Flat Iron Experts Review and Giveaway

Flat Iron Experts is best known for their professional styling tools, hair care products, and flat iron reviews. I recently had the opportunity to review one of their top selling flat irons. When Flatironexperts.com approached me for a second review, I couldn’t resist.

For my review, I was sent the 2” Hot Tools Professional Spring Curling Iron. The first styling tool I ever owned was a Hot Tools flat iron. I used that flat iron for over 5 years. I couldn’t believe how long it lasted me. I was so impressed with the amazing quality and durability of my straightener and was anxious to find out if their curling iron would meet the same expectations.

Professional Features

• Easy to Hold Soft Grip Textured Handle
• 2 Replacement Springs
• Multi-Heat Dial Control
• Convenient On/Off Switch
• Temperature Reaches 428° F
• Jumbo 2” 24k Gold-Plated Barrel
• Powerful Spring Clamp w/Safety Stand
• 8ft Heavy Duty Swivel Cord
• Maintains Constant, Consistent Heat From 10 Variable Heat Settings (low to extra hot) With 85 Watts of Power.

The 2” Hot Tools Professional Spring Curling Iron is such a great curling iron. My hair is long,  thick, and coarse. This curling iron is the only iron that worked on my hair by providing a long lasting curl.  The handle is long enough to accommodate larder hands and it’s ergonomic design makes it easy to hold for long periods of time.

Since my hair is so long, I am often turning and twisting around to see my hair from the back. The cord’s generous length allows me to style my hair from a comfortable position rather than leaning into the mirror. The swivel cord feature is also a plus since it prevents kinks and tangles.

This curling iron works best for adding volume and/or loose curls. Hot Tools has been around for ages because their products work! I love this curling iron. It’s easy to use, and because it heats up in just seconds, it saves so much time when styling my hair. It adds much desired body and volume and makes my hair look bouncy and moveable. The one suggestion I would make to Hot Tools is to add an automatic shut off option. I normally leave my curling iron and flat iron on to make last minute touchups and I often forget to turn them off. Other then that, this is an excellent curling iron and I would definitely recommend it.

Flat Iron Experts - H & R Flat Iron Review

Flat Iron Experts is more then just on online beauty store. In addition to selling the best flat irons, professional styling tools, professional haircare products, cosmetics and the best hair straighteners, they also specialize in professional reviews, free product recommendations and education on today's most popular flat irons.

Finding the best flat iron for your hair isn't always an easy task. Many flat irons claim to have "Ceramic" or "Tourmaline" plates, while they are actually made with paint-coated aluminum plates. I had this problem with the first flat iron I ever owned and the coating came off after only a few uses. Flat Iron Experts are eager to help assist you  in finding the best hair straightener for you.

The H&R Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron is one of the most popular flat irons sold in the beauty industry today. It is equipped with the latest tourmaline and ceramic technology that will help you straighten, curl or flip your hair with ease. The tourmaline ceramic plates on this straightener distribute heat across the entire surface evenly, eliminating damaging hot spots. This affordable flat iron eliminates frizz and creates a lasting, smooth and shiny finish.

My H&R flat iron did everything I hoped it would! I have long, thick, coarse, and dry hair. Normally, it takes me hours to straighten all of my hair.The H&R flat iron straightened my hair in just 30 minutes. It is very lightweight and heated up in just a matter of seconds. Flat irons made without a swivel cord tend to tangle easily, so I appreciated the tangle-free swivel cord on this flat iron. The suspended plate technology prevents hair snagging, which is another great feature to have. To put this technology to the test, I purposely tried to make the ceramic plates snag my hair. I am telling you, it is impossible! I couldn't believe how great my hair looked! When I finished straightening my hair, every strand was visibly straight, from root to tip. Not only was my hair straight, it felt incredibly silky smooth. My hair even looked and felt healthier and less damaged.

H&R Flat Iron Features:

• 1" (90x24 mm) tourmaline ceramic plates
• Adjustable temperature ( 140 - 410° F)
• Super fast ceramic heating elements ensures a rapid heat up to maximum temperature in seconds
• Flashing indicator instruct you it is ready for use
• Professional tourmaline plates produce maximum amount of negative ions to create amazing shiny and silky finish
• Professional 3 meter 360° swivel cord -never tangles
• Infrared rays to heat more gently
• Slim and ergonomic design for easy use
• On/Off button
• AC 110V 60Hz for use in USA/Canada
• One-year limited warranty

My hair is normally curly/ wavy, dry, frizzy and well...see for yourself:

After just one use with Flat Iron Expert's H&R Flat Iron:

I am so impressed with the amazing results. My hair feels softer, appears shiny and not so dry/ damaged and is much more manageable. If you are interested in finding a good quality straightener but aren't sure exactly where to look, you might be interested in checking out Flat Iron Expert's Flat Iron Buying Guide - Beginner's Guide 101 (scroll down to mid-bottom of the page). If you straighten your hair regularly or want a flat iron that will last you for years to come, I definitely recommend investing in a high quality flat iron from Flat Iron Experts.
