This straightener was great. It heats up really quickly & straightens my curly thick hair right away. The straighten even holds up in humidity & mist! I highly reccomend it to anyone who wants to get the job done quick and fast. The porcelian plate also made my hair smooth & shiny!
Do not buy

This straightener has ruined my hair. I can tell you honestly that it has burned the ends of my hair so badly that I can not even straighten my hair anymore. The salon refused to blow dry my hair because it is so damaged from this!!! DO NOT BUY THIS
What a disappointment!

I bought this hair straightener for my daughter for Christmas after reading all of the great reviews. She hasn't even had it a month and it scorched her hair and stopped working. Don't waste the money!
An excellent Purchase

The same thing happened to me as did to one of the other ladies who posted on here. Within 1 year, the heating dock broke - for no reason. When it did work, it worked well... but for $80+ it should last more than a year!
Beautiful,shiny hair... I'm getting one today!!!

My daughters hair is a mixture of black and korean, thick with tight curls. I usually wash and air dry it and it is a hot mess when its dry.went to the beauty supply to try and use jumbo rollers to roller set it and came in contact with a student beautician from the school next door. After a conversating I asked if she could do my daughers hair. Well was I supprised to see my baby hair look so pretty, shiny, and full of bounce! She started flat ironing it and it was just gliding over her hair like swooooosh,bamm... I was like for reals..it's like that! I asked what did you put in her hair? she said nothing I'm just using this flat Iron that they included in our beauty kit." It was the Babyliss pro. I asked the instructor where can I find it and she anywhere online just type in the name. So here I am today ordering one. My daughter has really band split ends because her hair is so curly I breaks when I come it out after leaving it curly. Her hair needs to be straight to manage and a perm is not even an option. She doesn't need one,teture of hair is good. So for all the people writing the negative reviews on this product, are you sure you know what you are doing? or are you being hateful because you can't do it. I saw the product work and I am amazed at it. As for how long it lasts, if it works that good on her hair for 1 year I count myslf fortunate cause that's one year without fighting with those horrible tangles, and just so you know I'm used to dealing with nappy hair not tangled and and thick. Ooh yeah this morning it was laid flatter today than it was yesterday. S, you know she think she's extra beautiful right now!!!! she's a hot mess.... Thank you babyliss for a wonderful product.
Got the job done, but not my favorite iron.

I have naturally wavy hair and this iron certainly got the job done, although I always had little stray hairs standing up on the top of my head, as if there were a static problem. I had to lay on the product pretty thick after to make them stay down. The iron is rather heavy, which I didn't think about when purchasing. I thought the wider plates would make for shorter straightening time. For me, it was actually harder to handle.
IS A GOOD PRODUCT

i have gone through 3 hair straighteners and now i am looking for my 4th!!
i started with a conair and it did not straighten my hair at all...then i decided to buy this babyliss one for $80 and at first i thought it worked well but then my hair became damaged by it. After exactly one year it would not heat up even when the green light was on and it was plugged in, so i complained to the company and they shipped me a new one and that took about two weeks. About 3 weeks ago my STRAIGHTNER BROKE AGAIN having it for only a year..and the same thing happened just like the last one..and i give up on getting another. They only last for a year!! DONT BUY IT IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY. Now i am leaning toward a Sedu ..which will hopefully work and last longer!
Great Product

Dries out my hair a bit more than my last one, but is definitely one of the better straighteners on the market. Really powerful. Could straighten any type of hair.
I love it...

I'm a beginner to straightening my hair....this worked pretty well with Dudley's Pressing Creme. It made my 4b/c hair silky straight after I blowdried my hair out.
It heats up really quick too!
great

I am really content with this product. My hair is straighter. My other hair straighteners were not able to do that. Also I can do my whole head in less than 5 minutes whereas before I had to go over my work again just to get it straighter. one thing I didn't like, the temperature botton is a little small to read when adjusting. I wish it was located at another place on the ironer. But besides that, I highly recommend this product!!
I love my new Iron

I especially love how quickly it heats up. I don't have to wait a half hour to use it. The pad that goes with it is perfect.
Happy!

This is a great straightener and the wide plates allow me to straighten my long hair in minutes! It does a great job and my hair is straight and shiny since I got it! To get such great results in such little time is so worth it!
THE BEST IRON EVER!!! :)

I FIRST DECIDED TO PURCHASE THIS IRON WHEN ONE OF MY FRIENDS PURCHASED THE IRON AND I SAW HER NAPPY HAIR WAS SUPER STRAIGHT!I HAVE NOW HAD IT FOR 4 YEARS. I HAVE BOUGHT 3 OF THEM, THE FIRST ONE BROKE BECAUSE MY FRIEND LEFT IT ON SO I THEN PURCHASED 2 MORE, ONE FOR ME AND ONE FOR MY FRIEND. ITS BEEN 2 YEARS LATER AND I USE THE IRON ATLEAST 2 TO 3 TIMES A WEEK AND IT'S ALWAYS LIKE THE FIRST TIME! IT DOES PULL YOUR HAIR IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE IT! I RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT TO EVERYONE AND SINCE THE FIRST TIME I BOUGHT IT I'VE HAD 5 OTHER FRIENDS PURCHASE IT AS WELL.. :)
