2-Stage Styling and Advanced Technology:
You’ll love what the new high-tech 2-stage styling system can do for your hair. As nano silver makes plates glide smoothly through hair, Tourmaline Ceramic™ smoothes hair's cuticle layer to protect it from heat damage. The 2-step styling system first infuses hair with conditioning steam, and then locks in all that healthy moisture with heated plates. The results are sensational: silky, shinier, pin-straight styles that last! The advanced Nano Silver Tourmaline CeramicTM technology and the 2-stage styling system lets you achieve longer lasting salon-straight looks, every time you style!

Retractable Detangling Combs:
The retractable detangling combs separate tangles and tame even the most unruly frizz! The detangling comb spreads the hair strands evenly between the plates to detangle while straightening, providing uniform results from roots to ends. Three different comb heights, high, low and off, make this the perfect straightener for any hair type, even thick and coarse textures. The three settings let you choose from low to maximum tension control. Set the comb height that is best for your hair type. Nano Silver Tourmaline CeramicTM coating on the combs provides smooth glide and shiny, healthy looking results.

Steam Benefits:
Automatic multi-level steam function steams hair straight while smoothing the cuticle layer and helping to lock in style. Conditioning steam helps add moisture and shine to hair, so you get salon results at home. Simply fill the removable water reservoir and pop into place for up to 20 minutes of hair-conditioning steam. The steam feature may be turned on or off, and you can choose high or low steam settings depending on your hair type for perfectly smooth and straight results. For coarse hair, select the high steam setting.

To Fill Water Reservoir remove reservoir from unit.  Open rubber reservoir cap and fill with distilled water.  Replace rubber cap and snap back onto unit.  Warning: Never remove when hot.  Allow to cool before filling.

Ionic Benefits:
Ionic properties neutralize positive charges in the air, reducing the static electricity that dulls hair and causes fly-aways and frizzies. Hair instantly becomes more manageable and shiny. The ionic steam straightener is equipped with a true ion generator that releases 2 million ions/cm3. Steam and ions create increased softness and brilliant shine for flawless results.

Nano Silver Tourmaline Ceramic™ Coated Plates:
Micro-particles of nano silver coat the straightener's surface. The fusion of ceramic and tourmaline gives the plates optimal resistance to the highest temperatures and guarantees the integrity of the surface. Your hair glides through the plates effortlessly, without friction. The integrity of your hair is preserved. Keeping your straightener's easy-glide plates clean is effortless, because of its nonstick surface. Simply wipe plates with a damp cloth after each use to remove any product buildup.

Electronic Temperature Control:
The new ionic steam straightener with electronic temperature control generates ultra-high heat that is capable of straightening hair in only one stroke, without damaging it. Four ceramic heaters ensure fast heat-up to 202°C/395°F and keep the temperature constant and uniform while straightening the hair. Five temperature settings allow you to choose from low, for fine or processed hair, to high, for coarse, thick hair.

Tips for Using Heat Settings:
If your hair is delicate, thin and easy to straighten, minimum heat will be needed.  Set the temperature control to a low 285°F.  Average to thick or chemically treated hair will straighten best at a medium heat of 310ºF.  Thick hair benefits from medium to high heat at 330°F.  Coarse, hard-to-straighten hair requires high to maximum heat at 360oF to 395°F.

Professional Pouch:
The ionic steam straightener comes with a high-quality, multi-layered, heat-resistant professional mat and pouch. The 2-in-1 storage pouch and counter mat folds and snaps closed to store your hot styling iron safely. When straightening, rest your steam straightener on the open mat to protect your countertops
from heat.

Gets the Job done, .. I guess.
Reviewer: Jessica from Ottawa, Canada   2009-10-08

I've own this straightener since Christmas of 2008, and boy have I been waiting to get a new one. I dont know how to describe this straightener. It's sort of bulky and heavier then others I've tried. Mine makes a rattling sound every time you pick it up, which kind of gets annoying after time. I see some people have rated this straightener 5 stars. This is not a 5 star straightener. I'm going to write the Pros and Cons of this straighter for you to see. Pros- 1/It can get you STRAIGHT hair 2/Gets fairly hot (400F) 3/Gets hot quickly (around 20 seconds for lowest setting) Cons- 1/ The prongs bend super easily 2/ The top blade gets hot, so you can't hold it down 3/ The plates DO NOT seal completely when they are closed! 4/ There is little bumps on the plates that are annoying 5/ Prepare for split ends, even using heat protection. 6/ Leaves hair more rough then silky 7/ Doesn't work with the weather 8/ Does not flip/curl very well My suggestion: This straightener isn't worth it's price for sure. Don't buy this straightener if you plan to play with it for more then a year, or you will end up in the same situation as me. This straightener was a HUGE upgrade for me from the old 20 dollar one I use to own, but as time went by, I realized that I could of done much better. This straightener will work for you if you can't order online because it is available for the same price at WalMart. If you are planning on ordering from Folica.com, then look up other brands. Search for Solia and Sedu straighteners before you decide that you MUST get this straightener.

Really works!

HOLY CROW. amazing
Reviewer: Julianne from Houston, TX USA   2009-08-28

at first when i saw this straightener i thought it would act like my other conair straightener, which is really bad and made me spend about 20-30 minutes straightening my hair. I have wavy, unrelieable hair that sits just above my shoulder. However, when i asked for a good straightener, i was very surprised to get this one. i immediatly went to the washroom and straightened my hair. I was so shocked! it worked AMAZING. the only drag part about it is that the steam chamber only holds so much distilled water and runs out easily. But I can live with that!

not as good as i thought it would be
Reviewer: shelby from new york city,new york USA   2009-08-27
