Product Rating: 4 Flat Iron Review
Reviewer: Janet from Bridgeport, CT  Mon Oct 16 2006

My hair is thick and curly. I've tried other flat irons but they never worked as well. The Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (1-3/4") heats up quickly and easily straightens my hair with 2 passes versus 4-5 passes with other flat irons. I can now straighten my hair in half the time. I would recommend it to anyone.

Reviewer: Michelle from Portland, OR  Mon Oct 16 2006

For most of my life I've struggled with accepting my naturally curly hair. I've got through chemical straightening (and burn my scalp) to straighting my hair with curling irons and really bad flat irons. I love my curly hair now and wear it naturally most of the time. There are still sometimes when I want a change in hairstyle for a little while and I'm glad I have the Solia to get my hair so straight. I loved it from the moment I got it and hope to keep it for a long time. I would recomment it to anyone who has tried all the others and not been satisfied.

Product Rating: 5 Best Straightener Ever!
Reviewer: Rachel   Sun Oct 08 2006

I purchased this product in 2004 and I LOVE it! My hair is naturally curly and frizzy, but the Solia flat iron makes my locks very soft and de-frizzes it. I've tried other straighteners, but this one's the best!
I love it so much, I bought a second one for travelling!

Product Rating: 5 I LOVE IT
Reviewer: Patricia from Placentia, CA  Mon Sep 11 2006

I did not think it would be as good as T3 Tourmaline, but I feel the Solia is the better appliance. I evaluated all your Wet-to-Dry Flat Irons, and I felt the Solia had all the features that I desired. I'm keeping the T3 as a backup.

Reviewer: kathy from roswell, ga  Thu Sep 07 2006

A co-worker had told me about this product after I raved about her hair. she said it was all owed to the Solia hair straightner. I love it!! I have very fine hair that has a part time job as a humidity detector. When it's humid outside, I look like Monica on 'Friends' (when she was in the islands). This product has really helped to straighten out the frizz and keep it that way all day long. No frizz, no curly-- out of control hair. It was a little bit more-- but totally worth it. I tried a couple of cheaper straight irons-- and they didn't last long. You won't be sorry.

Product Rating: 4 thinner is better
Reviewer: Moe from Vancouver  Thu Sep 07 2006

I got the 1 1/4 inch and then needed another iron, so to try something different I got the 1 3/4 inch version. They are both brilliant irons but if you're trying to decide betweent the 2, go for the thinner version. It just seems to work better.

Reviewer: Nicole from Niagara Falls, Ont, Canada  Wed Sep 06 2006

I've just recently purchased the solia 1-3/4 straightener and I absoutley LOVE it... i have tried many straighteners and this works the best. My hair doesnt get stuck in the straightner.

Product Rating: 5 Love the Solia flat iron
Reviewer: Kim from Woodstock, AL  Tue Sep 05 2006

I really love this iron. It works wonderfully. Very satisfied with my choice.

Product Rating: 5 I love it
Reviewer: Jane from Ypsilanti, MI  Tue Sep 05 2006

This straightener is the best I have ever had. It works for my hair which is thick and wavey and very hard to straighten. It takes about 30 minutes and its straight. My hair hangs to between my shoulder blades. My daughter who has hair to her waste and lots of it, loves it also. Makes her hair shiney and very pretty. Thanks

Product Rating: 5 Solia Flat Iron
Reviewer: anonymous from Gainesville, FL  Thu Aug 10 2006

I was hesitant to spend almost $100 on a flat iron. I am so glad I did. I can't believe the results.

I live in Florida, and in this heat and humidity the Solia gets my hair straight and smooth, and it lasts for days. I have thick, curly hair and the individual hairs are very fine, typical Irish hair. It is mid-back length, and broken in many places from clips and scruchies. Without styling, what I usually have is a frizzy ponytail, with zig-zag curls and some corkscrews with a fuzz all over. Just awful. Gel helped, but not much.

I have never been able to get my hair to look like the Solia makes it look without spending 2 hours and at least $60 in a salon. The Solia also works really fast, about 10-15 minutes to do my whole head. I got much better results from totally dry hair. When I tried it damp, it frizzed because the iron didn't dry it completely.

You definitely need some kind of protecting spray. I bought BioSilk,and I am not too happy with it. It's sticky, the spray clogs, and every time you use it, it runs down the outside of the can. A mess. And I think it dulls your hair.

I have had other cheaper flat irons. I will never ever use one again. The results are totally superior with the Solia, I guess from the high heat.

I love my hair now. Buy it. It will save you a fortune on products and salons. The free mat is great, and necessary.

Product Rating: 3 best if used occasionally
Reviewer: solialvr from atlanta, ga  Tue Aug 08 2006

This is a good straightener.. but i wowuld not reccomend using it everday. It dried out my hair and made it feel brittle after about 6 months of everyday use. I would say use it only occasinally. :)

Product Rating: 4 Fingers crossed!
Reviewer: MJ from Charlotte, North Carolina  Mon Aug 07 2006

This flat iron really is nice. It doesn't tug or pull and I can straighten my hair in half the time I could with my old iron. It's a bit pricey--well worth the money if it holds up, but I've heard from several people lately that it's the nature of flat irons to work for a while and then just die. So I have my fingers crossed that this iron will last a long time! If it doesn't, then it's back to the cheapos for me!

Product Rating: 5 Awesome
Reviewer: Kim from Royal Palm Beach, Florida  Thu Aug 03 2006

This straightener works very well. Little to no pulling of your hair, and very little damage done to the hair. I love it and it definitely cuts my styling time down as well.

I am satisfied :-).

Product Rating: 2 bad if used over time
Reviewer: melissa from texas  Wed Jul 19 2006

this is a effective straigtener... yet it dries out your hair over a period of time. After 4 months of use, my hair was completley fried.
