I don't know if they're available where you are, but I love GHD's - they're VERY popular here. They straighten and can also be used to create curls and flicks too. I have naturally very curly hair and I've tried LOADS of different straighteners - GHD's are by far the best, I literally don't know what I would do without mine. (Sorry I sound a bit like an ad, don't I? I don't sell them or work for GHD or any affiliated company - honest
