Im a 17 year old african american mixed with native american with a fairly good grade of hair to be black and i love the maxiglide. I have naturally curly hair, and when i wash it the curls are really tight, and it makes my hair look shorter than what it is, but the maxiglide definitly does what it says it will do. Usually when i do my hair myself it doesnt come out the way i want it..at all. It would always be frizzy, and really..NOT STRAIGHT! So when my birthday rolled aorund [2 weeks ago] the first thing to come to mind was to get a maxiglide, and I must admit it's the best thing a girl could get. [for her hair anyway] I cant stop touching it. It's so soft, and my hair doesnt smell or feel fried. I strongly suggest you get one..unless u have naturally straight hair..it wont work then. My friend was kind of upset..opps!!
u have to see it.. to believe it

when my sister first took it out the box, so that i can straighten my nieces hair..i was shocked at the way it made her hair so silky.. it was then i realized that i have to grow my hair and when i did...you should see the results...
Great if you want beautifully straight hair

Very good product and it straightens your hair dead straight however be warned that is pulls out alot of hair and is NOT for people with damaged hair as it will further damage the hair with all the pulling.
WOW

THE STRAIGTHNER PULLED OUT MY HAIR AND DIDN'T STRAIGHTEN MY HAIR I SEEN IT ON TV THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT IT BUT I GUESS YOU HAVE TO BUY THE SHAMPOOS OILS AND ALL THE OTHER STUFF THAT COMES WITH TO ACTUALLY WORK I WANT A STRAIGHTENER TO STRAIGHTEN MY HAIR BY ITSELF NOT BY PUTTING A BUNCH OF STUFF IN IT TO HAVE TO WORK RIGHT. IF THAT'S WHAT YOUR LOOKING FOR THIS ISN'T THE PRODUCT YOU WANT MY CHEAP STRAIGHTENER FROM WLAMART (REVLON) WORKED BETTER THAN IT.

My daughter and I have used the Maxiglide for 2 weeks. We are greatly impressed with the performance. It takes a couple uses to get the hang of it, but overall I highly recomend it for future customers.

Dont waste your money on this thing!!!! It sucks!! I bought this and i only had it for almost a week, and one day, i put it on for it to heat up...and then i finally went to go do my hair (5MIN.), and the removable plate part melted to the straightener, so i could not switch to the flat one when i wanted to, and it dose not do the job well either!...DO NOT BUY THE MAXIGLIDE!!!

I bought two of these and bot times the temperature dial broke. I would NOT recommend this product. I would put the 79.95 to better use and buy a different brand. DO NOT purchase this item. They don't last long, only about 10 to 12 months and they break.

I absolutly LOVE this product! Before I got the Maxiglide it would take me about 2 hours to sraighten my hair. Now it takes me 30 minutes max. This is a product that I can say actually works. All you non-believers out there try it for yourself.
I really like this product!

I bought this product after my sister in law let me use it and I searched the net until i found it. I love this product because it makes it so easy to have pin straight with not alot of fuss. I have recommended this product to several of my friends because I believe in it so strong.
I plan on buying one to keep at my office
Thanks Again for the great product

I love this straightener....I bought a second one for back up so that I won't be without. This truly gets your hair straight. My first one was a gift....because I would not have spent that much money on a straightener....I spend my money wisely and this is truly and investment for me....My daughter, sister and nieces use this as well....If you take your time and use it correctly you will get the best results....and the steamer comes in handy for those curls that just don't want to straighen....you will not be dissappointed.

I had to write another review for the Maxiglide. This is really really a big peice of crap. It doesnt even straighten my hair properly. Also it does burn your scalp and whats worse is that itll leave those nasty scab lines. It happend to me right on my forhead while I was trying to straighten my bangs... yeah not soo attractive. Another thing that really makes me mad is that it take FOREVER to get hot. I have to set like 5-8 minutes out everytime I use it just to get it hot. Also I have curly coarse hair but it takes sooo long to straighten it. And I have to pass the iron really slow in my hair just so that it could somewhat straighten it.And whats worse is that it doesnt last at all! I get so jealous when I see my friend (she uses a CHI) has prefectly straight hair that last ALL WEEK and mine wont even last ten minutes. And its true it really does yank waay to many hairs out of your head. And the final product is sooo disappointing because my hair isnt movable... it just feels like dry straw. And I have to use a ton of different products to somewhat tame my hair... All and all this is the worst investment Ive ever made. It really really sucks! I plan to just give this to my mom and ask her to buy me a Sedu.... just a really horrible product so think twice before purchasing.
Hopeful

My hair is wavy and curly but this product isn't any better than a CHI iron. In fact, it made my hair look drier and alittle more frizzy, even with hair products. Furthermore, the blue steam release button doesn't work properly. I definitely wouldn't recommend this to anyone. I was fooled by the infomercial.:(
This thing is AWFUL

If you are planning to buy the maxiglide: I shall now tell you your future:
The maxiglide will seem bulky.
The maxiglide will seem heavy.
The "advanced steamburst technology" will just add frizz.
The water from the steam will leak A LOT.
Your maxiglide will emit a VERY AWFUL burning plastic smell.
Your maxiglide will quit working after 5 months.
You will waste your money.
MY maxiglide did all of the above. Except on top of that, it melted shut 5 months after I bought it!! I read a review here where somebody said that the manufacturers claimed that they have never heard of that happening before. DONT beleive that, I have met other people online who said their maxiglide melted shut, too; as did mine. This thing is such a ripoff.
I tried to get sent a new maxiglide because I thought it was under warranty but apparently it's not. So if you're looking to waste your money, don't even bother with the maxiglide. Might as well flush 90 bucks down the toilet.
great product

A good Flat iron but who just wants good?

I am african american with african american, that should give you an ideal as to what I am dealing with. I watched the infomercial and decided to try the maxiglide. I was amazed and glad it took my non chemically processed hair and made it bone straight. only it still took me over an hour to do my hair which is better then the 2 it usually took. So in the beginning.....I was happy. Fast forward to six-7 months later. Noticed my hair was extreemly damaged those little teeth are great if you do not have afro hair, if you have afro hair, you will slowly rip you hair to shreads. The ends of my hair we ruthlessly split. Result: Major hair cut and in my angst I went into a protective hair style for a while. When I came back to my maxi glide which mind you is just over 2 years old and really only had been used about for 6 months it died. I think that was a sign for me to try another flat iron. I see great reviews for the Sedu so that is whatI have purchased. I recommend this is probably good, i really liked the steam feature. But I NEED a great flat iron. I say to African american women with very kinky hair the love affair with the maxiglide will be brief and dissapointing in the end.
