    I don't know my brand off the top of my head, but just getting a wider one cut my time in half! Your picture looks like it's about a 1" plate, so try going for a 3" instead. Good luck! :)

    GHD or Sedu.

    being a hair stylist I recommend these brands.

    also if you have an Ulta Store near you they have a 20% of coupon going on now that you can use on irons.

    I love my 1" but don't know the name. 450 and heats up instantly.




    not kidding either.

    I can't believe no one has mentioned the T3 irons. Stop looking and buy one of these:

    I have a red devil one that works great. I find that the cheap ones just don't work well. Mine goes up to 400 degrees, and it is so much faster than the cheaper ones I had before. And yes it is ceramic.

    and if you dont want to spend the money on a chi.. GVP is the knock-off chi version,it works just as well as the chi. you can get it for about $60,if the price hasnt went up. (smaller plates are better than the thick ones by the way)

    also, anti-frizz syrums helps just run it through there after you blow dry and then brush your hair
    and do a deep conditioner in your hair and see if that helps, you can get deep conditioner at sally's fairly cheap. i deep condition mine twice a month and my hair does some crazzy stuff.. i promise it doesnt get to lookin good on its own.
    but, i also did find when i put layers and when they thinned my hair out that my thick hair wasnt so thick and that it was easier to manage!

    Dont forget heat protectant spray! and i hope this helps!

    I have a Corioliss flat iron, but I must say that is one impressive bacon fryer.

    This! My daughter has one and loves it. I just bought her another one for Xmas as she has worn out the old one. Expensive but it is the only thing that works well with her very thick hair. It used to take her hours but not now with this iron.

    As well as a really good straightener, using the right product makes a huge difference too. I do my hair around every 5-7 days otherwise it's a huge hassle.

    I have natural, kinky, curly, African-American 4C hair (Google image 4c hair -- CURLLLLYY) and I used to use a CHI on my extensions and when I had my hair relaxed (chemically straightened for those that don't know the term). I went natural in June and I now use a Karmin G3 Salon Pro -- works lovely on my hair. My best friend, has VERY THICK red, VERY curly hair (she's Caucasian) similar to mine almost and uses a Rusk flat iron that she loves. I do blow dry my hair to make it as straight as possible when I wear it straight, but I love my flat iron.

    Cheers!

    I get all mine bent upright. I'd leave all my shots out to the right if I swung a set of flat irons...

    :wink: The bacon might be what broke it but what a fabulous idea for ooking bacon for one! I hate using the stove!

    Oh and I love my flat iron. It was a gift. I think it's a Revlon but it's a Wet2Dry. I NEVER flat iron my hair when it's wet but I sweat a LOT and my hair can still be "damp" 6 hours after washing..
