What do you think of when you hear the word runway? Glamor, fashion, models, flat irons? Yep, flat irons. The FHI Runway flat iron looks glamorous with its sleek black body suit and silver accessories. And the cost is just as posh being priced at more than $350. No that’s not a typo.
A flat iron has to be pretty darn amazing to command a price like that. Is the FHI Runway’s walk fierce enough to demand a fee of over $350?
Let’s look at the stats…

4 Stars out of 5
This is a great flat iron. It really is. But I took off one star because of the price. Saying that it costs $380 is being conservative. If you want to get it with a valid warranty (and trust me you do) it could cost $450. And to pay $450 for a flat iron it, to borrow a phrase from the South, needs to be might near perfect. And it’s not. So I wouldn’t really recommend it even though it is a great flat iron. You can find a flat iron for a lower price that is probably as good as this.
However, if you have your heart set on this flat iron and you have the cash, go ahead and buy the FHI Runway!
The GHD flat iron is a great flat iron and a relative steal in comparison to the Runway. If you have a flexible budget this is one of the best flat irons you can buy. I will try to do a review on it at some point. For now I think I will continue going through the FHI line and review the FHI Platform flat iron next.
Hey Ya’ll,
I found this question on Yahoo answers a little ago and I think it is a very obvious question but one that is not answered very often. Here is my take on it:
What the actual difference should be between expensive and cheap flat irons:
1) Expensive flat irons should first and foremost use higher quality material for their plates. For instance, the $200 Ghd should use more solid ceramic heaters and plates than the $30 Conair. The Conair usually uses a ceramic coating on its plate with the actual plate being made out of… metal, aluminum? I don’t know but it is not good for your hair nor does it produce the negative ions that give you the shiny look that you are going for when you flat iron
2) They should have more features that cheaper flat iron. Various nano technologies, digital displays, higher temperature settings, longer cords, and they should last longer than a drugstore flat iron although that is in no way guaranteed.
You won’t believe this,
I still can’t… I think it MUST be a misprint…Right?
