5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!
I get monthly chemical relaxers, so I just need a flat iron to take the texture out of my hair when I blow dry. I don't know about using a flat iron as a daily straighener because my hair is already chemically straightened.

This review is from: FHI Heat Platform Special Edition Professional Ceramic Tourmaline Styling Iron 1" with Nano Technology (Health and Beauty)
I get monthly chemical relaxers, so I just need a flat iron to take the texture out of my hair when I blow dry. I don't know about using a flat iron as a daily straighener because my hair is already chemically straightened.

My texture is medium-coarse and this iron leaves my hair shiny and soft. I use my FHI once a week whenever I wash it, and I feel the difference for days. The CHI may have just been too hot for my hair because the one I had didn't have the temperature setting. After I used this FHI a few times, I gave my old CHI to my friend. My hair would be shinny with the CHI, but it would also feel hard and fried. Plus after about 2 days, it seems like it needed to use some serious CHI heat again which may have contributed to my hair breakage so I stopped using it.

My hair dresser uses FHI and my hair always feel great. I would get many compliments so after getting my hair back into health, I turned again to the high heat ceramics. When I use the FHI, I can go a nearly a week with using minimial or no additional heat. I especially noticed the difference in the back of my hair (known to some as the "kitchen").

I still use my good cheapo ceramic conair iron daily at a low setting as needed. I could also use the FHI daily at the lower settings, but the cheaper irons do just as well after my hair is initially strengthened with the FHI. So why burn out this expensive iron everyday?

I've used many flat irons and hair products. To me, the health of your hair and your regime makes a huge in the determining whether a hair tool or hair product works. I definitely recommend any flat iron that is ceramic. Even the cheap ones help my hair hold moisture - less frying. It makes a huge difference for me! Combine it with a ionic dryer, a great conditioner and setting lotion, and I am good!

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't Ask For Much More...., December 11, 2007
This review is from: FHI Heat Platform Special Edition Professional Ceramic Tourmaline Styling Iron 1" with Nano Technology (Health and Beauty)
I have very coarse curly hair, and this iron does the trick. It gets super hot, heats up in about 15 seconds and straightens quickly and very effectively. I can get it to that nice silky smooth straight, not the disappointing straight-ish frizz girls like me are often stuck with. I thought about the 1 3/4", but the 1" lets me get my bangs and it's still no problem for handling long hair quickly. I used Amazon Prime and got it the next day.Couldn't be happier!

I purchased this for my wife who has owned many flat irons and she says this one is the best she has ever had. She also has told me that this exact model is what her hair stylist uses and sells them for about $150.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection!, November 6, 2009

This review is from: FHI Heat Platform Special Edition Professional Ceramic Tourmaline Styling Iron 1" with Nano Technology (Health and Beauty)
I am African American with very thick, long, chemically colored, wavy/curly, natural hair. I normally wear my hair curly or in two strand twists. This flat iron gets my hair just as straight as it would if I went to the salon. I only go to the salon to get a trim and color. I use Biosilk in my hair before I press it, and it's perfection. With cheaper flat irons my hair would wave/curl up after a day or so. Not so with this flat iron. I had a Chi previously, that broke. And this works the same if not better than the Chi.

I've tried a number of flat irons and this one is, by far, the best! It gets my very curly hair stick-straight and leaves it so much silkier than the other irons I've used. This product is worth every penny!

This review is from: FHI Heat Platform Special Edition Professional Ceramic Tourmaline Styling Iron 1" with Nano Technology (Health and Beauty)
I bought this flat iron after having an FHI used on my hair at the salon. The stylist told me FHI's were the best. My hair has never looked better. This iron heats up very quickly and I only need to pull it through my hair one time. I actually cut out using the blowdryer. I am very happy with this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars WWWWWOOOOOOWWWWW, December 31, 2007
This review is from: FHI Heat Platform Special Edition Professional Ceramic Tourmaline Styling Iron 1" with Nano Technology (Health and Beauty)
this straightener is a-m-a-z-i-n-g! i use to buy really cheap ones like conair and revlon and then my hair stylist told me about the fhi platform and i began to look for them and saw they were 200$$$!!!!!!!!! but then here only $90, once got it i saw the result and they left me speechless!

i have naturally pretty straight hair but i have alot so its puffy and sometimes firzzy and a straightener helps me keep it tamed. and wit the platform my hair felt so soft and silky and pin straight. all i can say s if u have the 90$ to spend then definity spend it on this cuz i dont regret it at all.

This review is from: FHI Heat Platform Special Edition Professional Ceramic Tourmaline Styling Iron 1" with Nano Technology (Health and Beauty)
I decided to try this FHI platform flat iron based on the many good reviews these flat irons have received. However, I returned this FHI because it altered the texture of my hair regardless of which temperature I used. Applying heat protector products for hair did not change the strange results I was getting. My hair looked terrible with the use of this flat iron. Moreover, it was taking too long to style my hair with this product. I am caucasian with medium thick, tends to frizz, shoulder length hair and my old Paul Mitchell flat iron always produced great results in just a few minutes-smooth,straight and shiny hair. So, I returned the FHI and ordered the Paul Mitchell Ion styler flat iron which I am alot happier with. I'll be sticking with the Paul Mitchell stylers in the future.
