I dont straighten my hair much but when i do i have 2 straighteners. I have a CHI Air straightener and i have the new Brush Straightener. I still think the regular straighteners work better. The Brush takes a few going over to get it straight. Hair doesnt stick in the brush at all to brush & straighten so you do it 5 times in 1 spot. Tangles hair. Made my hair frizzy. The heat dial goes down all by itself which is very annoying! Always have to wait for it to go up to high temp. I guess moving the straightener in your hair calms the temp, doesnt make sense. Used it 1 time and not interested in trying it again. Was only $3 online so no complaint but would definately not be happy customer paying in store price. Not the greatest! Every hair type is different but if it didnt work in my long, fine hair it wont work with Short hair. Cant even get to the base of head.
