InStyler Rotating Hot Iron Hair Styler

When i first used the Instyler I didnt think it worked on my hair because my hair is very thick and coarse, so I went back to using my remington hair straightner. I've always used straightners from many different brands but remington always did the job quite well. I then moved to New Zealand from Australia without my hair straightner and so I went back to using the Instyler. Im not quite sure why but after using it again I felt as though it worked better on my hair. It left it feeling softer and straighter and it didnt burn my hair like most straightners can. I use this for my hair now. I didnt think that it was worth the money i bought it for but now I use it more and have changed my mind about straightners. my hair feels more natural as well after using the Instyler. It does take a while for me to straighten my hair with the Instyler but i prefer taking my time with this rather than burning the heck out of my hair with a straightner.

The InStyler does work, but it's in no way my favourite tool to use. I feel like the bristles don't do much other than pull out my hair. I notice more damage when the barrel is rotating against the grain of my hair so I avoid this every time. I've never been able to manage a curl with this, but I can make nice flicks at the ends of my hair! Unfortunately I don't like how that looks on me

To start off I have fine hair almost down to my waist with a slight kink in it. Also my hair is dry and frizzy on some days.It is, quite possibly, the WORST styling tool i have ever used. The bristles on the brush are so short and have so little "hold" to them that they will do nothing to straighten your hair...that is the start of the problems...a quility blow dry with a round or flat brush, requires a quality (or decent quality) brush in order for it to look right...especially for us curly haired gals...this brush does NOTHING for that..they are nylon bristles, i believe, and all nylon does to curly hair is frizz it up.

Cutting to the chase...when i was done...the end of my hair looked fried (thank god just looked fried, but weren't actually that damaged)...and it did manage to pull out a good amount of hair...so not ok!....I had to go back over my whole head multiple times with a round brush/blow dryer to get it straight...

For the price, this is beyond a waste of money...invest in a quality brush and blowdryer or a a quality straightener, and I promise, you will have better results. 

The infomercial is VERY, VERY decieving. I am very dissapointed.

I have a love relationship with my instyler. I love the straightening effects. I think it is more natural than my straightener. I could not really curls my hair and that upset me. I found its not the instyler it is my hair. It works amazingly on my friends though. A+

This was scary, it was crackly, steaming, and generally terrifying. I'm never ever going to recommend!

The instyler is definitely not my favourite hair straightening/curling tool, and it takes a lot of patience and getting used to. You HAVE to section off your hair into small sections and do it bit by bit, so not ideal for a quick fix or a morning when you're running late for work. When the time is put in however, it does do an amazing job of straightening my hair and leaves it with a shine but it completely strips the volume out of my hair and leaves it very flat (which I happen to like anyway). I can only manage to do big, loose curls with it too, no matter the amount of practice and trial and errors! It also gets VERY hot, even on the low setting, and it has singed off my delicate hair by my bangs/fringe. I think possibly cause my hair is already fragile from years of colouring/bleach, and is very fine hair, so the heat damage certainly doesn't help and breaks the hair off. I can only use this 1-3 times a week or else my hair becomes too dry and brittle-- and this is with me using argan oil and heat protection products before using my instyler. So I still need a regular less damaging straightner for in between, making the instyler kind of pointless. I only gave it a 3/5 for using it again because now I own it, so I'm kind of stuck with it! For the price I paid, I'm not overly impressed.

I didn't enjoy mt use of this product at all. Its not what I thought it was and I would never use it again. This product is not worth what its selling for these days and I dont recommend it at all

I have this , I have it for almost 2 years now.

Annnnd I actually prefer it over my hair straighteners..

I don't like pin straight hair on me and I love the polish and bounce I get from the Instyler.

I also find any (ghd, remmington etc) make my hair look more damaged..

With a good heat protectant it's fine, no burning and my hair is smooth and polished looking.

I bought the wet to dry ones and I was a lil bit worried about it but they worked a treat. My hair is nive and soft and was so much faster than my ghds. Being able to use them when my hair is damp makes it so much faster. Havnt tried to curl with it yet but plan to try.
