Chi is top of the line. I have one--works great.

Breny · 01-01-2008, 07:37 PM

Well after comparing everything, the sedu has really got me interested. Anyone else have one????

I just got a Power GQ from Sally's Beauty Supply. It works just as well as a Chi and was only $50. It gets up to 430 degrees. The girl working at the store said Chis are more expensive because you're paying for the name...but there are cheaper ones that do work just as well.

Which is exactly right. It proves it even more when you see fire hazards coming up with them and people still buying them.. durdadur.

Anyway, Breny, here's my hair when it was longer and I still used my Sedu on it. Then, one of my hair that's gone and I still use it.

I wish I had a before and after but I don't

My daughter and I have been using the same Chi since 2001..that's a long time for a hair appliance especially with double the use. A Chi seals the cuticle. With the horses behind hair that we have, the humidity here in Texas wreaks havoc and undoes anything the other appliances do. With the Chi the sealed hair stays smooth even in the humidity. Bottom line, your hair keeps the "just done: look untill you wash it again. I by no means had the money to buy one myself, it was a gift. My opinion is your paying for more than just a name.

We love the Paul Mitchell Flat Iron. Our hair dresser got it for me at her cost (so she said) lol it was $120.00 it is awesome. Doesnt dry the hair out as bad as some of them do. You have to be careful. She said the ones at Sallys say its ceramic, but they are truely the real ceramic and its bad for your hair.

We've had it over a year. my daughter uses it daily!!!

mechchic3 · 01-02-2008, 02:38 PM

I have the sedu and it works great.Just pass it through once and your good.

MyFairLacy · 01-02-2008, 07:53 PM

Breny · 01-04-2008, 10:45 AM

To get a CHI or any other PROFESSIONAL flat iron, you should get it from your hair salon. Sally's does not carry professional grade products. Support your small local businesses!!!!

Sally's doesn't carry the name brand flat irons, you'll most likely get it the cheapest on Folica.com or if you can't order online then get one from a salon in your town.

Breny · 01-04-2008, 06:09 PM

I thought someone had posted they got their CHI at Sallys. Well I'm going to order mine online and skip the middle man (my hair stylist). I'd rather it come straight to me and not worry about them.

Thanks everyone!!! I'm leaning towards the sedu at this point

No, Sally's had this promotion going on for Christmas of a flat iron that was the generic brand of the CHI. I think someone on here mentioned they got one of those. Folica also usually has a free gift when you order so much and the flat irons usually fall under that category.
