Let me set the picture I have VERY thick hair that is VERY curly and coarse, even though it has been relaxed. It can be compared to ethnic hair and my hairdresser mainly does AA hair.
I have a T3 Toumaline Wet/Dry Ceramic that I paid about $200. I would not recommend it if your hair is thick, because the plate is too small. It was a waste of money
My favorite, still goes back to a Revlon Flat Iron that I can buy at the grocery store for about $25. The Iron is actually made by Helen of Troy, and the plate is 2" wide. It's the only thing that can get my hair straight. It's a great deal. I have the first one and LOVE it.

I have a Chi Turbo. I have wavy, coarse, frizzy hair and it makes my hair super straight and shiny. I would recommend buying on Ebay versus paying retail for it...

What's the Turbo? I have a Chi. I swear by it. When I have my hair straight, people don't believe that I have very curly hair. I also use a Chi hairdryer. And use Chi products. And my stylist (cousin) uses Chi hair color on me.

I had no idea a Chi Turbo existed, I use the Chi. If I let my hair dry naturally, it's wavy, but it can be blow dried straight. I spent $150 on my Chi and for someone who straightens their hair every day like me, it's been well worth it.

Hmm. It might not be the official name...we just always called it that in college to distinguish between mine (says turbo on the end, and it's covered in red velvet and has a broader temperature range) and my roommate's (solid black, smaller temperature range, and the plates weren't as wide).
