Is this for African American Hair or can white people use this as well?

I am white and i use it...its not heavy duty and isn't a professional one i think on the box it says its made by remington or conair or something which dosapointed me,but works fairly well and to all the other negative reviews about it pulling your hair, if you dont have a lot of split ends and you run it through and a fairly even slower but not slow pace it wont snag. just don't yank it through your hair real fast i think that goes for all flat irons tho.

I'm Hispanic and I love it! It has different heat settings so if you don't need it so hot you can turn it down.

I am Caucasian with super thick, wavy hair and this straightener works awesome for me and makes my hair look healthier.

I believe you can use it on dark brown hair.I used it on Afro dark/gray hair and it gave me a perfect bleach.

Yes, the product is white. It is very rich and you only use about 1/4" for a whole head of hair. My hair is shoulder-length and I use a bit over that amount. It is an after (or before) shampoo conditionor. If you use it after shampoo, you leave it in the hair - don't rinse - and it makes the hair soft, shiny and tames the static fly-away hair.

I am caucasian with baby fine, straight hair and it works great for me. While some companies may market products for particular ethnicities or hair types, it really just comes down to trying things and figuring out for yourself if it works for you.

Sorry I am not sure. HSI is professional quality and used in many salons so my research included a few calls to my hair stylist to ask her opinion. Maybe u can call a place that works mainly with African American hair to get more info :) Good luck & I hope it works out for u!

My beautician recommend this & told me it can be used on all types of hair for breakage areas. I can tell the difference. I am African American & she is Dominican. I have Caucasian friends that have used it too.

Yes, it does work on African American hair. This is the first time I've used it for my dry, damaged, over-processed hair. My hair is thick and coarse and after the first application, feels and looks soft and healthy! Instead of leaving it on for 10 minutes per the instructions, I left it on for 30 minutes and put a plastic cap over it. So far, it's a keeper!

If you make sure to part hair and place directly on scalp, or someone does it for you it's ok. But I am half Cuban and half African American, so I put oil in my hair anyway. I don't over do it, I just make sure I get it on my scalp and massage it in.

Absolutely. My mother is African American and she uses it with much success. We wear our hair natural. Mom with braids and I have dreads. I don't know how straightened hair will react to the liquid (like if it will kink up) but it worked well thickening African American hair.

I have brown hair and use this weekly. (And LOVE IT!) It is designed to remove minerals, so I would guess it is fine for all hair colors, the package just mentions itisn't for grey or white hair. You must deep condition after, it really strips your hair...

I do not know it works the Redken version that I bought. It works fine but it is kind of bulky to use.however it does my hair very well. And I have African American hair.

I don't know about African American hair, but I had no trouble except for the final foam I was using to much and my scalp started breaking out. I learned how to use it the right way and have started it again with no problems. I stopped for about 2 months and had no problem with hair falling out.

Im African American also and I use it on my natural hair and I don't have a problem. .. but I do spray it then let it sit before I flat iron it.

My daughter is biracial (Half black, half white) with wild, curly hair. This works on her hair just fine. It is a little more tricky getting them out, though...they sometimes take a few strands of hair with them. But that's really no big deal, we just take them out slowly and carefully. I imagine it would work on pretty much any hair type.

It is for every type of hair. My daughter has long hair and a hair professional recommend it to her. We also use on our dogs and cats. We love it.

Yes and it works very well!! I'm mixed African American and Cuban and it works very well on my hair. My hair is straight with only one pass of the flat iron. I bought mine about 3 years ago and it still works as well as the day I bought it...
