Remington S 2003 HIGH Protection

Advantages: Protective plates
Disadvantages: No temperature gauges

...Personally I have always preferred Remington straighteners and curlers for that matter.. They tend to last much longer than other brands and are of a similar price so it's a winning situation, brilliant products for smaller prices, than buying GHD's.. I have never understood the fascination with GHD's especially the price when you can but a pair like mine that are easily as good at a third of the price..! My new straighteners are Remington S2003's.. ...

Advantages: Cheap, they do work if used on highest heat setting.
Disadvantages: Doesn't stay straight for long unless used at a very high temperature.

After my old straightners broke, I went out looking for some new ones. I didn't want anything fancy I just wanted some that would keep my hair straight. I came across these at boots, they were reduced from £49.99 to £24.99. The fancy packaging on them says on the front of the box 'join the shine revolution.' They also claim to 'create no frizz, sleek hair wih up to 70% more protection from hair splitting and damage. Using the words first straightner ...
...weave, wraps and cushions the hair, striaghtening with kindness and enviable shine.' This really appealed to me as even after using protective heat spray I still use to get some split ends with my old straightners. The straigtners come with heat protective mat which is very useful.as they don't really have anything to keep the hot parts of it off of the surface they are placed on. They do have a heat protection stand but it is tiny and not very ... Read review

Advantages: Turning themselves off
Disadvantages: Having to have them on the highest heat to straighten my hair properly

The straighteners take roughly around one minute to heat up. The maximum temperature of which you can set the straighteners to is 200 degrees Celsius. To change the temperature there is a small wheel in which you push around in order to change the temperature between140°C - 200°C.On the side of the straighteners there is a light which flashes that flashes until the selected temperature has been reached. The best feature of these hair straighteners ...
...is good if you are the sort of person who forgets to turn them off and after all you won't want them to start a fire! After a few months of using them I noticed my hair was starting to get damaged even though I had always used plenty of heat protection shampoos, conditioners and sprays. To avoid this I would recommend use them every 2-3 days. To manage to keep your hair straight you will need to use them on the highest heat setting possible this ... Read review

Advantages: They design looks modern to an extent and the packaging is very slick
Disadvantages: Everything about them mostly!

...have gone from GHD to Remington S2003 as although GHD are amazing but not made to last that long compared to how much they cost I decided to purchase Remington S2003 as I couldnt afford to purchase other GHDs at that time.. My hair is quite thick. I guess if a person had finer hair these may be more suitable however, they DO leave your hair dried out, so dont believe all they hype about how they dont. The item has 'JOIN THE SHINE REVOLUTION' stated ...
...seeing as since I used them my hair now resembles a haystack !!! . On the box it states that a leading trichologist said that extensive tests had showed remarkable properties drastically reducing hair damage. It would be interesting to know on what hair types the tests were carried out on! The design is terrible!!! You have to press and hold to switch on and then wait for them to heat up, and it sometimes takes over 60 seconds. There is a badly designed ... Read review

Advantages: does the job, long cable :P
Disadvantages: needing after and before care

I bought these Remington straightners from Argos about 6 months ago. The price of these then was £49.99 and I didn’t know that apparently you cab find these straightners going cheaper. During my experience of these straightners, I have found many advantages and many disadvantages. Some of the advantages of the product were: Included with the product was a heat protection bag, this was completely useful when using heated appliances. The 3 m swivel ...
...when using these straightners, like May I have bought in the past; the cable always seems to be just a little bit smaller then needed. This is one of the reasons I chose these straightners. The price of the straightners was also very reasonable, as they are a good value for money, through bought for £49.99 after searching the internet I also have found that you can purchase the straightners for even less. The ease of use of the straightners is very ... Read review
