Review: Classic Brand - I have never used a 1.5 inch flat iron and I love it. It straightens well without tugging and ripping my hair. I miss the curling power of my 1 inch straightener but I like the efficiency and smoothness of this one. CHI has been around forever for a reason. It is a solid, reliable option and gets the job done. I do wish the chord was a little longer. I have natural curly hair. Ringlets in some places and waves in others and I am able to straighten my whole heading about 10 minutes. Review: Small and lightweight - Great for shorter hair. Travel sized and stores easily. Great product ## Features - VERSATILE FLAT IRON: This hairstyling iron reaches up to 410°F in 30 seconds for optimal styling, catering to sleek straight hair or bouncy curls.
