Andis Ceramic Flat Iron

These are crappy irons. I literally just got the tangerine twist edition and it didnt even last one month before the ceramic wore down and I can now see the metal. The regular one in the picture I had prior actually lasted about six months, which I think isnt bad for 20 bucks or so, but it's just better to invest in a more expensive flat iron. I do however love the auto on/off features on …Read more

Amazing straightener I have smooth wavy hair and I put the heat setting to about the middle.

My only complaint is that, compared to more expensive brands it doesn't glide very well, like you must work a bit so it moves smooth..

OTHER THAN THAT.
Lovelovelove this.

First off, let me say that this iron has some good qualities along with bad. I purchased this flat iron a couple of months ago and was really excited because it was so cheap. I figured it seemed like a very good flat iron because it is recommended for thick or coarse hair. I was amazed when I started using it because it didn’t take long to heat up at all; the temperature being so high got my hair …Read more

I just straightened my hair with the 2 inch Andis straightener and it worked amazing for my hair. At first it hurt to touch my hair because it was still hot but I gave it a couple seconds and tried again and my hair still felt as soft as it did with my curly hair. Maybe even softer! The temperature gets pretty hot a low setting so I suggest you use a heat spray like I had so it doesn't …Read more

I've had this flat iron for almost a year and a half now. It's my first flat iron, and until this weekend, I thought it worked great. Then I used a Chi flat iron for the first time and realized just how bad my flat iron really is. It doesn't completely straighten my hair, and I have to go over my hair several times before it's even considered to be straight. And even then …Read more

I have the 1 inch Andis ceramic flatiron. It looks like the one pictured. This is my first flatiron and I bought it on the recommendation of a new hairstylist who suggested I might want to try flatironing my hair. Normally, my stylists suggest volumizing rather than flattening. So not being sure if flattening is something I'd really want to do, I didn't want to shell out $100 for an …Read more

I currently have this flat iron, and it gets extremely hot to the point that I have to turn it off and straighten my hair for a while. Because of the heat protection serum I use my hair comes out extremely shiny and doesn't have the 'burnt' hair smell at all. The coating has become to come off but I've had it for the past 2 years. It's not thin enough to create curls but …Read more

PROS: Very inexpensive. Auto shut off (which is not as common in these as you would th
ink.) Heat range to choose from.


CONS: From reading these reviews, now I know why I've started to smell a burning hair smell when using (the posts here explain about the coating wearing off.) But mine has taken over six months to wear off.


ALTERNATES: I've …Read more

This is one of the best straighteners out there. It does not burn my hair like others, in the past, have. I have it set on a little above 10, because of my natural wavy hair, and it comes out stick straight. I love how my hair is silky and not frizzy from this. I love this straightener so much that after my first one broke (looked like it turned on but never heated up), I bought a second. FYI it …Read more

I absolutly loved this iron while it worked. I read all the reviews and know that after about six months the ceramic coating would come off. But my ceramic coating came of after exactly 3 uses. I only straigten my hair once a week. I am AA with wavy hair. I couldn't even believe that it happened. It really did straigten my hair for three weeks. But it wasn't worth the 16 dollars because …Read more
