-how muchWhat is a really good hair straightener?
As a stylist, I have used a lot of flat irons/hair straighteners, including Sedu, Hai, Infrashine, Chi, Paul Mitchell, Solia, Big Sexy, Andis, Babyliss Ghd, T3, Kenta etc. You should get a Professional hair straightener, they style much better and faster, and most importantly, they protect your hair.



In terms of performance:



The best ones are: Sedu, Kenta, Solia, Infrashine, Ghd. These are top of the line professional brands



Above average: Chi, Hai, Paul Mitchell,



Average: T3, Big Sexy, Andis, Babyliss



Below Average: Conair, Vidal Sassoon, Revlon, Bed Head etc. These are cheap consumer brands that you will find in drugstore. If you care about your hair, do NOT buy them.



=== Flat Iron Hair Straighteners FAQ ======



Q: What size should I choose?



A: For most people, 1';, 1-1/4'; or 1.5'; are all good choices. If you have very thick, coarse, long or ethic hair, bigger size (1.5'; or 2';) will save you some time. If you have thin, fine hair, get a smaller one (1'; or 3/4';).



Q: What temperature should I should on my hair?



A: Based on my expereince, 380F is the average temperature to use. If you hair is thick and coarse, bump it up a bit, if you hair is fine or overprocessed, start it at somewhere 300F, and try it. If the setting does not work well for you, increase a bit until you get a setting that works well for you but does not burn your hair. Trial and error.

What is a really good hair straightener?
the chi straightner



it is amazing, it lasts FOREVER, and it is ceramic also which is good for your hair, but not cheap quality ceramic like conair and paul mitchell.



a bit more expensive then your average target straightner, but worth it!



it doesn't even damage your hair, and it leaves hair soft and smooth
GHD - Good Hair Day. Its available I think probably on ebay somewhere for cheaper but its about 120 in Peter Mark hair salon nationwide. Its the best hair straightener around, also makes the hair shine alot better! Even for a blonde like me! : )
Paul Mitchell straightener. It's amazing. Ceramic-which is good for your hair. And it gets hot enough so that it keeps the moisture in instead of frying it. I think mine was like 50 bucks... Well worth it!
Get a Hair Rebond. It lasts for more than a year.

From 20-100 dollars depending on how long is your hair.

It's better you know than those hair products.
remington, it works great and it's only worth $20-50 aud
