Bought this for my daughter to take off to college. She claims that she likes it much better than her old Chi (which she has now passed down to her sisters). She likes that it has tempaerature settings and she says that it is easier to compress than the Chi.
This is the best straightener!

I just got the new Sedu 2008 model and I just love it! I had a Chi before, but after just over a year of having it, the cord shorted out on me. Needless to say after throwing my Chi away, I didn't want to buy another one. So, I read the reviews and decided to buy the Sedu. My hair is naturally curly, but they are not beautiful spiral curls, they are very wavey. The Sedu straightens my hair with no problems. It has a temperature control on it and you can adjust it. It melts through your hair like butter! My hair is not easy to straighten, either, it is thick and coarse, too. So, I can't just go out and buy a cheap straightener and expect it to make it sleek. It does such a great job, that when I wore my hair curly to work, they thought I had gotten a perm. I said no, my hair is naturally curly and I straighten it. So, I just think this is the best straightening iron out there!
Great iron

Bought this iron 2 months ago and it is fabulous. I never had a flat iron before, returned the last one I bought because it dried out my hair like there was a drought. This Sedu heats up FAST, and I'm ready to go in like 5 minutes (after blowdrying). I have thick Asian long hair, slightly wavy. Wavy annoying, not wavy cute. This iron leaves my hair super shiny and straight. I have the CHI heat protectant, and that works great. Spray first, comb through, blowdry, and see the difference.
works well on short hair, curly/frizzy

This is my first time using this type of product. The video was helpful; my hair is straight and silky, not overdried, when I use it and I can sleep on it and the hairstyle looks good the next day! I have short curly hair with frizzy areas, and this tool works well. My hair does not seem dried out from use (I don't use it every day).

I got this for my daughter after she asked for one for Christmas. She has very thick hair. I do too. She came out of the bathroom and gave me a big hug, she said it works awesome and then proceeded to straighten everyones hair... It is better than the one we bought at the mall.

I am not a trained hair stylist and I get impatient when styling my thick somewhat wavy hair that looks frizzy if I just blow dry it. This straightener gives me wonderful results. Even if I "shortcut" and only give attention to the top layers and the ends, I still get good results. I really like the fact that I can smooth the ends under with the same tool used to straighten.

I am african american, and I have tried several flat irons and they all were the same. After reading several review, I decided to try the sedu out. I was amazed at how straight it gets my hair and well it curls my hair. It does not take long to straighten my hair with the sedu 2008. The sedu 2008 is by far the best straightner that I have purchased.
Success On The First Try!!

I am just over fifty, and have curly, frizzy hair, which I have been wearing in a curly chin-length bob for some time. Although I like having curly hair, I was tired of the same style for so long. I had my reservations on using a flat iron, since I was an utter failure at any sort of blow/heat styling methods I've tried in the past.
My very first use of the Sedu Revolution Nano was a shocking success! *Shocking* because I didn't think I could get the hang of doing it, and *success* because my curly bob was transformed into a straight, sleek, and sophisticated style in less than twenty minutes! I never, never, thought it would be so easy. Now I can love my curly hair *and* my straight hair.
No more fried ends.

I'm glad I bought this while it was $129.95. Anyway, this is probably the best straighteners I have ever used. I used to use the Conair Infiniti Ceramic straightener, and it worked well, but it always fried the ends of my hair and I always had to cut off the damage (I'm trying to grow out my hair). It took a couple of trials for me to get used to using this Sedu, but the results are fantastic. No more brittle, flat hair. I'll have to see how long this one lasts. Great product.
awesome!!!

Okay so I have tried Chi, Helen of troy and a bunch of other flat irons. this one is just AWESOME. My hair isnt very healthy right now due to highlites and coloring but with the Sedu my hair looks sooo shiney and healthy it str8ens my hair completely.. it flips it if i want to.. its great. i am a tough critic but this flatiron is great IT IS DEFFFF WORTH every penny. I know Chi sounds more popular but get the Sedu. you wont regret it.. I do have to keep it on 450 degrees to get the look I want but I have thick curly frizzy hair. and i have gotten so many compliments in just 5days!!!
Awesome!!

