So glad I got this!
I bought this product on the Black Friday sale. It was a total impulse buy, as I had some money on a gift card and the reviews were really good. I love this straightener! I have naturally thick, slightly coarse/dry, curly/wavy hair that is almost mid-back. I have been using a cheap straightening iron that just takes forever and does an Ok job. Here are the things I love about this product:<br />1. It is easy and quick and takes so little time (compared to the more traditional straightener I own)<br />2. It doesn't burn me! It does get somewhat warm/hot, but it really doesn't burn like my other straightener.<br />3. You can use this to get some curl as well as straighten it-- my hair has some layers, so I get this great effect with a little body/curl at the end of each layer and the rest is straight.<br />4. My hair is naturally coarse and dry, and it can get really frizzy. It never looks smooth, in other words. With no product on my hair whatsoever, this straightener makes my hair smooth and shiny!<br />5. In the last 2 weeks, I've gotten 5 compliments on my hair from random people- some I know, some I don't! I absolutely love the way my hair looks after I use this.<br /><br />If I have to list some things I don't like about this straightener, I'd say that I have to hold my hair while using it (you can't just &#34;comb&#34; it down your hair, you need to hold your hair out so you can come through it) and although the straightener doesn't get too hot, my hair sure does! I also wish the back were flatter so I could lay it on its back while it's heating up.<br /><br />All in all, this was a great purchase! I've had it now for about 3 weeks, and I really hope it's durable and continues to work this well. My hair hasn't looked this good maybe EVER!
