What is the best hair straightener?

I currently have Matrix Sleek Look and I find it works like crap! Help !What is the best hair straightener?
Hey :-)

(Jenifer Aniston uses the straightener Im about to reccomend - honestly she does, first I doubted it but so many websites say she does! -And other celebrities too.)



Okay, I have been researching hair straighteners for like a month. You need to decide for yourself but here are the top brands: Sedu and ghd. I know you may have NEVER heard of ';Sedu'; because it is sold exclusively through the world's largest online beauty store. Folica.com



You need to look for one with:

*** Toumaline technology (hair naturally produces positive ions, but toumaline produces extra negative ions and therefore smooths the hair cuticle and means less damage is done)



*** Look for a ceramic (NOT cermaic coated, it has to be all ceramic) plate straightener with Tourmaline infused into the plates.



I e-mailed ghd and they do NOT use toumaline (t-or-ma-line). Also they do not have adjustable heat settings so it remains at a constant high temperature which is NOT good for all hair types.



***So look for adjustable temperature.



*** A good straightener (or ';flat iron';) goes to minimum 200 degrees Celcius.



*** A swivel cord so that it doesn't get tangled and annoy you while straightening.



-I have heard that the brand 'CHI' is VERY BAD, some have CAUGHT on FIRE!! (Seriosuly). People just tell you to buy them because they are popular, not good quality!



Check out Sedu straighteners (which have all the above features) at: http://www.folica.com/Sedu_Flat__360_1.h/a>



All the best :-) Ps. after all my research I've decided to get a Sedu straightener!What is the best hair straightener?

Farouk CHI 1 Inch Ceramic Flat Hairstyling Iron

From CHI

Buy new: $67.34



Product Description



Chi Original 1'; Farouk CHI Ceramic Flat Iron Model GF-1001 The CHI can be considered

one of the most versatile Hairstyling Irons on the market today. The CHI's ergonomic

design allows the user to flip hair up or curl it under with a twist of the wrist.

The CHI is ideal for straightening and smoothing the hair while the ceramic plates seal

in natural moisture. It's great to use prior to a Dry Haircut. The ceramic coated paddles

help prevent scorching hair color and helps reduce styling product build-up. Featuring an

extra long swivel cord to prevent tangling, the CHI has a concealed on-off switch inside

the handle to prevent accidentally turning the unit off when in use. The heat paddles are

recessed from the edges to prevent skin burns. Will automatically heat up in less than 10

seconds. Temperature is preset at 150-180 degrees Celsius(302-356 degrees Fahrenheit)

I would either recommend a Hair Art or Chi.



Chi's tend to short out alot but they work really well.



I just ordered a HairArt from Amazon.com and it was $100.00 even and it works fantastic!

It has these liquidized crystals within the ceramic plates called tourmaline, it makes your hair soooo shiny and sleek. It keeps your hair straight for longer too and it goes up to 410 degrees.



I recommend the HairArt over the Chi anyday!
CHI's do not last long. They break way too easily. Don't waste your money, and don't listen to the one's that are telling you it's the best. Sedu is one of the best straighteners out there and it is only $100.



To purcase a Sedu at the cheapest price, go to Folica.com , scroll to the very top and click on Hair Styling. On the left hand side, there will be and A - Z brand list. Find Sedu, click on it, and everything else from there is self - explanitory.



For more information on a Sedu, you can go to sedubeauty.com.





I would also recommend using a 1 inch instead of 1 1/2 inch, because the 1 1/2 doesn't do curls very well.



It reaches 410 degrees, with tempature control if you would like a lower tempature. CHI does not have tempature control. That means if the set tempature is too high for your hair, it can fry.



Celebrities have nice hair, and they don't use CHI. They use Sedu. There is something called Sedu hairstyles on every beauty website. No CHI hairstyles right?



Never use on wet hair.



Also, on Folica.com, people can post reviews on products after they have tried them. Here are they stats on CHI:



72 people say it is 1 star (bad) out of out of 1257 total reviews.



Sedu:



24 people say it is 1 star (bad) out of 3814 total reviews.



That speaks for itself!



If your hair starts to get damaged, turn down the tempature.



Take a look at this.

Note how CHI is number 7.

Note how GHD is number 4.



Sedu is the top flat iron and there is proof!

Or if you want something a little cheaper but also is still better than the CHI, get a Solia, it is second in line to the Sedu.
THE CHI.

i have really thick, wavy hair and i love when its straight..

i bought my chi for about $160, but it was absolutely worth it.

its quick, and when i straighten my hair its silky and straight.

and it keeps it looking healthy, not damaged.



don't buy an immitation chi. i heard they dont work as well. and most stores will tell you that they dont carry the chi because it has been recalled, but you can probably get one from your hair stylist.

thats where i got mine.



goodluck
the chi is good .. BUT it breaks easily and burns your hair

just read the reviews about it.

the SEDU is awesome and around $110. ( i have had that one for over a year and its still good) it heats up fast and leaves your

hair really smooth.



go to www.folica.com

and look for hair straighteners there.

thats were i got mines and if you dont want that one there are

millions of reviews there so you could chose which one

to buy.
i like the gold n' hot brand. its in expensive and works good. sure you might have to go through your hair a couple of times. but thats depending on how thick your hair is. :D
chi

they r very expensive but they r well worth the money

once you use one you know its a chi
the chi
a chi
