Has anyone used the ceramic flat Irons or curling irons? I was thinking of buying one but I just wanted to know if anyone has used one before.

yes, i own a hai stik and i absolutely love it. the last time i had my hair cut my stylist told me that my hair had never looked better..it was shiney and actually looked healthy, not damaged

its worth the investment, i'd look on ebay..mine retails for about $120 and i got it for $75(with shipping) and it was worth every penny, but i've heard that the lower end ones like revlon aren't bad either..but if its something that you are going to be using every day then i would splurge and buy a higher end one.

this topic has been discussed before here:

I have one,
I love it,
I can't live without it,
The ceramic helps your hair shaft to close while the heat penetrates keeping moisture in.
Buy one.
Buy one.
Buy one.

I use my friends because they are a bit pricey.

I love it and it work really really well.

Haven't used any of the "cheaper" ones so I have no comparison.

Why are these better than normal hot irons??

they are made out of ceramic, not metal so the heat spreads more evenly avoiding "hot spots" and help to prevent frying your hair.

I love my ceramic flat iron, it is great. I don't know what brand it is, but I bought it at wallmart (hey I live in Douglasville, GA) for about $20 or less. It even has a steamer on it!

I got mine at Sallys Beauty Supply for about $40 and it works great.
