I rated the Sedu Ionic Ceramic Pro 1.5" flat iron a "3" because it did straighten my hair. However, for the price and after all of these rave reviews, from numerous websites, I expected it to be better than the Remington Shine therapy flat iron ($50)--but it is not better. In fact, it is not even as good. The Remington Shine (with avocado conditioners) did add a lot of shine to my hair. This model of Sedu gave a little lustre. The Remington Shine flat iron did not pull my hair at all. This Sedu pulled my hair a little (very disappointed!). The Remington Shine flat iron was used on my relative’s very curly, super thick hair and the results were wonderful—shiney hair, no pulling, straightened, and in record time. I used that same iron on my hair and was amazed. (I have tight curl, wavy, shoulder length, thinnish hair; I am African-American). The Remington Shine therapy flat iron was very easy to use, straightening was so fast, my hair was very shiny and there was absolutely NO pulling. Today, I used my new Sedu. As I said in the beginning, it did the job of straightening quickly, left a little lustre, but it did pull. For $115 vs. $50 for Remington Shine flat iron I expected better of the Sedu and it let me down. It is not worth the money.
I understand users being thrilled with Sedu if other irons can't do what it can do but watch out Sedu, now there is an iron that can out do Sedu and for half the price. |
