Love it... I recently had the Chi but that broke just like all the rest, and was a bit skeptical on how this would work and You know what I couldn't have made a better choice. I love it!

I think its faster than the chi and it has different temp. My hair is thick, and frizzy and course... with the sedu- it makes my hair shiny and straight... love it.

Reviewer: amber from california  Fri Apr 22 2005

this makes my hair 4 times silkier, flatter and straighter than the 2 inch chi turbo did. unlike the chi, this doesn't pull my hair. it heats up just as fast, but i know it works better than chi because my hair is still HOT a few more seconds after putting it through this iron. my hair stays completely straight for 2 days without having to restraighten it. my hair is also healthier and breaks less compared to when using the chi. i love it and will never go back to anything else!!!

OK, I admit, I haven't tried every single flat iron, but I've tried enough (especially of the cheaper versions) to know that this one is sensational.

As you can see, I have extremely frizzy white hair. I've fought it all my life. The Sedu is quite simply a miracle. For me, it's not so much that I don't like my curly hair, but flat ironing it allows me to go for a week without having to fool with my hair! The time I save is amazing. I washed my hair every single day for 30 years because if I didn't, the curls would fall out in some parts, flatten in others and frizz in others. The only way to control it was to wet it down every day, then pile on the product. Now, once a week, I wash and condition, then flat iron it. Does my hair flatten out during the week? Sure! But that's fine with me. For someone who has spent hours dealing with her hair, a little flat is perfect.

Hi everybody!! I bought this about a month ago and I totally love it. It definitely keeps my hair straight longer than my old one, and my hair is shinier and healthier than before. I have to admit, it was pretty expensive for a flat iron, but I think it was worth it. I share it with my sister, and she loves it too. So if you are deciding which flat iron to buy, this is the one!!

Product Rating: 5 IT REALLY WORKS!!

This is a GRRRRRREAT product! I must admit I was a little skeptical looking at it when it first arrived in the mail yesterday. I honestly didn't think such a small and lightweight product could really make a difference in my hair like others had claimed it did to theirs but as soon as I used I was AMAZED. It did just what other reviewers said it would: it straightened my frizzy, color treated hair, and made it so soft and shiny you'd think I got it professionally done. I would definitely reccommend this to anyone who's sick & tired of looking for that "perfect starightner".

Product Rating: 5 THIS IS THE ONE!
Reviewer: LINDA LASCO from Houston, TX  Wed Mar 23 2005

After recently having my WIGO iron crisp and smoke part of my bangs, I reluctantly decided to give yet another iron a try. Am I glad I did. The SEDU 1 1/2 inch ceramic is amazing! My hair is soooo soft and touchable (except for the crispy spot in front). It even helps smooth out the fried part (to my delight). I have friends with the Chi iron that will very probably convert to this little miracle. It is very lightweight and easy to use. So glad I gave the SEDU a try. I am converted for good! Cudos to the SEDU folks!

Need I say more. This is the best out there and better than the Chi I thought.

Make sure to always use some sort of sealing cream or gel. I use Biosilkk or Rusk Lusterizer Deep Shine. Otherwise your gonna fry your hair every day and you will cause this one gets really hot

Product Rating: 5 BETTER THAN ANY STRAIGHTENER!!!
Reviewer: Daniela from Enumclaw, WA (THE RAINY STATE THAT MAKES YOU HAIR FRIZZ)  Sat Feb 26 2005

THE BEST STRAIGHTENER, BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY IT IS BETTER THAN ANY OTHER. DON'T LISTEN TO THOSE WHO SAY THE CHI IS BETTER BECAUSE ITS NOT, I HAD 4 OF THEM AND THEY ALL BROKE AND DIDN'T EVEN COMPARE TO THE RESULTS OF THE SEDU!!!!! I LIVE IN WASHINGTON WHICH HAS LOTS OF RAIN AND MAKES YOUR HAIR FRIZZ, WITH THE SEDU NO FRIZZ!!!!!!

Product Rating: 5 Got exactly what I wanted..
Reviewer: Faiza from Buffalo, NY  Fri Feb 11 2005

Let me begin by saying that I am more than satisfied and impressed.

I bought this straightner after being bored one afternoon, coming upon this website, and reading everyone's reviews on the sedu. I had been thinking about purchasing a CHI because my roomate here in college has it and it worked amazing in my hair. Both of my parents are Pakistani so I have extremely thick and coarse hair. One of my guy friends even told me that my hair felt like bamboo sticks once! I have also grown it out so that it is down my back. My first straightner was a conair one. It was horrible. I dont think I properly used it a single time. The second one I got was Revlon. Compared to the Conair, I couldn't believe how amazing it was. It however died approximately 8 months after I purchased it. My mother got me the vidal sasoon straightner that also has the steam heating option. It was HORRIBLE. It never straigtened my hair well, and it took hours to do so. My friend donated me her Hot Tools straightner, and once again, I was really impressed with how fast and and nice my hair came out with it. My hair always got caught in it, and after using my roomate's CHI, each time I used it, I could literally feel like as if my hair was getting damaged by it. I came upon this website, read the reviews for the SEDU and decided to buy it rather than the CHI. Ordering was easy, shipping was free, and it got here in 4 days. SO SO SO impressed!!!!!

