Wow girl!! I did not know you were natural! We have slightly similar hair textures so I may purchase the flatiron you have. Girl, you need to drop yahoo and come over to fotki plus buy a digicam so I can add you to my fotki friends list. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I got mine as a gift, but my SO bought it from www.aveyou.com. Right now, it's only $110 there, so you should hop on it /images/graemlins/smile.gif I think that the only difference between this and CHI is that the FHI can get hotter (goes over 400 degrees, but CHI only goes up to 300 degrees I think). HTH
I had a Remington flat iron that i would set on 360. Now I have a Chi Ultra (I love so much more, the ceramic plates are amazing) and I am not sure what the heat temp is on since it has no setting. But I think it is around 370/380. I might go back and get one with a heat set on there but for now it works.
I flat iron my fine relaxed hair with my Sedu Revolution on 260-325. I protect my gems with Kerastase Ciment Thermique and top that with Redkin smooth lock heat glide. I've never experienced any results like it EVAH!
I'm natural my hair ranges from 3B to 4C. I use the BaByliss Pro BAB2590 flat iron and my temp is between 360 and 380. The 360 for my 3B/3C and 380 for the 4A /4B curls.
Hi! I'm new here and just saw this thread. I only occasionally flat iron, mainly for smoothing & sealing.
Temperature: About 140 to 190 degrees Fahrenheit. I do my bangs higher at about 230 to 270 Fahrenheit. Brand of Flat iron: FHI Runway Hair texture: Natural
When I did flat iron, I would go no higher than 250-270 and do it in small sections. Higher than that is not good for my fine hair. I haven't yet flat ironed my natural hair, but I still won't be using it higher than the temps I posted above.
I dont own any pro flat irons but I just got the Remington pearl flat iron and im in love! One pass at 350-380 on my dense coarse hair and im good to go!
