Belson Professional Ceramic Straightening Iron 1 1/4" #2032

I bought 2 different brands of flat irons and returned both of them before finding this love of my life! It heats up within about 20 seconds. And when I say heats up, I mean it's HOT! I originally had it on almost full heat b/c that's what I had to do with my old flat iron, but this one almost burned me at full heat. I turned it way down b/c burn marks on the back of the neck aren't very flattering. I have pretty wavy hair and this flat iron straightened my hair with one or two swipes of it. It's comfortable to hold and doesn't snag my hair. No need to spend $200 on a professional model; I can't imagine any flat iron working better. I love it. I hope to have a long-lasting straightening relationship with this one!

Bought two, on for me and one of my daughters. She used a friends and loved it. Now we both have our own and it works great!! She has a more expensive one and was not nearly as pleased with that one, it was in the $100 range.

I purchased this flat iron at a bargain store around 2 years ago, and it is still working miracles! :) I have frizzy, uncontrollably wavy hair that falls just past my bra strap, and this little guy tames it in 20 minuets! However, I would not recommend this to those who want flat, pin-straight hair. The reason I like this product is because it does not make your hair flat, it allows it to have volume while being kept fairly straight. It does not last the entire day for me, but that may be because of my climate an the fact my hair frizzes and waves when exposed to even just a little moisture.

After all that love for this flat iron, you may be wondering why i gave it 3 stars...
For some reason, it has been giving my hair A LOT of static recently. It may be it's age, but this is terribly annoying.

Nonetheless, great product. I would totally recommend this to anyone looking for a cheap alternative to the pricey flat irons out there. Happy shopping...Read more
