STeampod?
Use the L’Oréal STeampod on fully dry, detangled hair. First apply heat protection, blow-dry your hair, and divide it into small sections. Fill the reservoir with demineralised water and position the arrows on the tool pointing toward your hair ends while styling.
Apply the STeampod Smoothing Treatment from L’Oréal Professionnel before blow-drying. Use one pump for fine hair. For long, thick hair, two to three pumps work best. Apply the serum pump by pump on towel-dried lengths and ends; do not rinse out.
Set your tool to 180 °C for fine, sensitive, coloured, or bleached hair. Higher settings suit thick, natural hair. For the fourth generation, use the protective caps over the heated outer side when straightening.
With some practice, you’ll become an STeampod pro: start at the bottom, clip the upper layers up, and work your way upward. Glide each strand through the tool in a smooth, continuous motion. This way you see which sections are done and avoid unnecessary repeats. Take your time mastering the movement. Let curls cool before loosening them with your fingers.
Buy your L’Oréal STeampod at haarspullen.nl
At haarspullen.nl, choose your L’Oréal STeampod as a standalone tool or combined with matching care. Already have a heat protector you love? Then buying the tool solo makes sense. If you’re new to this styling method, a duo pack combines tool and care.
The STeampod 4.0 + Smoothing Treatment Duo pairs the tool with the protective serum. Within the L’Oréal sets you’ll also find other haircare combinations. Always check the contents of a set: a styling tool with serum serves a different purpose than shampoo and conditioner.
Choose your L’Oréal STeampod based on the hairstyle you want and add what you’re missing. Is your tool still working well but you’re out of care? You can buy STeampod products separately to refill just the serum.

Frequently Asked Questions about L’Oréal Steampod
Want to find out which version suits your hair and how to style with it? Below you’ll find answers to frequently asked questions about the tools and care.
Which L’Oréal Steampod suits me?
Which L’Oréal Steampod suits you mainly depends on the looks you want to create. If you want mostly straight hair or loose waves, then the Steampod 3.0 is a good choice. If you also want to easily create defined curls, then look at the L’Oréal Steampod 4.0 with its rounder shape and curl locking guide. This way you choose your Steampod straightener based on your desired styling.
How do you use a Steampod for straight hair, waves or curls?
You always use a Steampod on dry, detangled hair for straight hair, waves or curls. For straight hair, gently glide the L’Oréal Steampod from roots to ends. For waves or curls, place a small strand between the plates, twist the tool and slowly move downwards. Work in sections and choose a temperature that suits your hair type and hair condition.
Can you use tap water in a Steampod?
No, use demineralised water in your Steampod, because tap water contains lime which can build up in the device and cause malfunctions. Fill the reservoir before you start styling and only add demineralised water. You can find demineralised water at a chemist or supermarket; make sure it contains no perfume or other additives.
