My hair is ridiculously thick (as in I can barely fit my thumb and forefinger around my pony tail) and the GHD is the only straightener I've used that can actually straighten my hair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-321423 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 19:46:39 +0000 MamaG 321423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have heard great things about GHD, mentioned by @KGE. I have a T3 an have had it for at least 6 years. I heard of GHD just after I got my T3. My next will likely be a GHD. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-321243 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 16:10:27 +0000 Pepper 321243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Croc, and it is amazzzzing.

My sister has had different ones about every year and anytime we are together she is like "Can I use your straightener?!" So I think that means it's awesome if she is asking to use it ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-320779 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 12:11:39 +0000 kge 320779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i have a GHD from when they started selling at sephora... so 6 years old? it is awesome and worth the $ IMO. it's never snagged my hair, heats up quickly and doesn't damage my hair (i'm also in the 2 cuts/year category) i would definitely buy another one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-320702 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 11:27:20 +0000 Adira 320702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've had the same Chi for about... 5 years now and it still works perfectly. I LOVE it!</p> <p>I do find that because my hair is so thick, I have to straighten it in layers. Not sure if maybe this is your problem at all or not, but I used to try to just straighten all of it at once and it never would get fully straight. Now I do it in four sections and it comes out great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-320682 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 11:18:34 +0000 Rescuemom10 320682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I kid you not...the day I responded to this...my chi died! I am so sad. Upset too! My first one lasted like 6 years. I got another and have had that one less than 1 year...with seeing what most have said about Chi's, even though I am upset it died on me so quick I think i will still stick with chi. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-315642 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 13:05:58 +0000 tororojo 315642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my Chi, haven't found anything else that straightens as quickly and gets the frizzies out. Mine is about as old as yours and is starting to get a lot of buildup on the plates though, which I never remember to clean off before doing my hair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-315550 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 12:26:05 +0000 pl0508 315550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Chi and I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-315549 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 12:26:00 +0000 Mrs. Lovejoy 315549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've had the same chi for 7 years. I think it's dulling out (doesn't get as hot) but still works great! Get another one! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-315545 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 12:25:07 +0000 matador84 315545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a tourmaline t3 wet to dry. I don't use it on wet hair much but it steams your hair and is pretty cool. Works great in regular mode. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-315515 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 12:15:48 +0000 Alivoo01 315515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsaudi: about 20 minutes West of OKC (Yukon/Mustang area). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-315482 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 12:01:59 +0000 doxielove 315482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a crappy Conair that I've had for about 7 years now. Eeek! Time for a new one. I'd like to invest in a nicer one, since the one I have now is a cheepie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-315480 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 12:01:22 +0000 ladyfingers 315480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Remington digital heat ceramic flat iron I got at Target for like $20. I love it -- I only really ever straighten my bangs, but I have used it a couple of times to do my whole head and it works great. You can adjust the temp up to 410, which is nice since I don't want to fry my bangs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-type-of-straightener-do-you-have-do-you-like-it#post-315471 Fri, 28 Sep 2012 11:57:36 +0000 Springtime 315471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: yep definitely living in the wrong state!

Works really well. I used it for 5 years and it got worn out and just bought a new one about a year ago.
