Chi Ceramic Flat Iron Reviews

I’m what most would call, a hair snob. I always try to have my hair perfect before leaving the house. Straighteners are must-haves for those of us with wavy or semi-wavy hair. I’ve used many of them in hopes of finding the chi flat iron reviews ….

This hair straightener was a last resort for me, I’ve gone through many of them. Either they die out, or yank your hair, don’t get hot enough, so your hair is just kind of half-straight, or make awful smells. I got this on an Amazon Gold Box Deal and figured if it didn’t work, I’d be able to return it.

This is the best chi flat iron! It heats up super fast, gives you stick straight shiny hair, no smell of the appliance to make your hair smell funky! Best of all, it doesn’t pullout all your hair or break it! I highly recommend this straightener!

I bought the Chi Turbo 2″ from Ulta nearly 2 years ago and it finally just stopped working a few weeks ago. For some reason, the Ulta near me isn’t selling them anymore, so I’ve turned to amazon because I pretty much can’t live without it. My hair is extremely long and after using a regular 1″ Chi for a while, I discovered that the 2″ cut my straightening time down by half. It was a fantastic straightener! The only thing I’m hesitant about is the fact that I don’t want to spend $200 on something that I can’t even get a 1yr warranty for just because it’s bought off the internet. If you find one in a salon that’s a little more expensive, the extra money is probably worth it.

I bought this for my friend a couple of years ago and she LOVES it! She used to buy her straighteners from target or walmart and they would either break after a few months or singe her hair. She said this flat iron doesn’t burn her hair at all and keeps it straight almost all day! Since I got her the 2 inch one, it cuts down the time for her to do her hair in half. I also got a great deal off of a seller on Amazon who said we could return it if it had any problems, and so far, she hasn’t had any yet. I think I paid around $70 for this one, which is like 1/3 of the retail value. I definitely am too cheap to splurge on this regular price. Thinking of getting my sister one now too now that I know it’s reliable.

Farouk CHI Turbo Regular Flat Iron

After owning this flat iron for a year and a half, I’m still happy with it.

My sister bought it for me as a gift after her hair stylist was showing us the wonders of her Chi flat iron. It gets hot fast, never burns me, my hair stays straight all day (I use a little Redken Smooth Down Heat Glide) and my hair feels soft.

The felt is still perfect on mine and no, I haven’t grabbed the wrong end and waited for it to burn me yet. If the warranty is the only thing holding you back, then there’s not much anyone can say to change that (just know that in my personal experience I haven’t had to use my warranty, it’s a solid product as far as I have experienced).

There are many other flat irons out there and some may do the job just as well, but you can’t go wrong with this one. Take care of your Chi (get a case and baby it) and it will serve you well.

I have had my 2″ Turbo for over 3 years now and it’s worked perfectly. I’ve traveled all over with it and have just thrown it in my bag numerous times and it’s lasted. The felt is worn but that’s all that is wrong with it.

That being said, I have been very lucky with my Chi. It seems to be a hit or a miss with them. Some work great from day 1 and last years, others fail miserably very shortly after purchase. My mother and sister both have had straighteners that have failed very shortly after the year warranty.

I think that Amazon has the best prices (i’m looking to get a new one for my little sister for Christmas) and is worth the risk … just keep in mind there is a risk. Judging by the reviews, the defective products seem to make up a small minority. I will be contacting Amazon before my purchase though, to inquire about their return policy for this item. The cost might make it worth buying from here rather than in-store where they fulfill the year warranty but charge twice as much.
