Cute but doesn't work

It's super cute.
And it's nice and light.
However, the floating plate design made the plates not touch each other. The tips line up, but then there is a gap along the rest of the plates. To get the plates to touch all the way I had to squeeze pretty hard.
The floating plates also have enough space on the end to snag a few hairs as you run it along.
Ended up pulling my hair out.
Switching back to a Chi.
WOW

Just wanted to let everyone know that this iron is really great. I use it on my hair which is curly and thin and hard to straighten and I also use it on my nieces hair which is couse thick and really curly and it leaves our hair like a china doll. We don't even get frizz. I highly recommend this product. Also what girl doesn't like a pink iron :)
Works great

I have use many other straightners and so far this one is the best one. My daughter uses it everyday and loves it. The case is handy because you don't have the cord hanging around.
So happy with this product!

My daughter was so miserable- she couldn't find a hair straightener that she liked and we had gone through two in less than a year. Her hair was looking dried out and damaged, and I wished she would just leave it to dry naturally. Then for her birthday I gave it one more try and ordered the SOLIA straightener- WOW- she loves this one- as do her friends, their moms, and everymorning is now a peaceful one- her hair is done quickly, she feels beautiful, and comes home at school's end to report how the compliments just keep coming- Her hair is shiny and soft/ totally healthy lookking and we are thrilled with the Solia iron.
I LOVE IT..EVEN THE COLOR

This is by far the best flat iron I have ever used! And the fact that it is pink makes it even better. Before it used to take so long to flat iron my hair and now it takes less than five minutes. I love it!
Solia Pink...Rocks!!!

This straightener is sooo awesome!
The Pink gives great results. I have purchased other expensive straighteners and they would fry my hair. I would only use the straightener for special occasions because I would have to use a protein pack for days, so my hair could be ready for the next time I would fry it with the straightener. I have hilighted my hair for years and I am able to straighten it every day with the Pink and my hair doesn't get sizzled on the ends anymore. It's so nice to straighten my hair in 5-7 minutes and be ready to go. If you use bleach for hilighting your hair, this is a great product. It works amazingly well to flatten and smooth hair. It also works great for sealing and controlling the ends of the hair and leaves the hair super shiny.
What more can you ask for...it's cute and it's a great product!
Not worth the money.

I am sorry to say that I was very excited about receiving my solia flat iron but was greatly dissapointed. I thought that with all the good reviews on it, it would be wonderful. The day that I got it, I immediately used i; (i wanted to do curls with it)but after a couple hours, it started faltering and did not stay softly curled. I was greatly disappointed since I spent a lot of money on it, therefore I sent it back. I had bought the curler mostly to do soft curls and flips. Then my sister told me about her friends curler that she had used, it was a Andis ceramic curler that she had bought from wal-mart for about fifteen bucks. She said she used it and the curls remain in tack for over 24 hours. I was hesistant but went and bought one for myself. I loved it. It works ten times better than the solia because it did just what my sister said and heats up just as fast as the solia. Too bad I didn't know about it before trying out the solia.
My daughter loved it!

She said it was her favorite gift ever and judging how good her hair looks, I can see why. The curling iron works just like she wants it to, and our hairdresser says we got a great deal! We would definitely buy from your company again.

Its a really good straightener but breaks my hair a little more than some of high end straighteners!
Way better than I expected!

I was reluctant to get this since I already had one..a revlon ceramic one that I got about 6 years ago. I thought it did the job perfectly fine but wanted to try another one. I was so amazed and shocked at how straight it made my hair! It did the job in half the time and got rid of all my frizz. I really couldnt believe it. I also love the pink color. Everyone should have one of these..im sooo serious.

-first off this straightner is a very very oh so very different color pink than on the internet and the box it comes in..basically the picture lied. the pink color is so unbelievably ugly...its worse then the pepto bismol color pink--way worse..
-now it does smooth out your hair and smoothes the frizzness and makes it very shiny and soft--a healthy lookin shiny and soft.
- i have very thin hair so i keep it on 370 and that seems to work perty good..im also an athletic and so i sweat a lot and when i go thru school the whole day is usually as straight as it was when i first straightned it..except for when i sweat-it gets curly--just like any other straightner would..i will post pictures of my hair before (without straighning) and then after (with straighning by the pink solia)
-also unlike the wal-mart straighners im used to using this one doesn't make my hair look burned and this straightner doesnt pull on muh hair like the walmart ones used to..
this straighner is over all "way better than my old wal-mart revlon straighner".. way BETTER..

I love this iron!! It doesn't snap my hair. I use my usual straightening products and the straightener just glides down my hair. It leaves it super shiny and soft and, again, doesn't SNAP! Totally worth the money!
great

so i got my PINK solia last X-mas and i love it so much. the year before i got a chi and it only worked for a year and i had to borrow my friends flat iron it worked pretty good but nothing compares to the solia. it is the best styling tool that has ever touched my hair. i would give it a million stars if there was room.

I just received my flat iron yesterday and I am so impressed with it. Not to mention the color, it's precious and the fact that it has a long cord. It took no time at all to receive the product. My niece likes it so much she will order her one. It's a product that I will gladly recommend. The heat temperature is also great, not too hot.
uneven plates, but satisfactory performance
Reviewer:

I ordered the Solia Pink on Sunday night and received it two days later on Tuesday. Unfortunately I discovered that the plates don't meet evenly. They only touch at the very ends of the iron, where the "feet" would be if the iron was a pair of "legs." It will snag your hair if you try to run your hair through that tight "feet" section. I called customer service (which is great, by the way!) and frantically searched the web for any info on "uneven plates on the Solia" and it turns out it's completely normal. It's not a defect. As for the iron's performance, I was pleased. My hair is very docile and straightens easily so I can't say anything for the ultra-curly girls. It heat up very quickly, the weight (very light) was nice, and the rounded edges let me flip in the ends a little. I've only used it once, so I can't comment on any long-term damage. I need to use it a few more times before I come to an ultimate decision. If the uneven plates thing gets to me, it's the Sedu 1" for me...
