Best CHI Hair straightener?

I've been doing some research, and it looks like CHI's and GHD's are the two most popular straightener's out there with the best reviews. I can't really afford a GHD, but the CHI's are closer to my price range. However, there are so many different kinds to choose from! Does anyone know which CHI is the best? I have thick black shoulder length hair, with a wave in it (or a loose curl, depending on its mood!).Best CHI Hair straightener?
The basic CHI is all you need. Even though it is small, it does a great amount of work. I have thick wavy hair and it works great for me. Also, ive had this one for about 2 years and it hasnt broken yet, as did all my other straightners. I am a receptionist at a hair salon, and we dont use any other flat irons except the CHI ones.Best CHI Hair straightener?
I really don't want to tell you the wrong thing , but save that extra penny or two and buy the ghd hair straightner! They work the best! I should know. I have one!
the basic chi is great. the one inch is all you need becuase it is not so big you have much better control. you can get for about $90 if you search the internet. they have a lifetime warranty. my friends broke and she got it fixed for $35. i can remember my hair before chi and i dont want to!
To be honest, there really isn't that big a deal between a $25 straightener and a $200 one. I would recommend trying something not that expensive but then again it is your money. I have really thick hair that does its own thing just like yours and I bought a $20 straightener and it works wonders. Yes, it takes awhile but then again my hair also reaches the lower portion of my back.
i personaly think that tresemme are very good straighteners. it all depends on the heat range you want. get a pair of straightners with a heat range of 100-120 degree's celcues.
I have the original CHI iron. I have shoulder length, very curly hair. I have tried other irons and this is the only one that works for me. I usually put a straigtening balm in and blow dry halfway. Then when my hair is dry I use the iron. I have even used it when my hair was dry and curly and it straightened it great. It is definetly worth the money. I have bought numerous irons for $35 or $40 and ended up pitching it because it didn't work worth a crap.
I purchased an orginal CHI around 2 years ago. I highly recommend it because it works very well. I have tried the CHI turbo, but did not like it nearly as much as the original. Hope this helps! :)
