For all the BGs who wear their hair straight, I have found a product that you’ll surely love! This past weekend, I tried the R Sessions RootControl. This popular styling tool is part straightening comb and part 1/2 inch ceramic barrel iron. It gets (straightens) to the root of your hair allowing you to get close to the scalp without ever feeling the heat.
Plus, it has three heating levels that you can select depending on the coarseness of your tresses. At first, I wasn’t sure if it would do the job, but I was pleasantly pleased with the results considering I hadn’t had a relaxer in about 5 months. For women who desire straight styles or who just want to smooth out roots or edges, this tool is a must-have. It is the perfect complement to the trusty flat iron because it reaches areas that the ceramic plates can’t without burning your scalp. I think my hair styling arsenal is finally complete!
Available at www.rsessiontools.com for $179.99

Hey u seen my hair lately.. I need this in my life. Select Me. Pretty Please
just what i need …
I am natural but I have never straightened this would be a cool tool!
Cool Beans!!!!
(Hope I win!!)
OMG! BGG, I must have this thing! I bet it’s just what I need!
I am sure I have seen this somewhere and I wondered if it really worked.
I was also wondering would it take forever if you had thick hair?
i wish i had something like this when i was still flat ironing my hair. i will actually need it when i start back up again. right now, im just trying to let it regain it’s strength.
You know I’m natural, but I could use a good flat iron/straightening tool. I got my hair straightened for the first time in a year and a half and when home only to find out my old flat iron is broken. Womp.
Good point Kay C,
I would think one with thick hair could use a flat iorn forst without focusing on the roots then use this
I SO need this in my life so I can stop with the hair-snapping, hot & damaging blow-dryers that I know will KILL my hair line! : )
HI BGG
I have never heard of this product and the fact that I’m salivating now, means that I like it..lol
YAY for giveaways!
Have a great day
PJD
P.S. I think it’s ironic that my word verification word is “pressed” lol
I saw this on the Tyra Banks Show. I could definitely use this to smooth down my edges.
@PJD – That is so funny!!!
Great products when you’re on the run!
That is exactly what I need! I hope my name is chosen!
🙂
wow this seems like an awesome product, good stuff!
Wow… great find BG!
Have you heard of the new lines of organic relaxers? I’m a natural but my 10 year old niece got a dredful relaxer about a year ago and her poor hair has never been the same. So I’ve been trying all kinds of new products to save her from someone ruining her luscious locks. I’m trying the organic relaxer when it arrives in about a week! I’m excited!!
I’ve never heard of the RootControl, but boy am I excited to! LOL.
I’m now six months post relaxer, I’ve been wearing my hair in braidouts and I’m getting tired of the look. I don’t want to relax until September sooo, this would be a god sent for me!!!!!!!!!!!
My word verification word is calers, which is close to curlers, KINDA, do I get bonus points!!!??!!!!
Ah that is something I’ve been looking for!Thank you for this!
I’m currantly shopping for a flat iron and a blow dryer, so this would go perfect!
I have been looking for a new straightner too! I think I’ll look into this…
Thanks!
I haven’t tried this as I have locs but I’m sure my daughter would appreciate it. I’m not going to say I’m ALWAYS catching her scalp when I straighten her hair…but there have been the few times when things have gotten a bit too hot for her.
That is so funny because I was just telling my mother I was thinking about getting the instyler. I need something for the roots in between relaxers because I’ve been hitting the gym and have a brillo pad by the time my workout is done. LOL.
this is a awesome giveaway … hope I win
OMG I would LOVE to have this! I tried using my trusty (wonderful) Sedu straightener when I washed my hair and although it got my strands straight…my roots were still “big”. I would love something like this.
Can this only be used on the roots?
(fingers crossed)
This is brilliant. I just got my hair blown out the other day, but left worried about the curly roots that I knew were waiting to rear their heads in a most untimely fashion.
They’re here.
I have not used it myself but, have seen ppl work wonders with it. Particularly blending with weaves.
Ahhhh snap! This is cool, even if I don’t win I may actually need to invest in this!!
The sounds like a great tool for me since my hair is natural. Every now and then, I like to have options and deviate from the regular afro puff. The problem is when I flat iron…the roots rebel against it.
I’ve heard of it but I also knew the price would knock me right out of the box! Trust me, as a teacher, the few pennies I do earn are already accounted for!
Or should I just say…Pick me! Pick me!
Enjoy your day:)
Sorry…the English Teacher in me is rearing its ugly head…I meant to say in the post above “THIS sounds like a great tool for me…”
but still…Pick me, Pick me!
With all these comments my chance of getting picked are slim lol .. but nevertheless this is a great giveaway!
That sounds amazing, my mother would finally be proud of my hair… I always get the, “I didn’t raise you to walk out the house looking like that…” and a few other comments that I’m not sure are appropriate. me, please?
Just what I need – as well as my daughter – she’s 16 with a head full of root issues that need some control!
Love the blog – you Go Girl! Keep it up!!
I’ve never used this product. I watched the instruction video and it looks like it may be what I need right. I like straight edges but I am trying to go until the summer without a relaxer, this product looks like it could help me get the edges I want with out using chemical.
I so need this in my life!!
To say I need one of these would be an understatement. Pick me!!!!
I just saw something like that in CVS yesterday! I bet that straightens lovely!
I saw this on the tyra banks show but wasn’t sure it would work for coarse natural hair like mine. I get blowouts and my roots are never straight hopefully this will work for me as well. I’m really tempted now to invest in this tool.
totally need this as my thermal conditioning was the first thing to go in the recession
I hope I am not too late because this would be a stellar gift!
Wow, what a great tool.
I have never used it but
I am transitioning right now and have yet to find a holy grail hair tool that will whip my hair into shape without the use chemicals!
(Must…resist…relaxer)
I also have three girls, the eldest being 10 and 12 with two completely different heads of hair.
This would be a lifesaver for sure!
Woah, I can’t wait to try this new tool, if I brought this into my hairschool all eyes would be on me! Yes! Who has the cool new tool now! Ha! It seems really appropriate and id love 2 try it out…. I’m sure I could find some new growth somewhere…
I have never seen this before. i am natural but i do straighten my hair sometimes. this would be great for me.
It sounds amazing. I hardly ever straighten my hair because it takes forever. This sounds great though!
Oh WOW! This looks fabulous! I was just looking at the instyler but this looks much, much better. Pick me!!!! 🙂
Saw this on Tyra. It looks great. Would love to win it.
I have not had a perm since Oct.2008 I would love this!
this tool would do wonders for me because i have not gotten a perm in 6 months so my roots r grown out and my hair is getting difficult to comb but i do not want a perm because my hair is damaged.
