There may be a few reasons why my review is negative:

I first tried this flat iron at the mall. A stand was displaying these irons and using them on random people. When she used it on my hair it worked fabulously. I couldn’t even believe it. I didn’t purchase the iron that day, rather I waited until I had some extra money and found it online, at www.folica.com

(since the link on this page directs you to folica I think I’ll make a quick comment on here about what I think about their site. All of their products are reduced by many many dollars. One iron, worth $200, they were selling for $115. There have been numerous complaints against folica for faulty items, for their irons breaking within a month with sparks coming out, etc. Personally, I think folica sells defective irons, and passes them off as good ones. My mother bought an iron from them which broke within 3 months. Stay away.

I also posted a negative review on folica.com. Surprise, surprise, it was never published. The item has a 4.5/5.0 rating, yet if you go to other review sites, there are many many complaints. I was fooled by the reviews on Folica, don’t you get fooled as well.)

It came in the mail the very next day and I was so excited to use it. As soon as I pulled it out of the box I realized how light it was. I plugged it in and in a couple minutes it was hot and ready to go.

I started flat ironing my hair and the iron was SO hot, that I received a very nice burn on my thumb. My fault, whatever. I continued to iron my hair and after 15 minutes, I put it down and looked at my hair.

It was absolutely atrocious. My hair looked like I had gotten caught in a major storm. It was frizzy, puffy, dry looking. Was I doing something wrong?

I used it again the next day, and the same results. My hair never looked more disgusting than when I used this iron. I promplty returned it to Folica and invested money on a much better iron from Bed Bath & Beyond.

My mother used this iron on her hair and it seemed to work ok. I’m guessing this iron is good for people with thin hair. Mine is thick, and curly, so using this iron was virtually worthless for me.
