Customer Reviews of Revlon RV045 Perfect Heat Professional Straightener with Ceramic, 2 Inch
Customer Review: Great value!
Summary: 5 Stars
I wanted to get a straightener but wasn't sure which brand or what kind to buy. I asked my hairstylist about straighteners and she said that price wasn't really important--cheaper products could be just as effective as more expensive ones. The only things you need to watch out for (especially if you color your hair or have dry hair from styling, etc.) are that there are adjustable heat settings and ceramic plates rather than metal, because it won't burn your hair that way. This is a great buy because it has up to 25 heat settings and ceramic plates. It heats up within about a minute or two and only takes about 5 to 7 minutes for me to get my hair extremely straight (my hair is naturally straight and fine but I have a lot of it). I have had this product for about a year now and have never had any problems with it. Highly recommended!Customer Review: no so hot
Summary: 3 Stars
It do not have this model hence the 3 stars, but recently purchased the Revlon flat iron that has a rounded edge for about the same price point. It could not straighten a baby's hair. My hair is wavy but not curly. The heat is so low and never fully come up to a temp that is useful. I was using an old Hot Tools model and did not want to spend big bucks on a ceramic salon iron but was very disappointed with my new purchase. Make sure your iron goes to 400 degrees f or you will not get a good product plus after research I found that plated ceramic irons can chip easily and reveal the metal plate underneath that snags your hair. In this case it really does pay to get a quality iron and you can get them a great prices on EBAY ( you don't have to spend more than $50). Don't waste your time on this.Customer Review: ALL YOU NEED
Summary: 5 Stars
I read several reviews when looking for a flat iron and they terrified me. The only good reviews were for VERY expensive flat irons. Others warned of short life spans and melting handles. I bought this flat iron because it was afordable and I thought I would take my chances. Well, I love it! It has been all that I wanted and needed. It heats up very quickly, and the ceramic iron does not stick to your hair, even with heavy product use. It has an adjustable heat setting which has been the best feature for me. I have very fine hair so I don't need the iron to be very hot. I set it between 3 and 5 for perfectly straight hair. Other irons only have on/off, the heat from those would fry my hair.
I have been very happy with my purchase and highly recommend it.Customer Review: Great Product!
Summary: 5 Stars
I used to use the "turbo Chi"--the one with the red velvet on the outside. It was my roomate's and she moved out so I got this one for my birthday. It works just as well as the chi for about 1/6 of the price. My hair is VERY curly and EXTREMELY thick and this straightened my hair in less time than the chi. The different heat settings are great and I love that's 2 inches--straightening goes by much faster that way. I would definately recommend this product to someone looking for a straightener with ceramic plates. The only thing that I didn't like, which really didn't even bother me that much, is that the part you hold on too can get kind of hot but it's nothing intolerable.Customer Review: Works Well For A While
Summary: 2 Stars
I've had this flat iron for about 8 months. I only use it three or four times a week. It worked really well the first 6 months, but lately it doesn't seem to get as hot as it used to. Now it takes quite an effort to get my hair completely smooth (my hair is already stick straight, but gets lots of flyaways). My hairstylist uses the Chi and every time I go in to get my hair done I walk out with perfectly smooth hair - and it only takes him a couple of swipes with the Chi. The Revlon used to be that easy, but now I have to go over and over and over each section of hair in order to get decent results. I wouldn't recommend the Revlon for long-term use. It doesn't seem to hold up.
