I have extremely thick, very very curly shoulder length hair and it usually takes me over two hours to straighten it-- it took only an hour with the Solia, with minimal hair damage. I highly recommend it.
Good flat iron.

I'm using this iron for a couple months and I like it. Can't realy say if it is iron itself or a combo of the iron and all products I put on my hair. It is comfortable to use, has a nice handle and different temperature settings. Overall, good flat iron.
Pretty Good

i love that fact that when you straighten you hair none of it gets pulled or caught up by the iron causing breakage. it leaves you hair smooth and shiny. the temperature settings are great and accommodate every style and hair type. i like the iron but i don't feel like it works as good as the chi iron on my hair. i have long course African American, relaxed and color treated hair.
Its good and amazing

but sometimes when i am straightening my hair when i am pressing it it makes weird plastic sounds this due to the fact that its supposed to be lightweight and its inside is empty :P but its great and i love it although i live in Canada and it took me 2 weeks to get it ! OH GOD anyways yeah its good i recommended buying it .. I had a CONAIR NANO SILVER straightener be4 and it was not good as this because i had to fill it with water each time and it sometimes drops water and makes hair humid and i sweat a lot :P this straightener is amazing ... I GOT THE HOT PINK COLOR AND ITS HOT !
I RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO BUY IT ! ITS THE BEST !!!!
i luv it.! <3

I've had this flat iron for 3 months now. It's a great flat iron! I love it!!! I always wanted a iron that would leave my hair straight, smooth and shiny, this flat iron does this. I wanted my hair to look like natural staright, you know that some staighteners leave your hair straight but it looks like you straightend your hair. Well this flat iron leaves your hair nice, looks like yo have natral staight hair. I recommend this product 100%!!!!
GREAT !!!!!!

I was about to buy a Chi because of all the hype, but then I read all the wonderful reviews on this site about the Solia, and the awesome pictures convinced me to get it!
It is absolutely fantastic. My hair is thick and wavy and it remains straight until the next time I wash it, no matter how humid it is outside, and it doesn't feel or look damaged at all.
I'd used the Conair ceramic iron for years and although it did a great job considering it was so cheap, the scissor-type design was very uncomfortable after a while. The Solia is so comfortable and does the job in no time! I hope it lasts for many many years, my cat pulled the cord once and dropped it to the floor, and thank god it turned back on!
GET IT!!! LOL

I bought this solia maybe a month ago, although it is great it does have it flaws. after reading all the comments it built up my ideas about it... after 2 weeks i could start to smell it when i begin heating it up. It definitely gets my hair straight, but with the smell i'm not to happy. i do have extremely thick hair, although it is only shoulder length it still takes me a full 30 minutes to straighten it. i love curling my hair with it! it is wonderful but not what i thought it would be
SOLIA IS AMAZING!

I had a Conair for quite a while but it started to get really bad. Not heating up and ruining my hair. So, I went to Folica and found the Solia. Not only is it at an affordable price but is straightens hair perfectly! Doesn't snag or pull. There is no buring smell and it comes in HOT PINK!(YaY!) WORTH EVERY PENNY!
:P

I absolutely LOVE this straightener!! I'm half African-American, and most straighteners get my hair straight, but it's still poofy. And don't even get me started about any humidity, it's a disaster! The Solia makes my hair so sleek and so shiny and it STAYS that way! I curled my sister's hair and it turned out so beautifully! I would recommend this straightener to anyone and EVERYONE. The only thing I'm even vaguely disappointed about is that it doesn't run through my hair as smoothly as some of the reviews say it does. It sputters and jerks through my hair, but I'm thinking that it might just be something about my hair because it glides through my sister's hair just fine.
Best Iron Ever! forget ur CHI

This iron has the ability to straighten my hair in like ten minutes if I do it quickly. It keeps my hair straight for days and even though I live in the most humid environment it prevents my hair from frizzing. Also, it doesn't make my hair feel brittle, dry, or damaged like other irons. It feels silky and smooth and soft. It's completely awesome my whole family has it and most of my friends now since they always used to try and borrow mine. I recommend this to anyone who wants a professional style straightening.
Love it

