Ultra Chi Flat Iron Review

The following is a reader review of the Ultra Chi Flat Iron.

I have a confession. I am in a long term relationship with a hair straightener. It's not just any straightener. It's an Ultra CHI flat iron. In blue iris to be exact. It's easily my most prized beauty possession.

Ultra Chi flat Iron

The Ultra CHI flat iron is my favorite hair styling tool, because it works magic on my hair. I have curly, frizzy hair. It is really thick. It's so thick I have broken my fair share of hair ties. My CHI can take that thick, curly mess on my head and whip it into a sleek, smooth coif.

Not only does the Ultra CHI flat iron smooth out my hair, but the style lasts. I don't usually put anything in my hair after I wash it, so the CHI nixes the frizz by itself. I have owned cheaper flat irons in the past, and they didn't set the style for the day. Sure, I could buy products to put into my hair to make the style hold, but if I can get the same result with the flat iron alone for the whole day, why would I use anything else?

My CHI is fast too. It takes me about 15 minutes to straighten my hair. With my last flat iron, I had to go over the same length of hair repeatedly which added time in front of the mirror. It got to the point that I just pulled my hair back everyday in the interest of saving time. Now, I can do my hair almost as fast as I can do my makeup. That makes this busy girl very happy.

The CHI is less damaging to my hair than other brands of flat iron. I dye my hair like other girls change their nail polish, so my poor hair gets put through the chemical wringer. I don't need heat damage on top of that. Since I only have to run the iron over each small section of hair once, or twice at most, I minimize the damage.

Bottom line: The Ultra CHI flat iron makes my hair gorgeous when I want to wear it straight. I would recommend it to anyone in the market for a good flat iron.

The Herstyler Clipless Curling Iron is an exemplary product if you’re looking for effortless, long lasting curls. Its ceramic barrel heats up to 200?C in approximately 60 seconds, reducing wait time and allowing for quick production of your favorite do. Each purchase includes a light weight, 1 inch barrel wand boasting an extra-long fixed cord and a heat protectant glove for your fragile fingers. Colorful designs offer multiple choices to fit your personality and the thin, textured grip assures a better, more comfortable hold. Since the product was first put out on the market, new options have propped up that offer more versatile use. Multi-barrel extensions, which range from half an inch to an inch in width, provide the user with more control over each curl.

At first glance, the curler may seem intimidating as its clipless design is unlike conventional curling irons. But using this product is simple and easy to learn. The curling iron works best when positioned upside down as this is the most efficient way to wind your hair around the barrel. The heat protectant glove provided with the product eases any fears of burning for beginners, but often gets in the way and limits use of your hand. The curler itself is gentle on hair and forms sleek, no frizz curls, but if the air is rather dry, the glove can often produce static frizz that can become a hassle.

The original design features a tapered barrel that allows for the construction of multiple styles to suit your mood. Even without the multi-barrel extensions, you can create all types of curls ranging from small, tight spirals to big, loose waves all dependent on how tight you wind your hair around the barrel and how long you hold your hair to the heat. The curls fashioned with this product last all day without the need for sprays and gels that harden hair and create a less fluid, unnatural look. Perfect, long lasting curls are easy to make with this curler on almost any hair type, even pin-straight, hard-to-curl hair. However, very thick, coarse hair requires longer time on heat to produce even curls which can damage hair. The curler may not work as well on this type of hair.

In all, this product is great for a majority of people looking for a simple, efficient way to create long lasting, silky curls.
