flat iron

Heated styling tool

A flat iron is a hairstyling tool with two heated plates that clamp together to straighten hair by pressing it flat.

The term also refers to an old-fashioned iron for pressing clothes, heated on a stove rather than electrically.

In some regions, flat iron names a cut of beef from the shoulder blade, valued for its tenderness and flavor.
