I have had mine for almost 3 weeks and absolutly LOVE it. My hair is naturally curly and super frizzy especially on humid days-I live in the south so we have a lot of humid days. This iron with the use of Chi silk serum keeps my hair frizz free even on humid days. My hair is really thick too but it only takes me 15 minutes to straighten it. It takes me longer now to blow dry it than it does to straighten my hair. I will never own another flat iron. This one is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After having used a $20 straightener just to see if I'd actually use one if I had it, I finally stopped wanting to fry my hair, and decided to upgrade. I picked this one out because of the long titanium plates, and because I'd heard an alarming amount of bad things about the Chi flat irons.

I have been so happy with this straightener. My hair is super straight, smooth, and shiny. I've gotten so many compliments on my hair since using it. It's glides right through my thick, stubborn, wavy hair. One stroke usually gets it perfect, some extremely stubborn parts take two. It's so easy and fast to use. I've got so much hair (a hairdresser once called me "Mufasa", if that's any indication), and I'm done in about 15 minutes.

I love this straightener! I have had several others, including some professional models, that snagged my hair and caused it to break. This one didn't pull once! The plates are super smooth, and heat up quickly. I was worried that the plates are metal, because I've heard so much about ceramic, but I did a little reading and it seems that titanium is also good. After using it, this straightener did as good or better than ceramic units I've used--my hair was incredibly smooth and shiny. I used it for the first time before going out with a friend, and the first thing she said was "wow your hair looks great!"

I have thick wavy hair that is fairly difficult to straighten. I almost always use the highest setting on other flat irons, but on this one I was happy with one of the medium settings--it does get very, very hot on the higher settings! It was very easy to use though, especially with the narrow plates, and the shape of the casing makes it easy to flip hair around. I haven't tried curling with it yet, but I plan to!

Some folks have commented on a gap between the plates. There is a tiny gap of maybe 1mm, but unless you have very, VERY fine hair, it should be filled up (and then some) by the hair you are straightening.

Honest reviews on BaBylissPRO Nano Titanium 1" Ultra Thin Flat Iron

My stylist recommended the Babyliss Pro some time ago to me. After reading the reviews on it from Amazon I decided to try it. I also own the FHI Platform and a CHI iron. I must say the Babyliss is the best hands down. I am an African American woman who is in the process of going natural and this iron straightens my hair just as good as, if not better than, a relaxer. I like the fact that the iron is thinner which makes it easier to get closer to my roots. As others have mentioned, the iron gets really hot. I have had to learn to use it with one hand instead of two to avoid burning my hand. The only thing I do not like about this iron is that you have press the on button every time you use it (vs. switching it and leaving it switched to on and plugging in iron). This is not a deal breaker for me; it just took some getting used to.

I bought this flat iron, after almost choosing the Chi.

I've heard many stories about Chi's breaking after a year, which of course means no warranty. I didn't want to waste money on something that wouldn't last, so I searched more until I found this flat iron. Many people that had/have Chi's said that this flat iron is better.

After using it for the first time, wow! My hair was very smooth, sleek, healthy-looking, and straight! (obviously)

I'm so glad I purchased this flat iron, I was sick of my old one damaging my hair and not straightening it, or keeping it pin-straight all day. This one doesn't damage my hair (always use heat defense before using), and it makes it look even healthier. It smooths all the frizz, and creates smooth, sleek, healthy looking straight hair.

I've only had to use this flat iron on setting 30 (30/50 x 450 degrees), so I use it at 270 degrees and it's able to fully straighten my hair and keep it straight all day, until the next wash. Never use higher heat than your hair needs! You will only be simply damaging and maybe even burning your hair this way, leading to many split ends.
