The best flat iron ever!!!
Reviewer: Jasmine from Bridgeport, CT   2009-05-30

My hair is in a natural state, meaning I don't use a chemical relaxer on it. I used to, but stopped two years ago because my hair fell out from alopecia. I have been using this flat iron since last year (2008) and it gets the job done. My hair is shiny and smooth afterward. I know what most of the reviewers mean about the smell but I know that I am dealing with high, high heat. If you get your hair done at a salon, then you should be used to that smell when dealing with marcel irons and stoves!!! The plates get a little grimey, however with all styling tools they should be wiped off after every use; (it says that in the instructions!!)I am thinking about buying another one as a backup!! I have yet to find a problem with this flat iron.

eh it's okay...dries out ends
Reviewer: SJ   2009-01-18

I got this iron (limited edition Pink Leopard version) and expected it to be awesome cuz it was tourmaline ceramic...I was wrong. It's okay but my mom's naturally straight hair looks better than mine straightened with this. It also dries out my ends even when I use CHI protective spray. I'm goin for the Solia now; as for the last words for this flat iron...def not worth the money, a cheap ConAir would be the equivalent, if not better.

Burns your hair!!!
Reviewer: Ashley Finello   2008-10-22

This is the hair straightner that I got for Christmas last year. I didn't really care what kind of straightner that I got, as long as it was a thin one. I regreted getting this straghtner after a month!! It FRYS your hair. Whenever I turn it on, it even smells like burnt hair!! My hair is permanantley damaged now. I have semi-thick hair and I have to have a my straightner on a high setting for it to be straight. Mine is set at 350. I tried to lower the temp, but it wouldn't straighten. I would not buy this product unless you want your hair to fry INSTANTLY!!! Don't bother buying heat protecters, it wont help one bit.

Not very good
Reviewer: nascar.girl88   2008-07-18

I bought this product in January and by June it stopped working. It didn't have a very good grip in the first place. I would definitely not recommend this iron to anyone.
