I researched many flat irons and it was here that I found the best consumer comments that helped me choose the best one. I thank you and highly recommend this product. I have basically straight hair but it does have a natural curl in it especially in humid conditions and this iron does the trick on straightening. It heats quickly and straightens with out damage. It's easy to use and doesn't pull my hair. The heat pad/case that it cam with was nice too.
Love it!

It heats up super quick and my hair looks really great and it gets straight and shiny. It is so light and easy to use. I brought this because it was a little less expensive as the CHI (which is what my hair stylists uses) but I use it with the T3 brushes and the CHI therma products all with the Tourmaline and all I can say is AWESOME!!!!!! I love my hair and Ive been getting complements since I have been doing my hair with my HAI iron. Oh yeah and when I ordered it from folica, it came the very next day! It cant get any better than that!

It's smaller so I can work on the shorter hair easily. It takes up less room in my suitcase too! Quality, well-made product at a very good price at Folica.com.
My hair looks professionally done!

This is the first one I ever purchased. I love it. I have wavey thick, medium coarse hair. It is easy to use. The HAI Stik makes it so soft, smooth and silky just like when I have it professionally done. I have gotten so many compliments on my hair every time I use it. I am never going to use anything else again.
Great...Until Stopped Working

I absoultely loved my HAI Stik...until it suddenly stopped working after 2 months of sporadic use. As others noted in reviews, the red light went off while using it. I was hoping this meant that my light just was not going to work and the iron would still work. Not so. I only used the iron 2-3 times per week and never dropped it or twisted the cord. I hope I will be able to convince HAI to either fix or replace, since it is past my 30 day warranty through Folica! My advice: Love the iron, just save your reciept and be sure to register your iron with HAI for the warranty.
It really works!

I am happy to say that this flat iron really does everything it claims! I have thick not-curly-not-straight hair that fails to respond to almost all flat irons. I have actually been through 3 others in the past month - none of which were hot enough to straighten my hair on first pass, or even second and third. The iron heats up quickly, stays hot longer than most, and straightens without giving my hair that "straw-like" look. I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend it highly!
i love my hai!

better than the others, go for the hai. i've tried chi (doesnt last) sedu (doesn't work) and solia (poorly made). i've been using my hai stik for over 2 years and it's the best iron EVER.
Great, but not flawless product

I bought this particular HAI Stick a little over 2 years ago. I absolutly love how it works, but it does easily dry my hair out. Any flat iron will do that to you hair however since it uses so much heat. I love the ability to change the temperature and it heats up in only a matter of seconds. However, recently, as other reviews have noted, the light began to short out, signaling the flat iron turning off. It has only done this occasionally, but I am afraid it will more than like bring my wonderful HAI to an end shortly. Great product, but not for an extended period of time.
Ok, but there are better options for ethnic hair

I have chemically relaxed and dyed african-american hair (shoulder length), and I've been doing it on my own for over ten years. I decided to upgrade from my old Gold N Hot flat iron for this one, but I am going to return it. This flat iron does a decent job on my hair, but I still feel like even my old G&H did a better job. Although the Hai straightens my hair, it does not feel as soft, smooth and “pressed” as it has with other flat irons. I know there are other options out there to meet my needs, so I’ll be exchanging this one to try another brand.
Pros of this flat iron:
-Fast heat up, multiple temps to choose from
-Flashing red light lets you know that temp. is consistent
-Smooth plates, no hair pulling
-Seems ideal for users with curly/wavy hair, or slightly frizzy hair. Also ideal if you have fine to slightly coarse textures of hair.
Cons (at least for me):
-Highest temp. was not ideal for coarser textures of hair
-Hard to reach the hair roots to smooth entire hair shaft
-Had to re-iron over the same small sections of hair more than twice to get the effect that I wanted
-Will do a minimally good job for medium or very coarse hair, but may not satisfy all users with very frizzy/ textured/ ethnic hair.
I would never buy anything else

My hair is naturally quite straight, but I've been using a curling iron to even/smooth out the length and then give some bend at the ends. Someone told me to try a straightening iron instead as it's actually easier, quicker, and more effective. After way too much research, I finally settled on this iron since it was a relatively reasonable price and had good reviews. I can see why! It takes me less than half the time it took me with a curling iron, heats up so quickly I barely have time to comb my hair out before it's ready, and it can even straighten out a crimp from having my hair tied up, etc. I haven't had it long enough to know about longevity but if it's reasonable, I see no reason to ever buy a different flat iron.
Love It!

I was introduced to the HAI flat iron by my stylist. I was amazed at how quickly she straightened my otherwise wavy hair. It heats up quickly and retains heat. I was dissapointed that I did not get my FREE pouch as advertised though. Also, it would be nice if it had a auto off/on. I am constantly having to check myself as I am always in a hurry!
THIS IS THE BEST!

This is a great straightener and i would recommend it to anyone. my mother-in-law, sister-in-law and sister all have the same one and we all love it. i get comments all the time on how soft and smooth my hair looks and it is because of the straightener.
Happy with Hai

I just started using the HAI on my relaxed African American hair and my daughter's very thick natural hair. It is wonderful! No snags and easily straightens both textures with the right temperature setting. Those with relaxed hair should be careful not set the temperature too high.
Amazing Iron

I have very curly hair naturally. With other irons, I'd have to make sure my hair was mostly straight from blowing it out, and then do the last smoothing bit with my iron. With my Hai Stick, I'm able to loosely dry my hair and not have to worry about taking so much time to smooth it all out, since this iron does most of the work. I usually just put a little Biosilk in, dry quickly and then straighten in layers. I've also used the larger Hai, but I love that this one is small enough to get right at the roots, especially because I have bangs, but it's also powerful enough to still straighten all of my hair. I love love love this iron :) I get compliments on my hair all the time.
