The 11 Best Flat Irons on Amazon, Starting at Just $14

Wavytalk Mini Flat Iron 0.7 Inch Ceramic Mini Hair Straightener ($14, originally $20)

Not only is this hair straightener ridiculously cute in size, but it's also perfect for travel. It comes with its own heat-protective glove and travel bag, so you're ready to go. Whether you want a compact option for your daily routine, a tool just for styling your bangs, or something that slips easily into your carry-on, we have a feeling you'll join the thousands who swear by it.

Vanessa Flat Iron Hair Straightener and Curler ($40)

For curls, waves, or sleek straight hair, style with ease with this flat iron. If you prefer titanium-plated flat irons over ceramic-plated ones, give this a try. For those deciding between the two, many opt for titanium due to its fast heat-up time, lightweight design, and the way it glides smoothly through hair.

TYMO Hair Straightener Brush ($47, originally $60)

We love a good innovation, which is why this hair-straightening brush earned a spot on our list of the best hair straighteners on the market. It went viral on TikTok, and one of our editors put it to the test — confirming it's every bit as worthy of the praise flooding the platform. Learn more about it in our TYMO Hair Straightener Brush review.

Editor Quote: "Although I used this for the first time on day-three hair when my hair had already been mostly straight, I've also tested it out after air-drying my hair when my hair has been a frizzy, unruly mess. It worked perfectly for taming all of my flyaways and wavy pieces, and it did it faster than my flat iron ever could." — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social producer

CHI Original Flat Hair Straightening Ceramic Iron ($48, originally $100)

If you love the look of sleek and smooth hair, you can't go wrong with this flat iron. It heats up to around 390 degrees Fahrenheit. It has one-inch floating ceramic plates, perfect for getting every inch of your hair, from hard-to-reach places to your roots. You can even create curls and flips with it. Many Amazon shoppers note that their hairstylist recommended it and are glad they took their word for it.

Hot Tools Professional Micro-Shine Flat Iron ($54, originally $120)

For a high-quality option that will last you for years, consider this flat iron. Customers love its versatility; it can smooth hair, create curls, form beach waves, create pin curls, and flip the ends. The soft-touch finish provides comfortable grip, and it has universal dual voltage, which is great for travel.

T3 Smooth ID 1" Flat Iron with Touch Interface ($270)

This flat iron takes hairstyling to the year 3000 with its interactive HeatID technology. It has the ability to personalize nine heat settings to your hair type with a touch of the screen, ensuring optimal heat for smooth styles in one pass. Customize your settings according to your hair type and texture, color treatment, and more.

GHD Chronos ($287, originally $359)

When one of our editors accidentally left her GHD hair straightener at a hotel (devastating), she took it as the perfect excuse to upgrade to one of the brand's newer models: the Chronos. She — along with countless reviewers — swears it leaves hair silky-soft, smooth, frizz-free, and heats up in seconds. Read more about it in our GHD Chronos review.

Editor Quote: "I also love how quickly the flat iron heats up. It only takes 20 seconds, and I'm perpetually running late, so I love that I can turn it on, and by the time I've finished sectioning my hair off, it's ready for me to use." — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social producer

Dyson Airstrait Straightener ($499)

All of Dyson's hair innovations are super high-tech, and the Airstrait Straightener is no exception. It dries and straightens wet hair using a proprietary airflow system — not hot plates, like many other brands. It's ideal for those looking to streamline their beauty routine and prevent hair damage. It comes highly rated by our senior beauty editor, who deemed it worth the investment. Read more in our Dyson Airstrait Straightener review.

Editor Quote: "I found it easy to work in pretty large sections of hair — roughly two-inch pieces — and didn't experience any snags or knots. The Airstrait actually detangled hair in the process of drying it. My final result was silky-smooth hair with lots of shine that felt healthy (as opposed to fried)." — Jessica Harrington, senior beauty editor

Dyson Corrale Styler Straightener ($500)

If you're looking for the ease and flexibility of a cordless option, Dyson's Corrale Straightener is worth considering. It gives up to 30 minutes of straightening time and takes 70 minutes to fully charge. The flexing plates help to better grip hair so that you can have shiny, smooth, and straight hair in less time with minimal damage. After discovering that this flat iron is Hailey Bieber's go-to hair tool, our editor decided to put it to the test. For more details and before and after photos, check out this Dyson Corrale Styler Straightener review.

Editor Quote: "What really set this product apart from other straighteners I've tried was the fact that it straightened all of the kinks and bends out of my air-dried hair without sacrificing volume. I was also able to bring it with me on a quick overnight vacation sans charging dock, which was such a huge plus." — Renee Rodriguez, staff writer and social producer
