Review of Babyliss Pro Porcelain Rebel Conical Wand Hair Curling Tong

Shockingly cheap tong for occasional curling

Advantages: Cheap, curls like most other tongs, small & sleek design, on/off switch
Disadvantages: Hair escapes from tong's grip, non-ceramic tong, no extra features

...Six months ago, fate brought me to Argos in search of a styling tong. Clutching a meagre amount of cash in my fist (as a poor and lowly student can afford), I grappled with the catalogue looking for an easy to operate and cheap electric hair tong for occasional use, and within minutes I had found it. Visiq styling tong - small, sleek, and most importantly, a steal at £2.99 (my sensible self wondered briefly if £2.99 was even enough to cover the costs of its raw components, but my other self was already out the door clutching the tong). Turns out, the tong's not half bad. Let us review Argos' description of the item: - 16w - 130-160 degrees C - 2 heat settings - on/off switch - indicator light - 360 degree swivel cord - only at Argos This description is simple and fair. I will evaluate the tong (in my experience) according...

Review of Visiq Styling TONG

visiq ceramic curling tongs

Advantages: 3 different curl types
Disadvantages: tricky for extra long hair....

...originally priced at £16.99, i thought these were a steal at £8.49 in the argos sale, they come boxed all cable tied up (too many cable ties), and with instructions for use, care and storage. the three different tongs are:- 16mm tong with a spiral twist of metal aroung the length of the tong that teases the hair into shape and trains it to go round the tong in a way that is best to get a perfect curl. 19mm this tong gives you a really great looking medium sized curl thats somewhere beween a 'ringlet' and a wave.its harder to use if you've got long hair like i have , because it means you have to do half of your hair section and then start again on the next half (top to bottom that is) the third tong is 26mm and is used to give you really elegant and stylish curls that will make you stand out. all three tongs come...

Hydration Tongs

Advantages: Heat up quickly and create looser curls
Disadvantages: Not too good on long hair

..., and I don't think she would manage to do this on her own. Due to the length of the hair, it took a long time for the heat to get through all the hair in the barrel each time. I am sure with practice we will find the right technique. However, I would recommend these for shorter hair as they are easy to use and do not dry the hair. I would recommend using with styling and finishing products to keep the curls in place. A good buy if you want to try curling tongs without damaging your hair....

Review of Vidal Sassoon VS 0042

Hope this is a riveting read! . .

Advantages: Good kit.
Disadvantages: Limited and hard work.

.... . Eclipse - they have been making tools for more years than most of us care to remember, - err . . . no they have not actually, they only started in 1997, but yes we all seem to have at least a hacksaw made by them. You can check out their web site here - http://www.eclipsetools.com/ The company is actually based in the United States. Now for a personal opinion on the usefulness of the product, This is a good piece of kit, however, it has limitations, especially the fact that it will not always get where it is needed, as the concertina machanism has to be fully extended before you push. The plier type has the ability to get into small recesses etc. as these are worked at a right angle. Most jobs will be easier to acheive using the more conventional plier type. The Eclipse Lazy Tong takes standard rivets, so there are no...

Review of Eclipse Lazy Tong Riveter

Do not be afraid of Paper Tigers

Advantages: Lots of cultural information broken down into small sections
Disadvantages: n/a

...What would you do if you had a book that told you everything - from how to look after your health, how to raise your family and how to cast your own horoscope, right through to how to make a decent meal or brew your own alcohol? Actually, there is one such book - the Chinese Almanac, which has been in continuous publication since 2250 BC, and is updated every year. Known as the Tong Sing, which translates into 'Know Everything' you'll find a copy of this in every home in China. Of course, not living in china, and probably not being able to read Chinese - that's of very little use to you, until now. Dr Charles Windridge, whose wife is Chinese and runs a restaurant, found that many people would ask her questions about Chinese culture, but that, due to her limited grasp of English, he would find himself having to answer the questions...

Review of The Book of Chinese Wisdom - Tong Sing

It's all gone James Tong...

Advantages: Some of it's quite funny, JLH as eye candy
Disadvantages: Some of it's quite silly, Chan is a bit wasted

...Though his reputation goes before him, I don't think I'd ever seen a Jackie Chan film before - certainly not the foreign ones where he first made his name, and not even Hollywood ones such as Rush Hour. As for Jennifer Love Hewitt, I'd been sorely disappointed by some of her previous movies (e.g. Heartbreakers), but knew she'd at least bring, ahem, 'redeeming features' to the film. The real reason I watched The Tuxedo was simply that it was on TV and I didn't have much better to do and, although I've heard mixed opinions on it, if you were in the same situation I'd say you could od worse than watch. It's a kind of comedy spy-spoof that I guess could most obviously be pigeon-holed alongside Austin Powers or even something like Naked Gun. Chan plays a taxi-driver James 'Jimmy' Tong, employed to chaffeur Clark Devlin (Jason Isaacs), who...

Review of Revlon 9159U BIG Curls TONG

Concubines

Advantages: Fascinating insight into China before Communism
Disadvantages: Slightly odd translation, very Chinese concepts not understandable to all

...Su Tong is one of my favourite Chinese authors. Best known for writing the original short story behind the Zhang Yimou film Raise the Red Lantern, he writes short stories and novellas. This book is a collection of three novellas, one of which, as the title suggests, is Raise the Red Lantern. Having previously read his work in Chinese, I am delighted that an attempt has been made to bring Su Tong's work to the attention of an English-speaking audience. However, his work is not particularly easy to read and a certain level of attention is needed in order to follow the story. The novellas The first and most famous is Raise the Red Lantern. This is the story of a rich man's fourth concubine and her relationship with the first three. Lotus is from a fairly wealthy and educated family that unfortunately suffers after the death of her...
