Instant Heat 1/2-Inch Curling Iron, Tight Curl Hair Curler for All Hair Types, Long-Lasting Definition, 25 Heat Settings, Fast Heat-Up, Dual Voltage Small Curling Iron with Clamp, Black

I love this curling iron. I have had trouble finding one that is easy to use and has a decent barrel size. And heats up nicely. I have owned one like this before, but lost it. This was worth replacing. I have difficulty with larger barrel sizes because my hair is not long enough in the places where I need the curve. My hair will not respond unless wrapped around a barrel small enough in circumference, but not too big. Hence, the curve works with my fine hair, which will not be smooth enough in a larger-barrel curling iron unless I use additional styling tools—double damage. Unless you want more bells and whistles, you will be happy with this good-quality item. It is basic, with the on/off functions showing, and you need to make sure to turn it off. If you want to gift something, you might find it cost-effective to pair it with other hair products, like a heat styling leave-in product and clips to keep the hair sectioned like they do in the salons. I must use Amazon's gift delivery service because I live far from my loved ones. This is cost-effective and a tried-and-true method that still has a place in today's world. This is a product you can use carefully, yet you don't have to worry about the smell unless you push it with too much heat or products that aren't meant for heat styling. The speed and average temperature are easy. It will hold up well if you have the type of heart that usually responds. My hair is not straight and has a bit of natural wave. Though if you have straight hair, I think the medium barrel, or smaller one, will work well, especially with hair products for the body. For me this has great hold. Enjoy!

It heats up super quickly and maintains a consistent temperature, which makes styling fast and hassle-free. What I love most is how smooth it glides through my hair—no snagging or pulling—and it leaves my hair looking shiny and frizz-free.

Works great but cord is short

A bit bulky but works well. It has a number of settings giving you lots of choices. It is difficult to find a 1/2 inch barrel and the price was great on this one. I have fine hair and it does the job it should do.

Love this curling iron! Heats up really fast and curls fast. Has a nice cord length and a comfortable grip. I used my friends on vacation and had to buy one when I got home.

Really great product , just the right curls. Easy to work with and does what it says it does. I only wish it was offered as cordless I highly recomend though.

This should’ve gotten five stars but because it was designed so poorly, I gave it three and kind of wish I could give it only one and a half. The heated barrel is fine but the clamp only goes up 3/4 of the way so there’s a full inch of the barrel, the hot barrel, exposed with no clamp on it. Stupidly designed and it is designed so that the whole long barrel doesn’t even work to curl anything because the clamp only goes part of the way up. It’s too late for me to return this, so I am ordering another brand that has a more sensible designed where the clamp and the barrel are the same length. This was a waste of money. The three-quarter inch or maybe the 1 inch version the clamp and the barrel of the same length so they were just fine. Why they screwed up on the half inch or 5/8 or 1/4, I do not know.

Bought this as a christmas gift for my wife. It's a hard to find item at local department stores. It has multiple temperature settings which my wife loves and a auto shut off for safety. My wife has a owned Conair curling irons before, and swears by them.

Ya conocia el producto y estoy muy contento con el. Como lo esperaba.

Es perfecta para mí e comprado otras pero esta es la mejor

Excellent... heats up in moments... only problem is now that my hair is growing I may have to get a bigger one!!!

The second i finish the curls it goes down and doesnt last although i have a thick hair… also watch out as I had to pay delivery fees to return it!
