Hair Straighteners > 40 GBP to 49 GBP Hair Straighteners > Babyliss

Iron out the kinks and we'll talk...

Advantages: Heat up very quickly, nice accessories.
Disadvantages: Heavy, noisy, expensive.

...* A set of BaByliss Pro 230 Radiance (red) straighteners. * A heatproof mat. * Protective carry-case. * Four plastic hair clips. * Instructions. MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS - - - - - I quite excited (yes I know its sad) to get these out of the box and start using them, after all, I'd heard such great things... I was impressed with the design of the carry pouch and the heatproof mat. They are both a metallic red; not as bright a red as I was expecting, but ...
...the bells & whistles that BaByliss have added, although I wouldn't consider the extras to weigh that much! It may not be the end of the world, but for me personally I think they are a bit chunky & clunky, and that combined with their weight means that they can be a bit awkward sometimes. The issue of noise has to be mentioned too. I have never owned such a noisy pair of straighteners! The first time I turned these on, I thought they were faulty as ...

Review of BaByliss 2034U PRO 230

ghd review hummm not that great

Advantages: does leave a smooth finish
Disadvantages: broke easily and didnt curl as easy as original ones

...the limeted edition version the ghd was a hard plastic and i felt you could feel the heat in your hands more when using and that it didnt seem as effective as the original especially when trying to curl. so needless to say i wouldnt reccomend the limeted edition version as i feel that they are not as good only the packaging is nicer. ...

Review of Ghd Limited Edition Styler - Hair Straightener

Remington Wet2Straight Slim hair straightner

Advantages: Can be used on wet & dry hair. Heats up in 15 seconds
Disadvantages: roots of hair are still damp when straightening from wet

As a Bzz Agent I was invited to test these straightners at a reduced price. I'm so glad I did. I feel they are very easy to use, slim and slightly curved, making it good to hold. I got them to save me time. I can straighten from towel dried hair, instead of blow drying then straightening, it takes about 10 mins. They has a blue LED light for wet & a green light for dry. It is easy to change between settings and to adjust the temperature. In my opinion ...
...does hiss and there's some steam when used on wet hair, which is normal. They have a fabric pouch which I think is handy for storage. My hair is quite thick so I can't get it poker straight, but it looks loads better than not straightened & stays styled all day with no frizz. ...

Review of Remington Wet2Straight Slim

Excellent Straighteners & a Great Gift

Advantages: Durable, Perfect Straight Hair, So Simple To Use
Disadvantages: Don't use on wet hair it damages them

...a hairdresser and swears by GHD she should actually just change jobs and promote them that’s how passionate and convincing she can be. And to quote her in some way - Yes they are more expensive than most of the other brands but unless you are really unlucky you will never need to own another pair of straighteners again as they are so good and durable. The fact that she can do hers & my hair in just one stoke achieving perfect straightness is amazing ...

Review of Ghd Limited Edition Styler - Hair Straightener

GHD Styler - hair straighteners that save time and effort!

Advantages: heats up quickly! straightens, curls and creates waves! turns off automatically if left on!!
Disadvantages: can't straighten when hair is wet

...to select one from the GHD range. Their obviously higher prices seemed to be more for a one of Christmas or birthday present, not something solely for vanity purposes! However, when I came to finally decide to buy this product, I was AMAZED. Truly, coming from someone who loves to do her hair all the time and takes pride in her appearance, this product certainly shaved off so much time from my daily routine. I can straighten and curl with it, which ...
...which just means you need to invest in a good hairdryer to use beforehand (if you’re not into letting it dry naturally!). So yeah, go for this product! Or any other ghd product – they are simply the best, and will give you a ‘good hair day’ !! :o) ...
