I've tried many irons in the past to straighten my hard-to-tame, thick, ultra-wavy locks...HAI, Hot Tools...but nothing compares to the Sapphire! After trying a friends, I knew instantly that I had to get it....it's a little big-at first, awkward to handle, but after a few times, you get the hang of it and you'll love it! It clamps down gently on your hair and SMOOTHES IT until perfect...no frizz!
Great Product

Just got my Solano Sapphire, i have never owned nor used a flat iron before but couldn't stand the instant frizz and bozo look when it gets humid out every summer. So i bought this after reading about it in numerous beauty magazines. I love the way my hair looks, straight and shiny. I blow out my hair first then, use the iron with a protection spray & gloss spray, and i get great results. Downside-the iron weighs alot and took me about a week to master the use of this iron without burning my hands.
I've had it for 2-3 years

It's a great product. Much better then using a large curling iron to straighten. My sister bought one and I used it. I loved it and got one.
The downside is that something happened with the wire and it shorted. It was within the year and I spoke to someone at customer service. I shipped it and they fixed it.
Afther that the bolt popped out and I am using a hair tie to hold the Sapphire together.
Overall it works well to straighten. I have wavey curly (frizzy) hair and I love to have it straight it straightens very well.
My next big hair purchase is a ceramic flat iron but I will wait on it till my Sapphire dies completely.
too large to maneuver

i love solano irons - BUT the one i had previously died within a year of sporatic use. i ordered this version and it's just too large (the 2 and 1/4 inch kind) to maneuver. the handle is really wide and just not easy to style with. it's awkward. i'm exchanging it for the 1 and 3/4 version instead.
folica is a GREAT company- and has been very easy to work with. the product arrived in two days, and they handled my exchange request quickly and respectfully.
Excellent Product

My hair stylist suggested this brand of flat iron and it is fantastic. The iron heats up very fast and the results are excellent. I have very thick hair and owned a very inexpensive iron found at a drug store. The results of that iron compared to this one do not compare. My hair looks like it does when I leave the salon.
Side note, I was really pleased with Folica as well. I ordered the iron in the evening and it arrived at my door in the am the day after. Wow, what service!
loved it, but.........

I loved my Solano, but it died after one year of limited use. Now I'm wondering whether to try Solano again, or buy another brand such as Chi.
Its great

I have extreamely curly hair, and it used to take me over an hour to straighten. With the Solano straightener I can get my hair straight in less than 30 minutes.
This Flat Iron is Awesome!

I dont think that i have ever had a better flat iron, although some people may prefer ceramic ones, they dont always do the job so well. If you know how to use the sapphire iron, it won't burn your hair, and you will be amazed with the results.
This iron is great!

I have very wavy, frizzy hair, and it's very difficult and time-consuming to straighten. Recently I had a haircut at a new salon where they used the Solano Sapphire Flat Iron, and I had to order one of my own. The service at Folica.com was great! I got the iron the next day, and I'm extremely happy with it. It grips your hair tightly but glides down without snapping hairs. The result is smooth and shiny!
best flatiron

I've been flat ironing my hair since 1998 and have tried many different styles (ie ceramic) and brands of flatirons but I always go back to this Solano Sapphire, it's the best one -- does the job fast and perfectly straight.
Fried my hair

I have long coarse hair, so I purchased this product beleiving it would do the job. Within the second time I used it, it broke my hair and it fried all my tips. This is an awful product and would not recomend it to anyone.
