Everyone seems to want a Flat iron today. Whether your an on the go mom or a teenager, a flat iron will get you that sleek look that you deserve. The two best selling flat irons on the market today are Farouk Chi one inch and Paul Mitchell 1 3/8 inch. They are both remarkably amazing flat irons. And this is coming from a hair dresser who flat irons hair all day every day.  Their pros are endless: They both get 400 degrees, they both are the perfect size for any hair type (thin, thick, normal, short, long, medium, fine, coarse), they both have pure ceramic plates, they both have swivel cords, they both have warranties, and they both achieve a sleek smooth look that everyone craves. If straight isnt your style, you can achieve smooth curls or even waves with this tool. ITS AWESOME!  Ok now for the cons of the flat irons- what one lacks the other has. And that's the truth. Chi gets to 400 degress but stays there. For those thin hair customers or customers who just need a retouch really don't need the full force 400 degrees. Paul Mitchell smoothing iron has a temperature setting so you can turn it down. Now to me, that is the only con of these fabulous flat irons. I hope this helps you make your decision. You really cant go wrong with either of these flat irons. So, Good luck and Stay Sleek!
