Product Rating: 5 Unruly hair
Reviewer: Jeanie from Florida  Fri Jan 06 2006

I have the most unruly fuzziest hair of any person I have ever met. To make matters worse.......I live in a very humid state. My youngest daughter introduced me to the Chi last summer when I went to visit her. I assured her that it wouldn't work on my hair, but sat down and she worked with my hair. I couldn't believe it, it took just a few seconds for it to heat up and my whole head of hair was finished in about 10 minutes. I woke up the next day and it was still straight. I got on the airplane and came back to Florida and it was still straight. I knew then that I had to purchase one for myself. Now when I don't straighten my hair with the Chi and go curly or should I say fuzzy everyone thinks I got a perm. I love it. Thank you so much for this incredible invention. I wish I had a photo to share with you.

I have never been so pissed. I spent almost 200 dollars on a chi, and it broke within 2 months! I decided to do the garantee and buy a Sedu, and it was amazing! The same results, except shinier and softer, cheeper and more durable! Trust me, don't get the chi.

Chi has done miracles to my hair. I absolutely love it. It works soo fast and soo well compared to other irons I have used. Everyone should have this iron, it heats up soo fast and the results are fantastic!

Product Rating: 1 Great at first but then
Reviewer: Jenne from Seattle, WA  Wed Nov 30 2005

Now I have curly, curly, curly hair. I participated in Farouk (Makers of Chi products) show at the Discover show in St. Louis and when you first get that iron it is amazing. Pin straight hair, great edges. Now here is the bad news, when you step outside, or touch your hair too much, it starts frizzing and getting nasty. Any humidity and your done. Also, over time the wires come loose and it will start shutting itself off. Be careful with this product, it can fool you.

One weekend i used my friend's chi and at that moment i saw an amazing difference, and every other straightener i had ever tried was not even comparable. I just ordered my chi after using my friends for the third time... it is the most amazing straightener and makes my hair silky smooth. This picture is of my hair after already sleeping on it in the humid houston weather.

Product Rating: 5 chi is great and would recommend to anyone!
Reviewer: elizabeth from Beaumont, Texas  Wed Nov 09 2005

i really debated about buying an iron so expensive, but i took the risk. i first purchased a two inch chi iron, but returned it because it did not get close enough to my roots. i then got the chi iron one inch and have been using it since. i love it! it stays hot and works so well with the biosilk silk therapy. it used to take me almost two hours to straighten my hair, but now it only takes me forty five minutes. i don't even have to go back and restaighten my hair again and again.
thanks chi

Reviewer: Em from WA  Thu Oct 13 2005

SOooo i have semi frizzy hair and i had just let my friends color it. TURNED black, and i'm a natural blond...so u can imagine my shock! Anyways after all the time and fryng used to make my hair back to normal, my hair way completley fried. Every inch of it was horrible! I purshased the CHI straightener and my hair is soft and silky everyday. I kid you not, you wouldn't think its the same hair!! it heats up and cools down so fast i don't have to worry about how long it will take! Its a dream come true, if it can make my hair soft it can make anyones....TRUST me!

Reviewer: Sierra from Texas  Sat Sep 24 2005

We bought a CHI from a salon in Austin and after 3 days of use only one plate would work!So basically you can only fry one side of your hair at a time! We tried to return it but the salon had a no return policy. We bought another one and it just fried our hair the more we used it (3 months). We are going to buy a Sedu soon so thats what I recomend right now.

Product Rating: 5 FANTASTIC IRON
Reviewer: Tina from gautier mississippi  Fri Sep 16 2005

My hair was so frizzy and is very thick and dry, my hair dresser used the iron on my hair and it looks totally different, the trick to have long lasting soft hair is to spray biosilk on your hair while using the iron and it stays soft and flat for days

Product Rating: 2 CHI original hair straightener
Reviewer: anonymous from Houston, TX  Sun Aug 28 2005

I have had my CHI now over a year. It worked great until the swivel cord connector inside the unit failed. I am still looking for replacement parts. I paid $160 and I would not recomend buying this.

