"This is the best hair product I have ever bought. I had finally bought one for myself after noticing the difference it made after the salon. I have really straight hair and don't need it to straighten, but it smoothes out all my dry hair or anything damaged looking, and gives it that sleek Jen Aniston look. I've given 3 as gifts in the past 4 months!"

THE BEST THING EVER, March 23, 2007

"I love this flat iron. I have been struggling with my frizzy hair for years and this thing makes it so straight and smooth. I live in Virginia and it gets VERY humid in the summer. After using other flat irons, mt hair would frizz up after walking outside. With the CHI your hair will stay straight and frizz free until you wash it again. I have had this CHI for 4 years and I never have a bad hair day anymore. I wish I had discovered it earlier, it waould have saved me from many stressful mornings! You will not regret this buy, it is worth every penny and more. I tell everyone about it, it's GREAT!!"

"This is the best investment I have ever made. I have had my CHI for 5 years now and it is still going strong. I have dropped it, left it on all day and night, you name it and I did it. And it is still working like it did the day I got it! I have tried other straighteners and none compare or even work like this one."

"I just received and used the Chi flat iron today. I heard (from my hairdresser) that it was the best, and it definitely is. I have wavy/frizzy hair, and have to flat iron every day. Even after I would flat iron with my store bought iron, I would still have fluffy/frizzy hair. Not any more with this new Chi iron. Today, I was able to flat iron my hair that was washed yesterday, and put in a pony tail wet (if you can imagine the big pony tail wave) and it came out perfectly straight, and smooth. I seriously felt like I walked out of the hair salon. I love this flat iron!!"

"I have very naturally curly hair and I have straightened it everyday for years. This product has made it so easy! I can make it really flat or flip it, or even do loose wavy curls, it's great. All my sisters want one now, and this is a good price I couldn't find it for less anywhere, even at a stylist's discount."

"I have been straightening my hair for 10 + years now, using clothes irons, thick curling irons, and multiple flat irons. Those techniques were successful, however the results were very temporary and caused a lot of damage to my hair. I have only been using the Chi for a short time, but I can see and feel a dramatic difference! My hair stays straight through out the day, even when I take my pony tail holder out... there's no waves! That has never happened to me before! My hair feels softer, and I'm not constantly adding products to get my fly-aways down! I have struggeled with these problems for as long as I can remember, but I don't think that will be the case anymore! I highly recommend this product to anyone seeking straight, healthy looking hair!"

"I finally get my hands on a CHI flat iron. I have been wanting this iron for years. Both my roomates had one, and I would use theirs quite often. When I decided to get mine, I realized they were quite expensive at retail stores. So ended up buying a cheaper flat iron; I actually tried 3 other brands and was never satisfied. I checked Overstock and they pricing was just perfect. I am more than satisfied with my purchase. It is a great brand that would last you a long time, the pricing cannot get any better than Overstock's price, it reduces the amont of time you spend flat ironing your hair, and it actually stays flat!!! I absolutely LOVE this product; I know it will pay for it self!!!"

"I love this CHI flat iron. It works great, you only have to run the iron down each section of hair 1 time to get the desired results. I've been told by a stylist that this will help cause much less damage to my hair. I would definitely recommend this to others. I haven't seen this price on a CHI anywhere else, including TJ Maxx."

"This flat iron is the same that my hair stylist uses. When I told her I had ordered one she told me I would love it - and I do. It is very light weight and easy to use. It ges extremely hot so you don't need a long heat up time. It also has a very long cord - probably 6 ft."

"My hairdresser recommended this flat iron to me as one of the best out there. It is the only one she will use and recommends it to her clients. I went online to purchase it and found it on other sites for a lot more money. I bought it from overstock b/c it is cheaper and you cant beat the shipping! It works great and does not burn or damage my hair upon usage. I have very thick, wavy hair - so I would highly recommend this for anyone who wants to get that pin straight look!"
