text: Straight as a arrow!
  
  We didn't buy this for our beards because we don't have any. However, my wife uses this for our daughters hair. It does a great job and it heats up pretty quickly compared to our last one. I don't know what kind of material they used for the brush part but it's high quality. The cord is nice and long for them. I recommend this if you're looking for a good hair straightener.