When I used it, my hair literally turned into silk. I didn't even blow dry my hair. It's been 3 weeks now since iv had it and I have decided that it works best after blow drying hair (just so that its somewhat straight anad the curl is out- it looks like a fro at this point). I then use the sedu, and within 10 minutes (compared to hours before, perfect for a college student!), my hair looks like the way I always wanted it to look. Not once has my hair snagged, despite the hot setting, I dont feel like its burning my hair like the Hot Tools did. It amazing. Iv started getting compliments on my hair by everyone. My roomate that has the CHI really likes it as well. All of my Arab girl friends who have thick dark curly hair, are thinking about purchsing a Sedu for themselves. I think the best combination to having FABULOUS moviestar/shampoo commercial hair is the SEDU and Tex shine & frizz repair drops (availale at most salons for 15 dollars or so). :) If you identify with any of this, order this thing- trust me u will never be so grateful.

Product Rating: 5 WOW!!!
Reviewer: Dee from Mississippi  Fri Feb 25 2005

This is the best flat iron ever. I have used the CHI, the HAI, just to name a few of the better ones.

I received my Sedu today and used it immediately. My hair is softer and shinier than it has ever been just after one time. I have very fine hair that is frizzy if I do not use a flat iron. I live in Mississippi where it is humid 75% of the year and sometimes even more. I think this is going to be the last flat iron I have to buy. I hope my hair stays as straight and silky as it is now, when the humidity is at its high.

I would recommend to anyone out there that is researching the many flat irons to stop here and get the Sedu. You will not be disappointed!!!!

Product Rating: 5 "Straight" Up Honesty
Reviewer: Lori from Fayetteville, AR  Wed Feb 02 2005

This is my 2nd week with my Sedu and I'm very happy with it. I gave it 5 stars because it gets the job done as promised. Its very light-weight and glides smoothly down my hair. However, I must say that you should be careful with the temperature settings. This is not aimed specifically at this iron, but the Sedu does reach a very high temp. I have wavy hair that has been slightly dryed and damaged due to everyday heat styling and setting my Sedu any higher than 170 makes my hair feel dry and brittle. My hair does stay straight much better compared to my old jilbere, and also straightens in about 10 minutes as opposed to 15 or 20 minutes with the jilbere. My roomate has a Chi and it takes her longer to straighten her hair even on a higher setting. Also her Chi is not smooth gliding as mine. I'm happy with my Sedu and I know you will be too--just be careful not to burn your hair on a high setting!

Product Rating: 5 FABULOUS
Reviewer: Shay from Chicago  Sun Jan 23 2005

My sedu does an excellent job of straightening my very thick and curly African-American hair. It has really smooth plates, so it doesn't pull my hair like the chi iron. I just got it a few weeks ago, so we'll see how long it lasts.

Product Rating: 5 MY HERO!
Reviewer: Sarah from Chicago  Thu Jan 20 2005

The Sedu flat iron is amazing! I seriously have the worst hair in America and I have tried everything to tame it. Buying this flat iron was my best move so far. The iron gets extremely hot very quickly and it makes doing my hair a fun, quick, and enjoyable experience. I would suggest this product to any and everybody. I used to have the Chi before this and it did not work nearly as well.

Product Rating: 5 Loved It!
Reviewer: Yolanda from Detroit  Mon Jan 10 2005

I used this on my un relaxed freshly blowdried but still frizzy hair and it worked a miracle. Usually I need to flat iron twice before it looks straight however with this flat iron at a setting of 180 it did the job with one try. I left the house and did not get frizzy once I walked out the door. This thing gets really hot--I would recommend not going above 180 and even at that temp test a piece of hair first without holding it on the ends too long! Definitly worth the money!! I would only use this after a wash not every day. This worked better on my hair than the Chi Turbo ceramic flat iron!

Product Rating: 5 THE BEST THING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO MY HAIR
Reviewer: karla from Miami  Mon Jan 10 2005

I am extremely happy i bought my first Sedu Ionic Ceramic Professional Flat Iron... Before this product i had the CHI iron which is also great... But nothing compares to the miracles that this iron does to my hair... Without having to blow-dry my hair prior to using the iron and everything... it is AWESOME!!! I have wavy hair... i just let it air dry... and VWALA!!!! the iron makes it as straight as straight can get. I recommend this product to anyone that wants their hair to look nothing less then perfect!!!

Product Rating: 5 THIS ROCKS MY WORLD
Reviewer: Sammy   Sun Jan 09 2005

This hair iron is AMAZING its so great, i have really fine hair but also a lot of hair and this thing does the trick for real guys... it makes the CHI line of irons look like crap, the SEDU lasts so much longer and doesnt pull your hair out... its GREAT buy it NOW!

Product Rating: 5 The Best Yet
Reviewer: Katy N. from Phoenix, Arizona  Fri Jan 07 2005

This is the fifth flat iron, including the Chi, I have purchased in my quest to tame my thick, coarse, wavy hair. It is by far the best. It is not only the most comfortable, lightest and therefore easiest to use, but it leaves my hair smooth and feeling in better condition than when I started. It lives up to its reputation in my opinion. Can't wait to show it to my hairdresser.

Product Rating: 5 TRUST WHAT YOU SEE..it really works!
Reviewer: Dotty from CA  Thu Jan 06 2005

I bought the sedu straightener and it works better than all the other ones of owned.

I have short thin hair but its really frizzy and curly. On humid days, this STILL kept my hair straight. This is a wonderful product and i DEFINITELY recommend you all to buy this, for all hair types, just use it as intructions are told! It's great so if your looking for the perfect straightener, here it is! Better than CHI, SUPERSTAR, TCP, and FHI! ive had them all! this is the best...!

Product Rating: 5 Better than the CHI
Reviewer: AJ from MidWest  Fri Feb 18 2005

This is the best flat iron out there. I have owned the Hai and Chi and this is far better.I've NEVER seen my hair look and feel this good with so little effort. I am not exaggerating, this is an awesome iron!!!!!
