Ladies, I need your advise
My wife wants a Farouk CHI hair straitner for Christmas but there are a gazillion types. She says she wants it just to straiten her hair. Anyone have experience with these gigamathingies? If so which one would you recommend? Also, are there any accessories that should go with it?

Thanks bunches,

1. Here.

Love it and that's a good price. No "accessories" needed.

3. It's ceramic, gets hot quickly, stays hot, and LAST.

The $15 one suck and break very quickly with normal use.

4. I see said the blind man, hey can I pick your brain about one more thing?
Earrings...

The type that



and the type that



The top one looks like it would drive you crazy, does it matter much as far as how they go in your ear?

I know, I sound like I just walked out of the jungle...

6. I only wear the "Fish Hook" or hoop types.

The ones with the "post" secured with the tiny little backs are far more uncomfortable, tend to pinch and fall off and get lost.

Drive me nuts/get lost:


Good:

7. Why don't you look in her jewelry box to see which style she prefers?
I find the dangly ones (top) more comfortable than the posts (bottom).

9. Check her ears, too!!
Just because they're in her jewelry box doesn't mean she wears them. :)

5. I have that in pink.
I lucked out and got it for $65 on Amazon. They have the best prices. Mine came with a couple of styling products.

13. My daughter has the Chi and swears by it.
She's had other brands but says there's no comparison in the quality and effect it has on her hair. She loves their products too.
