I have been in the market for a new flat iron for awhile now! I am pretty picky about my flat irons, so it is rather hard for me to find one that really meets my needs! I was lucky enough to be able to do a review on a fabulous one…The Cortex Solo 450 Titanium Giraffe Flat Iron/Hair Straightener (1″).

About The Flat Iron

Cortex Solo 450 Collection is new to the market and made for professionals in the beauty industry. You probably could have guested this iron heats up to 450 degrees F, the hottest in the market. Adjustable heat and ergonomically designed this flat iron can be used on ultra thick frizzy hair or ultra thin hair. The results are amazing!

The Flat Iron is equipped with Nano Titanium Technology. The Titanium helps preserve more moisture. It also helps get rid of the frizz, as well as creating smooth and shiny hair. Another wonderful thing about it is that is causes less damage to your hair, compared to other straighteners.

It also has the Negative Ion Technology. This is really good for the health and appearance of the hair.

Far Infrared Heat: This helps dry the hair from the inside out, which makes sure that more moisture remains in the hair shaft and there is less damage to the hair.

KQC Thermal Shine Spray
In addition to receiving the wonderful flat iron, I also received the KQC Thermal Shine Spray.
The Shine spray is ion enriched polishing complex forumlated for superior heat protection and ultra gloss hair shine. This spray is designed for ALL hair types. It should be used with flat iron, curling irons, or hair dryers.

These little corn kernels do a great job of holding in hot and cold. When wrapped in a cotton soft plush [Read more…]
