YES! I have 3 daughters, all mixed with Caucasian/ African American. One is 6 years old and I use it once a week on her hair and every time it amazes me how straight her hair gets. Her hair is VERY course, so I put it on the middle setting, about a 5 and it works wonderful. Her hair isn't breaking or falling out and we have been using it for about 3 months. It also works miracles on my other daughters, 11 and 15.

Let the girl be curly.In order to make your life easier you are going to burn her head

I haven't bought one yet, but I thought you might like to know that applying any type of heat to wet hair (including blowdriers) - but especially something hot which makes direct contact with hair - will singe and/or remove moisture from the hair. Think about it - what happens to water when it hits a burner? It turns into steam and disappears (evaporates). When there is moisture in the air, this is called humidity. So really, by causing that moisture from your hair to float up into the air around you, you are frying your hair and creating your own little humid environment around your head - which, for us frizzy-headed girls, isn't a good thing. Hope this helps! :)

well my aunt just bought one and she let me use it and you seem to have the same hair as i do and it really does work, but you have to go over the strand of hair about 3 or four times! i liked it so much though that i am asking my parents for on for christmas!!!

I actually have both irons- Wet to Straight and the maxiglide. I have used the Wet to Straight once, and it wouldn't straigten my hair even after 5-8 times!!! And it really can't be that great for your hair if it's sucking the moisture out. WIth the maxiglide I go over 1-2 times, and it ADDS moisture with the new steam system. It's really great, you'll love it!! IT's deffinitely worth the investment, since cheap irons tend to be damaging and not work

My hair is thick and it looks dry. it is curly and passes my shoulders. my student did my hair friday it looked great!!!! until sunday everyone loved it. it leaves your hair shiny and silky looking. you don't have to put any other products in it and it only took 2 slide per strand. i loved it, it didn't freeze up or nothing..

I have 3 daughters that are African American and like your daughter's hair, their hair gets very frizzy and out of control. Until now I had to keep paying for expensive relaxers, but now we have the Maxiglide, no need for the relaxers. Yes, her hair will look like she just got a perm. It really does work that good. I know what you are thinking, I was thinking the same thing- that there is no way it will work on my kids' hair, but it did and it works wonderful! Their hair doesn't break off and it looks so smooth and I only have to do it once a week after we wash it. It see it working because of the pins- they are actually straightening each strand of hair instead of just flattening it. Also, if your daughters' hair is as course as my kids', I would start off on setting 5, then you may need to go up to a 6. Needless to say, this product has saved me a lot of money and time.

well...you can watch the dvd that's included and it should tell you... look for two little pegs at the top of the plate, one on each side. squeeze them together and slide the plate out..and to replace it you just slide it back in until it clicks. to clean it i think you just scrub it with a damp washcloth but i could be wrong. just make sure you let the plate dry completely after you clean it, because if you slide it back in the straightener and plug it in when it's still wet, you could get electrocuted.

Unfortunately when the light will not stop blinking and the top half is not warming up anymore.. the maxiglide is broken...dead! I had mine for 1 month and it did that I threw it in the trash and purchased a Sedu..now that was the best investment!
