Reviewer: frizzy hair.   Sat Jan 05 2008

well on the site it had all the things saying how well it worked so i was really excited to get it. then when i got it, i hate it! it makes my hair all frizzy if you use the steamer. i hate it! i need a new striahgtener now. and it takes longer time to do my hair then my cheap straightener does. i put it on ten heat and still have to go over my hair about 3-4 times. its really annoying. and the mini glide one SUCKS too. dont buy it. !!!

Product Rating: 1 Dont waste your $$$
Reviewer: Carol   Fri Jan 04 2008

I straighten it and straighten it and nothing happens !
I hate it and I would suggest to NEVER buy it.

Product Rating: 5 Amazing product.
Reviewer: Lakyn from Dallas, Texas  Wed Jan 02 2008

This works amazingly on my thick, curly, dry hair. It makes it silky, smoothe and beautiful, I love it. The only real way the product could do something bad is using it improperly. I don't need to use the steam feature, so I choose not to, and it glides through my hair PERFECTLY after I comb through it with a sort of fine tooth comb. Anyone who has hard to straighten hair GET THIS PRODUCT. Don't mess with it too much or I see how it could break (don't try to go too fast, don't use the steam if you don't need it, don't try to adjust the temperature all the time), just use it like any other product. It's only a miracle product if you treat it correctly.

Product Rating: 3 The MAXIglide is...... alright.
Reviewer: Beth from Iowa  Tue Jan 01 2008

I've had the MAXIglide for a few months now, and I'm pretty much happy. I've used better straightners (CHI has to be the best). A few cons to it though. (1) It's super-heavy! But you do get used to it! (2)If you use the steam feature, the water leaks! (3) Many straightners can also curl your hair, this one can't. Only because it has ridges to FLIP your hair (not really into that).

Overall, it's a pretty good straightner! My hair is always straight, BUT doesn't always stay straight.

Good Luck!

Product Rating: 4 Its a miracle!...
Reviewer: Joy from Miami, Florida  Sun Dec 30 2007

...Those were my thoughts when I used the MaxiGlide on the first section of hair. I think the Beyond Straight and The End that come with it are essential products for getting good results. My hair is all natural, 4b, "black folk" hair and the whole process was painless on setting 4. It's not bone straight (because I love my hair too much to risk damaging it), but it is very manageable and soft. The steam feature works nicely. The process does take time, though, and leaves hair looking a little dry. Definitely prefer it to the old fashioned hot comb, especially because you won't burn yourself, even doing it yourself. And I imagine blow drying couldn't be as easy.

Product Rating: 5 I FELT SEXIER & SLIMMER INSTANTLY!
Reviewer: MRS. COLE   Wed Dec 26 2007

I just got my maxiglide today. I was skeptical at first because my hair has an old perm and is very thick and i didn't think this was going to work. I thought it would take forever to do and end up turning out badly. I started taking 1 section of hair at a time and using the maxiglide and i couldn't believe it. It was so easy!! I did 1/2 my head and showed my husband the before and after look. He was amazed! It takes alot to get a response out of men! I got so excited i finished the rest of my hair and to my surprise i actually looked like i lost 10 pounds and have never felt sexier. I used to blow out my hair years ago and stopped because it took too much time and caused damage. I always through my hair up in a scrunchie. Now, i can have that sexy look whenever i want and i have the maxiglide to thank! Thank you for inventing such a fabulous product!!! I will tell everyone!

Product Rating: 1 its not worth it

Product Rating: 1 Dangerous
Reviewer: Yvonne from California  Fri Dec 07 2007

I really liked the product until it turned into a safety hazard. It has interchangeable plates that slide on and off. I was doing my ten year olds hair and one of the plates slid off and burned her arm and it immediately blistered. I thought maybe I did not put the plate on right so when i checked it, it kept sliding off. It was defective. I returned it and because of the circumstance i was given a full refund. Now I am looking for a new straightener.

