Buy the Head Extreme Pro if you're already advanced, otherwise the Head Flash Woman 2.0 is the right beginner pick.
Same brand, totally different rackets aimed at totally different players. The Head Extreme Pro at £180 to 235 is a 360 to 375g diamond, high balance, Hard EVA core, 3K carbon attacker built for advanced players. The Head Flash Woman 2.0 at £60 is the entry-level women's-fit option for newcomers.
This isn't really a comparison so much as two different paths.
Buying the Extreme Pro as a first racket would be a serious mistake. It's around three times the price and offers nothing useful to a beginner, in fact it'll make learning harder, not easier. The reverse is also true. If you're already winning at advanced level, the Flash Woman won't have the precision or feedback you need.
Match the racket to the player, not the badge.
