Amazing product. I was obviously skeptical and did a lot of research before I actually chose my Solia. I'm talking about being so methodical, it took me over a year to decide I would purchase this. All of my friends kept raving on the Chi Turbo and although I've used it before and it does produce really nice results...THE SOLIA is better hands down. I placed the heat on less than 375 (goes to 420) and put Tresseme heat protection on my hair...a few minutes later when I glided the Solia through my hair, it was the SOFTEST, SHINIEST and STRAIGHTEST I've ever seen with my own results. I didnt' even add other products because I wanted to see what the Solia would do my natural hair! The day before, I washed it and let it dry naturally and the results with Solia are beautiful. I am very multi-racial and have very defined wavy/curly THICK shoulder-length hair. It's big LOL... It's can be wild if I don't tame it with lots of products...My hair is so curly, you can feel the HARD WAVES starting at the scalp all the way down to the ends. Sure, I've gone to a few really nice salons to get those types of straight results but never have I had that result at home on my own. And unlike my previous cheap flatirons or even the Turbo Chi, I only had to slide it through my hair ONCE to get those results. Here it is 24 hours later and my hair is still bone straight and shiny. Amazing indeed. Now I'm wondering why in the heck it took me so long to get it~ Oh and another thing...I really do need a cut/trim to get rid of the split ends and I'm going to get one this weekend HOWEVER even with the Solia, my ends feel silky smooth and soft. I'm quite pleased. Now, I can continue to grow out my naturally curly hair (WHICH I DO LOVE BY THE WAY) but I have the option of wearing it bone straight, flowing and shiny when I want with the help of a great product AND WITHOUT any harsh chemicals (straighters, relaxer, texturizer, reverse perms, etc). Thanks Solia!!!!!!!~ |
