Farouk CHI 1 Inch Ceramic Flat Hairstyling Iron

I purchased from Ulta for $129.99 and it broke after 3 months. I'm purchasing my second one from Amazon at a lower price - hope this one does not break.

Besides that I loved the flat iron when it worked.

After 55 years of battling my curly hair (frizzy is humid weather) I can now have straight hair! This is way easier to do than the iron and ironing board that I used in my teens. It stays straight for days if you don't get your hair wet. It heats up really fast and is easy to store.

I ordered this product because my stylist uses it. So far so good, it delivers amazing heat, so be careful. I was concerned with how light it felt, but it works really well.

Mine died in two months and the warranty is not good unless you buy it thru an approved salon.

I have shoulder length wavy hair- and have always longed for straight hair. The people who cut my hair have used a Chi and I always loved how it looked, but attributed some of that to the professional expertise of the hairstylists. I decided to treat myself and buy the Chi and really learn how to get my hair the way that I like it ( smooth and straight)
I love this Chi. It's great- it is completely different from all the cheapie straighteners out there. It straightens, makes it soft and smooth.
I use a spray on my hair ( Matrix Gold in a black bottle- smells great) and then I get to work on my hair. People compliment my hair- and i just really like how it looks. I feel like I have had a blow-out every day of the week.

For people who are concerned about the price, add up all the things that you have bought to straighten your hair ( creams, gels, cheapie straightners) and then just go and buy the Chi- it will be the best money you have spent on your hair.

Also if you have a little extra- go ahead and get the Chi hairdryer. I used to think a hair dryer was a hair dryer, but no more. I have the Chi 1300- and absolutely love it.

Here's to good hair days for you readers!
