InStyler Rotating Hot Iron Hair Styler

I found this difficult to use not only on the fact it took my longer to straighten my hair than my normal hair straighter, I found that the size of the straightener to be to large. I found that it made my hair frizzy. I have never tried to curl my hair with the instyler as I expect it will take to long!

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.

When trying this for the first time I loved the results but after using it for a few weeks I noticed my hair started to become dry and dull so I went back to using my straightener and haven't picked up my instyler since. Disappointed.

okay is it just me or is this hairstyling tool really noisey..??? I found that it did an average job of straighning my hair and the noise was way too distracting,

I feel like the InStyler takes too long to heat up and it curl it straighten with it, it takes ages to learn how to do that properly as the barrel turns and can pull the hair away from the barrel

I found the InStyler quite odd to use. It is quite bulky to use and you have to use it quite a few times for it to properly straighten. The bristles were great to 'brush' through my hair as I used it. However, I found that after a while the bristles all bent and weren't very fit for purpose.

My mum recommended this to me because it worked for her, as for myself it didnt do anything amazing. I dont like that it can only be controlled with one hand, i kept burning my hand. I have thick hair and it kept getting caught in the roller. Not a pleasant feeling at all. Because i have thick hair i had to go over the same patch a few times and still it didnt give the desired results.

Firstly ill say the positives. Heats up fast, makes your hair nice and straight and dose nice curls , has a couple different temperature settings. Now The Negatives. Its Soo Loud, Heats Up VERY hot i went to curl my hair with it so took the protector peice off and i accidentally touched the barrel on my fore head for a second and it fully melted my skin i had a big burn mark then a massive scab for ages its crazy how hot they get so use carefully. All the silicone or whatever is on the plates to protect your hair started wearing off my plates after 2 months and they are very big and bulky i sold mine and went back to Remingtons i wouldn't recommend these there a waste of money

It literally burnt my hair. It's drying, annoying (sound wise) and the curls that it SOMETIMES makes, last for like an hour. I would not use this again, my hair smelt horrible after using it and it lacked shine. It got tangled caught.
