I was so impressed with the first pair, I went and got these a couple of months ago. I got them from boots but would imagine they are readily available elsewhere. I was lucky as I bought them when they were reduced so I only paid £27 for them. They are normally around the £40 mark but compared to the price of ...

Review of Remington S 2012 PRO SLIM
Advantages: straight, shiny, beautiful hair in minutes! Disadvantages: none
...it, I picked out this Remington pair.
Within 3 minutes of plugging them in, they are warm enough to start using- they straighten my hair without taking away its natural volume (something the GHD's did- they made it too flat and lifeless) The temperature dial was pretty useless to me, as I just leave the temperature on the warmest setting- but if you only need them to sort out a couple of kinks- you'd probably find the plates get too hot and so you'd ... ...The plates are quite large meaning you can cut down the amount of time you spend straightening. They also come with a handy storage pouch- which is great to keep them tidied away in.
I remember paying around 30pounds for them- A great price, one which I would have gladly paid again if anything was to happen to the pair I bought.
However after 2 years I am still using them and they are still as good as the day I got them! ...

Advantages: High heat/heat safe pouch/cheap Disadvantages: Only Mains operated
I purchased the S2012 Professional Slim Straighteners approximately five months ago, and I have no complains about it!!
The come with Tourmaline - Ceramic and Teflon coated plates, which do not develop split ends or give you a rough feel. They have Nano silver for straight shiny styles and healthy looking hair. Has a top temperature of 210ºC - be very careful, they heat up in 60 seconds and they become very hot. It has a heat protection stand that ... ...carpet being burnt as the stand holds the straightener away from the surface that it is placed on. Once switched on, a red indicator light appears, so you clearly know when the straightners are one.
The outcome of using these strengtheners are fantastic, when I straighten my hair, I am left with no bumps, flicks or dodgy areas, the plates have a great affect, through the high impressing temperature. But if you do want to flick you hair out its very ...

Advantages: Straighten even coarse, wiry hair. Multiple heat settings. Sleek design! Disadvantages: not too robust. Grey colour!
These Remington Protect and Shine hair straighteners are quite impressive. I actually bought them because I was in a shop looking at the countless different types of straighteners and a lady came up to me and said she was a hairdresser and that those straightening irons were superb. They're teflon coated and glide really easily over your hair. I love the multiple heat settings dial as you can put it on super hot when you're in a rush or on a gentler ... ...because of the heat settings it's perfect for fine or very coarse hair. (My hair is really wiry and it works a treat on it!)
It heats up amazingly quickly ... less than a minute I'd say, and I love the sleek design as you can easily take it on holiday with you or keep in in a cluttered draw with no problem! On the negative side... ahem, I've had these for over a year but my boyfriend stood on them and they hinge snapped... they are currently being ...

Advantages: long cable Disadvantages: frizzy hair.
...who seem to enjoy there Remington Straightners. I regret that I will have to disagree completely. There are some disadvantages and some advantages to this product. Some of the advantages and disadvantages were:
After heating the hair using the product the hair does appear to be sleek and soft for approx 30 mins. However after this time the hair then becomes frizzy and wiry. This was a disadvantage, and I really hated having to straighten my hair ... ...becomes too hot, the instructions do advise not to use them as often within the same period of time. However if they done the job properly I wouldn’t have to! A good advantage to the straightens were the 3m swivel cable they came with, there is nothing worse then straightening your hair in a difficult position because the cable is not long enough to reach. Another good quality about this product was the heat changing options. Most straightens that ...
