Another cord short
Reviewer:

from St. Petersburg, FL Wed Jan 23 2008
As I read in many other reviews, the cord shorted out, literally within the 1st week we had it. I specifically told my daughter to be careful pulling the plug in and out, because we knew of the problem. However, the cord itself is what shorted out - not the plug... I have it boxed up to return and hopefully they will replace or refund...
BEST FLAT IRON EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have always had straight hair, but when I was 11 years old I decided to get a perm, BIG MISTAKE!! Now I have a wave at the end of my hair that is always frizzy. I was recently looking into buying a new flat iron and was ready to buy the Tru Ceramic Pro that you see on TV and thank God I didn't, because they had the worst BBB reviews ever. I was then gonna get the CHI. I googled flat irons and came across this web site and still could not make a decision. Fianlly after going through all of that one of my pharmaceutical reps told me that she uses the HAI 2 and she has super course curly hair and it got her hair really straight and I was like if it can get her curly hair straight I can't imagine what it could do for my semi wavy straight hair. Well I got it for xmas and tried it when my hair wasn't washed and it came out awesome, then I tried it after my hair was washed, and it was even better. It doesn't leave your hair dry or frizzy when you walk outside and no straightening creams are needed afterwards. The 2 1/4 inch plates are just the right size for my thick long hair and the best part about that is, it only takes 15 minutes to do. I would DEFINITLEY recommend this product to everyone!!!!!!!!!
Great Hair Iron

I had owned a cheaper flat iron in the past and had this one recommended to me by a friend. There is such a difference. It is easy to use and doesnh't burn my hair or make it feel like straw. Folica was very reliable to order from. Quick, easy delivery, no problems at all. i am a very satisfied customer.
Best wide flat iron around

I have purchased and tried about 7 flat irons in the past few years. This is by far the best and the value cannot be beat! The thickness of the plates is the most effective in getting hair super straight, and its still ceramic which is great. I dont know why people would purchase more expensive brands when this iron is the most effective compared to the others irons on the market. Hai brand is the way to go! I have the thinner version as well and it works just the same as the expensive brands.
WORKS GREAT

its the best flat iorn i've had. leaves my hair so soft and stright. it's just a good as the chi. the only thing i don't really like is that its a bit too wide, but that's not to bad since i have a lot of hair and that makes it faster to finish.
Good quality Iron, fast results!

I really wanted to buy a flat iron and it was a difficult decision to make. I never used before this brand but I am glad that I choose this one (this is my first time purchasing a flat iron of this kind). Before my purchase I read and evaluated several brands and helped me a lot to read the iron purchasing manual and tips, customer reviews, F&Q’s before buying the right iron for my type of hair. I think the price ($87) it was fair. I am really satisfied because I don’t have to spend too much time getting my hair straight. Also I read about product suggestions from other Folica customers. I noticed that straightening my hair in humid climate place doesn’t work like when I am in my hometown with a dry climate.
My only concern is that I read the customer reviews and some people had problems with the cable connection. I was a little bit disappointed because the manufacturer doesn’t include a manual; also I send by mail the guarantee but the post office returned it (twice).
I LOVE IT!!!!

I read all the reviews on this product and I purchased it from folica. I was so disappointed to see how big the HAI2 was in person. The iron sat on my desk for weeks as I planned to send it back. One day, I decided to use it. WHOA!!!! I LOVE IT LOVE IT. I am so glad I didnt send it back, and the size is actually an asset as it enables you to straigthen more hair. It gets my hair really straight.
Now, if I can only figure out how to master a great curl with it...
BUY IT! You'll be happy with it :D
I really love this product.

I have always had coarse thick hair and have never been able to wear it straight, I had purchased other irons and was not pleased with their performance, I got burned, pinched my hand, they would not glide through my hair. This iron was recommended to me and I have been pleased when I first used it and I am now able to wear my hair straight and I get many compliments on my hair since using this iron.

I purchased this on the basis of the HAI 2 making it to the top beauty products in InStyle. I was pleased that it met my expectations. It is sturdy and performs very well. My hair had been relaxed before and now with the use of HAI 2 it looks like it was relaxed again.

