I just hate this straightener. It takes a really long time (around ten to fifteen minutes) to heat up, which is pretty annoying, and when it finally does heat up, it doesn't get very hot at all. Not...Read more

I've got this for a song ($10 Cdn) and it's been great for me. My hair is a chin length bob and it's thick with a bit of a wave so it tends to take on that pyramid shape. It also frizzes in humidity a...Read more

Okay, this isn't actually a ceramic straightener. It is metal with yellow paint over it. That pisses me off. But aside from that, yes, it does heat up fast and work fairly well. It takes me one or tw...Read more

This straightener is effective and works okay on my wavy/curly hair, but the sides always seem to pull at my hair and break it off. It's like my hair gets caught in the cracks on the sides. It is also...Read more

It does heat up fast--about 10 minutes to get to full heat. But on my model, the on/off switch is right where you rest your thumb--so I'm constantly turning it off while I'm using it. Grr... It also s...Read more
