Flat Iron Experts - Karmin Pro Flat Iron Review


Choosing a flat iron is not always easy, there are a ton of things to consider plus lots and lots of choices; it can sometimes become overwhelming.  Which is why it is great to have a company like Flat Iron Experts around.  Flat Iron Experts is an online beauty shop that offers free beauty tips and advice on choosing the perfect hair styling tool fit for any hair type.

Flat Iron Experts sent me the new Karmin G3 Salon Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Styling Iron for review.  I absolutely love this hair iron!!

First off, you can tell a lot about a product by the way it is packaged and presented.  Once I removed the packing popcorn and saw the flat iron box, I knew this was a winner.  The Iron came packaged in a neat little box, zipped in a storage bag (perfect for traveling).  It also came with a cooling mat (that attaches right to the storage bag), so you have a place to set your iron while it cools. 

Not only is this iron quick to heat up, but it is quick to straighten too.  I cut my ironing time in half by using this particular iron instead of my chincy old one.   Trying to get ready with a toddler, I can appreciate the fact that this iron has an auto sleep mode; turning the iron off after an hour.  I do not necessarily need this feature but you never know.  

Not sure how to curl your hair with an iron?  That’s ok because the Karmin Pro comes with instructions on how to create volume and body, flip your hair, create soft curls, and just straighten.  Styling your hair is virtually effortless and results will surprise you.

PROS:
Flash quick heating
Tangle free swivel cord
Temperature setting for any hair type
Made with 100% pure Tourmaline scratch resistant ceramic plates
Removes static using negative ions and infrared heat
Seals your natural oils leaving your hair looking and feeling healthier
Auto sleep mode
Allows you to straighten, curl, & flip
Comes with a cooling mat and a convenient storage bag.

CONS:
Can only use with dry hair.
Tourmaline Ceramic Technology: Karmin Tourmaline Ceramic Hair Straightener distributes heat across the entire surface evenly, retains heat more efficiently, and eliminates damaging hot spots. Ceramic emits a natural source of negative ions and far infrared heat that helps your hair:
1. Preserve more moisture within the hair shaft                                                                                                                2. Eliminates frizz and close the cuticle to create smooth and shiny hair                                                                          3. Causes less damage to the hair cuticle during styling                                                 
                                                                                                                                          Negative Ion Technology:
Negative ions are atoms that can stop the growth of bacteria, fungi, etc., resulting in healthier hair and scalp. Negative ion energy is powerful enough to break apart clusters of water molecules. The smaller water molecules penetrate into the hair shaft by slipping between the cuticles, adding plumpness/volume to hair. The bombardment of negative ions also closes the hair cuticle, which is very good for the health & appearance of hair.                                                                                                                                                       Far Infrared Heat : Far Infrared (FIR) rays are electro-magnetic waves of energy, totally invisible to the naked eye, capable of penetrating deep into the human body, including the hair shaft. It therefore dries the hair from the inside out. The result is that more moisture remains in the hair shaft and there is less damage to the hair.


I was also sent KQC ThermalShine spray.  I love this because it leaves my hair silky smooth, glossy, and protects it from the damaging heat of the iron.  I love that it is lightweight and that does not leave a greasy residue.  It also prevents my hair from becoming super frizzy.  You can use this particular spray on wet or dry hair and follow up with a blow dryer or a flat iron.
Would I recommend Flat Iron Experts and their products?  Absolutely!
