My daughter absolutely loves this product. She has thick, frizzy hair and this is the only products that does the job. I love it because it straightens your hair fast.
My theory on the maxi-glide
Reviewer:

I've had my maxi-glide a little over a year. I've seen the infomercial and decided to order it on the shopathome network. My hair was very healthy prior to using maxi-glide. I've never used any kind of heat on my hair. Although my hair was healthy(at the time) I didn't like the way it looked. It is thick, coarse, and wavy. I longed for the straight look. So after recieving my maxi-glide i used it for the first time and the outcome was amazing. It was soft, shiny, and pin straight. But to my dismay after using it continuosly, my hair became dried out.And when it came time to straighten my hair it was more difficult and I never got the same result as the first time I used it. It was always poofy. My theory on this product is, a person who have healthy hair(to begin with) using this product will have an amazing outcome. So ladies, if u have damaged, bird nest...I wouldn't recommend it.

I bought this maxi glide because i seen it on t.v. and wanted it so bad but could not think of spending that much, but today i bought it and couldnt wait to try it out. My hair was super curly today and i went to use it and it took approx. 5-10 min to straighten my whole head. It came out wonderful, i had to call all my friends and family who have problems with doing their hair straight. Im so happy i bought this. It is so amazing....i went from over an hour of doing my hair to 5-10min...
Straight, silky, shiny and flat!

I don't understand why this doesn't work for people. I have big puffy annoying curly and very textured hair. This works wonders and takes about 15 minutes for my whole head. I agree it is a bit heavy, but it's no big deal. The people who can't get their hair straight must be doing something wrong because this is fantastic.
This is Great Stuff

From the very 1st time I used the product I've been extreamly happy. My hair is curly waivey and tends to just puff up and frizz in humid weather.
I went last year to a family reunion in the tropics of Mexico. The weather was extreamly hot 112F with heat index. To make long story short it worked great!!!! as long as I didn't get my hair wet the product kept it's pomise not to frizz or curl.
I've received no damige or falling out hair. Your hair only pulls out if you hold the maxi glide too tight to your hair. Other wise once you gain practice using the maxiglide you have no problems at all.

I think once you learn the correct setting for your particular texture of your hair the Maxiglide is awesome. I used it on my mother's hair first and it was amazingly beautiful compared to when she presses it. About a week later I used it on my hair it took me a moment to figure out the correct setting but once I got it my hair came out beautiful. It was shiny and bouncy just like when I get a hard press at the shop. I retouched the hair with the second plate to go to a wedding and it was better than using a Gold-n-Hot flat iron. I would suggest this product for those who want to save money on gettingg their hair done at the shop!!!!
Excellent for anyone with course hair

I am Biracial (african-american and puertorican) and I absolutly love the maxiglide. I washed my hair, oiled it and straighten it and I love how it came out. It doesn't burn the scalp if you use it correctly. I do not chemically staighten my hair, it natural and I was extremly skeptical but was pleasently surprised with the results.
Great product that works if you know what your doing

I love the maxiglide. I have been using it for about 1 year and like others, I swear by this product. However, to those ladies if did not like it or have success, it is because they didn't know what they were doing. Some comments were obvious that this NJ lady did not view the CD for proper handling and instructions for use. As the product says, it is a flat bed not a curling iron. So adjust your way of thinking and I believe satisfaction will be knocking at your door.

Good while it lasted...

Well, the Maxiglide was good while it lasted. It does what it says, straightens it in very little time (before maxiglide an hour and a half, with maxiglide about 30-40 mins), I have thick curly hair by the way, steamburst technology did wonders on my dry ends, took only a few passes for me, etc. However, those detangling pins can give you a heart attack. At times, it literally sounded and felt like strands of hair were being split in half. I honestly enjoyed this iron for that the time that it did work. It was quick and it worked. The on/off switch doesn't work, when it finally catches the plates don't heat up, and the blue light can blink for eternity with no result. So, here I am TWO months later, ironless. Maxius is willing to replace the item but i'd much rather not have to go through this every 2 months. Not to mention that they want me to send my personal information on a site that isn't secured. Would I tell a friend to use this? Only if they feel like having to go through the hassel of replacing the iron every few months. Save the 89.00 and buy the other highly rated irons on this site.
THE BEST FLAT IRON EVER....

