This straightner stinks. i wish i never bought it. i read all the reviews so i bought it. i have the easiest hair to straight cause its so thin and already wavyish so i thought since everyone wrote all these great reviews i'd get it. it just came and i tried it and it doesnt do anything!!! my hair's poofy, not very straight, and frizzy! DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT!! ITS A RIP OFF!!!!!

it is VERY VERY hot, beware! i burnt myself and i use straighteners all the time and have never burt myself before. i was not impressed with the solia's ability to curl my hair, so if your looking for a curling iron too, this is not the best one to get. straightening time took the same or longer than before. the only good thing about it was that it made my hair shiny, but almost on the verge of greasy, therefore, i will return it and splurge on a kiyoseki pro straightener!!
Best flat iron!

This iron is great. I had a conair before this and it was terrible! It snagged my hair, left my hair damaged beyond belief, and fell apart in the end. The Solia runs through my hair so smooth, and I only have to go over my hair once to get it perfectly straight. People are writing bad reviews saying the plates don't touch, which is true, but it is such a small gap it doesn't make a difference anyway. I have thin hair and it worked wonders with me. The color will take some getting used to, though.
The Best EVER

I have naturally wavy hair, that goes down to my shoulders. i love this straigtner. It keeps my hair straight all day and it only takes less than 30 minutes. Its just as good as a CHI so dont spend the much money on a CHI spend less and you can get the smae results!
Mine just randomly stopped working!

I had a chi iron that stopped heating out of the blue and its almost impossible to get someone to fix it unless you have a recipt and are able to return it for a new one. So I bought a cheap $20 iron in the meantime until I could find me a better one. I came to this site and this iron drew my attention because it's pink so I bought it. This iron is fantastic! Great price and pink! I tried it and it dosen't make my hair frizzy or pull on it. The only reason that I wrote it's almost perfect because it is a little light weight(I was use to a heavier chi iron) but I really don't mind that fact. I wish I found this site before I bought my chi iron and wasted my money. This is the perfect iron at a great price and it's free shipping and it comes with the free pouch which is great when your using the iron and for storage. Don't doubt, buy it!!!!
Great iron

I love this iron, both because of what it does as far as straightening and also for curling. Very light, easy to use, long cord, heats up quickly and easy to clean. That's pretty much all you can ask for :)
love the hair straightener

i am thrilled with this product. was going to get a chi but reviews of it aren't great. this one heats up quickly, odes what it's supposed to and seems very sturdy (it's already been dropped a few times!) definitely recommend.
GREAT!!

i like the kind of iron that does things in a jiffy. since i have thick, long, untamable curly hair, its not that easy to make that wish come true. before i got this solia, i had a cheap-o 2 inch conair i got from sears for about $36. it worked like magic the first couple times, (mind you, it still took forever), but after the first month, its been taking 10+ minutes to heat up! i went from getting my hair done in 1 hour to 1 hour and 45 minutes! then i had to do alot of touch ups in the morning! i thought to myself as i was straightening one day "how long are you going to take this?" so i started with some research on better straighteners. i originally was going to go with the chi, but after reading all the bad reviews, i had second thoughts. the pink in this straightener caught my eye. after reading page after page of reviews i finally made my decision to buy this one. i used to free method of shipping (4-6 days) but i got it in only 2 days. i instantly tried it out and i was AMAZED! not only did it only take me 30 minutes (less than half the time with the old one) but it left my hair silky and shiny and smooth. i live in florida (humidity capital of the united states) so i expected my hair to shoot upwards when i walked outside but there was no effect on it what so ever! i would recommend this product to anybody out there whos tired of wasting too much time to get less-than-great results.
Ok straight iron

I purchased the Solia after the Chi I had owned for about 1 1/2 years broke. After reading the reviews it sounded like a really good iron. It was pretty good but I still liked the Chi better. I have been planning on buying a second iron (another Chi) and it is a good thing because after 1 year the Solia has quit. Of course it is after the 1 year limited warranty. I would have to say for the price stick with a Chi.
Solia Pink Limited Edition 1" Flat Iron - Great product!

I have been very happy wiht my Solia flat iron. I have very thick, coarse hair and a lot of it. I also have a shorter style which requires my to get as close to my scalp as possible. The Solia is comfortable to use, glides smoothly through my hair and produced the results I'm looking for. I belive it was a great buy.

I thought the Solia was ok, and would still prefer to use a CHI. I was kinda dissappointed the first time I used it because it was reviewed to be better than the CHI, and I was not pleased.

this straightener could work so good! i was deciding whether to get a chi or solia.. but i read all the reviews on the solia were way better than the chi's recall issues... so i picked this one. i was nervous my first time using it anxious to know if its well worth what the reviews describe it as.. and i was amazed. its way better than you would imagine it to be.. x10! it keeps my thin hair soft silky shiny and pin straight. incredible... seriously haha
I got it for the pink!

It definitely gets the job done but I don't know if I would tell my friends with really curly hair to get. My hair is basically already straight so i just need a quick run through and its perfect. But it is not a chi.. i wish i would have paid a little more and got one.

Definitely gets the job done as far as stick straight hair, although I would like to run it through my hair less times to achieve the straightness. Although i love this product, next time I might spend a little more so it can do the job a little quicker.
GREAT!!
