Reviews of Hair Straighteners »

Perfect straightener for your everyday needs!

Advantages: Colour, accessories, performance
Disadvantages: None so far

I was looking for a new straightener, one that would actually keep my hair straight AND give my hair a nice shine as well as keeping it conditioned. I was looking at a GHD straightener, however, I saw this straightener in Argos reduced from the reduced price of £79 odd to £31.32. There and then I knew that was the straightener for me!! What you get You get one blueberry straightener, a heatproof mat, blueberry clutch bag, instruction leaflet ...

Review of BaByliss 2088 U PRO 230 Elegance

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 ...

Good budget Straighteners

Advantages: Heat quickly, good performance, nice budget pair
Disadvantages: Results not as good as expensive ones

...until I came across the Babyliss 2025HU professional slim ceramic straightening iron on Amazon. With an RRP of £19.99 I only actually paid a partial £12.99 for these and as they were quite cheap they seemed to fit the bill in case I was to lose them on holiday. Of course they do not give me the same performance as my Remington straighteners but as they cost a whole £50 less I never expected them to. One of the problems I’ve had in the past is the ...
...anything to my hair. My hair can be quick think and curls quite a bit if it dries when it is wet. So I was quite surprised that these reached a temperature that not only got to grips with the thickness of my hair but also got hot enough to give me a finished result I was very happy with. It normally takes me about 15 minutes for these to really do the job on my hair. At times I wish I hate my friend Lindsey’s hair as hers is always done so much ...

fantastic straightners

Advantages: Temperature adjustment and easy to handle.
Disadvantages: None as of yet.

...hair- and I went to Babyliss as they have never failled me when I used their other products. The Babyliss 2085U work beautifully on your hair, they have a range of temp settings on a dial are dead simple to use and will leave even the wildest hair tamed! I would really recommend these to anyone searching for new straightners- they are just as good as the others that are always advertised and I feel that they may even be better! (anything that can ...
...must be good) Other straightners can be too hot and therefore ruin your hair but these are really not going to do that. You can get them in most stores- mine were off the highstreet! I have had mine for a year now and they still work the same as the day I bought them- trust me these are an investment- not a whim buy. They will last and will leave your hair straight and yet still full of life. ...

Babyliss 2075U Review

Advantages: Easy to use, Variable temperature
Disadvantages: Buttons very easy to change without realising.

I dont normally by Babyliss so was quite cautious at first, these have been one of the best products i've bought this year. Bought these hair straighteners due to my Remington straighteners going faulty. They are easy to use and the gold ceramic plates make my hair smooth, sleek and shiny. The Variable temperature helps and is viewed on the top arm of the straighteners making it easy to maintain the correct setting. The buttons though are easy to ...
