Overview
CHI pairs its Lava MiniStyler flat iron with a small bottle of its iron guard spray in this gift duo. The ceramic plates heat across a narrow high range, and a twist lock under the base holds the iron shut for packing.
Dual voltage and a locking design make it a ready travel iron, and the included heat protectant covers the first step. The minimum heat is fairly high, so very fine or fragile hair has no low setting to fall back on.
Who it's for
People who straighten on the road, including abroad, will find it easy to pack. Those who style fine hair at gentle heat should look for an iron with a lower floor.
Pros and cons
- Dual voltage for travel
- Locks closed for packing

Performance notes
Plate temperature and pass speed govern the result: fluid single passes through small sections give the smoothest finish. The ceramic surface spreads heat evenly, and the guard spray sets a barrier before the plates touch the hair.
