Celebrating Moms #21: Misikko Hana Professional Flat Iron 1’’ – Pink Edition Review and Giveaway




Having natural wavy hair means a little more time goes into fixing it each day...especially when it's at a length where I can't pull it up if I want. Thankfully Misikko offers a great line of products to make getting ready each day easier and faster than ever!

For five years, Misikko has committed themselves to finding the newest innovations in the hair and beauty industry. It's their desire to give people an easy way to shop for, and compare, the best professional styling tools and beauty products out there. Whether you're looking for a Chi hair straightener or professional hair dryers...they have it all!

Misikko sent me their Hana Professional Flat Iron 1" - Pink Edition to review.

Hana Professional Features;
  • Stylish pink edition!
  • Advanced Tourmaline Ceramic Plates for Accelerated Ion Generation and Maximum Frizz-Free, Conditioning Shine
  • Ceramic is naturally hygienic, protects color & retards fading
  • Floating 1” Plates Auto-Adjust To Glide Over Any Hair Texture
  • Curved Plate Edges For Versatile Styling - Curl, Flip or Straighten!
  • Adjustable Temperature Dial - 5 Settings from 140-450° F for All Hair Types
  • Flash Heats in Seconds with Instant Compensation for Heat Loss
  • Ergonomic Handle Design with No-Slip Grip
  • Smooth Grooves Keep Hair Strands Separate and Snag-Free
  • Tangle-Free Salon Quality Cord Swivels 360°; Convenient Hanging Loop
  • Energy Efficient at 38 Watts
  • Independent On/Off Switch
  • Includes Luxe Heat Proof Storage Pouch, Heat Proof Silicone Mat, & Special Edition Tin Case
  • Made in Korea
  • Two Year Warranty
I was very excited when the flat iron arrived on my doorstep and couldn't wait to try it out! Upon opening the package I was very impressed with it and all the goodies. Along with this pretty pink flat iron came a Luxe Heat Proof Storage Pouch, Heat Proof Silicone Mat, Special Edition Tin Case and more! Just look at how beautifully it arrived!


I've taken this flat iron with me on a couple of trips already and love having the storage pouch to keep it protected. I had never used a heat proof mat before and can't believe I went this long without one. It's perfect for keeping my counter tops safe. These are probably a couple of my favorite accessories and such great quality too.



Of course the big question was...how would I like the flat iron. Well...having used it several times now, I can tell you it's one of the nicest I've tried. The Advanced Tourmaline Ceramic Plates help leave my hair shiny and healthy looking. It's also very easy to use and takes just minutes to straighten my hair. I love the curved plate edges as this allows me to use it in many ways...to straighten, to flip, and to curl! They auto-adjust making it a great choice for all textures of hair.

The adjustable temperature dial has 5 Settings from 140-450° F which is also nice as it suits many different types of hair as well.


I also received the Hana ShineShield. It's a thermal serum that can be used as a leave-in conditioner - lightweight and never greasy, it protects and strengthens hair whether you use it with a flat iron, hair dryer or alone. I absolutely love it and can't believe I went so long without using something like this! Designed to protect and restore both my hair and scalp, the Hana ShineShield deeply conditions and removes build up...leaving me with simply healthy hair.

Overall I'm very pleased with the Pink 1" Hana Professional Flat Iron. The quality is fantastic which lets me know this is something that will give me the results I'm looking for time after time. It would definitely make a great Mother's Day gift this year.
