This review is from: FHI Heat Platform Professional Ceramic Tourmaline Styling Iron 1-3/4" with Nano, Fuzeion Technology (Health and Beauty)

This flat iron is a good quality product, especially for the Amazon price, which is much less than FHI's website. I liked how it is comfortable to hold (compared to the Hana elite iron I tried before) and the wider plates work well since I have extremely thick, long curly hair. I had an FHI iron that I purchased in 2004 that was kind of noisy -it would creak when I pressed the plates together- but they seem to have solved this problem with the new platform series. One thing that confused me is how the instruction book says it works best on damp, towel-dried hair, but I did not find this claim to be true. If my hair wasn't completely dry, it just took longer to straighten, having to go over each section many more times. I even tried it on my niece who had very fine, thin hair, and it didn't work well on her hair when wet either. It may work better when used with the FHI hot sauce, but I just used it with biosilk and John Frieda Frizz serum. Another thing I noticed it that it doesn't seem to stay at 450 degrees for long while straightening. The temperature seems to drop a little while your hair is going through the plates, but then if set down for as minute or so, the red light will start bliking again to show it reached the desired temp. My hair never seems to stay straight for long, but that may just be my hair and the high humidity levels in Florida. Overall, I would recommend this product. Before purchasing, I read many reviews and ordered a Hana elite 1.5" from another online store, because I was curious to try a new brand, but after being disappointed and wasting $14 in return shipping, I got this FHI and I am happy with the results.

This review is from: Fhi Heat 00043 Professional Ceramic Tourmaline Styling Iron with Nano-fuzeion Technology, 4/10 Inch (Misc.)

I have never been more satisfied with a ceramic iron. I began transitioning from a relaxer to natural hair over a year ago and this is the ceramic iron that my hair stylist's uses. This ceramic iron provides my hair with softness, body and a silky shine. I highly recommend it to anyone, but especially to women who currently have relaxers, but would like to go natural.

This review is from: FHI Heat Platform Series Styling Iron (Misc.)

I have very wavy, thick hair. I had bought a flat iron at a drug store but it never worked well for my hair. It took a long time to straighten and the results only lasted a few hours. Then I bought the FHI 1" Platform flat iron and couldn't believe what a difference from my other cheap flat iron. My hair is now silky, soft and stays straight until I wash it again, and it stays nice even in humid weather. I also use Chi Silk Infusion which I put on my hair before I flat iron. You can use any kind of product, but I do recommend a product made for use with a flat iron. I am very pleased with this flat iron and recommend it highly.
