Seems the hair straighteners that cost under $50 just don't straighten well enough. My daughters hair in particular, she says her cousin's hair straightener gets very hot and works really well, but I think it was $100 or more. Any suggestions on those?:confused:

Looony2nz, ceramic hair straighteners work well on difficult to manage hair. However, hair straighteners that are 100% ceramic seem to work better than and ceramic coated ones. With ceramic straighteners, the Infra Red radiation produced from some high temperature ceramic plates can help seal the moisture in your hair so that you hair does not loose its condition. This can actually improve the condition of you hair. You should try looking on eBay, they a selection flat irons at low prices.
