I am black and filipino so my hair is somewhat thick, but really curly so I needed a flat iron with a lot of heat that can tame my curls. I used Hot Tools flat irons before which was very damaging for my split ends. Once I recieved this flat iron in the mail and used it, it was incredible! I was able to straighten my hair in about 30 minutes and it was completely bone straight! With just one run through my hair was silky, smooth, and perfectly straight. In the cold weather, my hair would usually end up wavy and frizzy by the end of the day, but my hair remains straight and smooth by using this flat iron.
I have recieved A LOT of compliments from my friends that my hair looked so great! They think that I got it professionally done. And I have nothing else to thank but this flat iron.
Seriously, this flat iron is the TRUTH. I recommend it to anyone and everyone!
SA-WEET!

I bought the solia 1 inch and I like it very much. It takes a little bit to straighten it and I don't like these litle hairs that stick up on my head when I use it, but it was slightly better than the FHI ionic ceramic straightener. I have very thick frizzy hair and it tackles it pretty well.
awesome!!!

I have never been in love before, but im pretty sure that that this is it! I love this straightener so much! it doesnt damage my hair, and it actually straightens it, not like most other straighteners that i have tried in the past! And it heats up so fast for when im in a hurry! Its one of the best things that i have spent my money on, and its definitely worth the 85 dollars!

alright. first off, i am a hair stylist so finding something of good quality to use on myself or clients is very important. i wanted a new flat iron and despite the fact that i have never heard of this brand, i bought a solia b/c it was affordable and it was very highly ranked. i felt that it didn't work any better than a drug store flat iron and that it made my hair look dull and unhealthy. i sent it back the other day. HOWEVER, i asked a co-worker of mine, what he recommended and he said in his opinion, the ghd irons are the best even though they are very expensive. i looked up the ghd pink styler on here and figured i'd go out and purchase one for cheaper at a professional shop. it was WAY worth the money! im gonna leave a review on that one now so buy it!
like it!!??.................. but it breaks!

Love the way it straightens and it is really easy to use. I liked it so much I bought 3 for my friends but in the last year I have had to replace all 3. It will suddenly shut off and not come on again. It does have a 2 year warranty(maybe thats why they offer it). You have to pay 9.95 for them to ship back to you. I feel that is unfair to the customer to pay to ship it back to them for a problem they are aware of and then pay an additional 9.95 for them to ship it back to us.
A GREAT Flat Iron!

After much research I chose the 1" Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron and I made the right choice! This iron heats quickly and has adjustable temperatures. I have found that using the highest setting seems to work the best -- one pass and done! I am not going over and over the same spot so my hair isn't damaged by the iron. My hair is thick and wavy and I iron small manageable sections and quickly get the desired result with this iron. Even in the humidity of South Florida, my hair stays straight and shiny for days. It is worth every penny!
Solia 1'' Flat Iron

After about 1 year of using my conair flat iron I started to notice that hair was extremly damaged. It was frizzy and had split ends even after straighting. I was between solia and the chi, but there were too many things I didnt like about the chi. The chi had no ajustable temp., burns hair, weighs 1lb more than the soila, theres no tormaline in the chi's plates, and I couldn't find much info on the chi's warrenty. After getting the solia Ive noticed my hair seems much more healthy. I don't have to put any product in my hair to get rid of frizz because there hardly is any. My hair is shiny and not dry at all. The ends of my hair look much better. I defanitly recommend the solia!
Its Okay

Works okay, its snags a little because the plates don't match up that great. It does heat up really quick though.

I've really enjoyed the Solia. In the past, I used a CHI, but after three of them broke, usually by the plates coming loose, I thought I'd try something new. The Solia is lightweight, reaches a higher temperature than the CHI (not necessarily needed, but nice to have), and has stood up to wear-and-tear through the four months I've been using it. My hair hardly needs retouching after running the Solia over it once (twice at the most). It's also small enough to flip the ends or create curls if needed. I definitely recommend the Solia - the price on Folica is also unbeatable!
Love this Iron

Got my iron in about 3 buisness days, in Canada! Great communication by Folica, fast shipping! Iron arrived by UPS, immediately tried it out. Loved the design & lightweightness of the unit, easy to read temperature dial, adjustable heat settings. Heats up instantly, glides through hair perfectly, no snagging or pulling! Really loved the self adjusting plates, puts perfect pressure on hair! Love that it came with a heat resistant pouch! Great unit for a great price! Had a hotsyler that I paid MORE for and love this Solia 1" way more. Excellent deal, really like this flat iron so far. Would buy another one again. My naturally curly hair looks great, really flat & shiny! Very happy, with this product!!!! Thanks Folica!
Heats up quickly, does a great job on my thick, wavy hair.

Does a great job. Heats up in seconds and flattens and shines my thick, wavy hair nicely. I went with a lightweight iron but maybe would've done well with a little heavier iron that was more solid? But really no complaints. Great value for the money.
the plates did not close enought to keep hair in iron for straightening.

Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (1") Review

I wanted to buy a quality flat iron for less than $100 so I did a lot of research in order to find the best value and this product kept showing up. The first time I used this flat iron the light seemed to not be working right and part of the hinge was loose/broken so I was pretty disappointed, BUT when I called folica they made an exchange free, fast and easy. Great customer service and my new product has worked well so far. A great company to work with and no worries about being stuck with a defective product!
AWESOME!

I did a lot of research prior to purchasing a straightener and after reading reviews I decided to go ahead with this straightener and I am SO glad that I did! This is by far the best straightener I have ever had and it is well worth the money. Before I always bought the straighteners that were $30.00, but I am so glad that I spent the extra money on this product because it is by far the best straightener I have ever used! It also does not pull out my hair like other ones do, which I found to be the biggest problem for me! Before it took me 10-15 minutes to straighten my hair now it only takes 5 minutes at the most! Purchase this ASAP!!!!!
Love it...

I wanted to buy a good flat iorn, but I couldnt decied b/w the Solia and Sedu. I ended up getting the Solia and I am very happy with my choice. It gets hot really fast and it stays hot the entire time. It gets really close to my roots (im AA so that is a must). I would recommed it to anyone looking to buy a new flat iorn.
