Product Rating: 5 Solano sapphire flat irons are the best!
Reviewer: Lori   Fri Mar 04 2005

I absolutely love my Solano Sapphire flat iron! I have REALLY wavy/curly hair, and this product takes it all out, leaving wonderfully soft, straight, shiny hair!

Folica shipped it quickly...and free, too! Thanks!

Reviewer: lindamarie from long island, n.y.  Mon Feb 28 2005

i was using Hot Tools flat iron for a few years and thought it did a good job, until i had my hair done at a salon and they used this one. ( 2 1/4 salano ) I thought it came out so great because it was done by a professional, but when I orded my ownand tried it i realized it was the iron !! It cut my ironing time down from one hour, to 40 min. and I expect it to get less as I get use to using it. ( I've only used it once so far ) my only problem with this iron, is that it gets my hair so straight, that I can't even get it to ' feather' back on the sides like I usually wear it. ( boy, I never thought I would ever say that my hair was too straight !!! )Anyone that says they don't like this iron is either using it wronge ( one slow 'swipe' to each section ) or is using it on damp hair, or is not using the correct products on their hair before use. I would recomend this iron to all fellow 'hair slaves' !!!!

Reviewer: Danielle from New York City  Sat Feb 26 2005

My previous flat iron was a Chi. Unfortunately, my Chi was knocked off a counter and broke. I didn't think twice about getting anything but another Chi to replace my out of commission flat iron. But, once I started researching the folica website, I decided to take a chance on an alternate brand and chose the solano sapphire. I was skeptical but pleasantly surprised at how much I prefer this iron over my old Chi. The comb brushes my hair as I straighten thus significantly reducing time. Also, the solano sapphire reaches higher temps than I remember the Chi doing. In hindsight, I'm actually happy that my old Chi broke because I am much more satisfied with the solano sapphire.

Reviewer: bianca ahmadi from california  Fri Feb 25 2005

I had this iron a few years ago and like the older version better. This one wasn't as tough and it didn't do what I needed. I am going to try and make my old one work. Older is sometimes better than NEW. Just made better and stuff.

Product Rating: 5 Best Flat Iron Ever!
Reviewer: Amy from North Carolina  Wed Feb 16 2005

This is the best flat iron in the world! Before this flat iron, I was NEVER able to wear my hair straight; now I wear it straight everyday! It is so easy to use. My hair is VERY frizzy and VERY thick! If this works for me, it can work for anyone!!! Amy (North Carolina)

Reviewer: Liz from Pennsylvania  Wed Feb 09 2005

This straightener is GREAT! It smooths out my hair and takes away all the frizz without leaving it dry and damaged. My hair feels silky and smooth and not at all straw-like. I definitely would recommend this flat iron.

Product Rating: 4 Best Straightner on the Market and DURABLE
Reviewer: Suz Yam from Saratoga, CA  Fri Jan 14 2005

I've tried all the other straightners that are available at any Beauty Store/Drug Store and in no way do they compare to the Solano Sapphire Flat Iron! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THOSE CHEAP ONES BY CONAIR, REVLON, ETC! Not only do they not produce desireable results, they fall apart! The Solano Sapphire Flat Iron might seem a bit pricy but it is well worth the cost considering it works so well and will last so long. It heats up to a temperature higher than the others which is why it produces such smooth and silkly results without the fried and frizzy damage. I've used the Solano Sapphire Flat Iron EVERY DAY for the past 4 YEARS and I've dropped it hundreds of times and it still works as though it were brand new! Please, don't waste your time and money on any straightner that costs less than $90! Invest your money on a quality straightner because you'll save much more money in the long run and look 10 times better! My hair is naturally wavy/curly and people actually think my hair is naturally straight after I've used this Flat Iron! BUY THIS PRODUCT! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!

Product Rating: 4 A Very Good One
Reviewer: Kaitlyn from Connecticut  Tue Dec 28 2004

Before this straightener I used a hot tools which lasted about a year and then broke. I only used it about once a month since i have really curly, thick, frizzy hair. It did the job but took me as least 2 hours. When it broke I decided to slurge on this solano. I've used it about four times and it took me a little less time to do then the hot tools. As I was going along and straightening, I didnt think it was coming out very well but when I was finished, it looked awesome. It made my hair the straightest it has ever been. The only negative thing I would say about it is that it would be better if the temperature settings were adjustable. Other than that so far it is serving me well.

Product Rating: 5 A terrific product
Reviewer: Susan   Thu Dec 23 2004

I have used this product once before and fell in love with it. My boyfriend then gave it to me for Christmas. I have only used it once since it came because he had to wrap it. However, this product is amazing. Other flat irons burn my hair and leave it feeling dry. This flat iron leaves the moisture in my hair so, that it ends up soft and smooth. This is a great product and I would highly recommend it for anyone who needs a flat iron. They best part about it is how quickly it works.

Reviewer: Jan from Kona  Mon Dec 20 2004

My hair is thick and really frizzy and this product works well on my hair. A lot better than the Conair and Wigo products I've tried.

Product Rating: 5 WOW!
Reviewer: Colette from Florida  Mon Dec 20 2004

I love this flat iron, it is even better than the one my hair dresser uses.

Product Rating: 1 an average straightener
Reviewer: Samantha   Mon Dec 13 2004

The straightener worked well the first two weeks after I bought it, and then it started to fall apart!

Product Rating: 4 awsome iron
Reviewer: Nicollette from Long Island  Wed Dec 08 2004

this iron is great. my hair is pretty thick, and with the iron it only takes me about 5 minutes to do my entire head. i find that this iron goes smoothly over my hair and doesnt completly fry it. true its a bit large but it covers more faster. i have had one for about 6 months, some of the prongs on the comb broke but the iron still works great. i love it.

Product Rating: 5 best hair straightener ever
Reviewer: Sarah from West Vancouver, BC, Canada  Thu Dec 02 2004

The best. Makes my hair really straight. Worth buying.

Product Rating: 4 solano sapphire
Reviewer: Marisa Manrique from Texas  Wed Dec 01 2004

I'm really enjoying this product. I had paid almost 300.00 for a bio ionic hair straightner, and i had to send it back because i did not work as well as the solano. I'm very satisfied. Thank You

Product Rating: 2 Too Bulky
Reviewer: wendi from new york city  Wed Nov 24 2004

I find it to be too bulky to manage. It also gets really hot. Maybe I don't know how to manipulate it yet.

Product Rating: 4 love it

Product Rating: 3 Great Concept - Poorer Quality than I Expected
Reviewer: Jeanna from Seattle  Thu Nov 11 2004

I purchased 3 of the original, professional Sapphire Flat Irons from Gene Juarez over the last couple of years (one for me, one for my sister and the other for a friend). They ROCK!! My mother recently wanted one too, but Gene Juarez no longer sells THAT type, so I shopped online. This is not the original model. It's your standard/average flat iron, but it works well. The plastic, on/off switch and durability is of FAR LESS QUALITY than the ones I previously purchased from the hair solon. I admit I was disappointed.
