hey I bought the same iron last year for christmas. I don't think it works as well as it used to, but I don't know if it has to do with the iron or my hair. I have to iron the same section a few times now and I didn't have to do that before.
There's a big difference in price from the GHD to the Solia -- the GHD is like $200+ and the Solia is on sale at folica for only $89.98....... The other brand I was considering is the Sedu ?
I've heard bad things about the CHI so I def won't get that one...
