Spend the money, it is worth it and you will be pleased that you did. I messed around with cheap straighteners for years and finally caved and bought a good one. Not only do they work faster, but I have fewer split ends and my hair looks shiner. Just be sure to use a good heat protector. I've got the pink Solia. I bought mine from here: Best Flat Irons, Best Hair Straightener.
Get some GHDs. I have curly hair and they straighten it in less than 10 mins! They make your hair v shiny too! They are definitely worth the $180 dollars (approx), mine have lasted for years. If you're going to straighten your hair often invest in a good pair, means you'll have lots of time in the long run!
I've purchase a lot of flat irons over the years looking for the best one at a reasonable price. I, like you, didn't want to spend big bucks on a hair straightener because I just didn't think it would be worth the money. Then one day I was reading CD and everyone was giving the Chi rave reviews - which got my attention. I had just had a major birthday and the DH and kids just blew it, so I decided to buy myself a present. I broke down and spent one hundred dollars on a Chi. I have to tell you I use it every day and it is definitely worth the money. There is no comparison between it and my cheaper ceramic flat irons.
After using the Chi for a week my DH commented that my hair had really looked good lately and he never notices anything! My dear daughter also noticed a change and asked what was up and I told her. She knew the cost of the Chi and was shocked that I had bought one, but admitted it was worth it. I never thought I'd say this, but the Chi is definitely worth the money. I can straighten my long, curly hair in less than ten minutes initially and simply touch it up, less than two minutes, daily and have it look great. Best wishes!
I have REALLY curly hair and the process of drying my hair and then straightening it with a straightener is a royal pain and takes WAY too long... I have a straightener that dries as it straightens- I think it was Wet to Dry or Wet to Set... something like that... got it at Target for about $25 and I highly suggest picking one up... It has cut my straightening time from 1 and a half hours to 40 minutes... just towel dry, brush through with a comb and product... then straighten sections about 1-2 inches at a time... love it.- Remington Wet 2 Straight
