Turbo Ion's The Croc Flat Iron product review.
Almost every woman I know uses flat irons to get their hair perfectly straight, and me being a curly-headed girl my entire life, I have never known what truly flat and straight hair on me would look like.
Now I know.
I was fortunate enough to receive one of these flat irons to review, and I absolutely love it!
First let me tell you a little bit about Turbo Ion's The Croc Flat Iron.
It's a 1.5 inch ionic ceramic plate flat iron, with an 8 foot super sturdy cord that swivels.
The cord does not get tangled, it doesn't get all kinked up when you put it away.
It came in this itty bitty box, and the cord just fell loose and tangle free, when I removed it from the package.
It adjusts in temperature all the way up to 420 degrees.
Even at that high temp, the handle stays cool to the touch, and it heats up quickly, within 10 seconds, it was up to 420, and ready to go.
It has the industry's most advanced Nano-fine ceramic heating element, and it uses infrared heat and ion ventilating holes.
A few women I know told me that because of how long and thick my hair was, that there was no way a 1.5 inch plate would be able to handle my hair, and it would take a really long time.
Not so with this flat iron at all.
Start to finish, it only took me 30 minutes.
This is my hair today after taking a shower and letting it dry naturally for close to 5 hours.
The only thing I put in it was Infusium, like I always do, to attempt to keep it frizz free.
My hair is really thick and naturally curly.
It's very long, down to the middle of my back.

Then I started to use the flat iron, and you can see the immediate results.
It's flat, straight, and frizz free!

This is my hair just 30 minutes later, completely flat, completely straight, frizz free, and even longer than it normally is!

I have never owned a flat iron before, and never had my hair straightened by friends, or at a salon.
I was concerned that because of how thick my hair was, and how long it was, that using a flat iron was going to be difficult to use and take a long time.
The Turbo Ion's The Croc Flat Iron was really easy to use, fast, and did an amazing job.
When my hair is curly and dry, running a brush through it wouldn't make it look better, it would cause it to 'poof', and look like a lions mane.
For the first time ever, I can run a brush through my dry hair, and it does not get tangled up, it doesn't frizz out, the brush just glides through effortlessly, and my hair looks amazing.
Not only does the Turbo Ion's The Croc Flat Iron make my hair look incredible, it feels incredible.
It is silky smooth to the touch, it has shine, and does not feel dried out at all.
I am so impressed with the Turbo Ion's The Croc Flat Iron!
This is probably the best my hair has ever looked and felt in my entire life.
This product gets horns high for being an absolutely rockin' product!

I apologize for the smudges on the mirror, I didn't even see them until I uploaded the pictures to my computer.

Women with straight hair get perms; women with curly hair want flat-irons. Isn't anyone ever happy with how they look naturally? :(
Posted by: Craig | March 9, 2008 5:43 PM
The majority of women do not get perms anymore.
Curly hair hasn't "been in style" for quite a few years now.
I've had curly hair since the day I was born, 38 years.
Will I be using this all the time?
No, I like my curly hair most of the time.
I am happy with how I look naturally, but it is nice to have an option to change from my naturally curly, naturally frizzy look, once in awhile.
What's the reason for the downer on this subject?

Wow, your hair is REALLY long! :)

That looks AMAZING! I need to try to find one of those. I have one, but it isn't very comfortable and doesn't work very well.

WOW that's incredible!! Seriously...
And the Nano-Ceramic technology is some of the most awesome stuff I've tried ~~ I've just fallen in love with the Bed Head line of Nano-Ceramic, over-priced, fibre-optic drenched toys and, wow.
Also ~ You have beautiful hair. ^.^
