I was a little weary of buying this product after reading the previous reviews. However, I did and I’m glad I did. It’s a great size for travelling and it gives my hair a nice curl (I have short hair). The only negative thing about the curling brush is that there is only one setting. It heats up enough for my hair though.

I love this curling brush. It is about six inches long that makes it very easy to curl my hair which is layered shoulder length. Heats up very fast but it comes with a two pin plug which is so cumbersome for Australian use.

Eureka !!! This is great.
After struggling with my old l-o-n-g curling brush I checked online and found this short version. Wow !! So much easier to use and it heats up quickly. Great price, too. Works great. I’m a happy gal.

Please don’t use this if you have shoulder length+ hair! I did and now have a bald spot!
I have shoulder length hair. I have been curling my hair, using a myriad of curling irons, for going on 40 years. Yes, from the straight, Ali Macgraw hair of the ’70s, to the billowing Farrah Fawcett looks of the ’80s and beyond, I have spent hours on end (yes, decades), curling and coiffing my locks. I purchased this curling iron for a recent trip abroad, excited to be visiting my daughter in Australia. I was looking for ways to save space and weight in my suitcase. Little did I know then, that I would be saving weight in other ways! I returned to the US with less hair than I started. Sadly, this curling iron became hopelessly entangled (yes, cemented!) in my hair! I was traveling with my 20-something daughter, when the iron got stuck in my hair (in a hotel room, with not a pair of scissors to be had), and the two of us struggled to remove the hair from the hot iron, and in a panic we pulled my hair out by the roots! Resulting in a 1-inch bald spot! I am still in shock! In hindsight, I acknowledge it would have been far better to let my hair fry on the iron, rather than pull it out, but having seen the Youtube video where a girl burns off her hair while demonstrating how to use a curling iron, my daughter and I were acting reflexively to a situation we’d never (and hope to never again!) encountered. Having had “long hair” in the past, I didn’t consider my shoulder length hair to be “long hair” (the description for this product says it is not for use with “long” hair). In writing this I’m hoping to spare some future traveler the trauma I experienced. For me, it could have been worse. The bald spot I’m now sporting is on the back of my head and is covered by my remaining (albeit spare) hair. But what if it had been on my part? Or along my hairline, by my face? Dodged a bullet, but still traumatized, nonetheless.

Gives my very straight short hair style and lift in minutes
I have a pixie bob and need to shampoo every day. Styling products and hair colours and treatments are a no go due to allergies and I donât have the patience to spend much time on my straight hair as it usually just goes flat against my scalp no matter what I do. I use this tool after blowing my hair dry or even leaving it to dry naturally making sure it is completely dry. It does the trick making my hair look well groomed in about three minutes, not curled, but it gives a little body, direction and shine. I was concerned that as it was so inexpensive it would not be well made, but it is a good quality tool and it arrived in very sturdy packaging. It only has an on/off switch with an indicator light to let you know it is on, there is no heat indicator so I leave it heat up for a minute or so, I donât find any problems with this. The temperature seems sufficient and the round tipped prongs keep the heated strips away from direct contact with my hands and scalp. The prongs work well to grip a bit, they arenât really slippery and hold my hair in one place or as I slowly move the brush through. It has a small barrel which is great on my 3-4â long hair. Overall it is small enough to neatly store on a narrow bathroom shelf. I have been using it about three weeks now. I am using it on 240volts, no need to change anything to set this voltage. It will be great to travel with, it even has its own little travel bag to keep the prongs away from your clothes.

Easy to use dual voltage
I just went to look for a dual voltage brush for European travel and discovered that this is the brush iron I bought 4 years ago and I love it . My hair is fine but natural curl and past my shoulders layered. It small and fits in its own bag and I always wondered why in previous trips it didnât blow out! This is my favorite as it is easy to use. Granted I donât use daily as I have natural wave and am a pony tail gal a lot but it works great and fast when I need a curl to wear my hair down . Guess I donât need to buy another one as it still works great !

It did take a minute to warm up after plugging it in and turning it on. Even though there is only one setting it seems to be the perfect heat. Not too hot! The brush moves through my hair well with no tangles. Itâs small enough to take travelling and it has a nice cloth bag with pull strings for storage. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Nice an easy
Very nice unit. Easy to use for hands with arthritis. Great job for short hair. Light easy to handle. Heats up quickly on off switch. Cools nicely. Comes in box with barrier bag.
