Wow I thought when I saw these , foldable straightners which means i can fit more make-up in my vanity case- That is the only advantage to these straightners
The Look On first appearances in the shop they looked quite funky , I had never seen them any whre else before, and I was sure that I would become a talking point among friends. They are available in the standard black colour which is fine with two ceramic plates on either side. The straighteners fold by pushing in a small button which in turn makes the plates swivel towards you and lock into place with a small bit situated near to the wire.
Straightening These do heat up in around 90 seconds which is probably the average waiting time for straighteners, only one heat setting which is 190 oC. WARNING- this is hot . The wire is very short on these . Just over a metre long, so it can be quite difficult if your mirror is a fair distance from your plug socket, thats problem number 1. I do not use any product whatsoever on my hair , maybe a little hairspray at the end before going out but always washed off in the morning, so it was to my dismay that after around 3 uses of these straightners that the coating which was on the plates started to come off!!!!. I was shocked as I always turned them off straight away when I had finsished and I only ever had them on for a matter of minutes anyway- this in turn stopped me from being able to use them as I can hear my hair break off when I do. This is backed up by a friend who also later bought them and achieved the same result.
Cost When I bought these they where £45, but apparently they are in the avon book now for £10, well I can advise you that they are not even worth that.
Overall I was very dissappointed as £45 is a lot of money for something that breaks or faults so soon, not only did they fault , but they also caused my hair to break, and due to the coating coming off i am sure could be serious fire hazard. The lead is far to sort for anyone not sat next to a plug socket. Overall I was very disappointed, hope remington come up with some new products, although this has put me off buying their products again.
