Product Rating: 5 Hair looks healthy, shiny, and amazing!
Reviewer: alexandra from miami, fl  Thu Feb 28 2008

Wow. I remember my hairstylist saying that Kenta was the best a few years ago but since I was younger, the price seemed obscene at the time. I bought it a few weeks ago and have used it to my great pleasure. It is easy to use, makes hair look wonderful and most importantly... doesnt burn your hair. The straight hair has lasted me forever it seems (havent washed my hair in 4 days to test it out in my Miami humidity). It doesnt curl, snarl, get wavy after sleeping on it, etc. And it has a shine that looks natural and extreme at the same time. I love it. No more brushing my wavy, thick hair and ripping hairs out because of the snarls. I would truly recommend this iron as the best. It is made in Italy so I find the parts superior, easy to handle, light in weight, and overall AMAZING. I know I sound too exuberant... but it is a great thing to be able to walk around without make up and still feel beautiful because my hair is impeccable. I look polished, I feel more confident, and it only takes me 25 minutes to do my middle of the back hair length (that lasts for days, or maybe more).

Product Rating: 5 Great Flat Iron!!!
Reviewer: Tina from Greenwood, IN  Sat Feb 16 2008

I absolutely love this flat iron. It is the only hair appliance I take to the gym with me. Because it has curved edges, you can curl under or flip up without having to use both a flat iron and curling iron. Very handy. Also, the handle gives just the right amount of pressure without it causing creases or you having to squeeze to hard. Wonderful product. Recommend it highly!

Product Rating: 5 Great Flat Iron
Reviewer: Barb from Saint John, IN  Wed Jan 30 2008

This is the best flat iron I have ever used. It was recommended by my stylist and is worth the extra money.

Reviewer: JDR from Baton Rouge, LA  Mon Dec 10 2007

I have had this straightner for over 7 years with NO problems. I love it!

Product Rating: 5 Finally!!!
Reviewer: Mary Revelez from Simi Valley, Ca  Mon Dec 10 2007

I have natural (VERY) curly hair. This is the only iron that can take on the challenge of making it straight!! I have been using the GIS Kenta Flat Iron for the past 6 years and I love this iron, I had to buy my daughter her own so she would leave mine alone!!

Product Rating: 2 worst expensive iron ever
Reviewer: Derrius from Richmond,VA  Sun Dec 02 2007

yes it straightens your hair, but it burns it out not being ceramic and if you have a lot of hair your hand gets tired squeezing that big thick handle for a long period of time. It is very cumbersome.

Product Rating: 5 Great product!!
Reviewer: Nicolle Wilson from Loves Park, IL  Fri Nov 02 2007

My hair stylist suggested the Kenta flat iron because of how much she loves it, and she is right it is the best flat iron I have ever owned. It heats up quickly, is easy to hold and manuever, and has a long enough cord! I would and have recommended it to others looking to purchase a new flat iron.

Product Rating: 5 flat iron
Reviewer: R P from Escondido CA  Thu Jul 12 2007

This flat iron is worth every dollar! It is easy to use, heats up in about 2 minutes and soes not pull your hair out.

Product Rating: 3 good while it lasted
Reviewer: kristin from houston texas  Thu Jul 12 2007

The Kenta was a good iron but heating element will go out

Product Rating: 3 Great concept
Reviewer: anonymous from Oregon  Mon Jul 09 2007

My hairdresser has the scissor style iron which got my interest in the Gis Kenta. My problem with this style is the weight of it and I wasn't able to get my hand around the handles for a good grip. When I did try the Gis Kenta it didn't work any better then the Sedu that I have. Which for me, is easier to use, lighter, and not so bulky.

Product Rating: 2 think twice
Reviewer: kris from houston texas  Mon May 21 2007

I loved this iron for a year when it worked. But it quit working and unfortuatly its the heating elememt that went out.

Product Rating: 5 Best straightner ever!
Reviewer: Julie from Illinois  Wed May 02 2007

For years I tried tons of different straightners that never actually straighten my thick and wavy hair. I finally found one, and its the Kenta straightner. This is the by far best straightner ever!

Product Rating: 4 Great product.
Reviewer: Melisa from Murray, KY  Mon Apr 23 2007

I really like this product. I was a bit surprised that it wasn't ceramic but seems to heat enough how it is.

Product Rating: 5 Amazing!
Reviewer: Shannon   Mon Apr 02 2007

I have used MANY flat irons and nothing works as well as the Kenta. Ceramic may be better for your hair, but it does not work and LAST on thick/curly hair. Kenta gets mine stick straight and it will not curl again until it's wet.

Product Rating: 5 Gis Kenta Flat Iron
Reviewer: Rachel V. from Beverly Hills, CA  Fri Jan 05 2007

I have used many flatirons in my career as a high end hairstylist and this has every thing I need. It quickly makes the hair smooth and shiny without burning or damage and I recommend it to my clients all the time. Thank you for a great product!

Product Rating: 5 Oh yes
Reviewer: Erica Francis from Sandwich Islands  Sat Dec 02 2006

Product Rating: 5 Awesome, I love it.
Reviewer: RM from San Jose, CA  Fri Oct 13 2006

Great iron, heats up quicly, doesn't snag, straightens beautifully. Not a super elegant design, but it works, and is definitely worth the money. Enjoy!

Product Rating: 5 Lasting Investment!!!!
Reviewer: Shawn from Lumberton, TX  Tue Oct 10 2006

I purchased this over 5 years ago. It has never given a bit of trouble. I also have 2 Farouk CHI irons. I like them too, but for thick, curly hair like ours, this works faster with lasting results. You can also pull a thicker section of hair - which makes it faster. I have always taken care not to kink the cord and it is just as great today as the day I got it. Thank You for a QUALITY product!!

Product Rating: 5 Hair Like Silk!
Reviewer: Diane Stevens from Santa Barbara, CA  Thu Sep 14 2006

What your going to get is hair like silk, the Kenta is in my opinion the best there is. It heats up in seconds and straightens quickly and stays straight even in humidity. It's great for touch ups and you don't need to add a lot of extra products to your hair to get the results you want.
Worth every penny, wish I would have tried it first, the ceramic flat irons loose their coating and literally fry your hair. Great on colored or processed hair with no damage.
