How much better is the chi iron compared to cheap conair irons? What’s the difference?
I have frizzy, dry, curly hair. My conair irons just seem to not work. Whenever I straighten my hair with them, it looks very unhealthy, frizzy, and just gross. I really don't like my curly hair, I've even chemically straightened it a few times. I don't want to do that anymore though, because it's unhealthy for your hair. I can't do many styles with my curly hair either..I just hate it. So, how is the chi compared to other irons? With the chi will I be able to get stick straight hair, with no frizz? Please help.

i’m the owner of 2 CHI irons!! Love them!!! none of the others compare! my salon uses them. just remenber with curly hair take small sections to iron and be patient!!
oh yeah… worth the money! (look on ebay for great deal)
I know your situation because I used to have a conair, and trust me, it didn’t work on me either. I now have a Chi, and WOW, there is such a difference. The ceramic plating is what makes it better, and the Chi gets much hotter than any conair.
Generally, any flat iron you can buy at a place like Walgreens is not going to be as good. But it really depends on your hair type. If your hair is extremely curly, it might be harder to straighten. I would try smoothing products and make sure you use a heat seal before you iron your hair so you don’t fry it (I have Paul Mitchell heat seal).
Hope I helped!
