Product Rating: 5 straight for days.....
Reviewer: lauren   Tue Feb 13 2007

this straightener gets really hot and cuts time in half. my hair stayed straight for almost 4 days with little touch up. i don't think this would be good for people with fine or thin hair .

Product Rating: 5 Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (1-3/4")
Reviewer: Tanya from Los Angeles, CA  Fri Feb 09 2007

This product is fantastic. I have had several other expensive ceramic flat irons and this one if by far more superior to the others.
For one, it leaves my hair soft and silky smooth. The others dried out the hair and the ends.
Two, it takes half the time to use.
Three, my hair stays perfectly straight until I wash it again. The others would require next day or even same day touch ups because the hair would start to frizz or curl.
Four, the ceramic plates are smooth and don't snag my hair, not even in the corners. Plus, the plates move as you run your hair through them which helps keep the heat distribution even and maintains a strong grip of the hair.
Bottom line, I LOVE THIS THING!I strongly recommend it.

Thank you to everyone who wrote reviews for this product. I am so glad that I got it. Works like a charm & now I can't live without it.

Product Rating: 5 Incredible!
Reviewer: Leticia from Dallas TX  Mon Jan 15 2007

I've used other straightners before but will never again. I'm hooked on the Solia. My hair is naturally straight but a bit course and the Solia gives my hair a silky, smooth look. I use it daily and it does not damage my hair. I absolutely love it.

Product Rating: 4 Great product !!!
Reviewer: Jelena Mandusic from Atlanta, GA  Mon Jan 15 2007

Solia's flat iron is really awesome, esp with a price tag of less than $100.00. I've purchased other brand name irons for much more, but none of them worked as well as this one. This gets my hair really flat. One thing that I didn't like, and this may or may not be to blame on the iron, is that my hair looked REALLY! parched after I was done using this iron. I had to add smoothing product, lots of it. But all in all this is a super product and I give it 4 stars. I definitely recommend this product to others.

Reviewer: Lintra from TX  Sun Jan 14 2007

WOW.....i love the Solia flat iron!!!!! I really didnt think it would work at all since i have such thick hair.....but it's done wonders!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!

Product Rating: 5 Love this flat iron!
Reviewer: Mende P. from Maryland  Fri Jan 12 2007

I have medium length, curly hair and this iron works like a champ! I had a T3 before but blew its circuit on a trip to Germany so I needed a new iron. I fully intended on getting the same thing but saw the reviews for this one (and it was cheaper!!) so I decided to try something new - and boy am I glad I did. It easily straightens and dosn't leave creases at the ends like some others but softly curls it under, over or leaves it perfectly straight on the ends (depending on how you turn it). Also, my hair does not get greasy after a day like it did with my T3 but easily lasts 3 days looking fresh - which is mostly why I love it so much. You won't regret this purchase.

Product Rating: 5 Works great!
Reviewer: Pat from Phoenix, AZ  Mon Jan 08 2007

I've had the Solia 1" flat iron for 2 years and just bought the 1-3/4" for my daughter after tiring of her lesser quality appliances breaking. The variable heat settings are a big plus, and the product performs beautifully. Solia has proven to make quality products.

Reviewer: Suzanne from Houston  Wed Dec 27 2006

I used a chi for years & it was great but I wanted something that would be a little better & larger plates than the 1 inch. It was good but not great. My hair looked silky unlike the CHI but I had a problem with it heating up to 450 as my hair is very long & curly I needed it that hot. I also had a problem getting close to my scalp. It would leave crinkles close to my scalp. I am returning it for the solia 1 1/4 plate. The Folica representative said it is the large plates that keep me from getting close to the scalp. I am sure the smaller one will be great. I really did like the way it made my hair feel silky and very straight. But I would recommend if you have very curly hair to get the smaller plate.

excellent

Product Rating: 5 Love it!
Reviewer: Sue from Key West, FL  Wed Nov 22 2006

i've been using a fairly inexpensive Wet-2-Straight product for the past fews months, but have not been satisfied with the results. I decided to splurge and, after reading other reviews, decided on this product and I LOVE IT! I have no idea how well the others work (i.e., Chi, etc) but I am a firm believer in this product.

Reviewer: Jules from Birmingham, AL  Wed Nov 22 2006

I'm new to flat iron usage because I have naturally straight hair, but it really helps with my fly aways. I use it with hair protector because I don't want to burn my hair.

Product Rating: 4 What an upgrade!
Reviewer: Amy from Little Rock, AR  Mon Nov 20 2006

My cheapo brand just stopped heating up one day so I started looking online for a new flat iron. I decided on the Solia 1 -3/4" because I read some of the other reviews. I have long, thick, brown, coarse, wavy hair and this flat iron turned it into polished, glossy locks. I was a little worried because I had read a few comments that suggested it was better for fine hair. I totally disagree! I do have to separate my hair into three layers to use but so does the salon when they flat iron my hair there. It's just the nature of having thick hair. I think I spent around $30 on my other flat iron and it never did the trick. Solia offers a great product with a reasonable price. Worth every penny. I highly recomend this iron regardless of hair type. I'm loving mine!

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.

Product Rating: 5 Finally found a fla tiron I love!
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 EXCELLENT
Reviewer: Carla from St. Catharines, On, Canada  Thu Sep 21 2006

I have thick hair, and this iron works great, I recommend this product to any one with thick long hair,

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.
