Review: Great Curling Iron! - I previously had a Bed Head, 1" clipless iron that I bought for $8 at Target on sale. It definitely took practice to get to use well (I burned myself a couple of times), sometimes the curls would fall nicely sometimes not. Overall, I felt the 1" barrel was too thin for my personal tastes, but I could make it work if I tried and had a lot of time to work with it. I don't hate the iron, and I'm keeping it just in case (it can make some nice looks too!), but I wanted a new iron that fit my needs better. I bought this for myself for my birthday, so I could dress up a little and feel fancier while going clubbing or going to special events. I always wanted to curl my hair but didn't feel a curling iron was worth the investment [normally $50-$60 for a better quality iron] for me personally, as I can't imagine curling my hair often. The price of this one was just so great (a little less than $30), I couldn't help myself. Pros: --1 1/4" barrel The curls are exactly what I wanted: voluminous and sexy. If you leave the curler in you hair for less time, you can have cute waves, too. Some styling and you just look like you worked so hard. Having all of the sections in 1" curls was not always flattering on my long (mid-back level), slightly layered hair. It could look a little like a lion's mane haha, if I wasn't careful. Oftentimes I'd pull some back to do a half-up, half-down to make things look better. This 1 1/4" is just so much more ideal for me. [Maybe check Youtube videos and see what girls use when they curl their hair for examples?] --Clip The clip prevents you from using your hand to wrap around the barrel and is therefore relatively safer imo. I would sometimes not use a glove with the clipless (not recommended), but lightly burned myself once. Still, you have to be careful with either--both are safe as long as the user is safe! The clipless effect does look a little different--The main difference is the slight crease where the clip holds onto the end of your hair--but I don't mind. To me it's a little too much effort with my long hair to deal with the clipless iron. --Heat settings Talking with friends of mine who curl their hair far more often than I, I heard a couple of times that a better quality (read: more expensive) curling iron with heat settings is really worth the investment. And normally higher quality ones have heat settings. According to some previous reviews I chose not to use the highest setting right away. I generally keep this one around the same heat: A mid-level makes nice looser curls on my normal (not too thick) hair. --Aesthetic I love black and gold together, so this just looks so nice to me. The gold is also supposed to be a good material to make a barrel out of! For smoother curls. --Value $30 is not bad for a Hot Tools curling iron. Cons: --Can't think of any yet! I've had no problems.
Review: Great For Bouncy, Voluminous Blow Outs! - I bought this to curl my hair and set it in rollers for a bouncy, voluminous, soft curl blow-out. This has been such a great curling iron! PROS: - has an ON/OFF button and a temperature control dial - heats up really quickly - the clamp does not squeak, it opens/closes very smoothly and my hair never gets caught in the clamp portion - the cable is really high quality which makes for storing the curler a lot easier, the cord never gets tangled and never gets caught on things when using it or storing it - this is a high quality curling iron -- my hair holds the curl pretty well (and I've had issues in the past where my hair falls out almost immediately after using a really cheap curling iron) - this is perfect for curling your hair before putting in rollers, once you take the rollers out you have a really gorgeous, bouncy, voluminous hairstyle - love that it has a little metal stand for the curling iron to lay on when setting it down - works really great for shoulder length hair CONS: - honestly, none!

## Available Options

This product comes in different **Size** options.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which size should I get? The 1.25 or 1.5 barrel? I want looser curls**
A: I recommend the smaller size, which will allow you to curl larger sections at once with less time with heat on your hair. You can run your fingers through the curls to get looser curls. I have the 1" and the 1.25" and have medium/long hair that's medium fine and all one length. I use the 1.25" for body and 1" when I want more defined curls. The curls stay more defined throughout the day using the 1".

**Q: I have long, almost to my waist hair, straight...what size should I get if I want "curls", not just a soft "s" shape? Is the 2 in too big? Should I go**
A: A 2 inch curling iron will give your hair some light body in your hair.  Similiar to blowing drying it with big round brush. But, if you are looking for curls, I would go with a 1" or 1.5" for bigger curls.  If you want tighter curls, get a 1" wand.  There are all kinds of videos on how to curl long hair with wands.  You can get two different looks depending on how you wrap your hair around wand. Good luck!

**Q: what size for fine, shoulder length hair?**
A: You should use a 1 inch barrel or bigger the bigger the barrel the looser the curl.  Use an argon oil product on your hair for protection on your ends and extra shine.  I like to use argon oil on WET hair because on dry hair it can make your hair greasy.

**Q: Is it dual voltage?  Thanks.**
A: It is 110V. American voltage. I bought a power converter.
