But, I recommend Chi straighteners. They're around 150 dollars (maybe a few dollars more or a few dollars less... I don't know the exact price), but I've had mine for years and it still works like it did when I first got it. They work a heck of a lot better than any straightener I got from Target or Wal*Mart.
I do know someone who got a straightener from Sally's Beauty Supply that's almost exactly like a Chi for about 70 dollars.
