Product Rating: 5 Absolutely the best
Reviewer: Anne from San Francisco Bay Area  Thu Nov 01 2007

The Hai Digistick heats instantly and can be set to the exact temperature for your hair type. It is extremely lightweight, and I don't think it's my imagination, but my hair becomes extremely shiny and soft after using the Digistick. I did have to return it because I accidentally ordered this one instead of the Tong which has curved ceramic plates. Customer service was wonderful about the exchange and I am very happy with my new Hai Tong.

Product Rating: 5 The Best !
Reviewer: Deann Johnson from Clifton Springs NY  Wed Oct 31 2007

This is the best straightening iron I have ever had. My naturally curly hair stays straight all day, even through light rain/mist ! It is like a miracle product...normally straightening my hair resulted in frizz or partially curly if it was humid. Not so with this bad boy. I live in western NY and can't wait to see how awesome it is in Florida. Worth every penny.

Product Rating: 2 DO NOT BUY
Reviewer: Ameey from MD  Wed Oct 10 2007

i bought this product after alot of research and reading many product reviews. I was so excited to get this new HAI straighner as previously i was using the pink coricollis..and i loved it. However, i gave that away and i thought of purchasing one thats new in the market so i bought the new HAI. I have used it several times and i honestly do not like it...it doesnt leave you hair smooth, doesn't straighten hair leaves a very rough feeling almost like you hair needs to be brushed. would not recommend this product to anyone.

Reviewer: Ice Maiden from The Crystal Coast of NC  Tue Oct 02 2007

I have VERY curly hair and the only thing that has ever striaghtend my hair was the hot comb that sits on the stove! The Digistick is the bomb! Some days my hair is so curly that it may take upto 90 mins. to do but it's the best I wouldn't trade it for anything. This is an AWESOME product!

Product Rating: 5 AMAZING!
Reviewer: Larva   Mon Sep 24 2007

I have very curly hair, and we had purchased many straighteners in regular beauty supply stores, but NOTHING WORKED! Sure my hair would become semi-straight, but hey, we ALL want that super straight SLEEK look!

Anyway, this straightener is amazing! My mom and I used to share one, but I recently went off to University and we had NO hesitation in purchasing a second one! The only flaw? umm... it's price! haha

Product Rating: 5 HAI is the BEST
Reviewer: Marsha from Washington DC  Sat Sep 22 2007

I had the 2 1/2" HAI for years and just recently got a shorter haircut - so I purchased the 1" HAI eLite Digistick. It is the best. I have tried other brands and truly believe that you will never go wrong with a HAI. This one is particularly light weight and heats up so fast. You will not be disappointed.

Product Rating: 5 EXCELLENT & PROFESSIONAL
Reviewer: Tina from La Jolla, CA  Tue Sep 18 2007

This is the top of the line for flat irons...bar none!

My hair dresser friends use this one too. It rocks. I have tried them all this one is IT.

Product Rating: 5 Greatest flat Iron I have used to date
Reviewer: Melodee from Los Angeles, CA  Tue Sep 18 2007

This flat iron is amazing. I have relaxed African American hair and after a shower or in grow out phazes, my hair is still nappy and most flat irons cause damage, esp. when used on hair that is already chemically relaxed. However, I have been using this one for over a month and my hair actually looks better and long in the short month. The straighting effects last until the next time I get my hair wet again and even sweat does not penetrate it. Additionally, the size of the Digistik is perfect for getting the little kinks close to the edges and curling under a quick bang in the front.

Sorry I don't have any pictures available to put up at this time, but definately, this flat iron is worth the money and I have used a LOT of flat irons before as most of my friends are hairstylist. I am getting them to switch too!

Product Rating: 5 A Kick Butt flat Iron!!!
Reviewer: Debbie from Providence RI  Tue Aug 21 2007

I have tried many irons including Magic Ionic many times only to spend TONS of money and have the cord break just a few months after the warranty expired.
This iron straightens and makes hair silky smooth. Way better than any Magic Ionic or any iron I have ever used! I highly reccomend it. I bought one after reading many reviews on Folica.com on many different irons and this one is definitley worth the money, like many of the reviews I read stated.
The digital thermometer is great too for all hair types. It heats up in seconds! Spend the extra money. It's worth it and you will never think twice about buying another brand except this one!!!

Product Rating: 5 Digistik
Reviewer: Jayne   Fri Jul 13 2007

I love this iron! I have thick curly hair and this makes the job so much easier. I've tried other irons infrashine, chi and this is my favorite! The handle and shape of the iron makes it comfortable to hold as you work through you hair. Truly an excellent product!!

Product Rating: 5 I LOVE the HAI eLite Digistick
Reviewer: Wanda from Omaha, NE  Tue Jul 10 2007

I was using the $79 HAI Convertable Ceramic Flat Iron for about 4 years until the swivel portion of the cord caused a malfunction, so I started to shop for a new straight iron.