I HAD USED CERAMIC AND OTHER FLAT IRONS, AND IT OFTEN LEFT MY HAIR DULL,STIFF, OR VERY FRIED LOOKING, AND NEVER EVER AS STRAIGHT AS I WANTED, BUT THEN I FOUND MAXI-GLIDE, WHEN MY SISTER-N-LAW DID MY HAIR. SHE TOLD ME SHE HAD SEEN IT ON TV AND BOUGHT IT. THIS IRON MAKES MY HAIR LOOK VERY POLISHED, SILKY, NOT OVER BURNED, DULL AND I DON NOT NEED TO PUT ALL KINDS OF SERUMS OR GELS TO GET IT TO LOOK GOOD.. I LOVE IT, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I HAVE HIGHLIGHTS AND THAT ALWAYS BURNS OFF YOUR HAIR, SO THIS IS GREAT, ITS WORTH THE MONEY.

I have spent hundreds of dollars and tons of years on hair
products, blow driers & trips to the salon for blow outs &
this product is amazing. Yes, I can see how if used too
often it can damage your hair, but I only use it every
4 days. My hair stays looking great after that. I have
very curly frizzy hair. I also use their products & 3 of
my frinds now are buying it.
amazing!!!best yet!

My daughters love the Maxiglide. This is the second one that we have purchased (the first one broke when my daughter got crazy and smashed it under a piece of furniture). Regular flat irons were literally burning her hair shorter and shorter so we looked online and found the Maxiglide and we purchased one immediately. The whole purchasing process is very smooth and fast and I would recommend this item wholeheartedly.
I Thank God for the Maxi-Glide!! :)

I love the maxi-glide. I am an African-American with seriously bad,dry,thick,and course hair. It is the only product that I ever bought from an infomercial that actually works. I was skeptical like so many becasue it seemed too good to be true. But once I received mine and started using it (after careful reading and following the instructions), The Maxi-glide transformed my hair. I am saving so much money on this thing. I no longer have to pay over $125/month at a salon and the best thing is, is that I only paid less than $80 for it. Hallelujah, thank you God for the Maxi-Glide!

One of my clients had me use her maxiglide on her hair yesterday, this is what I think after many years of using different flat irons: you have to make sure you get very small pieces of hair so that it straightens corretly, I thought it straightened very well without having to blow dry with a brush first, it also did leave the hair silky straight but here's my problem: if you use this flat iron on a regular basis your hair is going to eventually look like crap, because it really brakes your hair off, those tiny little bumps on the iron (the combs) will and do break your hair, they have to comb and seperate mostly every single hair strand and that is why hair breaks , hair is too weak to withstand so much pressure, pulling and heat, all at the same time, especially if you have dry curly hair.

Just wanted you to know that I have spent hundreds of dollars to try to appease my teenage daughter who has very thick kinky curly stawberry blonde hair.The kind most people would spend hundreds of dollars to get not get rid of!
Besides having her hair chemically straightened we have used a number of different irons for daily touchups. Your maxiglide is the only one so far that she can use herself and gets great results from!She loves the comb option attached to the iron.

This is the miracle product I've been looking for. I'm of Haitian-American descent and stopped relaxing my hair about 4 years ago- Even though I love my curls, I wanted that straight look once in a blue moon- Blowdrying did not cut it, especially in the South Florida humid weather. I was shocked when I first tried to Maxiglide. My hair was straight with only one glide. I made sure to part my hair small enough so that the result were right the first time. The results are like hot-combing, with less hassle. Buy it, it works!Everyone has commented on my new look. Excellent!

It use to take me 45 minutes to straighten my hair with a brush and blow dryer, and now it takes me about 10 minutes. I purchased another one just in case this one brakes ...who knows if I will ever be able to find this again.
