I use the slimline when I have short hair, or around the hairline/fringe, and the wide plate when my hair is longer. </p> <p>I remember back in the day (1998!) when straighteners first became all the rage.... my girlfriend had a GAMMA metal plate straightener that we blew up from too much usage :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2185064 Thu, 21 May 2015 01:38:27 +0000 AprilFool 2185064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a GHD. Well worth the money, I've had it since 2007. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2185037 Wed, 20 May 2015 23:13:29 +0000 StbHisMrs 2185037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rocker2014: That's what I'd been using until the plates fell off. I really liked it, I should get another. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2184461 Wed, 20 May 2015 12:28:43 +0000 lilteacherbee 2184461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Sedu and I love it. I'm only on my second one in 10 years. My first lasted 7 years before finally dying (and I straighten my hair almost daily). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2184440 Wed, 20 May 2015 12:09:59 +0000 HLK208 2184440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessKas: my BaByliss pro lasted for 6 years!! It was much better than the CHI (which I had to replace every year). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2184439 Wed, 20 May 2015 12:08:46 +0000 HLK208 2184439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used CHI for years but was never super impressed. Once the technology of flat irons improved - conair infinity has worked just as well. And I have insanely curly hair. </p> <p>I want the GHD but I can't justify the $$ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2184208 Wed, 20 May 2015 08:58:55 +0000 miramira 2184208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Extra wide GHDs that I've had now for 10 years! Worth every penny. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2184206 Wed, 20 May 2015 08:57:23 +0000 MamaG 2184206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have this one from Sephora that I've been using for 10+ years. I don't straighten my hair anymore (6 months) as I got waves that I like post pregnancy. But I still do use it to style my bangs, daily.</p> <p>I didn't know about ghd when I bought this. I've heard raves about ghd. I do like that this one has an adjustable temperature.</p> <p><a href="http://www.sephora.com/singlepass-professional-straightening-styling-iron-P257526" rel="nofollow">http://www.sephora.com/singlepass-professional-straightening-styling-iron-P257526</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2184196 Wed, 20 May 2015 08:45:33 +0000 Keybee 2184196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an old Chi from when I worked at a beauty supply store.

My hair looks just as good with it as it does with a Chi, and it has lasted a lot longer than my friend's Chi. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-hair-straightener-do-you-use#post-2184038 Wed, 20 May 2015 05:46:02 +0000 Rocker2014 2184038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've used a Chi, which is good, and a ghd, which was really great. But, I actually use this HSI daily, which is much cheaper and works the best of all of them on my hair (frizzy wavy).
