Farouk CHI 1 Inch Ceramic Flat Hairstyling Iron

I bought this item from Amazon and withing 5 months it wouldn't heat up anymore. There is no warranty. It is worth the extra money to go through an authorized dealer.

My niece brought a Chi Flat Iron from a local department store in Texas. She used it on my hair and I fell in love with it. At the time, my hair felt soft and remained straight for a week/until I washed it. So I decided to buy three for myself, my sister and my daughter. My sister and my daughter stated the iron works perfect for them. They both have course hair. But when I bump my hair slightly, it burns it. I've treated my hair with protein treatments shortly after washing it and thermal treatments shortly before flat ironing it. The flat iron still burns my hair. It would help if it had a heat control mechanism on it. I've since pulled out my old faithful.

This Flat Iron is an essential tool for any girl.... I am in LOVE it is quick and effective and does not damage your hair.. just one swipe and you have silky salon finished hair in minutes! There is really nothing bad I can say about this product, it gets the job done well every time! I have thick curly hair and usually spend over an hour at the salon getting it blown straight. But now I can just let it air dry and then straighten with the CHI as easy as 123 it is my priceless.. has samed me $$ on Salon appts and also a life saver for those last minute outing or unannounced guests that drop in on you Now I can look fabulous every time! Thanks Amazon & Farouk!

My wife loves this unit, but apparently the only thing she doesn't like is the fact that it doesn't have a temperature control (only on or off). If it had this, I would have given it 5 stars.

My old flat iron I bought at a drug store cost only $20, but it doesn't do anything! This one is great! It heats up very fast and is extremely easy to use. It sells for more than $120 in local stores. I paid $80 on Amazon, no tax either. A good deal!
