Product Rating: 5 Chi Ceramic Flat Iron

Chi is the BEST Flat Iron on the market. The others can't compare. Hair looks professionally done every time! Cost on your website beats the retail stores. Won't go back to the any other irons.

I ordered it in october and loved it. I am quite afraid of it breaking though, i've read some "this thing breaks reviews" and I rely on this thing!
It takes me about 25 minutes to straighten my insanely curly shoulder blade length hair. It does leave my hair a tad frizzy with some fly aways but that is easily fixed with the Chi Silk Infusion Serum and Sebastian Threads gel (amazing go get it!!!) The only thing though is sometimes it makes my bangs feel a little greasy but that might just be my imagination ;) Love the product and I love how lightweight and thin it is.

Product Rating: 5 WOW!!!

First of all, let me say that NO ONE should ever buy a cheap drug store flat iron. They'll destroy ANY kind of hair. People w/thin hair are NOT blessed. My sister has incredibly thin hair and so does my best friend. It may SEEM like it makes styling easier, but they have just as many problems as we do with our thick hair. That said, I LOVE Chi flat irons. Everyone should own one. My hair dresser has three of them and she's used all of them on my hair SEVERAL times. She could straighten it comepletely in about 10-15 minutes, and my hair was down to my rear end! I just recently got it all chopped off. The Chi makes it so easy to flip out my ends, straighten it comepletely flat, or even give my crown some height when I need it. I had an "upper scale" department store model that I paid almost $70 for that did "OK", but after years of wishing I had a Chi, I'm finally biting the bullet and buying one for myself. My old one cost me a lot of extra money getting my hair trimmed more often because of the damage, and that's WITH a thermal styling spray, which you should ALWAYS use. I wouldn't buy anything other than the Chi. I've used other stylists who've used other irons and I prefer the results I get when my stylist uses her Chi. Everything you buy has the potential to malfunction. I'm the queen of complaining. I've learned that calling or writing to the company can go a long way, or even just saving your receipt and speaking to the manager in the store where you buy things can help. It doesn't hurt to try. Also, I always check to see if things have a warranty. I called my stylist today. It costs the salons $120+ to order this model and have it shipped to them and they get a stylist's discount! It's worth it to buy one here, I think. I can't wait until mine arrives!!! The first pic was a couple years ago. That's my natural curl. The second pic was the day I had my hair cut and straightened with my stylist's Chi.

Product Rating: 3 Failed to Impress....
Reviewer: Anonymous   Tue Jul 17 2007

A few years ago, I would've been thrilled to have this straightener. However, my Chi failed to impress me.

I used to own a Sedu and I loved it. I used it everyday on my thick very curly hair and it never damaged and always stayed smooth and straight. After going through three Wal-Mart straighteners it was a miracle. Then when it broke after two years of use, my mother ordered me this Chi straightener.

It seems to do a fairly good job at first, but it takes all of the volume out of my hair. Even worse, it takes me ten minutes longer than my Sedu did, my hair ALWAYS begins to curl just fifteen minutes after I straighten it even with a generous amount of product (touch-ups are little help), and my hair tends to feel slightly damaged after each use.

I gave Chi a chance but I think I'm ready to go back to my Sedu. It's an okay straightener, but it's no miracle.

I recently went on a cruise and left my chi iron. I was so upset when I realized what I had done. I have never felt so much withdrawal from the loss of a hair styler. :) I have naturally curly hair and this iron is the only one that can straighten my hair to my liking. I am purchasing the original chi value pack from the website right after this review. I promise you won't be disappointed and you will be a "CHI ADDICT" for life if you purchase one!

Product Rating: 5 It's great.

I love this product, but mine doesn't have a reset button it just comes as a switch, I am afraid if it stops working then I won't even be able to restart.
I use the Chi straigtner with the biosilk serum it works great and I love the way my hair smells. You should only buy this product if you have thick/coarse/curly hair because it heats up very well.
If you have thin hair any more wal-mart brand would do. Buying the Chi will only make your hair thinner and burnt.

