OMG !! This is the absolute BEST product I have EVER purchased!! I was on the fence about whether to get this one or the FHI.. after researching them both.. I made my decision by which one was cheaper..and Im glad I did. I am African American and have been natural for 3 years. I normally wear my hair curly or in a fro. Being from Houston tx makes it nearly impossible to keep it straight with all the humidity but this iron did the trick. I can get the salon look without the salon price.. It normally takes 3 hours to wash condition blow dry and flat iron my hair.. when I used my CHi.. but with this Croc..it Literally took me an hour... WOW.. and I have a head full of hair !!!! NO JOKE !! I wish I could show you guys pics.. its like magic! And my hair is silky and smooth..no frizz at all.. and I can finally sit outside in humidity without worrying about my hair getting puffed up ! This thing gets REALLY hot.. so I STRONGLY recommend using a good heat protectant. I have been using .. Beyond the heat flat iron spray ( i think thats the official name).. but anyway..they have it at sally beauty supply and its in orange spray bottle.. AWESOME.. dont use too much though.. two sprays per section or youll be looking greasy !!! I hope this review helps.. I read reviews all the time before buying.. and this product gets 5 STARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This product only lasted 1 year and then it malfunctioned, not heating above 212 degrees. This was the 2nd one that we bought that broke. I would not recommend this product.
I bought this iron b/c they had it at my hair salon so I trusted it would be a reliable product. I loved it up until it died on me in July after getting it as a Christmas gift the previous year. I even called the manufacturer and they said b/c I hadn't purchased it directly and on O.co, that the 1-year warranty was invalid.The version I purchased here had the Infra-red too, but I don't see that listed anymore here, so maybe they discontinued it because of the poor quality.
I love this flat iron so much that I'm a return buyer. My friend/hair stylist had bought this flat iron for me 3 years ago, and it worked like a DREAM every time! Sadly, my boyfriend got it wet while it was plugged in and it shorted out (so be careful for that!!); I was DEVASTATED!!! I had no idea where to buy it again because my friend had purchased it from a "professionals only" beauty store. I have owned all kinds of high-quality flat irons--- Paul Mitchell, CHI, HerStyler, InfraShine---- none of them EVER worked as well as the Croc!! I went to Ulta in search of a new one and they had never even heard of Croc!! I bought a super expensive ($150!!) CHI Ultra, brought it home and it worked like crap!!! I was so upset! I returned it the next day and asked my stylist friend to take me to the beauty store with her to get a new one. I walked right into disappointment, nothing but Paul Mitchell, CHI, HerStyler, and InfraShine :( I went home thinking I would have to settle for less, but I thought I'd give the good ol' O a try before I completely gave up... not only did the O have my same croc that had just broken, but an entire array of different Croc straightening products!!!! I was completely overjoyed, and ordered right away. And the price was unbeatable too!! You will NEVER find a better flat -iron then the Croc Pro!! Especially for the price. I would (and probably will) buy this product over, and over, and over again!!! SOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!! THANK YOU OVERSTOCK!!! :)
I was first introduced to this flat iron while receiving a professional Keratin hair treatment. I was thoroughly impressed with the accuracy in which you were able to control the heat setting (you can actually set the temperature to a specific degree...up to 450 degrees). I remember inquiring as to what flat iron he was using on my hair.. The salon owner told me that it was a "Croc" - the best flat iron on the market.. And it is. My hair is fragile (color treated) and I simply get the best results from this Croc. I love it, and will never use any other flat iron, as no other can compare to this one. I mean it, it's awesome!!!
I bought this and when i got it, right away it wasn't working properly, it would turn on and then instantly go off, so it was defective right off the bat. Then when I got the replacement in, it had black plates, not the silver the first one had.... the second one is GREAT. We'll see how long it lasts.....I love the way it works so far. I'm giving it 3 stars because between the two of them one was a no star, and the replacement is a 5 star.I also bought the warranty through overstock becasuse of the bad reviews about longevity i saw, in addition to the fact i was originally SENT a faulty one.
I've been using an inexpensive ceramic straightener (about $40) for years because my old hairstylist told me that as long as the iron gets to about 340 degrees, they are all the same. For years I didn't know any better and couldn't bring myself to spend the money on a quality product. I had no idea what I was missing. This flat iron is amazing. It heats up extremely fast, whereas my old one was very slow. The plates on the croc are super smooth and just glide over my hair, while my old one sometimes caught and left kinks in my hair. Even the placement of the on/off and temperature controls is better, because they are at the base of the iron so your thumb doesn't push the buttons when you're using it. The swivel cord also makes it easier to maneuver. I have coarse curly hair that I straighten daily, and incredibly, the croc actually makes my hair look shinier and healthier than the old one. I am amazed at the difference in quality and I'm never going back. All around great product.
This iron heats up SUPER fast & you can actually see the temperature gauge rise within a couple of seconds. It's smooth plates work great on hair & the cord is long enough to use at any location in your dressing area. It's wonderful & stands up to the "croc" name
This iron heats up quickly. Leaves hair shiny and smooth. Love it!
I bought this exact same iron on *** 6 months ago. The straightener stopped working after 6 months (which is what many other people say about the straightener too). It's not *** fault and they actually were very nice and gave me a refund even though it was way past the refund date. However, overstock offers an additional warranty for 2 years for $12 extra dollars which is so worth it since the product has been known to stop working...and they will replace it.
