ISA Hair Straightener Review

When you were younger, you probably had very few options when it came to choosing a hair straightener. They were big, bulky and while they did straighten your hair, it probably took 30 minutes and an accidental scalp burn to get the job done. With prices ranging from $20 - $400+, it can sometimes be overwhelming choosing.

The ISA Professional Digital Titanium Flat Iron Hair Straightener is a mid-priced hair straightener that delivers salon quality.

This hair straightener features an LCD display that allows you to digitally adjust the temperature from 265F to 450F. It'll show you the temperature that it's currently at, and you can see it climb to your desired heat. No more trying to guess when it's ready to use! Another reason why this feature is awesome? No more accidentally turning up (or down) the heat dial (oops!)

The plates are 1 inch wide and 4.5 inches long. That means you can grab a larger (not thicker) section of hair to get the job done quicker. Most plates tend to be about 3.5 - 4 inches.

The plates are actually mirror titanium. Not knowing what in the world that meant, a consultation with the fiancé ensued (he's a machinist and therefore very knowledgeable when in comes to metals). Essentially it's regular titanium, but polished to a mirror finish. It's actually better for your hair, leaving it smoother and shinier. Even though regular titanium is smooth, it has some impurities that transfers to your hair. Think of mirror titanium as plain smooth paper, and regular titanium as sandpaper. You get the picture.

The ISA Professional Digital Titanium Flat Iron Hair Straightener, like most flat irons today, are slightly curved, making it easy to curl your hair. Like most, it also has a long 360 degree cord, making sure that you don't somehow get tangled up.

The one feature I'm very excited about, is the auto-shut off after 1 hour. Nothing is worse than leaving for work and wondering if you've turned off your flat iron or if you'll come home to a burned spot on your counter.

Overall, the ISA Professional Digital Titanium Flat Iron Hair Straightener is great for my thick, wavy and frizzy hair. It only takes me 15 minutes to get it straight, and it looks healthy and shiny. While curling my hair is not my strong point, this flat iron made it easy and it looked great afterwards!

Currently priced at $129 (down from $299 for a few months now), you can purchase the ISA Professional Digital Titanium Flat Iron Hair Straightener on their website.
