sedu flat iron?

hey again, im considering buying this, exactly how good is it?

i live in toronto by the way does anyone know any salons or stores that carry this flat iron???

-thanks xoxox

I just purchased the solia.  At of course, folica.com!  I will tell you how it works out when I get it!  And its on sale for 88.00 with free shipping!  I spent 125.00 on my chi a year ago!

Just to let everyone know, I did some research on the sedu flat iron and look what I found:

http ://www.misikko.com/sedu-iron.html

I'm not sure how true all these points are, but it seems pretty clear to me that the sedu flat iron is pretty much a scam. I mean I've heard Jennifer ANiston uses it but has anyone ever seen anything that actually proves she does? This site actually has articles from magazines like Allure that proves she DOESN'T use it. She's probably never even heard of it!  Also, the other stuff about the "as seen in allure" is also true. It disgusts me that a company would be so deceiving like this. I'd never use the sedu and I"ve lost any interest in getting one. I'll stick to my CHI flat iron any day!! Also, sedu is made by folica (as well as the solia) so it's no surprise that every review on folica's website rates the sedu "five stars". Their ratings are pretty biased if you ask me and I would never consider doing business with a company like that.

So... um... did I just make a mistake with my Solia?

I've noticed that the Sedu doesn't seem too special, but I figured the Solia didn't seem too bad. I just got it today but have yet to try it.

Oh yeah, and I read that article in the link and while it is true that I am always taken to folica.com when I looked for the Sedu, the Solia actually has a website. Is it really owned by follica? I personally will try it out to see if it's still good regardless of who owns it.

hey guys, i didnt end up getting the sedu because i HATE ordering thigns online, i have a hard time trusting the internet i live in toronto by the way and it seems like we have access to nothing around here, anywho i bought a really good flat iron called hair art its the 1 3/4 inch and its great on my hair, it makes its very shiny and healthy looking compared to my old over sized ceramic iron some say that it works the equivalent to sedu im not really sure. Just wanted to say that hairart rocks! take care

Hairart is a really good company! They started the T3 Tourmaline brand and eventually T3 became so big they diverged into another company. But great choice - hairart has been around for a long time and they are known for great quality appliances.

Pinksummer -I did find a site that I thought had a great review of flat irons but here's what I don't recommend most importantly:

- Any site that links to another site to purchase. For example, http://www.flatironreviews.com/, when you go to "compare prices" it goes straight to folica.com. This means folica owns the site which means they can edit whatever content and reviews they want = All reviews that are five stars, two thumbs up, etc. All the reviews you can bet are written by folica and are all biased lies. Same with http://www.beauty-product-reviews.com/. AVOID THESE SITES AT ALL COST they are all lies. I'm sorry from all I've read I think folica is really pathetic at this point but I'll keep my opinion to myself.

- I actually found a site which I think does a good review of flat irons: http://makeupalley.com/product/helpfulreviews.asp/r=604906/. The pros and cons is great as well as different flat iron types.

I hope this helps you! :)

I've checked out makeupalley (love it), and have read that review before but I see it got a nice little update...good job!  I just don't like how sometimes i can't find certain straightening iron reviews.

Anyway, my mom wants me to return the Solia and after burning herself with it four times in her first use she considers it a sign. And I have just discovered overstock.com!

check out these little gems...and their nice little prices.


CHI 1:

CHI 2 (is 7/10 smaller than one inch? i've never been good with measurements):

T3:

FHI:
http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?page=proframe&pr od_id=1680600


And they also have FHI. Is that any good? It looks very pretty.  I also found a HairArt elsewhere for a nice price... and the look of reminds me of the Solia that burned my mommy's poor fingers. And while we're on the subject... the T3 catches my eye (the 1" model)... but does tourmaline really make that much of a difference?

Look at Sedu site's (http://www.sedubeauty.com/) notice about Misikko and other sites.  what is going on?

Consumer Beware of the following scams:

Misikko.com (Misikko, Inc, at  P.O. Box 9638 Wilmington DE) practices bait and switch: that person does NOT have Sedu irons!

OnlineRewardCenter.com, SamplePromotionsGroup.com and sedu.onlinerewardcenter.com are all email spamming sites. They use Blatant False Advertising ("free Sedu iron") to lure visitors into their sites to sign up for their junk email.

Ok, from what I know of the situation - Misikko at one point DID carry the sedu flat iron. However, they got ALOT of returns on it and realized the sedu flat iron isn't worth the money/quality/claims they promise so they stopped carrying it and wrote that long caution review because they felt the consumer should know. Sedu/Folica didn't like it so they basically retaliated and said Misikko is trying to "bait and switch" but I'm not sure thats possible because who would buy the sedu from misikko after reading that review? Also, I'm not positive but I don't think Misikko advertises they even DO carry the sedu, and in order to bait and switch don't they have to pretend they carry it?

LOL also isn't misikko a company? I love how they write "that person does NOT have the sedu irons!" LOL!
