It has several different temperature settings and works great! I've owned it for over 6 years and haven't had any issues yet. I think I paid $60 for it on Amazon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flat-irons#post-1625254 Fri, 09 May 2014 16:18:36 +0000 HLK208 1625254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Babyliss Pro and it's been great...for over 5 years! I have big, curly hair that I have to flat iron every day. Also, a big factor is my blow dryer which has a straightening attachment. I have to REALLY focus on the roots of my hair and get it completely dry in order for my hair to stay straight (sounds obvious but I was only spending 5 minutes blow drying a few years ago and hated how my hair looked after a few hours).</p> <p>My CHI's were just okay but each one died after a year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flat-irons#post-1625252 Fri, 09 May 2014 16:17:38 +0000 woodentulip 1625252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have always lusted after the chi ones, but I didn't realize that they don't have temp controls! That's a big one for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flat-irons#post-1625251 Fri, 09 May 2014 16:17:36 +0000 Mae 1625251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on my second Chi and have mixed feelings. I feel like it works SUPER well, but I just had to get a second one bc my first one crapped out after 2 years-- which seems a bit short for something that expensive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flat-irons#post-1625242 Fri, 09 May 2014 16:16:16 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1625242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my remington!<br /> <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod2670015" rel="nofollow">http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod2670015</a></p> <p>@loveisstrange: I'm not a fan of chi either- mostly because it doesn't have the temperature control! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flat-irons#post-1625234 Fri, 09 May 2014 16:13:58 +0000 loveisstrange 1625234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an Amika and it's fantastic. I have very coarse, stubborn hair and it does agreat job and leaves my hair soft. I've used CHIs before and really hated them. I felt like it took forever and left my hair dry and frizzy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/flat-irons#post-1625226 Fri, 09 May 2014 16:11:18 +0000 woodentulip 1625226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So in my history of flat irons, I have always just bought what was on hand. The most recent purchase was when we were driving through a small town and I realized that I had forgotten mine, which is my simple go-to hair styling solution, and we were heading to a wedding!<br /> So, that one just died. And it seems that there are lots more on the market now than I remember last time I was searching!<br /> So, does anyone have any insight? Sedu? Solia? Chi? Something else? Hit me with your best thoughts! </p>
