I purchased this product online and was so excited to try it when I received it in the mail. It heated up in about 60 seconds and since I have very straight asian hair, I wanted to test out the curling abilities right away. The curl technique was a little difficult for me to get from reading the directions so after I watched a few youtube tutorials, my curls were coming out perfectly! My hair never hold curls and this flat iron curled my hair and has held the curl pretty much all day even without hair spray. I love this product and highly recommend it!!!

I was shopping in the mall one day with some friends and we were pulled aside by someone working the stand . One of my friends has extremly curly hair and my hair was very poorly straightened. He used my hair to curl it and hers to straighten. I have tried curling my hair before but it's just so thick that it doesn't work and I would get frustrated, but this straightner curled my hair better then my own curling iron. It straightened my friends hair in one shot, which I was very impressed by because I've straightened her hair before and it takes FOREVER because it's so curly. It's a bit pricey, but you will deffinitly get your money's worth.
Absolutely Amazing

I've gone through numerous straighteners and got this about a year and a half ago on whim. It was in one of those random stalls at the mall. I was considering getting a new straightener sometime soon, and this woman pulled me aside and straightened a strand, then curled a strand. I was amazed with the results and bought the silver one. I'd already been straightening my hair for a few years. But when I went to school with my hair straightened with the amika the next day, people kept complimenting my hair, and how gorgeous and.. BEHAVED it was. I used to have really puffy, frizzy, curly hair in middle school. And after I started using the amika, I'm positive that even when I don't straighten my hair, it's more relaxed and manageable. It's also incredibly sturdy. I've dropped it onto hardwood floor countless times, and it's still working perfectly. I'd definitely recommend it!

My brother bought me one a year and a half ago, and it's the best tool I've used. My hair is fairly thin and fine, but it has been damaged all of my life, and it naturally kinks. I've always had cheap hair dryers, until recently, and I tried a middle-of-the-road straightener. The hair dryers were terrible, and the straightener was just okay. I rarely straightened my hair for fear of damage. The Amika made all the difference. My hair actually looks healthier after I straighten it. I now straighten my hair every other day, and I have yet to see damage from the heat. (There is only one heat setting, but it has not damaged my fine hair one bit.) I've now tried a high end hair dryer, which is better than the cheap ones, but my hair doesn't compare to being straightened with the Amika. I also recently got a Sedu Revolution travel iron, and it doesn't seem to compare, either. I didn't know Amika had a travel iron, but I may exchange the Sedu now that I know. This iron is WORTH its price. I highly recommend it.

I have spent hundreds of dollars on a variety of name brand straighteners with nothing but negative results. I have very curly, frizzy Italian hair that I have always struggled to style. I purchased this product 2 1/2 years ago I haven't had a bad hair day since. The shine and softness my hair gets after using this straightener makes total strangers comment on how beautiful my hair is, let alone my husband is constantly touching and running his finger through my hair. Yes it was a bit costly, but worth every penny. Thanks--- Kim
I LOVED IT

THIS IS THE BEST STRAIGHTNER I HAVE EVER USED. I USED TO HATE STRAIGHTNING MY HAIR BECAUSE IT TOOK FOREVER AND AFTER I WAS NOT HAPPY AT ALL WITH THE RESULTS. THIS STRAIGHTNER ONLY TAKES 10 SEC TO HEAT UP AND ONE TIME TO STRAIGHTEN MY HAIR PIN STRAIGHT AND IT SHINES MY HAIR AND MAKES IT SOFT. IT DOESNT FRY MY HAIR LIKE OTHERS DO EITHER. ALTHOUGH IT IS HIGH PRICED IT IS WORTH IT. I HIGHLY RECOMEND THIS PRODUCT! I PROMISE YOU WILL LOVE IT AS MUCH AS I DO!
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! its my baby!
