This straightening comb does the job on my kinky roots as I try to stretch my relaxer out 3 mos. and I usually get relaxers every 6 weeks. However, I use my ceramic flat iron more because it is faster. The back of the comb is heated and makes it a little difficult for me to straighten my hair myself. I cannot straighten my edges with the comb because it is too bulky.

I thought that the person that reviewed the straightening comb was being tough but this comb is the worst. It's far too bulky to be functional, it pulled out my hair. I thought I'd be able to use it between relaxers but it was really a waste of money.

I have not had natural hair for more than 20 years. And I never learned to press hair. I purchased this comb for safety reasons -- to keep me from burning out my hair! I also thought the adjustable teeth would be good for a novice presser.

After a few uses, I can't manage to get my ends as straight as the roots. This may be my fault. I guess this is great if you have a relaxer. The teeth aren't fine enough, even when you adjust them.
The comb is very light, which may attribute to this as well. What works best for me is following up with a curling or flat iron to completely straighten.

I haven't experienced it pulling out my hair, at least no more than a normal appliance.

I wouldn't trade this for a traditional pressing comb, but I'm not enthusiastic about recommending it to anyone else.

I purchased this to straighten my daughter's hair. It barely gets hot enough to straighten soft fine hair, and it is difficult to get straight hair because adjustable design and bulkiness prevents the comb from getting close to the hair. Poorly designed product. Terrible for straightening ends of hair.

I am an Afro-Cuban woman who wears her hair naturally. My sisters and I used it and it gets our hair perfectly straight. I have very coarse hair, and with a few passes of the iron, my hair is silky straight. Plus, it last at least a week. I would recommend it.

I've used this straightening comb on my mother's soft natural hair and it worked very well. Much easier and safer to use than a conventional pressing or hot comb. I did find the setting control dial a little difficult to use that's my only complaint about the product.

The comb attachment has 3 adjustable set of teeth.I couldn't figure out what the adjustments were meant to achieve, except make the product bulky. Hard to get to hair roots. Also there's a tag on the cord that indicates that it contained lead! It advises to wash your hands after handling. Needless to say I got rid of it right away!!

I really was disappointed with this product. It did not do what it claims to do, it was very hard to figure out and never got hot enough to straighten my hair. A normal flat iron works a heck of alot better then this comb which I would of thought it would of been less time to do and quicker to straighten. Very Very disappointed

I have mixed feelings regarding this ceramic adjustable straigtening comb. Maybe I am just unfamiliar with it but I had a later model of the gold and hot series and felt more comfortable in using it. To me it seems not to run smoothing through my hair but almost pulling at it. I don't think I will purchase another one. Like I said maybe it is just me. I felt very uncomfortable in using it.

This is a great product for someone who doesn't have coarse hair such as myself. I felt that the product could have been much hotter than it was. Overall, its good to use when you need something to get you by until you hit the salon.
