The only flat iron my hairstylist will use

I honestly can’t remember when I got my current flat iron. It could have been more than 10 years ago but it’s still going strong, probably because I don’t use it all that often. Yet every time I do bust it out, I can’t help but think about the smooth, sleek result I only get at the hands of my stylist, L.A., at Boca’s Peter Coppola Salon—and although she’s talented beyond compare, I think my straightening appliance has something to do with it.

So when I got a haircut last week, I had to ask the brand and model of her flat iron, and it turns out it’s BaByliss Pro’s Nano Titanium Prima 3000. Beyond sounding very high-tech and sophisticated, it actually is. With floating titanium plates for optimal tension, super-fast heat-up, ionic technology for extra shine and curved edges that let you use it to curl as well, it’s basically the Rolls-Royce of flat irons—and I really want one.

I actually regret not spending more time to find a good deal over Thanksgiving weekend (since I was too busy shopping for Chanukah gifts), so if anyone spots one on sale, please let me know!