Product Rating: 5 The CHI Flatiron is the BEST!
Reviewer: Holly from Washington, DC  Tue Aug 23 2005

I borrowed my sister's CHI 1" Flatiron and I let ALL of my friends, boss, and other ladies in my building try it! We all love it so much and at least 10 more people are going out to buy them because they loved my hair and loved theirs when they tried it! I would recommend this straightener to anyone and it is definitely well worth the money! My sister has had hers for 6 months and it is still working great! I gotta say though, even if it did break down every six months it is worth the money to replace it. I have naturally wavy hair so I can scrunch it and make it curly or use a brush to blow it out with a hairdryer, but the CHI makes my hair look an inch longer and so smooth even in the summer heat and humidity!

If you are thinking of buying a CHI, think no more! It is the best flatiron out there!

I'm a stylist and I absolutely love the CHI flat iron! Not only do I use it on my beloved clients, but I have a personal attachment to this useful tool. This flat iron is distinctive because the plate is so smooth. The iron heats up within seconds, unlike others where you have to wait 2-3 minutes and even then it's just warm. This iron gets REALLY HOT and I love it! It's gotten the most resistant, natural, kinky, and rough hair types/textures beautiful, silk, soft, and shiny results. I love that you can get so close to the scalp. And once you become skilled with it, it gives you great body and curls! I highligh recommend! I've used on Asian, Caucasian, and I am African American. It works on both relaxed and natural virgin hair (no color/no chemicals) Great if you just want to keep your hair natural but you want to wear it safe. No need to relax with this handy dandy flat iron! Just be sure to let hair safely air dry or go under the hooded dryer or blow dry hair with hand blow-dryer before you start ironing!

I love my CHI. But for those who have trouble read my tips on the Advice page.

Product Rating: 5 Love it!
Reviewer: Anne Conway from Northern Virginia  Wed Jul 06 2005

My hair has never looked better... Where was this when I was 16???? I get compliments on my hair all the time now.
I have a new relationship with my hair now.
I am saving my receipt- just in case it breaks-
I might even by a back up.

Product Rating: 2 Breaks In Less Than A Year!
Reviewer: amy from New Orleans  Wed Jun 29 2005

I loved the CHI when I first got it, but after 8 months, it all of a sudden stopped working. The only way it will turn on is if I push down towards the left end of one of the plates with my fingers. Once I stop holding it down with my fingers, it turns off. How nice... I would have to burn my fingers to turn on the iron; very nice... NOT! DO NOT BUY A CHI!! I just ordered a SEDU 1.5" iron. According to the SEDU's reviews, I think I'm going to like it much better than the CHI, and it will most likely last longer than the CHI.

Product Rating: 3 CHI - not for me
Reviewer: Laura from Southfield, MI  Wed Jun 29 2005

I'm an African American with natural (4a/b - curly/kinky) hair. I press my hair every two weeks and thought the CHI would work great for me. I bought it, but unfortunately had to return it. Why? Because it didn't have HEAT settings. There is no way I can use a flat iron that doesn't have heat settings. I was soooo afraid of scorching my hair. Now I will say that the CHI obviously does straighten well. But if you're worried about heat damage...don't buy this iron. I decided on the Sedu 1.5 inch instead. Just got it in today from Folica. I'll let you all know how it goes.

Product Rating: 1 Do NOT purchase any CHI product!!
Reviewer: Cassie   Thu Jun 16 2005

This is a warning to ALL CONSUMERS!!

I have worked for Farouk Systems and let me tell you, we kept a log (of over 400 a day) of consumers who's CHI dryer/iron have broken. And when you call they say, "You'll have to send your iron to the Houston location and send a check of $15..." all this CAN BE WAIVED if you keep whining! A consumer shouldn't pay anything if it's a manufacture defect!!! Well, of course, I worked for them, so I couldn't say anything.

All CHI products (meaning DRYERS and IRONS) are not worth what they cost! Material is made from China! Cheap! Plates also!

Do NOT purchase a CHI iron because it WILL break in a short perion of time (and I'm not talking about a year, I'm talking about a month... if you're luck to last that long.) What the company wants is a magical iron to straighten the hair and when it breaks, you'll buy it because it does wonders. And Yes... it does.

The Manager of Customers Service is PAULA... she's only 28 years old! Young! She doesn't know anything about real customer service. This company is VERY fake and unfortunately, I worked there. I quit and went to Hewlet Packard and at least here, their stuff works until about 2 or 3 years. Oh yeah, computers are also being built to last 2 years... because they company loses money when they are durable and no one keeps buying. So, it's just an UNFAIR business.
