CHI Straightener.
Okay, so today, I went out and bought a CHI straightener. (I had a Hot Tools one, but it's too old. That's why the CHI was purchased.)
Well, I haven't used the CHI yet, and I only bought it because everyone raved about it. So, before buying it I went on amazon.com, and other websites, and looked at customer reviews for the CHI. More than half the reviews said that the CHI broke, and left damage to their hair. The ones that put the CHI down, recommended the 'Sedu' straightener.
I read the reviews for that one, and everyone RAVED over it, just LOVED it. So, I'm curious..did I make a mistake purchasing the CHI? Or does anyone have one..and have any complaints about it?
Does anyone have a Sedu? I just want to know about them both, thank you!

Sorry i can't tell you about the Sedu, but i definitally can about the CHI. I've had mine for about a year and it's still in perfect shape. And for the record, ALL hair straighteners will damage your hair, it's not just the CHI that does it. A good way to protect your hair is to use a really good conditioner/protecter. the CHI brand had a line of shampoo's and conditioners called "CHI" go figure. lol. The shampoo is called "Transformation shampoo" and the conditioner is "Transformation Treatment." Use about the size of a dime of each, the shampoo first, then the conditioner. A little bit of this stuff goes a long way so don't think i'd kidding when i say a dime size. DON'T use this shampoo as your regular shampoo, this is a shampoo designed to protect your hair from a flat iron. So wash your hair, then completly dry it. comb through your hair and when your straightening, spray a bit of "Aquage" beyond shine on the sections of hair your about to straighten. This will smoothe out curly or unruly textured hair and make it smoothe and sleek as well as protect it. Do all of this and I see no problem with you buying the CHI. If you can't find any of these products, ack your hair care lady and she will be sure to help you out.
NOTE: do NOT straighten your hair everyday, no matter which straightener you use it will fray the ends of your hair and it will be to fryed for words. The most you should ever straighten your hair with any type of straightener is at most once a week, once a month is prefured but i don't see you sticking to it. I have ringlet curls and it gets my hair board straight with a few strokes. If it works for my hair, sister it's gunna work for yours! I hope i've been as helpful as possible. Happy Holidays!
Always,

I have the CHI straightener.. And I personally love it.. You have to remember, that ANY stype of straightener is going to damage your hair one way or the other.. So Im not going to say that it doesn't damage my hair.. It just makes my hair turn out really good.. love kristin

i have a CHI and so far it hasnt broken or damaged my hair....but i also use special shampoos and products to protect my hair..like Cat Walk's Fashionista Smooth and Shine Shampoo...and Biolage shampoo and conditioner every now and then to keep my hair healthy ( it is good to change your shanmpoos every now and then to keep your hair heathy )
The whole TIGI line is a great source for things like this....(TIGI makes Bed Head and Cat Walk)
but eventually ANY straightener is going to damage your hair.......so you have to give your hair a break every now and then from staightening your hair...as long as you protect your hair w/ the right shampoos and dont strighten your hair every day for like 5 years...then you hair should be fine..
>>>> i dont know any thing about the Sedu....but im sure you can type "Sedu reaviews" in Google..and find reveiews on that!! HOPE I HELPED AND GOOD LUCK!!
