Babyliss Pro 230 Ceramic Tourmaline 230°C Hair Straighteners

...My previous straighteners had been Babyliss and I had been very happy with them. I have several friends who recommended GHD but since I didn't intend to rob a bank I felt I should choose something a bit cheaper( although GHDs do keep appearing on my Christmas lists!). ===How Much and What Do You Get?=== I purchased these around Christmas time and they were on half price offer at Argos at £28. I think the current selling price seems to be about ...
...sites so I would suggest it is easy to get them at less than £30. The straighteners are black with a 4inch long plate. There is a good length of cord which is useful to reach my mirror. The straighteners came with a heat protective wrap/pad.

Review of Babyliss Pro 230 Ceramic Tourmaline 230°C Hair Straighteners

They are really easy to use, with 2 simple ON & OFF buttons on top (with a light to indicate ON), & a small dial on the inside which can be turned to adjust the temperature. Time taken to reach temperature is deemed to be 30 seconds, & this does seem to be true, even after 2 years ...

Review of Babyliss Pro 230 Ceramic Tourmaline 230°C Hair Straighteners

I have owned these straighteners for over 2 years now and have used them almost everyday without problem and they out-perform every other pair I've owned. They are perfect for a number of different styles, including flicks, poker straight and curly! I have very thick hair and these actually do a better job at straightening it than my friends GHD's, and at half the price! There are 10 temperature settings, up to 230 degrees, which can suit any hair ...
...is a total straightening amateur can use them to create a lovely straight style! They heat up in under 2 minutes and come with a heat proof mat and hair clips to section off your hair. The cord is 2m long, which is great for moving around! This product, in my opinion, is the best pair of straighteners you can find! ...
