hi guys!!! so it wasn't until recently that i investigated into my chipping chi iron. turns out, it's actually a counterfeit chi. yesss. i bought it off ebay shortly after i graduated high school, so i've had it a while. anyway, i decided to bring it to sally's because right now they have a coupons if you bring in any old styling tools and purchase a new one ($5 off ≥$24.99 or $10 off ≥$59.99). so, after some investigation, i decided on a one inch one 'n only argan heat flat iron which is currently on sale for $49.99. so i got it for about $40 with tax after the coupon and 15% off.
first impressions of the argan heat iron: i love the colors of this one. online they only showed one in black with gold plates, but i love how this one has these pale/pastel pink plates! it comes with an adjustable temperature setting, 0-30 (temperature equivalents are listed in the manual), and an on/off button. i don't like how the LED doesn't flash when the iron is ready, if i'm running around doing other things, it's solid red the whole time. i also don't like how the temperature dial is on the outside of the iron and you could potentially rub your finger along it and inadvertently change it while you're using it. but it does seem like you do need to put a bit of effort into actually changing the setting. i set it to 20 and thought it was a pretty good temperature to start. i did not use a thermal protector before using the iron, using it afterward as a setting spray, so to speak. overall, i really liked the results; compared to the faker my hair feels shinier and healthier, not dry. i approve. ~Lin-chan ^.~
