i needed a new hair straightner so i when i was at the mall i saw it and the movies they had looked great. then the guy did it on my hair and it looked great. i am very gullable so i bout it for 315 dollars. i feel like an idiot. after like 1-2 weeks it starts damaging your hair and when u go to straighten your hair its all weird. oneday in the morning it fell off my table and the iron plate fell out. i have dropped soo many things and they never break this easily. i am about to take it back to see if i can get anything back. they say no refunds so i hope to get atleast an exchange. i thought this would work perfectly but it didnt so DONT BUY IT. i would recommend the sedu. im about to buy one becasue there was not one bad review on it.
Can I say GODSEND?

I've used this once on my hair and it worked great! I have long, frizzy hair, and this iron really smoothed it all out. It felt really soft, and was stick straight. My ends actually smoothed down as well, and didn't look as damaged as they usually do. I almost couldn't believe how glossy and fluffy my hair felt. It's definitely worth it. My only concern is if it will damage my hair over time, but then, all styling has an affect on hair, so I'm investing in this iron.
Excelente

Te deja un look de salon de belleza, no tuve que usar ningun producto (cremas o cosas asi) para usarla. NO recomiendo que la usen todos los dias o muy seguido porque el calor excesivo hace daño al cabello. Usela para ocasiones especiales o 2 veces al mes.
The best flat iron!!!!

I love this flat iron. My hair is fine and very curly. My mom bought me this flat iron as a gift for my birthday and I totally love it. After I wash my hair, I let it dry a little bit and then straighten it with the flat iron. My hair looks smooth and frizz free. I live in a tropical island where rains a lot and the humidity level is almost 100% and my hair looks frizz free every time. Many people confront problems with frizz hair because they don’t completely dry it from root to tips. Hint: when drying your hair don’t put any leave-in conditioners or sprays, this will help you dry your hair quicker and avoid any frizz.

I recently purchased the Corioliss wet/dry flat iron from an upscale mall and was so excited about it!!!!! I didn't realize until I got home that it has NO TEMP CONTROL so it heats EVERY TIME to 410 dangerous degrees!!!!!!
I don't think there is a hair professional out there that would recommend that temp for REGULAR USE on anyone...especially on color treated hair.
I tried to return within 24 hours of purchase and was refused a refund b/c all sales are final? This was unused with a receipt and return within a day. Purchased from an upscale mall kiosk....spoke with sales at kiosk, patronizing management on phone and another magager on the phone. These are franchises, the people think they have 'all the answers' and won't consider cutomer concerns.
My question to the potentail buyer is this...
Why (if this is such a great product) are all sales final? Not another store I know of has an all sales final policy unless there is a big sign saying so (close out whatever). This kiosk had it written in tiny print behind the register covered with products and tiny print on the receipt. I asked about warrantees and returns if it breaks, they had all the answers for that but God forbid you attmept to return it b/c you realize there is no temp control and this is potetial dangerous to the user and hair.
READ ONLINE REVIEWS....you won't find this recommended anywhere. I will purchase a Chi or Sedu now after researching what to look for...
1. Quality Toumaline and Ceramic plates
2. TEMPERATURE CONTROLS
3. Return Policy!
I am trying to save the next person the hassle, 45 minutes of my time wasted today on this attempted refund.
UNACCAPTABLE IN AMERICA.
Oh by the way, these sell on ebay for $59.95
Good Luck and God Bless

After researching which wet to dry flat iron I should buy, I settled on this because there were favorable reviews and it was in the price range I was willing to spend on such an appliance. I haven't used it very much because a)after a while my hair got frizzy again and I wasn't in humid weather and b)it;s uncomfortable to hold in my hand. For what I paid(it was a $120 incl. tax & shipping from another website), I expected a quality product. I get better results with my Conair wet to dry flat iron that I bought at Fry's Electronics for $35.00. No hand fatigue or frizz after using this little gem.
wonderful even in humidity

I love mine. My hair is very fine and thin, yet wavy and frizzy. I live in Texas where the humidity is terrible on your hair. I straightened my hair with the wet/dry Corioliss this morning at 6am. I am a coach and have been out in the humid air (thick fog this morning had to use wipers on the car), but my hair is not frizzy. I love it. I paid $199 for mine at the mall and will do it again when this one needs replacing. I haven't cut my hair in 3 months, and the students have been complementing me on how shiny and healthy my hair has been the last three weeks. HUM I bought the Corioliss 3 weeks ago.To the person that warns of drying out the hair, you need to use an alcohol-free heat protector on your hair before using any straightener. Any GOOD beautician will tell you that.
Love It!

I have thick wavy hair and this iron works great for me. Leaves my hair smooth and shiny. I do not use the highest heat and it still works good. I only recently started using a hair iron but have had no problem learning the technique. My hairdresser actually commented on how shiny and healthy my hair looks.

First of all, I have natural curls, and my hair is thin and long. I bought this flat iron for $200 at the mall--it was such a rip off. They were initially asking for $300 and were including another (smaller) Corioliss flat iron for "free." It's a great product although it has its draw back. The first and only time I have straighted my hair with this flat iron, my hair looked so straight and shiny. I straighted my hair when it was dry, by the way. It took me less than 10 minutes to straighten it. The next day after straightening my hair, it was still looking nice and straight. The following day I soaked my hair with warm water and applied a deep-treatment conditioner and no shampoo. That day, my hair was looking so frizzy and dry and it felt like straw. My hair felt like this for the next 3-4 days. I kept on applying a deep-treatment conditioner and finally, 5 days later, my hair is back to normal. So be very careful on not to overdo it. Your hair can get very damaged. It's up to you, you can either choose to have nice curls or straw-looking hair. I recommend using the flat iron for special ocassions only. That's my advice. Good luck!