I am African American, and use the Sedu for the first time yesterday. It took me about 55 minutes to do the whole head, and my hair only reaches the length of a bob. I have not relaxed my hair since September and wanted to see some magic. I don't think this new revoultionary sedu is as great as it is made out to be. For the price I paid for it, i expected it to do magic. I expected the product to make my hair bouncy/swingy but NO it didn't. I had the temperature alternating between 400 and 450degrees F, and by the time i finished my head, it looked as if i needed to go over it again (AFTER TAKING MY TIME AND ALREADY DOING IT FOR 45MINUTES. Anyways, By the time i finished I, the amount of steam the came out during the process made my roots and ends of my hair all FRIZZY AGAIN. ITs like mopping a muddy kitchin with kids running all over the floor with muddy shoes at the same time!! It is quite difficult to get at the root of the hair while trying to avoid burning the scalp. My friend has used her cheap flat iron on my hair before and results seem very similary. I think it will work better on Individual who have their hair relaxed. I will be relaxing my hair in a couple of weeks as i have had braids in for the last several months. I will write back again when i use the sedu on my hair after it being relaxed after the 4th week. That may make a difference, and may bring the "bounce" back.
On the positive side, the delivery came faster than anticipated, as it was supposed to be out of stock.
Anyways, don't just take our advice here. you can buy it, try it, and if you don't like it send it back.
After all this, i WILL be keeping mine, but only because i don't want to have to keep replacing CHEAP ones, so in the long run, it may work out. :)
Overall Very Good Iron

I have had my Chi Turbo for four years now without any of the problems that other people seem to have. I've been very happy with it, but thought I should have a backup iron since my Chi is getting old. The Sedu was a good price, I'd read good reviews on on the other models, and was interested in having a 1 inch iron to do curls and flips. It took a while for me to get used to the Sedu. I had to move it a lot more slowly through my hair than my Chi to get my hair straight and I have to set it at a slightly higher temperature than my Chi to get the same results. However, I do enjoy the curls and waves I've been able to do with my Sedu. The only issue I have is that there is a space between the plates and the plastic at the end of the iron that constantly snags and pulls my hair. This never happened with my Chi. I have to take extra care that my hair stays away from that edge on the Sedu, which is really annoying. Other than that, I'm pretty pleased. I'd give the iron 5 stars if not for that defect.
Sistas! SEDU really works on African American hair

CAVEAT: I am a 100% African American woman who grew up getting her hair pressed with a straightening comb and marcels. I am not mixed. So, if you're a sista and wondering if I know what I'm talking about, I do. Trust me :-) After two years of wearing my hair in braids, my relaxer had COMPLETELY grown out. Expressing the desire to try something new, my hair dresser blew dry my hair and used a Sedu flat iron to straighten it. Boy, was I amazed at how healthy, silky and full my "real" hair was without all of those damaging chemicals. I immediately cancelled my appointment at the braid shop and decided that this was how I was going to kick off 2008 with something new. But, as you sistas know, having your hair dresser do your hair and doing your hair at home are two different things. :-) After a lot of research (I had not given my hair much thought for two years since I was rockin' the braids), I found that the Sedu tourmaline flat iron was the way to go. I bought the Sedu and haven't looked back! My regimen involves a weekly trip to my hair dresser to wash, blow dry and flat iron (I am not brave enough to try to wash and straighten at home), then during the week I mist it with Ion Heat Protection and straighten with my Sedu in the evening then roll my hair. I wake up in the a.m., slip out the rollers and I am out the door almost as quickly as when I had braids. Another tip: I use the Ojon Restorative Hair Treatment in the same manner as I would use hair grease. It is extremely light and nourishing. My family, friends and coworkers can't believe that I don't have a relaxer. I must admit that I have become addicted to checking the weather because I live in Florida where it is hot, humid and muggy, even in January. On a clear day my hair doesn't fall, but I have to be 100% honest and say that it does frizz up something awful in the dew and fog. I keep my old flat iron at work for me to touch up my hair if I have to walk into work on a foggy morning. Luckily, I have a private office ;-) But, weather aside, the Sedu produces fabulous results. The body and fullness that my hair now has is incredible. If you are a sista who is ready to stop burning her scalp on a monthly basis, try the Sedu. You'll love it!
A must!!

I was very sceptical when i first found this site. I had been looking for a flat iron for weeks. I even visited this site and read the reviews everyday trying to decide if i believed it or not.
When i ordered my sedu, it was out of stock and i had to wait 2 1/2 weeks to get it. I was so excited when I got it that i tried it on my hair right away. The first time that i used it, my hair pretty much got straight and stayed straight except for my front and back edges. But then i used it again the next day and they stayed straight so i think that i just didnt take enough time with my hair.
I am trying to grow the relaxer out of my hair and i needed something that would help me achieve the straight styles that i like to wear because i was doing to much damage to it with all of the chemicals. All in all, i would say buy it. My hair is soft and shiny and it looks like i put in a touch up and i really didnt. I just have to wait and see how it holds up to the humidity of summer.
Older version of this iron is better!

I had the older sedu and liked it so much, so I wanted to try the newer one. I regret buying it since shere is nothing better about the newer version and it's a lot less ergonomic than the older one. It's heavier too. If you are planning to buy a sedu iron, I suggest that you buy the older version and save $30!
