My Tiny Treasures Donating Member | Whats the best Flat iron for LONG hair???? I currently use the MAXI GLIDE (anyone else have it???) But I notice I loose alot of hair when I straighten my hair. I'm wondering if the teeth are pulling my hair out??? My neice got a new one for xmas, I don't know the brand or how good it is, but it was bought at Sally's Beauty Supply and came with a holder which I thought was cool, cuz I never know where to put mine when its hot. I'd love a holder. It had a suction cup to stick it to your wall. So whats the BEST straightner out there for long hair??? Here is the link to the one I'm currently using: http://www.maxiusbeauty.com/ Last edited by Breny; 12-30-2007 at 04:19 PM. |

| I bought my daughter a CHI. It was expensive, but it has lasted almost 2 years and going strong. She usually blows one up in about 4 months! She loves it and swears it is Sooooo much better than the $50.00 ones I was buying her.

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | Yep I was shocked as hell too but she said it was voted like top of the line and all that. They have it to spend like that. She did get my daughter one from Sally's that was like $25 and it looks good. I think as lon gas it's a ceramic one then your good to go.

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | I don't know what the best one is, but I have long hair (I just got it cut, but it was about half way down my back), and my flat iron is perfect. I have really, REALLY thick hair, and it still works very well. Its a CONAIR. It also has a curling iron that you can lock, so its there when you need it but it won't get in the way. It also has a lot of different heat settings, so you don't have to worry about burning your hair off lol. and it also has a good long handle. I always burn myself when I'm using my friend's irons or whatever, but I've never burned myself on this one. Here are some pics I took for you. The first one is just the straightner, then the second one is the curling iron.

WOW! You have the Maxi Glide?!?! I've always watched those infomercials and they look sooooooooo cool. Is the only reason you don't like it because it pulls your hair out? How long is your hair? Those things are expensive. Thats why I haven't bought one yet. | |

| I have a Wigo Oxy that I got at Ulta, and I use it every day and I've had it for about 2-3 years now! before I use to buy the cheap ones and I had to replace it once a year. This one has the big iron on it, so its made for longer hair. |

| Try looking on consumer reports. They usually tell what the best products are for a reasonable price are. I bought my flat iron at a salon and its awesome. It heats up in three seconds and if you accidentally leave it on it turns its self off.

| I just bought one called Forever by Herstyler http://www.herstyler.com/ I paid about $200.00 for it too. But, wow what a difference from any other flat iron I have ever owned before. Totally worth every penny. |

| There was a vendor in one of the malls in Dallas when we went to visit my sil and they had the best flat iron but I can't remember the name of it it was from france and it worked great I was having a frizzy hair day and they flattened my hair it didn't smell like it was burning and made my hair so straight and shiney then he curled a small section of my hair and said it would stay curled for a couple of days I washed my hair that night but it did stay curled for 6 hours with no hairspray. I will ask my sil if she remebers the name.