I sat down and she started curling my hair with it and i fell in love, she talked it up so much and it relly sounded like a good deal. I got home and plugged it in the light kept going on and off and it would not heat up so i took it back traded it and got home it did the same dam thing so i took it back again got home and once again same thing. Im so dam mad about this its so stupid i spend a hundred dollars on a piece of shit hair iron and it wont even stay on do not by this its a joke!!!!

This hair straightener is amazing. I have frizzy, wavy, bushy hair and live in Houston which is humid all the time. It takes me half the time to straighten my hair now and it stays straight and silky until I wash it. I can go outside after a steamy rain and it stays PERFECT. Well worth the money.

This is the worst flat iron my daughters and I have ever used. After long term use, your hair gets frizzy. I would not ever use this product if it was given to me for free. Nor would I recommend it to anyone. I have used many, the cheaper ones you find in walmart, corioliss and Chi. Chi is THE best by far!!!!
Corioliss! WHAT A WASTE!

I have used the chi for several years and it finally gave out. I bought the corioliss (black one at Northeast Mall about one month ago. I am a very busy gal so when I stoped at the kiosk the little Italian boys gave a great sales pitch. I asked before buying "Is it returnable if I get home and do not like. "yes" I was told. He could see my Hisitation. He said I will sell this to you for $140. I though ok, I was going to spend that on a chi so I will give it a try. Got home, looked at reciept and he had written, Refund within 3 days if "UNOPEND" How can I determine if I like it. I took it back and AMAZING the guy said I will Knock off $51 if you keep it and give it a try. Ok, so I am in a hurry again so I did. He says after one month it should become smoother. BIG LIE! After one month he hopes you blow it off and deal with it. To the one who posted to watch your hair dresser or the guy at the mall is not why the product is bad. It just SUCKS! I know well how to use one!!! It made my hair smell burned, was not any smoother sliding after a month and was starting to damage my hair. I went a bought the Chi and tried them at the same time. AMAZING how much better the chi is right out of the box on the 1st use. I can not believe this product survives on the market. I normally do not rely on the internet for information because the anyone can post any thing they want even if not true in which they do every day. HOWEVER the bad reviews I read on this product were dead on and I should have gotten a refund when I had a chance. Wasted money!
works great but can make burning smell!!!

my stylist uses this on me, she says it is really good for my hair. my mom is white and my dad is african so i have curly frizzy untameble hair. She used it on me and it truned out amazing!!!! it lasts a really lnog time, but when ever you go out and theres humidty your hair smells like its burnt, and if your hair gets wet from humidty or just wet it it will toTALLY FRIZZ UP!!!! bUT ALL IRONS DO THIS. aslo makes your hair break easily. the hair on my head would just come out of the root with no problem. I reccomen just drying your and using the regular corioliss iron. Some people say use the chi, but that stuff burns your hair. Dont forget to use a comb on everu SMALL piece of hair you straighten. Some peopl complain on how it takes them sooo loong to do it, but it usually takes my stylist 45 mins to do good job. I have shoulder lengh hair. I reccomend corioliss black\ pink\ puprle regular iron. Its cheaper and better.

I am a hairdresser from Tampa Florida, I have been doing hair for 9 years, I own 4 corioliss irons, a wet to dry a 1 inch a 1.5 inch and a pro silver, I LOVE all of them, I was working with a chi iron before and I did like that one also but this one seems to work alot better, it runs through any hair type I use it on with no problem, to the people that wrote bad reviews, maybe you should watch your hairdresser and how they use the iron, or maybe if you bought it from a kiosk and when they did it it did a much better job, you should probably try doing it the same way they do, the main problem is that people go home wnd run the iron through there hair so fast and expect magic, Now maybe if you try sectioning off your hair and following each piece slowly with a comb after the iron then you would get the "hair salon " result your looking for not the dry frizzyness of a person that does'nt know how to straighten there hair or just doesnt have the patience to take there time gets....Take my advice this iron is great, you just need to know how to use it...........I HIGHLY RECOMMMEND IT.....
Also for the ones that said it broke after a month, sometimes electronics malfunction, one of mine fell on the floor and broke and I went straight to the kiosk I bought it from and they replaced it right there with no questions asked....
Awesome...with one draw back

The Corioliss straightening iron Wet To Dry is awesome. For 25 years I have been searching for a product that would make my hair straight and silky....I finally found it. Wish it would have been around in the 80's! Some advice....although the iron works great on wet hair....be careful....after a couple of times using the iron on wet hair, your hair will have a bad smell (especially if you sweat or go out in the rain). My suggestion...let your hair dry naturally and then straighten.

Paid $180.00 for this and regret it. There is supposed to be steam coming out while I am straightening my hair, yet it doesn't happen. I felt ripped off and will never again make the mistake of purchasing something from a stand-up store in a mall (especially Woodfield Mall, IL). The fact there is no refund should have been a red flag, but I figured I'd live dangerously. What a mistake!
My hair is still frizzy, the ends look horrible and my $60.00 straightening iron works better than this piece of crap.
You would be an idiot to purchase this.
