Customer Reviews of Infiniti by Conair SS9 1 1/2" Nano Silver Steam Straightner, Red
Customer Review: Stick with your Chi
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this as a backup flatiron when I found it dirt cheap. I was hoping that it might outperform my trusty Chi & I would have a nice, shiny new flatiron, but I should have known better. I've used it several times now and with or without steam, it simply does not straighten as well as the Chi, even with the temperature controls.
The water reservoir is ridiculously small, and you literally have to use an eyedropper to fill it. I like that it has a long power cord and automatic shut off, but ultimately neither of these features make up for the fact that this flatiron does not straighten as well as my Chi, no matter how small I make my hair sections or how many passes I make.
In places where my hair is relatively straight to begin with, it will give it a more flat, polished look, but it doesn't even come close to taming my mermaid waves in the back. I think it also makes my hair feel more dry and brittle. It's better than nothing, but you should save your money and invest in a Chi. The steam, comb and temperature controls are gimmicks that simply don't work. Skip it unless you're in some sort of a pinch and can't find a styling tool that's decent.
Customer Review: I'd save your money
Summary: 1 Stars
I was enthralled by the infomercial on this product. I debated ordering it for so long because of the cost, but decided to go for it. I actually ordered from Conair direct, and the product was on back order for a month. In fact, they lost my internet order and had me place it over the phone, and low and behold, I received two straighteners and was charged twice....
Anyways, I was still excited to try the product. I have hair that falls past my shoulders that is very thick, and naturally wavy. I filled the reservoir and turned the heat to the second highest setting. I had to further turn it up to the highest setting to get better results. I had to go over each section more than once, saving NO time! I was still left with fly-aways.
I really don't see anything wonderful about this product, except that it looks nice. I took advantage of their offer and returned it, so I lost like $23 with shipping and handling. I'd go with a better quality salon straightener, or use one of Conair's other products that are less expensive and work a lot better.
Customer Review: Yes, even I could straighten my hair!
Summary: 5 Stars
After a lifetime of dealing with high maintenance hair that never really looks good, I am impressed! Truly the only time my hair looks good is when some else does it. I have thick frizzy, curly hair that I don't usually have the time or patience to deal with. I have gone years with just air drying my hair and leaving it curly. Trying multitudes of hair products to limit the frizz. Honestly I couldn't style my hair if my life depended on it. I was not born with the natural ability to be create beautiful hair. With that said, I've been walking around for a week now looking like I went to the hair stylist everyday! My hair looks so soft, shiny and straight that my friends and family are skeptical that I myself accomplished this. My hair feels and looks healthier. And did I mention soft! My hair has never been soft! I would recommend this product to any woman that has suffered as I have through the years. It is actually easy to use. If it only takes me 20-25 min. to use, I would imagine that some one that knows what they are doing could do it in less time.Customer Review: Very nice- great price
Summary: 5 Stars
Fast and easy. I love the multiple temp, comb and steam settings, they give me much more control of my hairstyle while minimizing heat damage to my hair. The comb is also very helpful as it makes it easier to keep the streaks straight to the tips without needing to use an extra comb. The nano styles fast and I am usually done in less than 10-15 minutes. Love it!
A tad bulky. Bigger and heaver than I expected but not something one can't get used to. Might be a concern if you plan to travel with it. I also wish it came in different colors (other than red). One more thing would have been more detailed instructions, though I was able to figure it out quickly so no worries there. Sometimes hairs get stuck between the straightener and the water container.
Overall this is a great product. Even with humid air, I found my straight streaks last much longer than with my previous straightener without even the tips curling up. I also love the heat resistant storage pouch which also doubles up as a counter protector. Thumbs up!!
Customer Review: This flat iron works real well.
Summary: 5 Stars
The Infinit by Conair works really well. I'm African-American woman with about medium thinkness hair with no relaxer. It straightened my hair easily. I also tried it on my sister and mom. My sister has really thick, coarse and long hair that does have relaxer in it (although you can't tell). That flat iron easily straighten her hair out. My mom's hair isn't as thick as it use to be and she also has an relaxer. I used it on her hair it and easily straightened her hair also. Her hair is still a bit thicker then mine. So, there you have it 3 different textures of hair that the Infiniti has worked on. I would highly recommend this to any of my friends or strangers. It is easier to use then the Maxi Glide because it isn't as bulky. Now I haven't tried the steam fuction yet but I can only imagine it would only improve how the hair looks.Infiniti by Conair SS9 1 1/2" Nano Silver Steam Straightner, Red
