Misikko ~ HANA Professional Flat Iron 1" {giveaway}

It has been a love-hate relationship my entire life. Having thick, curly hair is seen by many as a blessing, but if you live with it day in and day out, the constant fight with your hair can become tiring. One thing I have learned over the years is when you are working with hair such as mine, you must arm yourself with the proper styling tools.

Over time I have purchased numerous hair dryers, curling irons and flat irons. But, never could I replicate the same results at home, as I was able to get at the salon. Many times my hair stylist has asked me if I am straightening my hair at home, even though I have owned flat irons, I just wasn't happy with the job they did. I really tried, but it just wasn't working for me.

Two weeks ago I was thrown a life line when a cute little HANA Professional Flat Iron arrived at my door. Right away I recognized it as being the same one my stylist used at her shop (and she is able to get beautiful results). My optimism soared!

First impressions are everything. Just look at the impressive presentation and the care that was taken when packaging my flat iron. From the moment I opened my package I knew Misikko specialized in professionalism.

Misikko ~ emerged from a desire they share with many of us...to easily shop and compare the best professional styling tools and beauty products on the market. As beauty aficionados and savvy consumers, our goal is to help us learn about the tools of the trade so that we can find the right salon tools and products at the right prices!

Contained inside that beautiful package was a Pink HANA 1" Professional Flat Iron.

Advanced Fusion Molding delivers glass-smooth ceramic-tourmaline plates while accelerated negative ion output repairs hair follicles, sealing in natural oils for a conditioned, sleek, salon shine that lasts all day. With professional features like damp-to-dry styling, floating plates that self adjust to different textures and adjustable temperature, the Hana Professional hair straightener is engineered to deliver luxury at down to earth price.

Of course my twelve year old daughter grabbed at it as soon as she saw the Pink Flat Iron, and we got right to work on her hair. When you turn it on the indicator light remains steady until the flat iron is heated to your desired temperature and then it blinks. This is one flat iron that heats up quickly...there is no time wasted waiting for your iron to get hot.

Emily's hair is thick with a bit of flippy curls at the ends. The first thing we noticed is the ease the flat iron runs through hair. We divided her hair into sections and quickly had her hair looking sleek. The 1" plates auto-adjust to any hair texture, and the best thing is the versatility of this straightener - it can curl, flip or straighten! The cord is plenty long and it is energy efficient at 38 watts.

The Hana Flat Iron arrived with a heat-resistant pad, which is awesome for Emily to keep on her dresser. I love the travel pouch, it safely keeps the flat iron safe when thrown into luggage, or for day to day storage. Included was a bottle of Hana Shine Shield Thermal Protectant, it is a leave in conditioner that gives your hair fabulous shine.

A few minutes later: Sleek, Sophisticated, Shiny, Smooth, Silky!
