UPDATE w. PICS new flat iron

I had to leave my CHI in the dust. It was so good to me tho. I had the one without the dial and I had it for about 2 years. I bought the ProSilk Turbo iron tonight. The BSS claims its made by the same company who makes the chi :look: Its ceramic and ionic. It heats up in 2 seconds and you can adjust the heat. My crazy behind was in the shop testing it on human hair:lachen:(hey, they wanted the sale lol). It cost about 67 dollars. Pics below

update :grin:

So I detangled with Pantene (don't really like for now, still on the fence) applied Sunsilk Hydra TLC and a mix of coconut oil and water. I then dried my hair loose under my Pibbs, which took roughly 20 minutes. Then I blow dried very quickly with the comb attachment and flat ironed on 281 degrees with Fantasia IC. I just realized my USB is in my dorm so I will post the pics of my hair tomorrow. Im tellin you ladies this flat iron is the business! My hair had bounce, shine, and swaang. The pics I will post are of my hair before moisturizing. I moisturized with sunsilk straighten up and sealed with coconut oil (and only required a dime sized amount for my whole head). I then greased my scalp with my coconut oil/ tea tree oil mixture, did 4 large pincurls and put on a scarf. This is the first time in 2 months I have used heat and the first time in 2 months I could run a comb thru my hair w/o tangles. I am very tempted to go back to heat, but only once a week and on a low temp b/c my hair responds so well to it. When I rollerset my hair tangles and I get very frustrated. Anyways, like I said, if anyone is looking to purchase a flat iron, this is a keeper:yep: Oh yeah, I'm six weeks post and its time to trim I believe.

Ok, you got great results. Better results from this iron than my Sedu which cost 2x as much. I'll be getting something new, probably an FHI but this is really nice!
