The first time I used the straightener I noticed how light it was. Never have I ever used a flat iron that was so light and petite, yet big enough to straighten a two or three inch section of my hair. Not only was it light, but it glided along my strands smoothly without tearing at my delicate ends. (A big plus for someone prone to split ends.)
The Hana has five temperature settings suitable for fine, medium or coarse hair. The highest temperature is hot enough to straighten curls while the lowest is great for reducing frizz or creating bounce. I must warn you however that the highest temperature, 450 degrees, is very hot and should be used with caution as fine hair can be damaged easily.
Now lets compare this Hana flatiron with a CHI flatiron.
What is the difference? Not that much of a difference except for its weight, its heat adjustments, and the fact that it contains tourmaline. According to Misikko.com, tourmaline and ceramic increase negative ions which help protect and smooth the hair cuticle. The heat adjustments are a plus compared to a classic CHI which only has one temperature. In actuality, after using both a CHI and a Hana, my hair feels pretty much the same depending on how I style it.
Overall, if you're looking for a light weight flat iron that versatile yet hot, try this one out.
