i need a new flat iron for my hair... but most of the ones i find i end up really disapointed with. i have ALOT of hair... its not really long just thick and alot of it. so i usually like 2" plates that can do large sections at a time... but anything that would work would be fine with me. :-/
does anyone have any suggestions or recomendations of a could straightener?

My girls would love to have a Chi straightener but they're pretty expensive. They are suppose to be one of the best.

I've heard the Chi's are the best too. My hair is short and I have no need for one. Hopefully some others will post here shortly.

I like any ceramic one. Try eBay for a good price - Conair makes good products, very inexpensive too.

Chi's are very very good but very expensive as everyone has already said. I also have thick-ish hair with a bit of wave when I air-dry it. Do you use products to straighten? I've found it helps a LOT. I have a ceramic conair which I am happy with. To get it SUPER SUPER straight I use a flat-iron spray and then use the flat-iron before it dries.

I used a Chi for over a year and they are very good at getting and keeping hair straight. My hair was starting to feel dry though and I read some great reviews on GHD flat irons and broke down and bought one. It is the single best beauty purchase I have ever made. I can not say enough about my GHD. From the very first use my hair felt silkier and looked shinier than with the Chi. GHDs rock!:)

I let my hair airdry as much as possible! I have VERY thick hair with a little curl in it. So needless to say it can get very frizzy. There are a lot of over the counter products that you can put on your hair after you towel dry it. That has helped me some. Oh also hot oil treatment help make your hair more managable. I find that after that using a flat iron is much easier. Good Luck.

My daughter had a chi, but it didn't last long and it was expensive . I purchased an inexpensive one for about 40.00. The company is Jilbere de Paris Ceramic 30 heat settings its a cermaic flat iron-2 1/2 inches flat iron. I brought it in a beauty supply store, my daughter has long hair. She loves it. Hope this helps.

Just remember after you straighen your hair, get some "silk" or a good "soy" hair product so your hair don't dry.. i like the silk drops. just put a dime size in your hand and rub in your hair, makes it shine too...
