The flat iron is perfect! I loved it! I have probably the craziest hair in the world and this flat iron did wonders on my hair! The shipping is soo fast, I received it the next day!

Product Rating: 5 Wow, Nice Flat Iron
Reviewer: Patti from Okemos, MI  Thu Jul 19 2007

I have heard of this brand flat iron in the past but never wanted to spend the money. I decided to give it a try and I am very impressed. It heats up very fast! Use care not to burn your hair. I love it. I give this one two thumbs up definitely. It also included a pouch which is very nice too.

Product Rating: 5 2 inch CHI Ceramic Flat Iron (Turbo)
Reviewer: anonymous   Tue Jul 17 2007

I have long, thick, wavy hair and could not find a product that would straighten it without taking a ton of time. I purchased the 2" CHI in hopes to cut down on time and endless amounts of money on other products. The Turbo has been wonderful to me, as well as my hair! Now it only takes half of the time to get my desired look. I am very impressed with this product.

Product Rating: 4 Product works well
Reviewer: Gina from Atlanta  Tue Jul 17 2007

The Chi FlatIron performs as it claims. It's a great straightener. The Chi takes my hair from naturally wavy/curly to silky straight with minimal effort. What I love most about this flatiron is that it takes relatively no time for it to go from cold (off) to hot (on!).

My only wish: that the barrel/flatiron part was longer.

Product Rating: 5 Chi 2-inch flat iron.
Reviewer: Cynthia from Palm Desert, CA  Mon Jul 16 2007

I love my flat iron! My hair is long and thick/coarse. This straightens my hair in seconds. It heats up quickly and I don't have to run it over my hair again and again to get the straightness that I want. Literally, it takes minutes to do my whole head of hair. I am completely satisfied with my purchase.

Product Rating: 5 I love the CHI
Reviewer: Massiel Martinez from Miami  Mon Jul 16 2007

I love the CHI!! I've had CHI irons since I was 15...I am 21 now so you can obviously tell it works great! I decided to get the 2 inch turbo CHI because it holds more hair making it a quicker process.....I have curly hair and the CHI leaves my hair super straight!! It is a great investment for any hair type...straigt hair, cury hair, nappy hair etc.... The only iron I have seen leave hair straight not to mention that every good salon owns a CHI!

Product Rating: 5 AMAZiNG TO ME.
Reviewer: Cecilia from California  Fri Jun 15 2007

So I just started using my chi and already I am so satisfied. It takes me 20 minutes to straighten my thick and long hair. it used to take me at least 40minutes. it makes my hair shine, soft, and really straight. I love it and it was totally worth the money.

Product Rating: 5 AWESOME
Reviewer: Ashley Rodgers   Wed Jun 13 2007

I have super curly, thick, long, frizzy hair and it works amazing. I've used alot of other straightners but none of them have worked near as well. Love It!

Product Rating: 3 Bad News
Reviewer: Dee Dee from Florida  Wed Jun 06 2007

I bought this straightner for my daughter for Christmas. Yesterday she told me it's not working any more - less than 6 months for a $100+ straightner - this makes me upset. She has long thick hair and used it often which is why I went online to find a good one. I read a few bad reviews before I bought it and guess I should have realized it good happen to me too.

Product Rating: 2 Stops working after 8 months
Reviewer: Mare V from Philadelphia, PA  Tue May 29 2007

As several of the reviews already mentioned - the CHI worked great when I first received it. I used Hot Tools before then, and the CHI worked wonders in comparison. However, I've only had my CHI for about 8 months and it just stopped working well this past weekend - it just doesn't get as hot as before. I tried it again the next day and it still didn't work. Not acceptable considering how much you pay for it. So now I bought a Sedu flat iron and expect it to arrive shortly - it actually has much better reviews and many people who were disappointed in the CHI are very happy with the Sedu.

Product Rating: 5 CHI = Love
Reviewer: Samantha from Texas  Sun May 27 2007

I have had my 2" CHI since my junior year in high school and I am now a junior in high school. I LOVE IT and I use it all the time. It never damages my hair and it makes it gorgeous and shiny. I dropped mine today from the top of the stairs, and it broke so now I'm ordering a new one. But I would highly recommend it. I LOVE IT!

Product Rating: 5 I love my CHI
Reviewer: Shannon Burns from Bound Brook, NJ  Fri May 25 2007

I have VERY CURLY hair no other flat iron worked as well as the CHI I tryed hot tool and the results where OK but nothing like the CHI

Product Rating: 5 the best flat iron you can buy
Reviewer: Denise from Jim Thorpe, PA USA  Tue Apr 24 2007

This is my 2nd CHI iron and I love it. It does not damage your hair and actually makes you hair appear healthier and shiny. I recently traveled to Thailand and left one with my friends because they loved it so much. A great product and a great price. It's worth every penny you spend on it!

Product Rating: 5 CHI Ceramic 2" Flat Iron
Reviewer: Margaret from Florida  Tue Apr 24 2007

Within 2 weeks of purchasing this flat iron it died. The manufacturer would not replace it because I did not buy it an authorized salon. I called Folica and they did replace it, however they charged me $9.95 to do so.
As far as the product is concerned, it works really well!!!

Product Rating: 5 Best Straightening Iron
Reviewer: Leslie from Chicago, IL  Tue Apr 24 2007

This is by far the best straightening iron. I have been using it for two years. Unfortunately my first iron broke and I ordered the Chi Turbo from Folica.com this time around. My hair is very thick and very frizzy, this iron really does the trick. I would recommend it to anyone, and I do.

Product Rating: 4 Easy to use
Reviewer: Rochelle Keeling from Louisiana  Tue Apr 24 2007

This product is quick, hot and does the job right. Last all day.

Product Rating: 5 Quick Straightening
Reviewer: Rita Harris   Mon Apr 23 2007

My hairdresser suggested this product and I am very happy with it. My thick, dark , frizzy wavy, long hair can be straightened perfectly in 15 mins!!

Product Rating: 5 Great product
Reviewer: Nestor   Thu Apr 19 2007

My wife just loves it. I love it because is more quiet than the hair dryer.

Product Rating: 4 I enjoyed it while it lasted...
Reviewer: Theresa S. from Riverside, CA  Sat Apr 14 2007

I have thick and very long hair and my 2" CHI worked wonders at getting it silky straight. If you are looking for a flat iron, this one definitely works. It heats up quickly and does the job very quickly!
However, here are my two complaints....
- Don't try and use big sections at a time, the ends of the plates will snag and pull out your hair. As long as you use smaller sections, you will be fine.
-My CHI worked for exactly one year and 2 months. I do use it pretty much every single day but, for being as expensive as it is, I would have expected it to last much longer.
So now I'm in the market for a new flat iron. I think I'm going to try the Sedu, it has some great reviews.
Don't get me wrong, you will love the look of your hair after using the CHI, I would just like one that lasts more than a year of use.

Product Rating: 2 CHI WAS A CHRISTMAS GIFT, DOES NOT WORK NOW
Reviewer: Rougemont, NC   Mon Apr 09 2007

I was afraid of this, and it has happened. Gave the 2" chi to my neice for a Christmas gift. She loved it and it worked fine until today. Just got an email from my sister asking for the receipt, becuase the Chi Turbo 2" stopped working. I checked to make sure they found the reset button, and they did. It was tried several times, and they even tried different electrical outlets. Now after looking at the return policy, the $130.00 I spent is water down the drain. I am now looking at the Solia becuase I have not seen any issues like the problems with the Chi.
