The single best hair styling item ever! MUST HAVE!

My hairdresser introduced me to this flat iron and my life has changed dramatically! I have fine but very straight hair (I am asian) and nothing does what this iron does! I am able to use this as a curling iron, straightening iron and just about everything in between. The iron heats up fast and goes to 390 degrees which is what I need to put any life into my hair. The iron is easy to use and durable which is a major plus. I have never seen such a versatile iron before and this website had the best prices on the internet! I spent the most on this iron as I have ever spent on a hair appliance and let me tell you, it was worth every penny. I use this almost on a daily basis. It is easily transported and comes with a storage bag. I absolutely love love love this product.
Happily Surprised...

I was happily surprised by this iron/tong. It quickly turned my long hair from frizzy/curly to straight, silky and shiny...in record time. You have the option of flipping your hair up, or curling it under as you straighten. Unlike regular flat irons, it has the ability to give you a bit of lift at the roots giving the illusion of a blow dry rather than that completely flat against your head -- I just used a flat iron look. I'm wondering if I'm going to have much use for my T3 straightener (which I also love) anymore...
Great Performer - I used it for 1-2 years

I was skeptical at first of the crescent-curved tong/iron but found it so easy to use without burning fingers or skin. It imparted a great shine. I was totally hooked after less than one week. Recently, I accidentally jerked the cord (virtually tripping over it) and apparently broke the connecting wires inside the cord assembly. I would think you could replace the cord, as it is a modular unit. I truly appreciated the controlled temperature settings and the quick warm-up and cool-down; as well as - especially! the gloss-effect on normal naturally curly hair (shines the "nap")for the fringe/bangs. I agree with others that it lasts like no other! No other implement I have owned (or has been used on my hair) has been this easy or effective (Outstanding performer)(and only 55 watts!if you remember to turn it off when done! ;-).

this is a great tool, I am a hairdresser in orange park FL, and alot of my clients really enjoy the change of soft Beachy waves as opposed to the flat iron that is so common now a days. I find it easy to use and it does so many different things.
LOVE IT!!!!!

My hair dresser used this on my hair and I loved it. I knew I wanted my own. I have naturally curly hair but don't like having frizz. I rubbed a little heat protection flat iron stuff on the ends after washing my hair, let my hair air dry, then use the tong. It leaves my hair silky, soft, and with big beautiful curls. I definitely recommend this product. I was iffy about purchasing it versus an expensive curling iron but I am so happy I spent the money on this. I just hope it lasts awhile.
loved it

I had it used on me by my stylist. Then she tried to sell me one for $200.00 and told me it was a special deal. That night I found it here for a way better price. It shipped fast and I love it. Its every thing i wanted, at a price that i could afford. Thank you!
The Best

I have two of these irons. I love them. I love that its rounded. It makes it easy to make my curly hair super straight. I also can flip the ends if I want to. The iron gets really hot, very fast...I totally suggest this one!
CURVED FLAT IRON

This product is great! My hands have problems, so it's much easier to use than a regular curling iron, to acheive the same results. Folica is the only place to carry this item, and it was at a great price!
What a GREAT easy to use iron!

I am thrilled with my purchase so far of the HAI eLite Tong Ionic Iron. I have only had it a little less than 30days. I have had my Chi flat iron for a few years now and I was never able to get the results I really needed or got when I was in the salon chair. At my last visit to the salon my hairdresser pulled this iron out. I quickly said - Where do you get one of those and what is it called? I have very thick and course hair. I was against using all those products on it and WOW using this just keeps me from having too. I am recently married and my husband Loves the way this iron works on my hair. If this one functions and last long I will be ultimately thrilled for sure! My only disappointment is I went on to make my review and found it $20 dollars cheaper. That always upsets you when you are a new client. Just when you buy it, its another 20 less. ;-( But everyone that needs to straighten their hair. Especially if it is course, and thick! Awesome! Thanks!
