Who Is This Flat Iron for? 

A person with any hair type can use this flat iron, as it is effective in distributing heat across its wide surface area.

The product has plates in three widths, proving useful in covering more hair in one go.

The product is also a hit with thicker hair-types, and it can straighten thick locks effectively and quickly. 

Overall, this flat iron doesn’t discriminate! From coiled to curly to thick to long hair, the BaByliss PRO flat iron has you covered in its efficiency and adaptability. 

Specifications 

Dimensions: With dimensions of 12 x 1.5 x 3 inches, the BaBylissPRO optimizes size for the best straightening. It comes with three plate sizes: 1″, 1.5″, and 2″. The different sized plates mean you can cover larger surface areas or use the smaller plates to straighten and curl at the same time. The length of the plates also means you can straighten more hair, faster. 

Material: The ceramic heater allows instant heating and higher temperatures with temps up to 450 degrees F! Its recovery is also quick and effective. 

Weight: At one pound, this product isn’t the lightest, but it is a standard weight for this type of flat iron.

What Makes This Flat Iron Special? 

The BaByliss PRO straightener stands apart from the competition with its effective technology. Not only is it easy to use, with a quick heat-up time, but also it provides lasting and quick straightening. It’s quite powerful and can work on a range of hair types, without snagging or burning. The result is smooth, healthy hair without any breakages or damage. 

The flat iron also makes hair straighter for longer—its ceramic plates ensure that hair remains straight with no need for ‘top ups’ during the day. 

However, do be mindful that there’s no auto-off button, posing a slight safety issue. Please be aware that you will need to shut off the flat iron yourself.
