...to find an alternative ceramic hair straightener…
I spent well over a year deciding which hair straightener to go for and it's about a year since Ciao added this Remington product after my request and I'm glad to see there are already 3 User reviews. Now I'm finally able to form my own opinion after a years usage.
Why Remington? And not GHD's…
Due to the reasons mentioned above of high cost of GHD's I had also read worrying reports about GHD's blowing up, yes that's right, people have mentioned they saw flames coming out from the cable, whilst others have reported after a while they stop coming on or heat up much hotter than before. I did consider other straighteners like the Hai stik straightener, which is America's top selling hair straightener retailing at around £85 making it just marginally cheaper than GHD's.

Advantages: the way your hair looks after using Disadvantages: the heat of the product
...I own remington straighteners and I personally would recommend then. my hair has a natural kink and is very wavey and when i use the straighteners my hair becomes poker straight.
They do become very very hot because there is no heat settings which is an advantage really with my type of hair as with other straighteners i have used it takes a while to do my hair, but with remingtons the time spent doing your hair decreases. As they do get very hot a concern to many people is that they will be burn your hair I have never burnt my hair using remingtons.
They are very easy to use as all you do is plug them in. I have noticed that your not waiting ages for them to heat up they heat up very quickly which is good for people who are in a rush.
Remingtons are good for styling your hair using the straighteners, i curl my hair using using them...

Advantages: WET TO DRY Disadvantages: not so goog on dried hair
...I brought this wet 2 dry remington s 8001 hair straightner one year ago , from comet.for £65.
It is grey in colour, it has 8 holes on the top . it has silver metalic plates. It has 2X protection . Its made in CHINA. It comes with a styleish case. and some hair clips.
When I first brought this hair straigtener , I thought it wont last long , beause of my perivious experiance with other brand hair straigteners.
But REMINGTON proved me wrong , its being a year and its still in the same condition as I brought it ,I also use it nearly every day.
The experiance
I tend to straigtend my hair when it wet, remington is very good straigtener to straigten your hair when its wet, it is very easy to straigten your hair when it wet with remington.
It worms up very quickly when you first swich it on, and after straigtening your hair...

Let me point out first of all, that you won't appreciate the HD picture just from receiving terrestrial or digital channels. Only Sky and some cable TV companies are offering HD television broadcasts, but the BBC is expected... more
The ViewSonic to me isn't like any other flat panel monitor. Most of the flat panel monitors out there look cool, futuristic sleek and very sexy.
The ViewSonic however looks big and bulky and it stands out like a sore thumb. It does however grab your... more
