Product Rating: 5 Best Flat Iron I Have Ever Used
Reviewer: Lena from North Carolina  Sun Jul 03 2005

This flat iron is the best! I have tried every kind of straightening tool out there and this is the best. Being multi-racial (Native American/African/Caucasian), my hair texture is a mixture of course/fine hair. The Kenta effectively straightens my course hair and doesn't damage my fine hair. My hair stylist used this flat iron on my hair and I loved it! I recently have purchased my own Kenta and I can't believe how well it works.

Product Rating: 5 this straightener...amazing...dont go for the cheap
Reviewer: michelle from florida  Fri Jun 17 2005

i love this straightener... it gets very hot and it straightens real well...ive had it for like 3 years and it broke which is real unusual, and i bought a different straightener from my salon where i bought the kenta and the new one was called the RUSK and my hairdresser recomended it and it was $100.00 and i used it and you have to use much smaller pieces and it pulls your hair, so i tried to return it and get the kenta and they wouldnt except it so im willing to spend the money and buy this flat iron becasue it is worth it and it straightens really fast and keeps it straight... i recomend it... of all my straighteners this one is my favorite...

Product Rating: 4 Love it!!!!
Reviewer: Kay from Alabama  Wed Jun 15 2005

i think this flat iron is definitely worth the money. I would have rated it 5 stars with the exception it does burn my forhead and ear a lot. It has lived up to the higher standards I ever imagined. I would recommend it to anyone.

Product Rating: 3 Be careful!
Reviewer: Laura from Atlanta  Tue May 24 2005

While the Kenta certainly straightned my hair, I have burned the right side of my face by my eye three times in 10 months of having it. Further, my hair often catches in the hinge, pulling and breaking.
The texture of my hair and the quality of the straightening are great, though. I do have the Bio Ionic straightening treatment so the effort with which I had to use the Kenta is easy (less than 10 minutes for corse/wavy, medium length hair).
Unfortunately, it died while I was overseas last week so I just ordered the Sedu 1" based on customer reviews.

Product Rating: 2 Prepare to burn your forehead!
Reviewer: Lisa from Florida  Mon May 16 2005

I was given this hair straightener as a gift and it works very, very well at straightening. However, because the sides of this flat iron are also exposed and are also very heated, I have yet to use this and not either burn my forehead or an ear. As I said, it does work very well at straigthening, but I would not recommend it.

Reviewer: Alka from U.S.  Fri May 13 2005

Had high hopes but disappointed with the quality. It is not worth $130.00. I had better flat irons in the past which does not even cost as much as GIS Kenta..so disappointed.

Product Rating: 1 it really hurt!
Reviewer: Letasha from North carolina  Sun May 01 2005

Product Rating: 5 absolutely the best hair straigntener
Reviewer: Shannon Thompson from shannon_thompson_@hotmail.com  Tue Apr 19 2005

I have really curly hair and I have tried every hair straightener out there... this is the only one that really works! I love it! WE have three in our house. My sister and mom bought one too

Product Rating: 3 Don't waste your money$
Reviewer: Shaggy from Georgia  Thu Apr 14 2005

This iron is okay...not worth the money, takes a long time to straighten hair...

Product Rating: 3 its okay..
Reviewer: cailey from toronto  Mon Apr 04 2005

ive had this straightner for awhile its alrite but its not ceramic so it does burn your hair after awhile.. i'd buy it if u have curly hair but if you have straight hair try a cheaper ceramic iron

Product Rating: 5 I love my iron
Reviewer: Tina Eichen from Michigan  Fri Mar 25 2005

I love my iron I have tryed many over the years and this on is the best. I am on my second one only because my daughter went away to collage and took the other one.

Product Rating: 4 GIS Kenta Flat Ironer/Straightener
Reviewer: Ellen from Maryland  Tue Mar 15 2005

This is MUCH MUCH MUCH better than the $30 Conair straightener I had been using for years. It gets MUCH hotter and is MUCH faster. This product is great for someone who likes to straighten their hair everyday (like me!) or for someone who would straighten more often if only it didn't take hours. I also find that my hair stays straighter for longer and frizzes up a little less easily. My only complaints about this product: Sometimes my hair gets caught inbetween the hot ceramic plates and the plastic casing and it really hurts to pull it out...Also, I wish the plates were just a little bigger.

Product Rating: 3 good...but dont use everyday
Reviewer: Tina   Wed Feb 09 2005

As far as straigtening your hair Kenta is great...However, it does damage it if you use it pretty often. I only use it when I have to

Product Rating: 5 The Kenta is great!
Reviewer: Jessica from Maryland  Sat Jan 29 2005

I've used the Sapphire straightener for awhile, and it worked well but I have thick wavy hair, so even though it would make it straight I still had a lot of volume. The kenta makes my hair straight, takes out all of the volume, and stays that way no matter what I do, like working out, etc. I'd strongly recommend!

Product Rating: 5 its great
Reviewer: Karen from Boston  Fri Jan 28 2005

this is the best straightner ever invented. i've been using it for 9 years and i swear by it, no one believes my hair is naturally curly....well worth the $$.

Product Rating: 5 Great!
Reviewer: Molly   Sat Jan 15 2005

My hair, usually a mess, was turned into pin straight perfection with Kenta hair straightener and a little bit of Thermasilk gel. I would reccomend this product to ANYONE...even without the gel!!

Product Rating: 5 Love it!
Reviewer: Kari L. Cox   Sun Jan 09 2005

I had the same Kenta Flat Iron about 4 years ago and it short circuited after having it forever and using it almost every day. I loved it then and I love the new one I just purchased. Before I ordered the Kenta flat iron, I purchased the Sedu ceramic iron. I hated it! I put serum on before using the Sedu iron, but it still severely damaged my hair. I only used it 4 times before I realized what it was doing to my hair. I returned it and then got the Kenta flat iron. The Kenta iron gets my straight with no kinks in it and it does not burn and dry out my hair. This is something that no other flat iron has done for my hair.

Product Rating: 3 pretty good
Reviewer: Taylor Nagle   Mon Jan 03 2005

I have had this flat iron for about 3yrs. It has done a pretty good job....it just broke this year which i was not to happy about. It did a pretty good job making it straight but it still looked pretty thick, but it was straight!

Product Rating: 5 expensive, but worth the price
Reviewer: john public from USA  Mon Jan 03 2005

the kenta iron has performed as promised. in fact, we purchased another as a gift this Christmas. during our party, my wife did all the girls hair. from straight to wavey, thin to thick, each girl was impressed.

although the cost is significant compared to others, the iron is worth the price.

Product Rating: 5 Kenta flat iron, m
Reviewer: tara galles from Indiana  Thu Dec 09 2004

works like a charm, worth every penny, my curly hair is silky straight
