    Cortex Flat Iron
    I like my cortex. It does a great job on my hair. I use it everyday, and my hair looks great when I am done! As with any type of product like this, you have to use something to protect your hair. I use It's a 10, and it works great. Even CHI has their own line of products they recommend you use when using their flat irons. And I keep reading all these reviews where some one has dropped it, and it has broken. Well, DUH! You can hardly fault the product if you don't take proper care of it. The Cortex is a great flat iron; I highly recommend it!

    Supernappyhair + Cortex = Flawless ! :))
    i Have Really Thick, Curly, Nappy, Kinky, Hair ! Every Friday When i Get Out The Shower iDry My Hair With The Blow Dryer For 10-15 Minutes So It Wasnt Completely Wet; Then iWould Clear Out The Knots. After That iWould Part It Into Sections And Start Straightening Little By Little. In About 1 1/2 Hours iWould Have It Perfect ! This Is Awesome ! iLove My Purple Cortex !

    Beware!!!
    I have (or had) beautiful, naturally curly hair. But, I went to an event and someone convinced me to let them straighten my hair. I ended up buying this product. The next morning, I washed my hair as usual. I have very even, curly hair. But, all my curl didn't return. Parts of my hair were curly, but the curl never returned to other parts. I even had an excellent stylist who has been working on my hair for some time (doing curly cuts) try to get the curl back into my hair. She said she had never seen anything like it. We ended up cutting the straight pieces. I never used the product and tried to return it, but she said all sales were final. If you love your hair...don't use this product. It will damage your hair.

    Decent While It Lasted.
    I have had a cortex for a year and a half. I just ordered a CHI Dazzle pink, because I dropped the straightener and a huge chunk of one of the ceramic plates fell off! Now it tugs at your hair even more than before. I hate it now, but it was alright when I had it. Wouldn't recommend it though.

    Ok But Not Worth The Money
    I bought this and it works fine if you use sparingly. It damages your hair a lot. my $20 straightner i had when i was 16, didn't do this much damage. You have to use ALOT of heat protection sprays just so your hair won't completely fry. Buy something like a sedu or chi if you want better results.

    It's Wonderful!
    So my cortex just got delivered to my mail box yesterday! I ordered it from foilca.comI heard about it through a friend whos older sister bought it from the mall kiosk for 200$ I paid 60$ + 15$ S&H What a steal from folica! The plates glide so smoothly over your hair and keep it straight all day long! But like other straightners, it wont last in misty weather. I love it already and its just a dream to use. Ive only had it for 2 days though. So I should write a review in a few months too.

    Great Iron
    Im transitioning from a relaxer to natural hair. I didnt want to cut all of my hair off and start over so I needed a good ceramic iron to blend the textures. This iron is the fantastic. Heres the best part...I got it from Marshalls for $30.
