Sedu vs GHD vs Solano Flat Irons Sapphire?

Rachel asked:

Ok well I am buying a flat iron, and I have to make a decision before 12:00 am, Feb 3rd. I am looking at the Sedu (which I was originally going to buy) Then, I saw people reviewing the GHD saying it was better, then I LOVE flat hair, and I saw people saying the Solano Sapphire flat iron makes your hair extremely flat! So I ask you, which one?

Reply:

I swear by GHD. Not only do they last forever (had mine 3 years and still works like new) they are durable, light and easily portable. You can also curl and wave with them. They straighten hair really well and quickly and it keeps straight, unlike some others.

Many kinds of hair straightening iron have made their way in many a department store, out there to tempt you with their numerous offers and promises of lasting salon-worthy beauty. But how do you choose among the many kinds of hair straightening iron that are out there? For starters, you might want to narrow down your choices to two types, consider your hair condition and the kinds of look you would most likely be going for and finally decide on one. But to start off, there are two types of hair straightening iron that are being snapped up left and right by frantic buyers in desperate need of their hair beauty fix: Tourmaline and coil metal heaters.

To start off, tourmaline-based hair straightening irons are a bit expensive and may cost you a pretty penny or two, but that also means the build quality is there. Start up time of heat for these hair straightening irons usually takes a twenty seconds to warm up and around another thirty seconds to get to the professional heat. Be warned, however, that not all of these kinds of hair straightening irons that are made or tourmaline have settings which you can control – so to check up on the speed of the heat be sure to look for one with settings.

A lot of people say that the good thing about tourmaline hair straightening irons is that the effect it has on one's hair can truly withstand the drying capability of the most humid of all weathers. This is because tourmaline hair straightening irons are designed to rotate the heat from the unit to your hair and lock in not just the flattened out part, but also the shine and softness that is projected by the heat. Most people say this is a really good buy worth investing in. On the other end of the spectrum is what you call hair straightening irons that have coil metal heaters. These are pretty cheap and you can get them at an easy price. Be warned, however, that these kinds have been known to scorch hair if you are not careful.

A lot of people have been able to manage the pace of heat that flows out from these types of hair straightening irons, but for newbies it can get pretty tricky if you are on the slow side. A lot of users have also commented that the heat distribution of these kinds of hair straightening irons is pretty fast so it does not end up sealing in your look – some have even said that it is a bit uneven because you end up with some parts that are truly dry while some are a bit damp.

Therefore, experts recommend that should you find yourself stuck with this kind of hair straightening irons then you should blow dry your hair a bit to let the dampness get out, iron pretty quickly in intervals while putting your head underneath the air conditioner in between. These two are your best bets depending on the kind of budget that you have allocated for your hair straightening irons – the choice is yours!
