This is one of the very best hair Irons I've ever used, well worth the money. I use to use a Conair Conair 2" Wet/Dry Tourmaline Iron for about 3 years to turn my frizzy hair to somewhat straight and I was pleased with the results, but it was a hassle doing my hair at times. Normally I would spray my hair with heat protected product before using a flat iron, I would be happy with the results until the day got hot and humid which turn my hair back to frizz. Very frustrating.
When my Conair iron broke after I accidently dropped it. I was searching for a new iron, I didn't want to be cheap and buy a budget one at the local store, even though some of them may give you good results. I was thinking in getting the new InStyler but decided after seeing it at a local beauty supply store, I realized that it was not the best fit for me, especially how I normally style my hair (very into the 40's and 50's) the InStyler I feel was very limited to what type of styles you wanted.
After reading multiple reviews online I check out the high end irons at a local beauty supply store and I stopped and checked the Sedu 1" iron. I read the description and cringe at the price... $150+ iron had me thinking very hard whether or not to spend that much money on a hair iron. I eventually decided to buy it along with the Sedu Argan Oil Anti-Frizz Polishing Treatment and all I can say is well worth the money.
The Pros.
1. Styling time cut in half- My hair styling time has been cut in half, I have really long thick hair (mid back) and I also have a lot of hair where I would normally pay high price at the Salon because it takes stylist longer than usual to do my hair because there's so much of it.
2. Using it as a curling Iron-I can add soft curls, wave's, flips or full on curls with this iron. I have very stubborn hair and at times it would not hold a curl because my hair would not hold it. I'm surprised how well my hair holds a curl after using this Iron.
3. I have less split ends and does not have the dry feeling- I've noticed after using this iron for two months that I have less split ends and that my hair does not feel dry. With my Conair, I would see how much it was damaging my hair even with the heat protected product; my hair would contain so many split ends and become very dry. Usually I would not straight my hair for a week so I can give my hair a break before using the iron again. With the Sedu iron I feel that I don't have to do that.
4. Healthier hair and Shine- My hair looks and feels healthier and it's shiny. I hope the Sedu iron continues giving my hair the shine and the healthier look for as long as I have it.
5. Goodbye to Frizz- Sedu iron is amazing and along with the Argan oil it makes may hair look and feel amazing. I never used the Argan oil, but using the Argan oil before straitening it with the Sedu Iron I noticed that my hair does not get frizzy in humid or hot weather. I spent the whole day at Disneyland in 80 degree weather and my hair was shinny and still had smooth look.
6. Fast Heat up time- Instead of waiting 5 minutes or so for an iron to heat up fast I notice that with the Sedu Iron with the Temperature set to the highest takes a min (may vary) for it heat up.
I do not have any complaints for the Sedu iron. It's by far the best iron I ever used. I spend less money on hair products because all I use is the Sedu iron and the Sedu Argan Oil. I bought the 1 ounce bottle of the Argan Oil and I haven't gotten through half of it after 2 months use, which is shocking because I have long hair ( all you need is a little of it). I don't have to iron my hair often; the Sedu product really keeps its word. The money is well worth it, if I had an accident and it I manage to break this iron, I wouldn't think twice and buy this iron again.
