I recently was asked by Misikko to follow in so many other bloggers’ footsteps and review the Hana Pro 1″ flat iron which has been seen in Marie Claire and Redbook magazines. I was excited to have the opportunity since I’d heard so many great things about how they’re “the best hair straighteners,” and I’m excited to give you my standpoint on how well it did.
First off- I have hair like this:
Froin’ it out |
Sexy, right?! Yeah- um, no. My hair is SUPER curly. This picture is actually my hair after air drying and being brushed out so I could start to flat iron it. This isn’t the first time I’ve posted a picture of my crazy hair and probably won’t be the last, so get used to it haha.
Ok so where were we? Oh yes..
All the fun stuff! |
So I got this huge box with all this cool stuff from Misikko. Not only was my flat iron in there, but I got a nice case for it, a silicone mat for when my iron is hot, some E.L.F. products, and a few other fun randoms! Needless to say, they super spoiled me. Oh- and that picture was taken courtesy of my hubby. Yeah, I don’t think I’m going to let him take pictures for the blog again haha.
I tried out my flat iron and decided it was time to ditch the one I’d been using for 5 years. I love my flat iron, but it was starting to make my hair smell funny from all the chemicals it’s touched over the years. Also, for the record, my old flat iron took 45 minutes to do my hair.
This is how my hair turned out after using my new flat iron from Hana:
nice and sleek |
Huge difference, right?!
So here’s what I love about my new flat iron- the plates heat up to 450 degrees. With my hair and this Texas heat- a hot flat iron is ESSENTIAL. It’s also made with ceramic and tourmaline plates that float and self-adjust to my hair. My old flat iron used to pull out a couple strands because they would get caught on the plates. This time? Not one. Single. Hair. It was great. I also loved that the flat iron has a swivel thing on the cord. My old flat iron didn’t have this and it’d always get caught on something in the bathroom. Not this time! By the end of all my straightening/reviewing, the Hana Pro flat iron only took 30 minutes!
Oh and the best part of it all? It actually rained on Saturday when I straightened my hair. Normally I’d freak out, but I really wanted to “test” the flat iron. My hair got drizzled on and still looked great the next day when I woke up for church.
If you’re looking for one amazing flat iron, check them out here. It’s worth every penny!
Thanks so much to Misikko and Hana for sending me such a great product to review! I hope to review another product soon!

Oh that is so awesome! I have crazy curly hair myself and i’m always looking for a good product that WORKS. So how do you get to do these reviews?
I so want to try one of these! Rain/humidity always turn my hair into a big poofball!
You so sexyface, girrrrrl!
PS You forgot to talk about the angel that comes in the box. haha. I about died when she looked into my soul.
Your hair looks great!!
I am so curious about this flat iron… everyone seems to love it, but it seems like everyone’s comparing it to an old, sub-par straightener. I bought a pro quality straightener (an Ozon) a couple years ago that heats up to 450 and is WORLDS better than the CHI I had before, and I’m so curious how the Hana Pro would measure up to mine. I’d love to do a review on my blog and see!
PS – I have the crazy hair too. It looks JUST LIKE THAT when I blow dry it!
my hair is super curly too and bigger than yours when i brush it out. loved the review!
So good to know, girl! They contacted me too, so now I am super excited to test it out! Thanks for the heads up! Xoxo
Looks like an awesome straightener, I’ll have to check it out!
my SIL has the hana straightner and loves it. 🙂

Hi there! I understand this is sort of off-topic however I needed to ask.
Does building a well-established blog such as yours require a lot of work?
I am brand new to operating a blog but I do write in my diary daily.
I’d like to start a blog so I will be able to share my own experience and views online. Please let me know if you have any kind of recommendations or tips for brand new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!

Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and
gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear
and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it
pinched her ear. She never wants to go back!
LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to
tell someone!