Reviewer: Annie   Fri Mar 21 2008

When I first bought a chi I LOVED it! But it broke after a couple months. It had a short in the cord and stopped working. Then I went back and bought a new one and I've only had it a year or so and the on/off button stopped working. I didn't "abuse" my straightner. I don't know why they kept breaking. It was too expensive and worked awesome. I love the way it worked but not if I have to spend money every 6 months to buy a new one.

Product Rating: 5 Can't go anywhere without my CHI flat iron!
Reviewer: Kate from Houston, TX  Thu Mar 20 2008

I bought my first CHI flat iron about 5 years ago and was literally attached to it. I packed it with me on every trip no matter where I go. It makes my hair from super frizzy to super straight, shiny and sleek. I used to straight perm my hair before, but with the CHI flat iron and a little time, I can save some extra bucks on going to a hair salon. You need to use some hair serum to smooth it out though if your hair is coarse like mine. Get the hair serum from FrizzEase at Walmart or Target. It works just fine, and you don't need to spend a lot of money on expensive products. The cord recently got loose, and the iron didn't heat up as good as it used to be, so I've just ordered a new one from Folica. I know the heat proof pouch will really come in handy on my next trip as I always had to wait for the iron to cool down after each use before pack it in my suitcase. I notice the new iron does not heat up as hot as my previous one so it takes a little longer to straighten my hair every morning, but other than that, it works fine. I hope it will last another 5 years or so...

Reviewer: Paula from Central Texas  Mon Mar 17 2008

This is the BEST of the best. Well worth the money. Heats in seconds. Adds shine to hair and makes it soft. Turns the roughest, driest hair into silky soft. Makes curliest hair smooth!! Don't hesitate to buy.

Product Rating: 5 AMAZING!
Reviewer: Darcie from Hamilton ON  Sun Mar 16 2008

at first i had to get used to it since it was a much better straightener than i had before...but now i got the hang of it and I LOVE IT!!! its so easy to straighten my hair in the morning now and very quick too!! :)

Product Rating: 5 Love It!!!
Reviewer: Aimee from Kentucky  Sat Mar 08 2008

My sister and I both have very curly frizzy hair, she had a CHI and gave it to me to try. I absolutely loved it.No more frizz!! One mornig when I was straightening my hair my dog got caught in the cord and pulled it to the floor and the plates popped off. (I think my puppy just wanted to give it a try too since she saw how well it worked on me) Anyways, I ordered a new CHI and it is just as great as my last. They are very much worth the price. They last forever; unless your puppy wants to use it!!

Product Rating: 5 Great product!
Reviewer: Amy L. from NY  Fri Mar 07 2008

This is the best straightener I have ever had. My hair stylist actually told me about the CHI. CHI is my new best friend! AND i got it for a great price. I only paid $80.00 on this site with no shipping and handling. I saw the same CHI in a store at the mall and it was OVER $120.00! Def. a great deal! I'm very happy with my purchase and I would recommend the CHI to everybody. Oh and the CHI also heats up REALLY fast! within seconds!

It works really well!! I love mine...and I got it at such a cheaper price rather than going to a professional salon. Does the same thing!!

Product Rating: 5 rebecca from Oklahoma...wtf?
Reviewer: Carly from LosAngeles  Fri Mar 07 2008

I'm not sure what this girl did to her hair but this is NOT the result of a properly used CHI flat iron!! I am a stylist and after trying MANY flat irons, I always go back to the CHI. I style all different kinds of hair, color treated, etc. and I have NEVER seen a CHI do this to hair. It was most likely used incorrectly...i.e. on wet hair maybe? I have only raves for CHI!

Product Rating: 2 Will fry hair after prolonged use!
Reviewer: Grace   Sat Mar 01 2008

OK, when i first got my chi(over a year ago) i absolutely loved it. but after a few months of using it, my hair was constantly split, fried, and broken even when i deep-conditioned, used protector spray, and took really good care of it. Now, if i don't get my hair cut really frequently or not straighten it (which looks horrible!), my hair is murdered. I seriously want a new straightener because my chi makes my hair look horrible.
