Is it possible to use a hair straigthener to press buds?

Does it work? Wanted to put the hash concentrate in my vape pen, but have no resin press. Was wondering if I could use a piece of paper and a hair straigthener to press together some good resin

Can't hurt to try!

I’ve only done it pressing flower into rosin, but if you use parchment paper, it should work the same—I’m only guessing here, though. The yields weren’t spectacular, and I couldn’t control temperature, but it did work. Just press small amounts at a time and it helps if you use a c-clamp to apply the pressure as the straightener gets hot when holding it down like that. I did it this way with flower a few times before I decided to pick up a cheap rosin press. The toughest part was trying to keep the flower from slipping out the side (I didn’t have bags yet).

need more specifics on this "hash concentrate" and its purity.

When pressing hash/sift i use a bag to press, and be prepared to lose some in that process.
