After hesitating on the price, I let myself try and offered myself for Christmas this straightener (a little early). Having read reviews of other buyers, I tested the straightener receipt. I was very satisfied with the result. I have curly hair and thick but I kind smooth for years and go to the hairdresser regularly. The smoother immediately gave my hair a nickel finish, as if out of my hair salon. The result is just perfect: smooth hair as chopsticks, a time of ultra fast heating in the morning, the hair preserved by the ceramic straightener: it's really great. The big plus: the comments of friends, colleagues and relatives: your hair is beautiful !! In combination with other pro products (shampoo + mask pro pro keratin), it's all good. Hair express their beautiful nature all alone alike! Feel free girls. This is an investment that quickly "smoothed" over time :-)
