CROC Classic Black Titanium 1.5'' Flat Iron

I love this flat iron so much. It heats up quickly and doesn't ever make my hair feel dry or damaged. I have relatively thick hair that can get frizzy easily, but the Croc flat iron allows me to style my hair quickly and effortlessly. I highly recommend this product and may even purchase another one for my travel bag.

I have had this flat iron for just under 3 years and it is already going to have to be replaced. The iron will randomly shut off and then it takes several minutes before you can turn it back on. This was my first time trying Croc and while I do enjoy the way it glides through the hair and does a good job not damaging, I wouldn't recommend it due to the lack of life you can expect to get from the product. My previous straighteners lasted for 5+ years so I will probably go back to one of them or find something new this time.

During 50% off beauty sale in Oct. 2022 purchased Croc Rose Gold 1.5 flat iron because i had tried a friends and really liked it. I see that ULTA is no longer selling that one. I registered the warranty online. I used it maybe twice a week with heat protectant. In April 2023, 6 months later, i plugged it in, i smelled a very slight hot smell but didn't think anything of it. I always used the second to coolest heat setting. I have medium past shoulder length slightly fine blonde bair. So i passed the Croc through a section of my hair. On one side then the other. I didnt smell my hair burning but it turned all crinkly and split ends exactly where i used the Croc, from scalp to ends, really bad. I hve used protein masks and olive oil and all the products i have and a week later its still burnt. I have never seen anythkng like this. To top it off, the next time I plugged in the Croc it was completely dead. No power. Still looks fine, stored in original box, just will not start. I tried to find my warranty on the company website and no luck! So sent email and an employee wrote me back and asked for me to make a video of the flat iron and sent him which is hard because the email wont accept video unless its about ten seconds. I sent a video plugging into two different outlets and trying to turn it on. I also made sure to send a video of the section of burnt hair. My hair is smooth with one chunk that looks like I just took out a very tight braid. I had used dry bar hot toddy for protection but it must have been searing hot. I am waiting to hear back from the rep at Croc but want to save others from the same problem. I think they make you pay shipping to return and get a new one.

I've bought two in the past year and a half and they both just stopped working. Croc definitely needs to figure out the defects of the mechanics of this straightener. It's a shame because it does a good job for the short time it worked. Do not recommend.

My hair is a 3A. If u have fine hair I would recommend this. If u have medium to course hair I definitely would not recommend. I always put. It on the highest setting which is 450. It definitely does not get that hot. It does heat up pretty quickly tho. I always have to go over the same piece of hair multiple times. Like I said not the best for my hair.
