Review of Braun GCS 70 Style N'GO by
KarenSioned
Advantages: Easy to use,pack and does the job
Disadvantages: You have to remember to buy replacement cartridges
I love my Braun style and go, it is so verstaile and easy to use.
it is small enough to carry in a bag or suitcase- indeed I never go without my style'n go.
This hair styler relies on gas cartridges to heat the curling tongs/ brush.
It is simple to use, just place the cartridge into the base, click into place and youare ready to go.
To switch on- all you need to do is slide the 'on' button from the '0' setting to the '1' setting,you then click ... ...few seconds for the item to heat up and you are ready to go!
THis styler can be used with the brush attatchment or the tongs, Yyou can find this by sliding the brush attatchment off the tongs. You may need to depress the catch to release this.
I tend to use the brush attatchment most of the time as this is what styles my hair best. I have shoulder length hair and very difficult to hold hair.
You can get some lovely curls and waves of a medium ...

Smooth or curls? You choose!
Review of Braun C31S Smoothstyler by
laramax
Advantages: Very portable can use it anywhere, tried and tested
Disadvantages: Need to purchase refills
I have been using Braun gas powered styling wands for more years than I care to remember - having been born with straight hair (and having a mother who really wanted me to have curls) over the years I have spent time and money trying to introduce a 'bend' into it.
Not for me the tight curls I had as a child (courtesy of my mother perming it on a regular basis) nor is the straight hair so popular these days. I like a little 'bend' just enough to ... ...So, as my old Braun was loooking a little tired, I went out seeking a replacement. My wanderings took me into Curry's where they were offering the Braun Smoothstyler C31S for just £12.99 - the shelf edge label suggested this was 'half price' and I never can resist a bargain!
The box comes complete with the styler, cover, styling brush a small and a large gas refill and a small and large handle to suit the gas refills - which is pretty good value ...

Do you fancy a quick curl?
Review of Braun GSS70 by
jo145
Advantages: Curl hair anywhere, does not need electricity.
Disadvantages: Can cause dry hair/ damage if used too often.
...My old tongs were Braun which I bought when we went on a canal holiday a few years ago, and as I still had some energy cells I decided to go for another Braun to save wasting these.
The choice is absolutely amazing, but all I wanted was a gas tong to give a quick curl to my hair in the morning or if it needed it before going out after work. I decided against one which had a water chamber and went for the bargain priced one which was on offer in ... ...many points it was FREE!
*SIZE*
Size is important! Especially, if you want to pop it in your handbag. It has a 3.5 cm diameter and is normally 22cm. in length, but this is a clever little number and they provide you with a smaller cell and end piece and so it only measures 18cm. Very useful to tong your hair at a wedding if your hair has been flattened by wearing a hat!
*ENERGY CELLS*
The little cell is 5cm long and wouldn’t last for very long ...

BaByliss You Curl- You're worth it!!!
Review of BaByliss You Curl by
katrinakubisa
Advantages: gorgeous curls, smooth shiny and straight hair as well!!
Disadvantages: cooling thongs may damage hair a bit
I would like to review BaByliss You Curl Styler from my point of view (read: point of view of person who has got big problems with making any hairdo, with very heavy looking hair). I'm not going to tell you all technical stuff about it, I'll just simply explain if…and how it works. Since I remember my hair has always looked a bit messy and trust me, I take a lot care of my hair, I spend quiet lot of money each month on all kinds of conditioners, ... ...me I have seen an BaByliss You Curl advert and decided to try. I got in on Christmas from my boyfriend. Just a few seconds after unwrapping present I was plugging it and waiting for it to heat up. First thing that I noticed is that it takes really short to heat up and during using it's not getting any colder(so I didn't need to make any breaks when using it just to wait for it getting a bit warmer again). So I read instruction very, very carefully ...
