Sleek & Straight
I have heard a couple mixed reviews about the Limited Edition 1″ Solia Pink Flat Iron so I decided to try this for myself.
Solia Pink Limited Edition 1″ Flat Iron
This iron comes equipped with both ceramic and tourmaline ion plates, promising shinier hair.
The temperature is modifiable, and actually goes up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit; so this iron is suitable for all hair types- even extremely thick hair.
For those of you who do not have the time to blow dry your hair prior to straightening- this iron allows you to straighten with wet hair! It includes autosense, an important piece of technology that determines the state of your hair.
The best aspect of this iron is the fact that it is only an inch. One inch irons allow versatility- working from the very root of your hair to avoid any marks. With thin irons you are able to make simple waves or curls, making this straightener a 2 in 1 deal!
CONS:
Over prolonged use, the plates seem to get rusted and lose their quality. This should not occur when using professional irons like this one.
Hair also tends to get stuck and pulled on the plates after continued use.
RATING:
6.5/10

Curls?
Lately, I have been loving clip-less curling irons; they are also known as “wands.” These clip-less irons are great because they show zero marks that curling irons with clips usually leave.
Looking for big, natural looking, beach curls?
Try Enzo Milano’s 31mm Professional Clipless Curling Iron
This is the largest barrel size in the Enzo Milano line of curling irons. I love this iron! It gets warm in under a minute, so it is super efficient and quick to use. By simply holding strands of your hair, you can effortlessly make waves without the negative result of leaving unwanted marks on your hair. I would definitely recommend this curler if you are looking for relaxed curls that look more like waves; this will be an excellent look for spring and summer 2013.
Having used other Enzo Milano’s curlers, you know quality is their specialty. This product comes equipped with a two year warranty to ensure that you will be successfully curling your hair for years.
Think 31mm curls are too big? Looking for tighter, neater curls? 18mm and 25mm Enzo Milano curling irons are available. Be cautious, any curlers smaller than 18mm have a risk of clumping up your hair and making your girls too squished together. Usually the thicker the barrel, the looser and more natural the curls will look.
I have used other brands of clipless irons; however, this particular model struck me. The 31mm is the largest size barrel I found at the time, allowing professional curls to be made at home. The “on” button also lights up once it is in use, making it particularly useful when knowing that the iron is on, important for safety when dealing with a product that heats to 320 degrees Fahrenheit.
CONS:
This product is really quite excellent- no real complaints from us. Maybe the curler could be a couple degrees hotter, but I suspect this is for safety reasons incase people leave their hair on the curler for too long.
RATING:
9.5/10
