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!!

...* 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 ...
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 ...
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. ...
Advantages: cordless, inexpensive Disadvantages: not hot enough, catches hair
Babyliss Portability
I have probably mentioned before that I couldn't live without my GHDs,- best straighteners I've ever tried but they are too expensive to throw in your bag or leave in work. I was also wary about taking them on holiday in case they blew upburnt out with the voltage change (I really love my GHDs and this did happen to my friends dryer in the Canaries)
Last summer in Boots sale I found a cordless version of the Babyliss straighteners ... ...gas like in the old braun curling tongs) and thought they'd be ideal for holidays or leaving in my drawer at work the rest of the year in case I got caught in the rain. The silver, black and white packaging looked quite upmarket and the front proclaimed High temperature Ceramic coated plates for an ultra smooth finish and the reduced price of £9.99 swung it for me as I could pay that for lunch somedays.
Another important note on the box was "Approved ...
