Product Rating: 3 not-so-flat iron
Reviewer: Lauryn from new jersey  Tue Nov 14 2006

i know everyone has been raving about Hot Tools Professional flat iron in some other reviews, but i've been using this product for about a year, and I honestly have to say that it was just okay, nothing great. My thick curls took a very long time to straighten with this product and i had to keep going over each section until it was really straight, which damaged and fryed my hair. Sometimes i would only have time to do half of my head, and then i looked ridiculous! and unlike some other flat irons, it's no match for humidity, and it doesn't keep the hair straight for a long time. It also has these weird roller-type things in it which snag my hair :( i'd always end up with bumps, even after going over a scetion many times. i had my hair done by a professional last week and she used a ceramic straightener, which left my hair silky smooth, unlike this one which left it dry and stringy. Maybe splurging on a high-quality flat iron will help my hair straighten :)

Product Rating: 5 IM IN LOVE WITH MY STRAIGHTNER!

Reviewer: Alicia from Jersey  Sat Nov 11 2006

I bought this straightener about a year ago, knowing that it wasn't the best but I figured I'd try it on my own. Overall, it works great, but comes with some disadvantages. The top of it does crack after a while of using it, and the sides do eventually come off. This straightener works great as long as you TAKE CARE OF IT. My room mate was the first to drop it after a year and thats when the sides came off, then she stepped on it when she was drunk and completely broke the poor thing. Overall, it's worth the price, you just need to take care of it and it will last you a while.

I had a remmington wet to straight flat Iron for nearly a year. It sucked. It didnt have smooth plates and was really thin. The only good thing about it was the heaat.

Reviewer: Roseanne from Cali  Fri Oct 27 2006

I am so pleased with my Hot Tools Flat Iron! I have used several brands and have to say this is the best one in regards to really straightening my hair completely.

Product Rating: 5 Best For the money
Reviewer: Colleen from NEW YORK  Fri Oct 27 2006

I have tried many other types of flat irons, Then i was introduced to Hot Tools. This flat iron i found works the best for me, i have thick wavey hair, and when im done i have straight thin hair that looks healthy.

Product Rating: 5 LOVE IT!!
Reviewer: Lindsey from Carson City, Nevada  Sat Oct 21 2006

I absolutely love this product. I've tried numerous other flat irons and nothing has worked on my thick, VERY curly, frizzy hair except this! My aunt bought me this about 3 years ago and I LOVE her for it! Like everyone said though, it only lasts about a year but I use it everyday, sometimes more than once a day! Who cares anyways? As long as it works I will buy it no matter the cost, which in this case it is very affordable. And what is all this talk about ceramic??? Ceramic irons DO NOT work for me, this HOT TOOLS WORKS!!

Product Rating: 4 works for me
Reviewer: Danielle from long island  Mon Oct 16 2006

as sooon as i got it i loved it but as time passed (2 or more mounths) i found it didnt work as well espeshally when trying to tame the frizz. my hair is curly and frizzes easaly this did help but stoped as time went on all my friends have it and they say it works great and they have the same hair type as me and they had it longer but overall i recamend this hair straghtiner to anyone.

Product Rating: 2 I DONT LIKE IT
Reviewer: Jennie from Michigan  Sun Oct 08 2006

This straightener does straighten your hair and it warms up wuick. However, my last one stopped working all of a sudden and we've only had it for one year. So then we bought another one and it keeps snapping in half. I think this product should be redesigned. Corioliss is the best straightener though...it also curls your hair with theee most perfect curls!

Product Rating: 4 Hot Tools flat iron is AWESOME!
Reviewer: Michele from Norfolk, VA  Thu Oct 05 2006

My hair stylist recommended this flat iron. Received it yesterday, tried it, & can already tell it's going to do exactly what I want...in less time than others I've tried. My only complaint? Wish it had a lock for the clamps. Heats up super fast. Not only would I buy it again, but also recommend it for others. And for the price? Awesome!

Product Rating: 5 Great Iron...
Reviewer: Kristi from WI  Wed Oct 04 2006

I bought this Flat Iron as a recommendation from someone, and I love it. Mine came with a free pouch, which is nice for protecting it and travel. I have thick/wavy hair and it works great. Even gets out pony tail marks from having my hair up all day!

Product Rating: 5 Works Great!
Reviewer: Morgan   Fri Sep 29 2006

First off thanks folica for the superfast shipping! I have to admit I didn't expect much from this iron because of the price but I was wrong! It works and it works well.It only takes me ten minutes to straighten my hair.I absolutely love this iron!

Reviewer: roseann from new york  Sat Sep 16 2006

This is a great iron, especially for the price. I am so happy that I ordered it from folica. I have had several irons that I did not like, and paid much more money for them. This is the best so far.

Product Rating: 5 LOVE IT!!
Reviewer: Kristin from Maine  Fri Sep 15 2006

I have fine hair that if I put it up, it would have to stay up until I washed it again because of how badly my hair would crimp. But with this flat iron I can actually take my hair down, and straighten it and I'm ready to go. I have not found any other item that could do this for me, and I love it!!! Very happy with my flat iron!!

Product Rating: 4 great
Reviewer: Emerson from Louisville  Tue Sep 12 2006

This straightener worked great on my curly and thick hair. Though, It broke really easily (probaby because I dropped it so much)! That also made it snag my hair. Now, it only works when it is standing up not laying down. It stinks, because now I am looking for a new one that will work even if I drop it, because there is no way I won't drop it. I'm too clumsy. You should get it if you wont drop it though.

Reviewer: evelyn from mastic, new york  Fri Sep 08 2006

i recieved this faster than expected, and in great condition. it works amazing and im very happy with it!

Product Rating: 5 Great product for a great price.
Reviewer: Sue from Oregon  Thu Sep 07 2006

I love this flat iron, especially when I don't have to use anything in my hair for shine. It keeps it straight as can be even if you put your hair in a pony-tail; it still comes out straight. I have never had any other product work this way.
Thanks folica for making it available at a great price.

Product Rating: 5 Great Product
Reviewer: Robin from Purcellville, VA  Wed Sep 06 2006

I love this product. I have struggled with the frizzies for years and have tried many different hair products and irons. This is by far the best iron I have ever tried and my hair is stick straight for the first time in my life.
