All this talk about Chi. I want it badly now. *adds to checklist*

I've bought 3 or 4 irons from drugstores and regular stores...And just kept getting disppointed because the irons made my hair more dry than straight. So they only sell the Chi iron online?

I usually don't buy anything online, but maybe it's worth it.

So which Chi iron is the best?

I know I can get the Chi at my local beauty supply store.. but only licensed cosmetologists can go in there. Um if it's really a lot online I could pick one up from there and ship it to you at cost. I think the place I go to had it for 150.

K, I'll look into that original 1-inch Chi iron and start saving though.

My hair is thin and actually wavy, so I don't think I have anything to lose. I don't think I have a problem straightening it, so it must be those cheapers irons I use to have.

this right? http://www.folica.com/CHI_Ceramic_Fla_d1.html

They are really expensive for a flat iron... but everyone I know swears by it - so I guess it's worth the investment. Just don't forget a protectant!!!!

I was looking at that website, has anyone tried the makeup or some of the other items for sale, some look nice. I have never heard of the website, but I will be checking into the ceremic iron.

 
after buying flat iron at my local drugstore and damaging my hair more than anything, I decided to put money where I know I would get something good so I bought the CHI and I love my CHI!!!!!!!!!

 
oooooooooh..I need help in this area. I recently bought the T3 tourmaline from Sephora which worked great but its not dual voltage and it popped when i used it with a voltage converter in London

I love my CHI. I straighten and curl with my flat iron. Worth every penny. God Bless the creator of this invention.

I use a ceramic iron by Jilbere, I got it from Sally Beauty Supply for like $40 and it is fantastic... I have had it for like 4 years with no problems, it has 30 heat settings, ad doesn't fry my hair!

This thing is my HG... Now that I know I don't have to buy a $200 iron to do a great job, I am sticking with my Jilbere...

And Liz I am two left feet when it comes to blowouts too... I completely suck! I can usually mimic other people and get the job done with stuff, but blowdrying straight either takes like 2 full hours or it just turns into a ball of frizz on my head! So you are definitely not alone!!

To get an amazing Ceramic Flat Iron get ready to pay $300-$400. My hairdresser sells them, and they make your hair super straight and your hair doesn't even frizz in the the humidity! It's a special ionic one and doesn't damage the hair!!

What is the iron your hairdresser sells?
