HAI Iron, June 13, 2007
By Jace1SA from San Antonio, TX

"I love this iron. I used to have a CHI, but there was no heat control setting. As my hair starting going grey, the high heat was causing damage. I love this HAI iron - I can reduce the heat for my fragile hair and still get the same soft and shiny results. I've tried lower end commercial ceramic irons and they work some, but they don't provide the same shine or lasting results. San Antonio is a hot and humid climate, and my hair will stay smooth all day and night.
The HAI is made with the same industrial grade casing and electrical cord as the CHI. Very high quality. I expect this iron to last a long time. Definately worth the investment and I highly recommend it.

The BEST Flat Iron, August 29, 2006
By KellyJ from New York, NY
Value: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Materials Quality: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

"I purchased this after my former roommate, who has Asian-Spanish hair, bought one of her own, and I found myself borrowing it on an all-too regular basis. Being a Black woman, I've tring a lot of flat/curling irons on my hair, and nothing comes close to this one, as my sister can also attest to. While I could sing its praises for a variety of aspects, the best parts for me is that I never get that burnt-hair smell when using this, no matter how high I have the heat on, and the iron pleats glide over my hair smoothly, never snaring at the ends, which has happened to me with other irons. I let my hair dry naturally after washing, and then use the HAI iron to straighten it out, and the finshed product looks like I've been to see someone who styles hair for a living. You also don't need to use this everyday, due to the fact that it smoothes so well, so it is also better for your hair. Highly recommeneded for all hair types!"

"Got this straightener a few weeks ago b/c my roommate was sick of me using her Biosilk straightener- and now she's jealous b/c my HAI is better! This is a good high quality, straightner - I am deffinitley happy with how it straightens my hair- I haven't tried to do any curles or waves with it yet though. Buy this one with confidence!"

Works great, October 29, 2009

Materials Quality: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

"I ordered both the CHI and HAI flat iron - one for me and the other for my daughter. Both irons are similar in price, quality made materials, design, handle easily and heat up quickly. But the HAI straightens and curls better than the CHI on my long, frizzy hair and my daughter's long, very fine hair. The CHI does work, but I need to go over the strands a couple of times for it to straighten. For the value, I am keeping them both, but using the HAI for myself."

Excellent Flat Iron, September 17, 2009
By TSCNY from NY
Value: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Materials Quality: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

"After reading all the positive reviews, I decided to give this flat iron a try. While other expensive flat irons, that I own, have pulled at the ends of my hair, causing damage, this one does not. It also keeps your hair straight & frizz free in humidity. It is very easy to use, heats up fast & leaves my hair smooth as silk. And I appreciate the extra safety measure, of the reset button. I also took out the extra 2 year warranty, but probably will not need it, as it seems to be a quality built product."

Fabulous, August 20, 2009
By ElleTara from Boston, MA

"A friend of mine recommended this straightener instead of the Chi. This has temperature control. I had to wait a little longer than I expected to get my shipment, but once I got it, I was very happy. Don't waste your money on the $30, 40, 50 flat-irons in stores. Pay the extra few bucks for this one!!!!"

"I have always had CHI flat irons in the past. I love them; however they don't seem to last long--one to two years tops has been my experience. The HAI iron flattens my hair just as well. Time will tell if it lasts longer then the CHI, which was my reason for switching brands."

"The iron heats up really fast. Don't waste your money on a really expensive Iron when this one works so well and for a fraction of the price. The iron has an adjustable temperature control that works really fast. The plates leave my hair really smooth and shiny. I'm surprised by just how good it works."

"This is a great flatiron. It heats up quickly but not within 5 seconds like it claims. The 'convertible' aspect of the iron is deceiving. I'm not quite sure what it means by that. It works very well and cools quickly. I strongly recommend it."

Holds up to the Florida Humidity, June 26, 2009
By kelkerbrad from Winter Haven, FL

Materials Quality: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

"I really like this flat iron. I live in Florida and the humidity here is a kin to stepping out of your refrigerator indoors into a sauna outdoors for 10 months out of the year. This flat iron locks in the results. My hair looks more like I'm back in my 20's-not my 40's. Well, now, if it could only keep the gray covered--I'd buy them by the case!Great price for the product. I've tried others and they pale in comparison."

The best, June 17, 2009
By Roxxxie from Long Beach, CA

"I have been using this flat iron for the last 8 years. I have very curly thick hair and this is the only flat iron I have found that does not damage my hair, heats up very quickly and does not take several attempts to straighten. I am on my third iron. The first one lasted about 4 years. The second was my fault , I dropped it on the tile floor and one of the ceramic plates came off, it still worked but did not heat up as well. I will keep purchasing this iron everytime."

"I had this straightener for over 2 years and just recently broke it. I've dropped it so many times, I knew it was just a matter of time. I am buying a brand new one from here (I paid the full $140 for my first one!!) I am so happy I found it at such a low price!!! I've gone through SO many straighteners ranging from $20-$200 and this is my all-time favorite. I would recommend this to everyone who uses a straightener. It's simply AMAZING :)"

"this iron simply does not perform as well as expected for the price...has no "Convertible" aspect so not sure why that is part of the name...did not straighten as well as a drugstore brand iron for a fraction of the cost..it does not lock so you must wait till cools down to store and as i travel to and from China every 3 months this was a much needed option..seem poorly constructed..just not an $84 iron in my opinion"
