Buy it. Your hair will thank you., February 3, 2009
After having used a $20 straightener just to see if I'd actually use one if I had it, I finally stopped wanting to fry my hair, and decided to upgrade. I picked this one out because of the long titanium plates, and because I'd heard an alarming amount of bad things about the Chi flat irons.
I have been so happy with this straightener. My hair is super straight, smooth, and shiny. I've gotten so many compliments on my hair since using it. It's glides right through my thick, stubborn, wavy hair. One stroke usually gets it perfect, some extremely stubborn parts take two. It's so easy and fast to use. I've got so much hair (a hairdresser once called me "Mufasa", if that's any indication), and I'm done in about 15 minutes.

BaByliss Pro Nano Titanium 1" flat iron, June 2, 2009
This review is from: BaByliss Pro BABNT3072 Nano Titanium-Plated Ultra-Thin Straightening Iron, 1 Inch (Health and Beauty)
I bought this flat iron, after almost choosing the Chi.
I've heard many stories about Chi's breaking after a year, which of course means no warranty. I didn't want to waste money on something that wouldn't last, so I searched more until I found this flat iron. Many people that had/have Chi's said that this flat iron is better.
After using it for the first time, wow! My hair was very smooth, sleek, healthy-looking, and straight! (obviously)
I'm so glad I purchased this flat iron, I was sick of my old one damaging my hair and not straightening it, or keeping it pin-straight all day. This one doesn't damage my hair (always use heat defense before using), and it makes it look even healthier. It smooths all the frizz, and creates smooth, sleek, healthy looking straight hair.
I've only had to use this flat iron on setting 30 (30/50 x 450 degrees), so I use it at 270 degrees and it's able to fully straighten my hair and keep it straight all day, until the next wash. Never use higher heat than your hair needs! You will only be simply damaging and maybe even burning your hair this way, leading to many split ends.

Awesome for black hair!, December 13, 2008
This is the best flat iron ever! I've searched forever for a flat iron that would work on my natural, super thick, curly, frizzy hair. And I finally found it. It heats up super quick and gets really hot. I use it with a hair protectant spray and it works great. Flattens my hair in one pass, so I can straighten it really fast. I would definitely recommend this product. Much better than other expensive irons. This one is your best bet!
