Remington D 5510 Protect & Shine

Advantages: Fast drying, shine and volume
Disadvantages: No 'bits and pieces' just the dryer

...-ons that the other dryers seemed to have and took it to the counter. The Remington D 4410 looked a bit pathetic in it's lonely box. Half the size of the many of the other dryers and without any accompaniments I was a little disappointed. For the weeks following Christmas I ignored my D4410 and continued to use my mum's slightly heftier blow drier, until I returned to University, about 2 weeks later. The first time I used the hair dryer my mind was immediately changed. It is simple to use with 2 speed settings and 3 heat settings ranging from cool to hot. There is also a cold blast button, good for when you burn your ears. Although slightly boring looking in grey and silver, the dryer is stylish and despite not being in the shape of a duck, I learned to love the D4410 very quickly, and here's why: - There is no doubt that the D4410 brings...

Advantages: Gets hair straighter
Disadvantages: Doesn't get very hot

...When considering buying my first ceramic straighteners I wasn't sure whether to buy an expensive, more professional pair, or to buy the cheapest I could find, to see if I could get on with them. I opted for the cheaper and cheerful pair. I found this product in the Avon catalogue for £9.99.

Advantages: heat up fast, glides smoothly, ceramic plus Teflon coated, durable, 3 year warranty, safety carry case included and Excellent VALUE for money
Disadvantages: on/off switch can get switched off accidentally when holding

...they are and they are very easy to hold. They come in a dull grey matt graphite finish and the ceramic plates inside are a dull gold colour. I'd say the plates are about 1¼ inches in width (or about 3cm) so they are not too wide to handle or style with and neither would I say they are too narrow to get anything done with. If you have masses of very thick, curly hair, you may be better off with Remington's wide straightener. Another astonishing thing you notice when you first go to use these straighteners is just how long the cable is, its very long! (3m) so you won't find yourself leaning and trying to stay as close as possible to power source when styling -you have ultimate freedom of movement. The on/off switch is easy to find on top of the straightener and just slides on. There is heat protection metal stand that pulls out from the straightener... Read review
