I picked this beauty up in the last Beauty Vault . My current hair straightener is on its way out . It was my Christmas present to myself . Thank you BR . I never got anything for Xmas . This really made my day .
The hair straightener itself is Champagne coloured . Thin sleek . Comes with adjustable heat setting. I love the carry bag . I was surprised to see it in there. The straightener plates feel smooth and sleek.
My hair is super thick with mad frizz. I waited for my hair to dry first hand. I put the setting on the highest . I was so surprised that this straightener was flying through my hair with each stroke . Normally takes an hour to an hour and half . I managed to get through my whole head 45 minutes . Mind blown .
Overall I was really impressed by this straightener . I won’t be going back to GHD . I’m over the moon with my results .
I quickly snapped this up in the last beauty vault as I knew it would be amazing after trialing the hair dryer from the same range.
The hair straightener is super sleek and has the same beautiful design as the hair dryer. It is a champagne colour and has a blue led screen which displays the temperature. The heat storage pouch is a lovely addition. It makes me feel comfortable to do my hair then put it away in its pouch to cool down without worrying the house will catch on fire.
My current hair straightener is a wide plate GHD and while it is wonderful the main disadvantage is that it doesn't have different heat settings,like the Remington which ranges from 150-230 degrees. I like being able to choose the heat setting as my hair has dry, split ends and I don't want to make them worse.
I have tried all the heat settings and can tell you that even the lowest heat setting of 150 degrees works well to straighten out the kinks and frizz but I prefer the 190-210 degree settings as it straightens my hair quickly without over heating the ends. The hair straightener also has the intelligent sensor technology which is a fancy way of saying that when it's switched on, it keeps the temperature of the plates even.
It does take me slighty longer to straighten my hair using these then my GHD but it does a fantastic job at straightening my hair and makes it feel soft and smooth to touch. My hair holds up really well in humid conditions too, keeping the frizz at bay so the results usually last a few days.
I love this hair straightener! There are too many amazing features to comment on but believe me when I say it's incredibly good value for money.