Product Rating: 5 the best
Reviewer: nancy from new york  Wed Dec 05 2007

i love this product i never found anything like it and to just blow dry my hair it would take me forever but now im done in less than 30 mins........its a keeper

Product Rating: 5 From a previous depressed curled hair girl to a fabulous confident straight hair girl.
Reviewer: anonymous from Missouri City, TX  Sat Nov 17 2007

I want to share this true story to all who felt the same way as I have. From my teens to my adult life I felt guit depressed about my hair. I felt my hair wouldn't looked good unless I tamed it with ponytails, buns, braids or twists that gave me headachs after awhile. I wanted hair that complimented my personality and set it free,I am an hispanic with very thick long curly hair. I've had my share of flat irons to try to staighten the curl and nothing worked. I've spent so much money on flat irons that gave me a dry hair look, split ends, and frizzy hair, this made me feel that straight hair just isn't for me until I saw the advertisement of the Maxiglide on T.V. I thought why not if it doesn't work I'll return it. Now 34 years old confident and with fabulous straight hair that seems as if I was born with it. I love it! I've been using Maxiglide now for 2 years. What really surprised me is that what usually takes me 2 and half hours to iron only took me,GET THIS 30 minutes! WOW! My hair looked amazing and it looked healthy. People believe I have natrually straight hair. Yea Right! If they only knew. I would recommend this to all who feel you haven't found that flat iron for that stubborn curly hair that won't straighten. It is amazing! Sorry I couldn't provide a picture. However, I feel very strongly about this product. I wouldn't waste my time to tell you this if I didn't feel this strongly about it. Enjoy your straight hair and feel the difference with Maxiglide!

Product Rating: 5 Works Great - Short-Lived
Reviewer: Robin from Pasadena, California  Fri Nov 09 2007

I can't remember when I bought mine - probably 2 or 3 years ago. It really did the trick for me. I found, however, the accompanying products for the hair seemed to help staighten my hair better, but seemed to dry it out more too. My hair is just mildly curly and wavy, but it makes my hair sleek and smooth. I recently started using it more regularly on my teenage son's hair and just this week the light continued to blink after 15-20 minutes and does not heat up anymore. It's a great tool, but it sure didn't last long! This seems to be a common complaint. I just wonder what makes it stop working! I unplug it after every use and never abuse it. Doesn't make sense.

Product Rating: 5 a mixed girls dream come true
Reviewer: Curly Fries from Chicago  Fri Nov 09 2007

I read the other people's review and for those of you who said it took you hours, I don't know what you're talking about. Both my sister and I are biracial and I have very curly, very long, thick hair (as does she). It takes me between 20 and 30 mintues to straighten my hair, which is nothing compared to the 2 hours of pain it takes with a blowd dryer and a regular flat iron. The trick is to do it after you have washed your hair and worn it for a day. Then your hair will not be too dry or too greasy. This is the only flat iron that has ever worked on me because it has those little combs. I love MAXIGLIDE!

Product Rating: 2 Did not work on my hair
Reviewer: laurent   Wed Nov 07 2007

I did not liked the product
because it would straightened
my hair right away but it left my
ends really dry and bad looking..

Product Rating: 1 maxiglide
Reviewer: Arlene from Florida  Tue Nov 06 2007

Worst iron i have ever used!!! The pins pulled on hair and pulled it out. Did NOT straighten hair like it said it would...And it took forever to get a patch of hair straight; NOt to mention it is so heavy and bulky. What a waste of money. My Sedu iron is much better.

Product Rating: 1 I do not recommend the Maxiglide
Reviewer: lori from Los Angeles, CA  Tue Nov 06 2007

It hardly glides it is so hare to get it through my hair and I have just a little wave in my hair. If you have curly hair you could just forget about it.

Product Rating: 1 Not what I expected......
Reviewer: Lou   Mon Nov 05 2007

It is not like the what you seen on TV.
I was not happy with it at all. I bought the Maxiglide and a Sedu at the same time. I am very happy with the Sedu.The Maxiglide did not help my hair any. My hair was still frizzy and it did not straighten my hair. I would not recommend this item. It is a waste of money!!!!

Product Rating: 4 good investment
Reviewer: Gia from Philadelphia, PA  Sun Nov 04 2007

I have had the maxiglide for about 6weeks and I haven't experienced any problems with it at all. I read some of the other buyers horror stories but I am happy to say I do not share in their woos. I did not think it was very heavy contrary to other opinions. I was able to cut down about 30-45 min off of my styling time for my hair with the maxiglide. My hair will stay straight for about 6 days but I need to rewash my hair anyway by then so its not a problem. I don't put heat in my hair after I use the straightner so that helps with the health and condition of my hair. Good luck to any future purchasers of the maxiglide.

Product Rating: 5 Love the maxiglide
Reviewer: Amy Say from Rohnert Park, Ca  Sun Nov 04 2007

This is the best tool for straigtening hair that I've ever tried (and my drawer currently has 5 different irons!) It's fast, easy to use and my hair stays straight all day.
I love it!
