Remington S8510DS Flat Iron, Frizz Therapy, 1 Inch

I've used several different flat irons over the years and this is my favorite one of them all.

The iron gets good and hot with precise temperature controls. I don't understand the technology of the ceramic plates being infused with moisturizers, but I do know I like what it does to my hair. This iron makes my hair silky, shiny, and perfectly straight.

There is really no comparing this Remington iron to the Conair and other brands they sell at drugstores and discount stores. This is in a MUCH higher class. I've used some of those cheap ones and they destroy my hair.

I've owned three Remington irons over the years, liked them all and if this one ever dies, I'll buy another one just like it.

This iron is very similar to the Remington Shine Therapy iron except this one is focused on reducing frizz. Of the two irons, I like the shine therapy one better. This one left my hair a bit dull looking.

Here is a recap of the features of both irons. Yes, some of this was pulled from my Shine Therapy review because, for the most part, these are identical flat irons except for the plates.

On the outside, this is a visually appealing iron. Pastel in color. Very pretty.

I had minor product on my hair. Something that I added to protect the ends before blowing it dry, and that was about it.

The iron does heat up quickly. I didn't time it to see if it took 30 seconds but I walked out of the room for a moment and it was ready when I returned.

The locking switch is a bit awkward at first. It's placed on the bottom. It took a few times to get used to it. I can attest that it will be difficult for a child to unlock it or for it to snap open and burn anything in the immediate area. It does serve its purpose.

The power button is on the side of the base. This is extremely helpful as I am able to avoid accidentally turning the iron off during use.

I was able to straighten my hair with a single pass!! I am very impressed. I started out at the lowest temperature setting but did bump it up a bit. From there...one pass and I was done.

The results were smooth and free of frizz.

I get many compliments on my hair when I use this iron. Day 2 hair was wonderful as well and did not look oily.

I also asked my friend to try this iron out on her short hair. Just to switch things up a bit and see how she liked it. She's never used a flat iron before. Here are her comments:

This a great flat iron! It heats up quick and easy to use. After blowing my hair dry I was able to style my short-ish hair with a sweeping bang and that looked and felt great. The iron also minimized my frizzy ends creating a smooth, healthy and flawless style it looks like a professional styles my hair, and it lasts all day. I have had many compliments on my new look and the only thing I changed was the flat iron. I would highly recommend this purchase.

I have very long (all the way down my back) and thin, straight hair. I have had Chi brand straightners and the cheapie Revlon brands too. Since my hair is already very straight, I have been fine with either one. This one, however, has worked extremely well compared to any of the other brands I have used. My long hair doesn't snag on the plates and it makes my hair nice and shiny, especially when I use it with a heat styling protector spray. This straightner does the flat iron curls really nicely as well... Just as well as a Chi does them in my opinion. I love the digital display and it shows that the flat iron is heating up by flashing until it is at the desired temperature. Ofcourse, I think the big test for any straightner is how long it will last...since I've only been using this one for a few weeks, I haven't had it long enough to know what it's stamina is, but I will let you know!

I always use an iron of somesort on my hair (just prefer my hair straight in contrast to the natural wave that I have). I previously had used the Remington Shine Therapy model so I thought I would compare the Frizz Therapy to it. I actually prefer the S8510DS Frizz therapy iron over the Shine therapy. I find my hair to be sleek and looks like it was keratin conditioned every time I use it. I love the way my hair shines. If I had any complaint at all it would be in the 1" size. I have previously used 1.5 and 2 inch irons and I feel they are easier to use for me. But all in all, the Remington Frizz Therapy is a great product and I highly recommend it.

I loved how my hair looked after I used this straightener, but the smell it left behind was unbearable. It also curled my hair perfectly and the curls lasted all day, but so did the stink! My hair smelled for a week or so after I used this Remington straightener. Eventually I left my conditioner on my hair for an hour before rinsing it which is what got rid of most of the smell. The first time I washed my hair after using this flat iron it smelled like skunk all night. My husband asked me the next morning "did you smell that skunk last night?". It wasn't a skunk, it was my hair! I used it a couple more times before I decided that the awful smell wasn't worth it.

This product has so many five and four star reviews, that I'm thinking maybe only certain types of hair have a reaction to the ceramic plates. I returned it with a heavy heart because it was the first hair straightener that actually left my hair looking exactly the way I wanted it. Now I am testing the Conair CS31TP Infiniti Instant Heat Pure Ceramic 1 Inch Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron. It's not as good as the Remington, but at least it doesn't make my hair stink!
