At Glamour, we are dedicated to providing in-depth research and testing on the best hair tools available in the market. Our team of experts evaluates a wide range of products such as curling irons, hair dryers, blow-dry brushes, and more to bring you honest and valuable reviews.
We understand the importance of real-world feedback when it comes to hair tools like flat irons. That’s why we sent over a dozen top-rated options to our team members for testing on performance and durability. Our author Brigitt Earley, with over 15 years of experience in product evaluation, along with other industry professionals such as Alanna Martine Kilkeary and Brie Schwartz, tested these tools to provide you with the best recommendations.
Our evaluations focused on qualities such as material, temperature range, ease of use, overall performance, and convenient features like auto-shutoff. We also assessed the long-term durability of each product to ensure they deliver sleek and shiny results that last all day.
Five months later, we checked back with our testers to see how well each straightener held up over time. Did they still stand by their initial picks? Additionally, we tested new and notable flat irons in the market, selecting three standout products as replacements for models that either outdated or didn’t meet our expectations in the long run.
Stay tuned for our updated recommendations to find the perfect hair straightener for your needs.
