    Wonderful Product!
    Ive tried alot of irons but The Maxius Maxliglide is an AMAZING product that makes your hair soft and straight and feeling hydrated due to the steam and its ability to get SUPER hot!for thick african american hair like mines it worked beyond perfectly! I would even say that its a healthy alternative to chemical straightener because african american hair is tough and needs that strong heat to control it. There are quite a few heat settings and youre sure to find a comfortable setting to suite anyone. and you control the steam. Plus as an added bonus the product is sturdy and made WELL. Theres not gonna be any breaking of the machine or anything and theres plenty of places to holdon to it carefully so that you dont burn yourself or drop it.Plus that added perfect steam bursts that YOU control makes this machine a true dream come true!for thick or course hair I would say dont use the plate with the detangling pins as it will pluck out your hair. For normal to thin hair you should use the detangling pins but LOWER THE HEAT because you dont want to burn your hair.I havent yet used the special silicone product that goes with the Maxiglide but I can imagine that it must make the product EVEN BETTER! I cant wait to get a few maxiglides for my neices and cousins!{btw: for short hair try to used the miniglide as the maxiglide might not be appropriate for hair less than 5 or 6 inches long.}

    Perfectly Flat,straight, Fast And Totally Easy!!
    My Daughter has the thickest and curliest hair that anyone in the world has ever had!! and then after her Cancer and her treatments, it came back in twice as thick and 10,000 times curlier, its so bad an extra large hair band wont go around it once!!!! Anyways, with a little patience and in about 30 minutes she gets the flattest, straightest, and most smooth and shiny hair in the world!! Its totally awesome!! Nothing and I do mean NOTHING in the world has ever been able to get even 10 strands straight, let alone her entire head, and do it so quickly!! Best money spent, and best results, if you have hard to handle, and thick fat wavy and kinky hair, this is the best thing that youll ever in your life own!! I can guarantee that youll be satisfied, if you follow the super simple instructions, it works even better than it shows!! IT TRULY IS TOTALLY AWESOME!! BEST Money ever spent!! You WONT regret it!!

    Units Stop Working
    I have owned 3 Maxi-glides and have always had good results with the performance. The other people who complain about burning their hair probably have the heating element set too high. Those who complain that the units are not straightening their hair, are obviously not partitioning off the sections to get the best results. My hair has always come out great. My only problem with this unit is that one side ceases to heat up after using it for a time. The last unit that I got stopped working properly 5 days ago and the blue light just continues to blink, as one side does not heat up. I agree that the cost of this unit is horrible compared to the reliability of it. This company needs to guarantee their units for longer than just one year. This last unit that I own only lasted 18 months.

    The Only Straightener I Would Ever Use!!
    This straightener is awesome! I cant believe people are saying it is damaging their hair! I have been using it for 2 years and my hair stylist cant believe what a great job it does and she says I have perfect hair - no split ends or damage of any kind. Its the only straightener Ive ever used that works this well and fast - and I have very thick, curly hair. It takes some getting used to - how much pressure to apply (as you will rip out your hair if youre smashing it together), how to use the steam without getting burned (of course steam will burn you if youre not being careful) and when and how much steam to use (which does a great job relaxing the hair). I am just so thrilled with this product - I straighten my hair EVERY day with it. So I have used it at least 700 times and have absolutely no damage whatsoever. And mine doesnt stink either. I am not sure what thats about - are you using distilled water in it (tap water can have things in it that arent good to run thru the straightener). I dont think I could live without the MaxiGlide now that Ive had one (it would be really hard)!!

    Works Very Well
    I have had my maxiglide for over three yrs now and it still works great. Any flat iron is going to damage your hair and the maxi is no exception. However, it gets my wavy hair pin straight. I would recommend not using the steam or putting it on the highest setting. i try not to straighten my hair more than once a week so my hair stays somewhat healthy. So if your thinking about the maxiglide go for it. I works great but just be sure to use it in moderation.

    Wonderful
    I have thick naturaly curly hair and have tried to many irons. I cant even count them all. All of them by the end of the day my hair was so fizzy it looked terrible. With this one though I can actually skip using a few days and my hair still stays straight. It leaves my hair soft, beautiful, and I actually get complements, something I never got before both curly or with other flat irons.

    It's Not As Great As It Seems
    I bought the maxiglide 2 years ago and at first I was amazed with how healthy and nice my hair looked. I have thick wavy/curly hair of egyptian decent. After using the maxiglide a second time in my closed room, my mom walked in to notice nothing but a translucent layer of smoke that the straightener has been giving off. I have a long hair, about down to the middle of my back and now the ends are FULL on split ends and BREAKING HAIR! it already broke one and i got another one and now it just doesnt straighten well. My hair is poofy and extremely frizzy. Plus, the straightener has a hard time keeping up to the temperature its set at. Ill be straightening my hair and and ill hear this sizzling noise and the blue light will be flashing, indicating that its not at the desired temperature yet. Extremely disappointed with it. Would NEVER recomment it to ANYONE unless you want to throw away your money.

    Bad Texture, Pulls Hair
    I tried this based on recommendations for thick, curly, coarse hair. This was to replace 5 year old Jilbere that I loved but broke. The plate with teeth pulled my hair. I tried it with only the flat plates. They (obviously) didnt pull, but they didnt leave my hair feeling very good either. The iron "straightens" OK, but my hair didnt stay straight, and it felt - and looked - frizzy! I tried it with the sample products that came with the iron, and with my normal products. I ended up returning it, and got the FHI brand my stylist uses - I know that works.

    The Best Ever!!
    I have various flat irons to include the Chi, biosilk and hot tools spending so much money in my search for the the best straitening machine. Maxi glide is by far the very best and I have acheived the straightest and shiniest hair ever. Next best thing to going to the salon!! If you learn how to use and take care of your hair by buying the appropiate hair products to avoid heat damage your hair will be he silkiest and straitest ever. Enjoy

    Not Keeping The New Maxiglide Mp
    So I tried the new smaller Maxiglide. It was nice to have a smaller size iron made by them, but it was still clunky compared to other irons. I like the steam and my hair felt moist at the ends. But the pin plate was scary. I guess it was not completely excessive hair coming out, but it was enough to make me uncomfortable. I detangled my hair first (african american relaxed hair) and made sure I didnt clamp the iron down too hard, but still it didnt smoothly go through my hair. Its a nice flat iron for someone with already pretty straight hair that just wants it smoother and flatter. Other folks... I would use caution. I like the idea of steam, but I will try it with a different iron.
