I bought this for my daughter a year ago from a salon that said it's what their stylists use. Well after a year of listening to complaints about pulling on her hair and not being hot enough and it takes so long (she has medium length basically straight (she says wavy) and borrowing her mom's straightener (who doesn't live with us) I am going out to get another iron.
I LOVE FHI

Hands down this is the best flat iron I have ever used on my hair. I recently just upgraded from this iron to their RUNWAY which is their top of the line iron and I have never had hair that is more silky or smooth (and I usually have really poufy and thick hair) And I just saw it in UsWeekly the other day and A LOT of the top celebrity stylists now use FHI Heat like Jennifer Anniston's stylist Chris McMillan and Angelina Jolie's hairstylist as well. So if its good enough for them its good enough for me!! Highly RECOMMEND, I absolutely LOVE my flat iron!!!!!!
Good Job

I Recently bought the FHI. At first I was not that impressed with the product but the more i use it the better i feel about the purchase. I am an African American woman with out a relaxer and I always have people who think I do. The only thing I wish this flat iron had was a dial so that I can control the temperature. Other than that I say FHI IS GREAT!
The best flat iron

I absolutely love this iron. I have fine hair so I was concerned about it not having a temperature setting, but this iron does wonders for my hair. It leaves it feeling super silky but not thin.
WARNING!!!!

Here is a little story for you. I have short very THIN hair so I invested in some extensions. Which by the way change everything about my look and my pocket!! I loved them. Then I received this as a x-mas present. I was very excited. I used it for about a year and half while using a damage control so really did not notice any issue. Then I went to Italy. I purchased an adapter for 120V which is what was supposed to be used with this product. WELL guess what there is no warning label on the box that states do not use out of the country. The iron got so hot that it burned my entire head of hair. NOW you would think why didnt you notice this.. Well it did not smoke or smell like burned hair which would be the ultimate warning sign. It wasnt until after i was finished that i placed it on the BATHROOM counter when i noticed it had melted ITSELF and the counter. I could go on to tell you the amount of money i have lost and the amount of times i want to look into the mirror and just cry. If you buy this product be very careful. I bought this from my salon that i have been going to for 7 years and their reply to me was .. cut your hair off. YEP can you believe that. GOOD LUCK

This FHI flat iron is great. I get the same results as my hair stylist does. I am African-American with thick, wavy, frizzy hair. My hair has changed a great deal since I was in high school and has been a bit difficult to manage, leaving me frustrated and less than sure about my appearance. Once I used the FHI iron, the clouds parted, heaven shined, and the angels sang once again. My hair is straight and does not revert back to its original state. I called my sister and told her my results, and now she is in the process of getting one also. The key to using this iron is to make sure you have a heat protectant spray to achieve the results you are looking for.

WOW. the FHI is amazing. i love to straighten my hair but my old one was really bad and killed my hair and my best friend had the CHI, so i used it once in a while and it was pretty good. but then my aunt told me that there was something else, the FHI. so i said okay why not try it and see if its good. so my aunt got it for me and i love it soooo much!! it does give off a little smell from the heat but it does NOT go off on your hair which is good! i would definately recommend this product to all girls who love their hair straight. <33
no need to worry about the heat

My aunt bought me this iron 2 years ago as a gift because she had just done the japanese straightening to my hair and i couldnt use a metal flat iron anymore. She used it at the salon with no problems but the darn thing gets hot but i have to let it heat back up dring the middle of straightening me hair. My friend used the CHI on my hair what a difference my hair was soft silky and best yet the hair stayed straight for four days even after a shower the heat from the shower didnt even curl it. Needless to say my new Chi is on order and the FHI is going in the famous drawer of things i dont use anymore.

Great product for the money! My last iron was a Chi also a great product but you can't beat the price of the FHI. Works just as well and less than half the price. Will order this brand again!!

I bought this product and absolutely hated it. It didn't even feel liked it heated up enough. My hair barely got straight and it pulled at my hair a little bit. I didn't like the one fixed temperature. It's not worth the money.
Not Impressed one bit..

You know I did alot of research - comparing a Chi to all other products. I read so many places that the FHI was as good as the Chi for so much cheaper. Having spent so much money of useless hair equipment I thougth I'd try my luck at something cheaper. HAH - Now I know why the Chi is more expensive.
Although the FHI straightens ok - the piece is to hot for you to handle with two hands.. Now for straightening it's ok, but if you want to anything at all like flipping, waving or even curling the ends - forget about it or use an oven mitt! I am returning it now and going for a Sedu.. Hopefully this works better. I tried the Chi - worked fine, broke too soon after i purchased...
Great

I used my friend's FHI last night and the results were amazing. It got my hair very straight and shiny. It's humid outside too and still no problems with my black hair. In my opinion, it works way better than the Chi. The Chi would straighten my edges but leave my friends frizzy and I would have to keep applying heat everyday to keep it straight. It was also wayyy to hot, seems like it could easily damage the hair. But I loved the FHI, hence the reason why I'm on the site. I will be getting one very soon.
A must have iron!

I am an African American woman and I really love the FHI 1" iron, it's very economical! The heat setting is perfect just like being at the salon. My hair gets silky straight with alot of bounce. The FHI straightens my hair to the point where I now stretch my relaxer from 8 weeks to 12 weeks. Now that's stretching it straight!
Didn't work for me

I exchanged my FHI because it did not work for me. My hair is naturally waivy and is usually very easy to straighten. This iron just does not seem to get hot enough. It takes a long time to straighten my hair with this iron and even then it doesn't look as straight as it does w/ other ones that I've used. The problem is that there is only one temperature setting on this iron.

I loved this flat iron, I had a $150 CHI, and this FHI iron works 5x better than my CHI for a fraction of the cost. This was def. a good buy.

This is ht best flat iron in the world!! This is the straightner used at my salon, and im always so happy with the results. but being a college student, i didnt exactly have 150 to drop on one sold at the salon. but my conair wasnt exactly doing much anymore. So glad i stumbled on folica.com. great product,greater customer service, great shipping. I will definately be ordering from this site again. extremely satisfied!!
