Don't get the CHI. It breaks after a year and plus it frys your hair. I suggest the Solia. It has adjustable teperature to 450 degrees while the CHI usually goes to 370 degrees. It leaves your hair smooth and feeling nice and there are glazed plates. You don't even have to straighten your hair all the time because it says straight forever. It's $80-85 on sale. It's originally $130 and it has a 2 year warranty unlike all of the other straighteners which only have 1. Here is the link:

It's a best seller. Look at the reviews and stuff. (go to the bottom of the page where it says read all reviews to see results). It's the best straightener ever.

Conair is the best type of flat iron to get. I have had mine for almost 8 years now and nothing is wrong with it it works like I just bought it yesterday. It was only $25.00 and here is a website that will help you decide on what you want http://www.conair.com/hair-styling-irons-hair-stra...

P.S. People say Conair is the worst you can get but that is a lie because all my products are from Conair and there is nothing wrong with any of them. Hope I helped!

I have a Chi and I absolutely love it. I've tried other flat irons in the past, but nothing works as good as this one. It will straighten hair no matter how wild your hair is. It's amazing! I know you wanted to stay under $100, but these are a bit more depending on which model you get, but believe me, they are well worth the price. They last and are wonderful! Here's a link to view some of them on Target's website.

Good luck!
