Love it!

I am super surprised by how much I love this. First of all, Iv'ee never curled my hair before. I mean, there was that one time in college when my friend made me try and she laughed the entire time because of how pathetic it was to watch. I just didn't have the 鈥渢ouch鈥? I guess. It seemed like sorcer...y, and I'm no sorceress. However, I just got my hair done, and have been on a personal 鈥済low up鈥?mission this year, so I figured now is the time to dedicate to learning. I had my hairdresser show me how I should do it, then bought this. I actually waited a bit to try it after it was delivered because I didn't have high ones for it. I have SUPER thick hair - both in terms of quantity and quality of each strand - and another WAY more expensive option didn't work. So, this was all I had left. When I finally sat down to do it, I was SHOCKED. In like 20 minutes, I had curled my hair. And it actually looked decent. Now, I'm obsessed with this hair gadget. I use it for both straightening and curling, and love it for both. It heats up quickly, and I love the fan action. I feel like the air actually helps keep your hair healthy and helps set the curls. I have to use high heat so I feel like every little bit counts, and this does. After using this, I can keep my hair looking blown out for two to three days if I don't wash it. I love that you don't have to clamp down using your hand the way you would using a normal straightener. It helps keeps my hands from getting too tired halfway through my head. My only gripes are that I do hit the power button by accident sometimes as others have mentioned, and I wish the wand were a little longer. It might help get some areas in the back of my head a little easier. If you鈥檙e buying this primary for use as a straightener, it's great for that too, just know that it might not get quite as close to your scalp as some other dedicated straighteners might. I haven't really minded this at all though, because the difference isn't super drastic to me. The product itself feels really high quality, especially at this price point. The packaging was really nice, and it came with a glove and some hair clips inside the box, as well as a fabric pouch to keep the tool in. If you鈥檙e on the fence, I definitely recommend giving this a shot!
