Hair straightener question....?

I want to buy a Philips (salon straight pro) flat iron, I wanna know if its worth to buy, has any1 used it?Hair straightener question....?
I used this as an answer for a person who wanted to

know about buying a chi (keep in mind that all straighteners

will fry your hair; that's basically the point to get it straight, just make sure you use a flat-iron protection product):







The cheapest CHI I'd say would be about $85-90, and you can

find them at ULTA all the time. They sometimes have them in

special designs or colors for holiday sales.



You can also buy a CHI at Bed Bath %26amp; Beyond, though sometimes

they cost around $180 there for the 1'; wide. The good news is,

if you want to buy a 2'; wide CHI, it's only ten bucks more than

the 1'; at BB%26amp;B.



But then again, if you ever want to get a CHI, make sure it's

always cheap. No more than $100, because they always break.

You don't have to drop it on the floor, they just break so

easily because they are not manufactured well anymore.

I would invest in a T3 Tourmaline flat-iron. They are sold

at both stores for about the same price, but sometimes

more expensive because you can straighten your hair when

it is wet with the T3. You cannot do that with the CHI. Everyone

I know who has had a CHI got theirs broken, because the CHI's

are made cheap, but sold expensive. They straighten well,

but it's not worth it, you will get ripped off. It will probably

last for a month. Try it out, and if it breaks, return it

and try the T3. It's way better!



Good luck, and don't forget to buy a flat-iron spray

to protect your hair from the heat, drying, and split ends. :)

You can find them everywhere.



--------------------------------------br>
I have never heard of or tried the Philips, but

just make sure it is right for your hair type (how

high does the Philips heat up?):



Straight/Little bit wavy/Thin/Soft/Delicate hair- Look for a flat-iron

that goes up to (maximum) 135 degrees F, anything

higher might really fry or burn your hair since

it doesn't need much heat in the first place.



Wavy/Loose Tamed Curls- Since your hair

is still delicate and thin, go for the 160 degrees F range.



Normal Curls/Very Wavy/Regular Straight-ish Hair- You

should be looking in the 185 F range; your hair

has normal thickness and is average.



Thick/Very Curly/Untamed/Frizzy/Poofy/Hard to Manage-

Go for the 250 degrees F up to 410 degrees F since your

hair is wild and naturally ';big'; if you get my meaning.



Good luck! :)

Hair straightener question....?
I would call a salon and ask them if they recommend any straighteners. They usually know everything about all hair problems.





If you really want help though I would go to this website: www.QueenBeeOfBeauty.webs.com. She knows it all!
yes i have it drys out your hair though so what i suggest is after you stration your hair.and wash it condition it well and wash it will cold water
if you're afraid it drys out your hair, put on some leave in treatment or conditioner before straightening it.
its probably pretty good but if you are willing to spend money, get a chee straigtener.
yeah, but chi's are the best.
