I have a Karmin G3 Salon Pro Styling Iron and it was such a good idea to invest in a professional flat iron! The plates are pure ceramic tourmaline and they go up to 460F so they work on all hair types. Great flat iron!

Not something I use anymore, but there are lots of good brands on this list!

I am still Undecided , I heard Chi's stop working within 3 months of purchase , & I heard Ghd's are not that great either . I use to have a Remington wet to straight flat iron and it was crap. It left my hair greasy and not straight

For me the best flat iron is the Karmin G3 Salon Pro which causes less damage and keeps my hair soft, shiny and super straight. I luv it !! :P

I almost purchased the conair shiny styles, thank goodness I didn't waste my money on that. I wouldn't have thrown it away though, I would have taken it back for a refund so I could get a better one.
