Each year QVC hosts it Customer Choice Awards, pretty awesome, right? When a product wins an award, driven by us, the customers I feel like it needs to be shouted from the rooftops. The CHI Smart Volumizing Hair Styling Iron’s win as “Best Hair Tool” for the 2014 QVC Customer Choice Awards. As their top rated product, the CHI Smart Volumizing Iron became an award winner after an impressive 68,429 votes were cast. I’ve been using this iron exclusively for a few weeks and I will never go back. I am obsessed.

The lowdown on this baby? It’s available in 6 colors and they’re super on trend and fun. You’re getting even heating and superior glide(no hair left behind) with titanium plates with the hair-smoothing benefits of ceramic heating technology. Admittedly, I have not one clue what any of that really means, what I do know is how freaking easy this is to use. With my previous iron, my fine hair had a tendency to get stuck and tangled in the actual plates on the iron and that does not happen here. It glides through my hair and heats up so quickly that it’s cutting down majorly on my getting ready time.

I don’t know if this is a concern for anyone, but it was for me because I’m strange, so I figured I would mention it; it’s easy to hold, the actual texture of the outside of it is super smooth so I feel like I can maneuver it through my hair quite nicely. It’s got curved edges which opens you up to use it for so many different styles: straighten and smooth, create curls, waves, and flips, or add beautiful volume.

A digital control allows you to set the correct temperature for your hair type, while it keeps a consistent temperature with a 15-second recovery time. Like I said, it heats up quickly and you can get to work right away. I haven’t used it for curls yet but it’s definitely a holy grail hair straightener for everyday use.

I think the award from QVC speaks for itself in that the CHI Smart Iron outshines all the others and is truly a fan favorite. Awesome quality, that really works. You can pick up your very own CHI Smart Iron HERE from QVC! Something really cool about shopping through QVC is that you can either buy it for $121 right away OR use their Easy Pay system (my favorite way to shop) and break it down into five payments of $24.20. It doesn’t get any better!