I bought this flat iron a few days ago,and have had it for maybe 4 now,only been using it for 3 days but it is by far the best thing I've ever gotten for my hair. I'm African American with fine,shoulder length hair.I have baby hair that refused to go away and would leave humps on the sides of both my hair-even after a relaxer.I bought the Solia after getting annoyed with the cheap straighteners that smoke and take over 30 minutes to straighten.The Solia heats up quick but doesn't show smoke like the others-I also have yet to burn myself which is a shock to my friends and family.It does what it says,my hair is incredibly soft after using it and shiny.The baby hairs finally lay down,which is all worth the money for me.My only advice if you do purchase the straightener is to invest in some heat protection-although it doesn't show heat or smell like it is even releasing heat the thing is hot and could easily burn away at your hair.I use motions heat spray-their products work for me,but I think most heat products will do the job.
I HIGHLY recommend this product for anyone that needs a quality straighter that doesn't cost an arm and leg,doesn't like to spend FOREVER on doing her hair and wants to keep hair looking healthy and happy.
:)
I attached my morning hair(actually decent for once) and the after once straightened with Solia.Took a little over 10 minutes to do.
it's good...but...

Ok so i've had sooo many straighteners and the best one so far has to be the sedu, the new one inch. My girlfriend and I tried this one after my sedu, and it is good, it gets our hair pin straight, but it also snags and pulls our hair. We wouldn't recommend it if you don't want your hair snagged, but overall it does its job well. By the way, my hair is medium length and soooooooo curly. My girlfriend's hair is short and extremely curly as well. The one inch is best for people with short-medium length hair.
Exceptional Performance

I am a Caucasian male who has thick curly hair, and I hate it! I once have had my hair chemically straightened and it did not last over two weeks. I have tried a department store straightener and it just took too long and was frustrating to use since my hair would stick up and curl in weird ways--I had to go over the same spots again and again twisting my hair in the opposite direction. I just thought this was going to be my everyday battle, until I tried a professional hair straightener a friend of mine had in preparation for a wedding. My hair was straightened quickly and easily, and I knew I had to get one.
After two days of using this product, I would recommend it to anyone! I just crank up the heat to 450 F(since my hair has horrible curls) and just go to town for a few minutes... after about 15 - 20 minutes my hair is shiny and ever so straight.
GUYS DON'T BE AFRAID TO GO STRAIGHT, THIS WORKS FOR US! A MAN'S HAIR STRAIGHTENER WITH MORE POWER!!
This is an asewome straightner.

I BOUGHT THIS A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AND I WAS REALLY UNSURE ABOUT IT.
i'VE ONLY USED A CHI AND GOLD-N-HOT.
THE CHI NEVER REALLY WORKE THAT WELL, IT JUST DIDN'T DO A GOOD JOB.
THIS ONE IS AWESOME. IT ONLY TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO HEAT UP. IT CURLS MY HAIR PERFECTLY AND IT WORKS WAY BEtTER THAN THE CHI.
IT MAKES MY HAIR LOOK PERFECT AND IT ONLY TAKES ME LIKE 7 MINTUES TO STRAIGHEN IT.
I LOVE IT.
IT WAS DEFF WORTH THE MONEY.
Good Choice

This is my 2nd flat iron, but my first quality one. Heats up quickly, & smoothes out my thick, kind of coarse hair really easily. Styling product buildup cleans off easily. Swiveling cord is nice - never gets tangled. Size is perfect for short hair, but still handles bigger sections well.
Perfect straightner!

This straightner did everything i hoped it to do...swivel cord, dosn't snag on hair, heats up way better than my cheapo one, and leaves my hair smooth and shiny. It actually FEELS healthier and silkier when im done, unlike the cheap straightners....it also leaves my hair straightned for a longer time cuz i only wash my hair everty 2-3 days and it keeps it straight EVEN when i put in a pony tail! i would highly recommend
Amazing

I love this straightener. It works wonders. My hair is generally frizzy, and has nasty curls, and using any other straighteners just doesn't work. The other straighteners tend to fry my hair, break it, leave it frizzy, and make it smell like burnt hair. Whereas this straightener leaves my hair shiny, and smooth to the touch. It doesn't break my hair or make it smell. It straightens faster, and leaves nothing curly. In my opinion ,overall, its amazing and totally will pay off within the first use!. I would highly suggest it to anyone out there :)
