What is the best flat iron(for hair)?

I have naturally curly hair, what is a flat iron that really works well but isant 200+ $$??What is the best flat iron(for hair)?
As a stylist, I have used a lot of flat irons, including Sedu, HAI, Infrashine, Chi, Paul Mitchell, Solia, Big Sexy, Andis, Babyliss GHD, T3, Kenta etc.



In terms of performance:



The best ones are: Sedu, Kenta, Solia, Infrashine, GHD. These are top of the line professional brands



Above average: CHI, HAI, Paul Mitchell,



Average: T3, Big Sexy, Andis, Babyliss



Worst: Conair, Vidal Sassoon, Revlon, Bed Head etc. These are cheap consumer brands that you will find in drugstore. If you care about your hair, do NOT buy them.

I don't recommend CHI if you're not going to use a heat protector or if you don't have really thick hair. Sedu and Solia are one of the highest ranks. Sedu goes up to about 400 degrees, but Solia goes up to 450 degrees. Neither are damaging. I got my Solia for around $80, and Sedu is about $100 and maybe a little more
chi
The Chi. It's only about $100-150 and it's TOTALLY worth it.
OMG!!! i have the perfect flat iron for u!!!!!! i have the same type of hair as u and got a CORIOLISS flat iron for $100!!!!! Get a corioliss it works so so so so so so so well!!!!
you need a chi flat iron. its ceramic plates. also the heat is important. sometimes people use flat irons that the temp. is not high enough for curly hair...chi irons go to about 450 degrees. the chi is perfect. im a hairstylist and its the best one i have ever used on my curly haired clients!!
