I've been wanting a maxi since I first saw the infomercial.  I've heard of ppl getting one for a cheaper price from various places, but Im not too sure which one is legit. 

So seeing that you got yours, and it works just fine... I would like to know where'd you get yours?  If you don't mind. Thank You!  

Thank you merisit.  I got mine from Bed Bath and Beyond.  I don't know if you have one of those in your area but they are $80 in there.  That's probably the cheapist you will find that iron.  If you're looking to buy online most people get their flat irons from folica.com.  HTH

Thanks.  Actually I wrapped it and sat under the dryer.  I don't  like to blow dry and flat iron because it's too much heat for me.  After I took down the wrap I did lightly blow dry for maybe 2 or 3 minutes because it was a little damp.  Nope, haven't tried TCP.  I don't think I will be straying from the Maxiglide anytime soon.

There was a huge thread on the Straightening Board about the TCP.  Based on the posters' results, I would NEVER use that thing.  Too many posts about burned hair and melting irons makes April scared.

Make every day you have count, before the time comes for you to count every day you have.

Yeah, the book said to make sure you don't use the steam until after you pass the first 3 inches of hair so I waited until I got way down because I was scared.  I'm pretty sure if you try that it won't burn.

Thanks, you can also get it from Bed Bath and Beyond.  Good luck on finding an iron.

I looked it up...its not in my price range at the moment . I'm between  trying flatrioning or Dominican Blowout. 

No, the steam didn't revert my hair at all.  The booklet says the steam is used to soften tough stubborn hair.  What you do is pre-soften on the first swipe using steam bursts and on the second swipe you don't use it.  It is described as being like the steam from a clothes iron to help smooth out wrinkles......I know that sounds funny but it works.  I didn't use it the whole time and my hair came out just as straight.  The steam also adds shine.

I'm with you on the price thing.  It wasn't in my price range for a long time either but I decided to finally splurge and buy it.

Lol.  Your welcome.  No, the BTZ isn't heavy at all.  I made sure my hair was covered thouroughly with it and it didn't get heavy.  It's great stuff.  Yeah, I noticed that with the Fantasia serum.....it has a lot of cones in it which kinda scared me away from it.  The BTZ seems to be moisturizing because I've had my hair flat ironed for a week and I've only had to lightly moisturize my ends a few times.  My hair is still so shiny from it.
