exactly what I needed

I have a wonderful ceramic Solia that I use regularly. However, I've recently been lugging it to work and back -- and it takes up a lot of room. So, I went looking for a smaller flat iron. I was a bit nervous about buying one that was so inexpensive -- because I've usually found that you get what you pay for. But I was pleasantly surprised! This little one is great! Exactly what I was looking for! It is tiny but it gets really hot. Easy to carry around. Easy to stow in my little black backpack. I do have short hair and would recommend this little one only for people in a similar situation. It would take a lo.o.o.o.n.g time to straighten anything longer than an inch or two.
A godsend for short hair

Say whatever you want, but I'm a guy whose curly hair drives me crazy enough to flat iron it. But I have a normal guy's haircut, which since it's short is hard to get a normal sized flat iron through. This little one works perfect on it though, especially the top where it's like 3 inches long. I can also straighten out the sides which are only about 1/2 an inch long. I was a little shocked by 'how' small it is, even though I knew the dimensions before I bought it. A girl could easily take this around in her purse. If the cord were shorter, this flat iron could easily fit in my pocket. I'm very happy with it. I'm done with my hair in under 3 minutes and I look just as good as any guy with a cool haircut. It's also gotten the approval of my girlfriend, who was sure I'd fail at buying a good iron since I'm a guy. I've caught her using this on her bangs though, so I'd say I did a pretty good job! No complaints about it. I'm glad you guys carried it otherwise I would have never found it.
I'm glad I bought this (:

This flat iron is so cute, and surprisingly functional. I use it to straighten my bangs and roots that my sedu 1.5" has problems getting to. I'm happy with how straight and soft my bangs are when I use it, it makes me want a full-sized TS-2. The only complaints I have with it is that it comes with (otherwise convenient) rubber grips that slip over the plates sometimes and pull out my hair! :( Also, the temp is 400, a little high for my hair type. But overall I love it, I'd recommend it.
Good for travelling

I ordered this straightner as i was going on holiday and didn't want to take my big straightner with me. i ordered this before i really read the reviews. well when i read that it was best for short hair (i have hair way past my shoulders) i thought opps! i'll be returning that. so when it came i nearly didn't even try it, but i gave it ago and i am very happy i did. it works just as well on long hair as short hair. it actually makes my hair feel healthier and softer than my revlon one (needs to replace that one.) i starighten my hair in 2 inch sections at a time with any straightner and since the plate is 3inch long on the mini it really didnt take it much longer to do it. it heats up well and makes my hair straight. the only thing is that it cant make my hair as 'flat' because you cant get as much pressure on the hair, but it still makes my hair look good. i did have to use a mirror as you can barely feel it touching your hair. i also use this one when i have my hair up and need to straighten my bangs.

it is smaller than you would think it is about 8 inches long and about 1.5 inches wide. the pink one is a hott pink. it works really goood on my bangs and my short hair in the back but it takes a little longer on my long hair than than a regualr hair straightner. luckily my big one still works or i would have to give it back. i suggest you get this for shorter hair.
