Most Helpful Positive Review Makes my hair incredibly smooth, sleek, straight and shiny! I have waist-length, slightly wavy, frizzy hair that has always been extremely difficult to straighten and achieve long-lasting results. This Hot Tools Professional 1" Digital Salon Flat Iron outperformed any other hair straightener I have tried in the past and left my hair incredibly smooth, completely frizz-free, and best of all my hair stayed shiny and sleek all day! The golden nano-ceramic plates are heated evenly, add micro-shine and glide effortlessly over each hair strand, without any pulling or causing damage to my delicate, bleached hair. I love that this hair straightener has a digital display that shows the actual temperature while it is heating up, and that it switches from a blue display while heating up to a green display when it has reached the selected temperature. It also heats up incredibly quickly! It took less than ten seconds to reach my desired temperature, which was really impressive. I also love how comfortable it is to hold and that it is lightweight, with a long cord that can spin 360 degrees and will not restrict your necessary movement while styling your hair! The rounded edges on the plates allow me to create beautiful loose curls, as well as flipping hair in or out along the edges. Overall, this hair straightener is made with durable, high quality materials and I personally love the results I get! It is so easy and quick to use and gives me consistently beautiful results without burning or pulling on my hair. I highly recommend you give this straightener a try, you won't be disappointed! Amazing!
Most Helpful Critical Review Gets the job done This is my second Hot Tools flat iron (the first one lasted 6 years..). The iron gets the job done, but the flashing blue light is VERY annoying. Had I seen the response on the Q&A part of this item, I would not have purchased it. Having to unplug and plug in the iron every time I use it will get old quickly. Whoever came up the idea of a continuously flashing blue light, when the unit is OFF, should find a new job.
Loved my first Hot Tool flat iron, but def regret my decision to purchase this one.

Works well so far 4
yadi from West Covina, CA
Only used it once & so far it straightens but leaves my hair a bit poofy. Only tried once so i think it needs to be used a couple more times to get truer results.
wont work long. 3

Van the E-biker from California (US)
I use the flat iron right after I wash and dry my hair to get the fullness out of it and make it straighter.I have never used a different flat iron so I have nothing to compare it to.
it's ok but not the best 3
hinata_89 from Kansas
it heats up ok it gets the job done. My reason for a three star is because pulls on my fine thin hair.

Great Product 5

I love this straightener, I've been using the same one for almost four years now, yes that's how long it has lasted, i bought it back in November 2016. So all i can say is that is a great quality product.
Not what I had hoped 2
evlxz from WY
I have been wanting a new straightener for some time and I went with this one since it did not mention any snagging on the ends of hair. Unfortunately, this snagged my ends so bad it hurt. Also when you turn it off, it has a bright blue blinking light that keeps blinking unless you unplug it - super annoying. It required multiple passes to get the hair straight as well. I have fine but thick hair.
Great flat iron! 5
Stephax from Clarksville, Tennessee
I love this flat iron! The titanium plates glide very smoothly and don't snag. Heats up very quickly. It takes about 20 seconds to heat to 340 degrees. The digital display is great, I prefer it over a dial. It even saves your heat setting after you turn it off. It even glides really well when doing flat iron curls. I would definitely recommend this flat iron to anyone!
Faulty Product very disappointed 1
Aulani from Arizona
This flat iron won't stay on for longer than a minute before it just shuts off. I've tried everything to make it work. I'm so disappointed that I threw away money on it. Obviously I got a faulty product but I just didt have the the opportunity to return it so now I'm stuck w a flat iron that shuts off literally after every pass.
loved it but maybe for thin hair 4
sam from wyoming
It worked really well on my hair. Didnt leave any crease lines or anything. I have very fine hair though and set it to 350. I did see alot of people say it doesnt work on thick hair. I used it on my daughter who has thick wavy hair. even at 400 it struggled to straighten completely without going over it 5 times in thin sections. so perhaps it's not good for thicker curly hair.
Decent flat iron. 4

Love the digital aspect to it because I don't have to guess how hot it is. Makes my hair very smooth
Doesn't hold 2
hals03 from Georgia
I was really excited about this flat iron because it had great reviews for thick hair. This flat iron will not hold the straightness. It takes like 4 swipes to straighten a thin piece, and when i wake up, it's curly again. I have a cheap revlon one that pulls me hair so I wanted a nicer one but even that one holds for days. Returning today :(
3 years strong! 5
Suzy from Minnesota
I've had this for 3 years now! I use it almost daily to curl my hair and my only complaint is the cord twists around a lot. It's annoying but this is the best hair tool I've ever had, even my 20 year old daughter tries to steal it from me.
This product is ok. 4
Ahuggins85 from Hartsville SC
I like this product, however it keeps cutting off during use. I can't get it to stay on longer than a minute or two at a time. It does work well though and only takes one pass to stalraighten. I love the digital display.
Amazing quality 5
thisgirl00 from PA
I straighten my hair a lot. A few times a week usually. I am super picky about hair straighteners. My hair is super thick, wavy and down below my shoulders. Most straighteners do not work well for me. They usually leave my hair fluffy and only partially straightened no matter how much time I spend on it. This hair straightener is amazing. The smaller size makes it easier to hold and use. Even though I can do less hair at a time, it still straightens my hair very quickly. I can do my whole head in under 10 minutes. That is something that isn't able to be done with most. This gives me super straight, sleek hair at the end. There is no pulling or getting caught on the plates. I really hate when straighteners do that. The heat up time is crazy fast. I had straighteners that took minutes to get to my desired temperature, which is usually 395-400°. This one took seconds! This is honestly one of my favorite straighteners I have ever used, and I have used a lot of them. I have zero complaints. It is definitely high quality and works amazingly well.
Best straightener I've used! 5
Katrina from Montana
This straightener is so smooth, doesn't snag your hair at all. Works super well and fast. Curls hair easily too. I don't know if I'll buy another brand again!
breakage :( 3
G from Maryland
I wanted to love this after reading reviews but found that it snagged and broke so many hairs after each pass. Blah. I have long, curly, fine hair.

I have used many different flat irons as part of my daily hair straightening routine and have to say the Hot Tools Professional 1" Digital Salon Flat Iron is by far the best one I have used. It heats up at rapid speed, has control buttons conveniently located on the side, and a digital temperture readout. Fits comfortably in my hand. I have below shoulder length hair and also find with using this flat iron it takes me less time to straighten my hair as the plates glide through my hair without tugging and I find that I don't have to go over a section of hair repeatedly to get smooth straight results. Another plus for me is the 8 ft swivel cord as I can plug it in and sit down a few feet away at my vanity light and use it. My favorite feature is the 2 hr. auto shut-off, it gives me peace of mind as I can't tell you how many times I have left for work forgetting to shut-off a hair tool only to return 8 hrs later and find it still turned on.
Amazing Straight Iron! 5
Steph from Rochester, NY
This flat iron is amazing! It is lightweight and heats up quickly. It makes straightening my hair take half the time!
Heats Fast! 5
Chrstn from Columbus, Ohio
I received this for review and wasn't sure how it would compare to an expensive competitor brand of flat iron that I already own. I ended up liking the Hot Tools Pro flat iron better! It heated quickly and shows the temperature climbing as it heats up. Then when it is heated the digital temperature display changes colors from blue to green so you can see at a glance that you're ready to go. The straitening plates glided smoothly through my hair, which is thin but course/wavy and past shoulder length. I also found this iron very easy to use to create straightening iron curls, which usually I struggle with my other iron getting caught, the Hot Tools Pro glided through my hair easier when curly and left my hair with a nice shine.
