    The product, in the report: Power IQ Flat Iron, white in color, 1” tourmaline plates

    I was flat ironing my hair this morning. I purchased the Power IQ flat Iron with tourmaline plates back in 2010 from Sally Beauty Supply. About 3 months ago when using the same product my bangs got burned completely off! I thought maybe that time that my hair had still been wet from the shower and that it was my own fault. However after the incident this morning I have realized that this product now overheats and raises its temperature on its own. While flat ironing my bangs this morning they got burned again. Almost like I set fire to them. The flat iron has a digital temperature setting and I had it set at 400 degrees, but the flat iron can go up higher than that. But after my previous incident I never set it past 400. My hair was not wet as I had not taken a shower. Once I realized my bangs had gotten burned yet again I went to pick up the flat iron to inspect it. It was so hot that I could not even pick it up. I had to unplug it and wait for 10 minutes for it to cool down before I could even touch it again. The temperature had gotten up way past the alotted degrees. This is very unsafe! What if I had forgotten to unplug it? No telling how hot it could have gotten, probably would have burned my boyfriends house down. Not to mention now I have to go out it public with burned off hair and wait for it to grow back. Its publically humiliating and very frustrating as I paid about $70 for this product to malfunction and ruin my hair!