I have very curly hair that gets very frizzy in the high humidity in which I live.

After shopping around, I decided to purchase the HAI eLite Digistick with infrared. I LOVE IT!!! Even though I iron at the full 380 degrees, my hair does not fry - it looks sleek and shiny and it stays that way all day long!!!

The first straightener I owned, which I mentioned above, HAI Convertable Ceramic Flat Iron, seemed to fry the ends of my hair and made my hair look dried out. In addition, the wand was wider and harder to handle.

I would definitely recommend spending the extra money for this straightener, the HAI eLite Digistick.

Product Rating: 5 I have un-relaxed African-American hair.
Reviewer: Kim from Novi, MI  Tue Mar 20 2007

I have been growing out my hair for about 4 months now. I have about 2-3 inches of newgrowth and about 4 inches of relaxed hair. About 3 weeks ago, I got my open flame pressing comb too hot and burnt my hair. All of it didn't fall out, but that was definitely my last straw. I then decided to wear hats the whole time, because I didn't know how else to straighten it. My friend straightened my hair with her CHI flat iron, but it felt really hard and looked really dry. I decided to try the Hai brand and I love the Digistik Elite. It took my half afro to straight, sleek and shiney. I definitely think this will work great for anyone with hard to manage hair. I straightened mines with the temp at 370F and was able to get really close to straighten the hair near my scalp. I am so speechless because I normally have dry hair, but not anymore!

Sorry, but the photos I took are too large to show.

Product Rating: 5 Best Straighter Ever!!!!!
Reviewer: Jayme from Bourbonnais, IL  Fri Mar 02 2007

I've never been able to straighten with "One swipe" until now... i save so much time. Best straighter I have ever had!

Product Rating: 5 ...simply GREAT!!!
Reviewer: Lilly from California  Sat Feb 24 2007

I have been using HAI flat irons for years and I am a very satisfied customer but I gotta say that the eLite Digistick is AMAZING. It's light and the perfect tool to use everyday. You don't have to worry about damaging your hair.

Product Rating: 5 Great product
Reviewer: Linda from San Diego, CA  Fri Jan 19 2007

I love my new HAI flat iron. It's the best tool that I have purchased thus far. I used it on my friends with different hair types and it works well. I would recommend this product.

Product Rating: 3 I perfered my Sedu Straightner
Reviewer: CK from NYC  Thu Jan 04 2007

After a few years of using pretty decent Sedu straigtner it finally stop working. After reading all the rave reviews about this Hai straightner I thought I would give it a try. I have relatively healthy shiney straight hair with a lot of volume so I only use the straightner to flatten out some of the volume. This straightner is okay at that but is NOT worth the price. It makes my hair more dull and the digital temperture control is not that reliable so its hard to control the heat setting that you want. Overall I was not impressed with the results. Plus it's heavier then some other straigtners I have used in the past. If you like Hai straightners then get a more inexpensive model otherwise I recommend Sedu straightners.

Product Rating: 5 I Love My HAI
Reviewer: Kim A from Houston, TX  Tue Nov 28 2006

I purchased this iron about a month ago. I bought this iron because my hairstylist uses a flat iron to curl my hair, and I wanted to achieve the same results. I already owned an older HAI flat iron, with wider plates, but my iron never made my hair as shiney nor would it curl as my hairstylist did. I took a chance on this iron, and I am so happy that I did. My hair has shine is is smooth. Having a smaller plates, it also allows me to curl, flip, and flick my hair into a nice molded style. I personally believe that it is a bit pricey; however, I also believe that it is worth every penny that I paid.

Product Rating: 3 not as good as the price would make one think
Reviewer: Heather Hulsey from Lake Havasu City AZ  Tue Nov 21 2006

I have used this product for a couple weeks and am actually going to send it back because I am not happy with it and it is frying my hair. I know it is not the user because I bought a Tourmaline and it is working great.

Product Rating: 5 WOW!!!!
Reviewer: noelle from Bay Area, CA  Wed Nov 01 2006

This iron is great! It is truly the best I have ever used, and I have tried tons. Sorry, I have to disagree with Cheryl from L.A., I found this iron to be much better than the HAI convertible. It curls and flips so much easier, and it is also infused with tourmaline, which makes your hair much shinier and smoother. It heats up super fast, and the plates actually get darker when it is hot so you know it is 100% ceramic. It straightens my hair so much faster than the convertible, and it feels much healthier. I curled my hair with it for the first time yesterday, and it only took 15 min to do loose spirals in my very long course hair, and the curls stayed all day! It used to take me an hour with a curling iron, and the curls would fall within 1 or 2 hours. I can't say enough about this iron. A++++

Product Rating: 5 hai iron
Reviewer: angie from mi  Sat Oct 14 2006