My oh my. This iron is THE BEST!!!!!!!!!! I have difficult hair (I'm half black & half white) my hair isn't straight, but it's not curly, it's just...BLAH, so I'm always up for trying a new hair product. I read reviews on many flat irons and decided to splurge on the Hai2 and I am so glad I did! This thing is a beast, plug it up, let it heat for at least 10 minutes and you're set to start. I have to use mine at the highest temp. and I can feel the heat next to my scalp so be careful!!! It got my hair the straightest it has ever been. Even a chemical relaxer doesn't get it this straight...and it so soft and smooth and moveable. I've never written a review but I am so happy with the Hai2 that I had to write this in case someone is out there researching flat irons...it works. Oh, and the results lasts for a few days, the next day I just touch up the front and I'm back in business! I even went outside when it was drizzling and it stayed straight...no frizz! I did read about the power cord being shoddy, but hopefully I won't have that problem. Try it, you'll love it!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent Flat Iron

This is the best flat iron I have ever purchased. It heats quickly and glides smoothly through your hair. It effectively flattens your hair, leaving it smooth and silky. I will never purchase any other brand/model as long as this one is available.
Great Flat Iron

I bought this for my sister who had one previously but on a trip to Ireland, it got damaged.
So, she asked for another one (same product) for her b-day. Great product.
HAI 2.25 inch flat iron

This is my first flat iron and it performs as well as I expected. I like the thick round elecrical cord, it doesn't get all tangled up like my curlers. It heats up fast enough for my liking, straightens my hair, although sometimes it takes a few passes down the curlier hair to do so. I chose the wider paddles because I don't have much time to spend on my hair and wanted to do more hair at a time, however, if you are looking to create a slight twist to your locks with a flat iron, I haven't been able to get this wider version to accomplish that.
Great Investment!

I've had my HAI for the past 7 years. Can you believe it is still working as well as it did the first day I purchased it? I've been ironing my hair every morning since the day I baught it. You would think my hair would be fried by now, but surprisingly, my hair is still soft and smooth. Mind you, it was a lot more expensive when I baught it. I think it's the best investment I've ever made thus far.

I purchased this hair iron recently and I have loved it from the first day I have used it. It works quickly and I just love my hair not being a tumbleweed. It was also very well priced. I also use the Chi hair sild product and the results are great. Thank you Folica for the great price and product.
The best flat iron ever!!

I was given the HAI for my birthday and it was one of the best gifts I got!I have thick wavy hair and this flat iron makes my hair look naturaly sleek and shiny! I love it!!! I've had other brands and none can compare...
Fantastic for thick, coarse, wavy hair!

I don't know how I lived without an awesome flat iron for so long. I have thick, coarse, long hair that frizzes up at the slightest humidity...until now. Dum de dum! This is my first flat iron, but I had tried my friend's 1" ProSelect--That could not even MANAGE my hair.
If you have thick hair, make sure you get at least a 2" plate like the HAI2. The HAI 2 is fantastic for the following reasons:
- I live in NY (super humid) and once my hair is straight for the week, it does not get little frizzies, it stays straight for DAYS, and it is so manageable.
- It heats up in under a minute, so it's perfect for quick touch-ups on the way out the door
- Big plates make it possible to do my hair in an hour (I said it's long...)
I wash my hair in the AM, and straighten that night.
1) wash my hair w/ moisterizing or clarifying shampoo 2) condition with a deep conditioner every time (I only wash my hair 2x a week - it's long, so it works) 3) to wet/damp hair, apply a) Extra Strength Frieda Defrizz Serum b) then apply a straightening cream such as L'Oreal Hot Straight or Frieda Wind Down Relaxing Creme 4) air dry (My hair turns into a big frizz ball if I use a blowdryer) 5) Clip hair into sections with butterfly clips & spritz with either shine spray (Frieda's is cheap and works well) or a protective heat-activated spray (Tresemme is ok but not great) 6) flat iron at about 360-380 degrees.
Overall, I love this flat iron and would definitely buy it again.

I love it!!! IT is my 2nd time purchasing it. The first time it lasted 2 years..and then there was a kink in the wire. But, other than that..nothing compares!! I've tried paying up tp $150 for irons in the mall huts..and it burned my hair reeally bad. All of my friends love it and always tell me to bring it over on nights we go out! :)
