Quite useless
Reviewer: chutney from napa   2009-08-12

I took this when I traveled out of the country and it was useless. You cannot control the temperature and it barely heated up.

Miniglide
Reviewer: Cola from Atlanta, GA   2009-06-01

I just received my Miniglide today and couldn't wait to use it...it didn't take long to get hot, and i only use it on edges (hairline), and it worked perfectly. I found out about it through my beautician she uses it along w/the Maxiglide on my hair, and w/both my hair gets so straight I was so supprised that she acheived this w/out using a pressing comb. I ordered the maxiglide(waiting on it)and can't wait to have all the things I need so I won't have to go the the Beaut as much; I can't say it enough Miniglide is off the charts, and you can put it so close to get those edges smooth and the way its made, it protects your skin, cause we have all had the pressing comb brand.....anyways LOVE IT! Also those that are complaining about it...PLEASE READ...it is ONLY for your EDGES (Hairline), and maybe u can use it on the ends, do not I repeat DO NOT use on your entire head, that is why the Maxiglide was made.

Gets the job done
Reviewer: Lorrain from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma   2009-03-25

I am African-American female that has owned my Mini for a number of years. I recieved it free when I purchased the MAXI. There are no chemicals on my hair and was using a pressing comb and oven prior to purchasing the Mini. With the Mini and the Maxi I can do my hair in half the time it took me to press my hair. The Mini is great for touch ups. I use it on my edges and the back of my neck to keep my hair looking fresh. I have recommended this product to several family members and friends and they have not been disappointed. Its great on trips too. You can't carry a pressing comb and oven around with you (takes up too much space).

YOU SIMPLY MUST GET THIS!!!

Okay let me just rave about this little iron........ it looks small but it PACKS A PUNCH! it heats up super hot but the temps are controllable via a little wheel controller. the hot plates (that have little combing pins) are very smooth and will glide through thin to average hair types {for thick hair and african american hair it takes a very slow hand and being very careful not to pull and pluck out the hair} If you wear hair extensions, weaves, or if you chemically straighten your hair: YOU MUST GET THIS because it gets down to those areas of natural hair to straighten them between touchups. It will make those roots look GORGEOUS!. This is soooo perfect for short hair because of it's very short plates. it also has a rounded kind of barrel that allows you to make a flip or even a curl. it's super sturdy and doesn't break and has a BRIGHT LED power light that's very pretty and can be seen from afar. an added bonus is that the cord swivels so that it doesn't get knotted

I Like it
Reviewer: Antoinette from New Orleans, La   2008-12-26

I got this flat iron as bonus when I brought the maxiglide a while back. I'm a license cosmetologist and I use this flat iron for around the edges. Sometimes it hard to get around the hairline straight because it so short. By this flat iron being so small and having "teeth" it gets those edges straight. It's not something I would use for someone's whole head even if their hair is short but I think its great for edges and little touch ups
