I love this curling iron. I have 2 sizes, 1.5 inches and 2 inches. I bought them 2 years ago and they still work. Before buying them, I had a conair ceramic curling iron, and it left my hair shiny,...

I am basing my rating on two of these 1" curling irons. My first iron's spring gave out only eight months into ownership. I sent it back to the company which sent me a new curling iron plus two...

This curling iron is okay. Nothing more. It curls your hair pretty nicely, but the curls fall out within the hour. I have thick but fine hair, so perhaps this isn't suited to my hair type, but it...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQPvt9ajGqo In my video I demo the 1 1/2" spring barrel! I like this iron a lot! It gets super warm (up to 430 degrees) and does the job. The large barrel...

The point of this review is to say: what sounds better on paper does not always perform that way. You will see numerous reviews stating that ceramic/tourmaline is the preferred material for...

I am not surprised of the high rating here as I know that you get fantastic curls with this one BUT it burns your hair. Your hair is in direct contact with metal. A coat of ceramic lessens the...

I don't get the hype around the brand Hot tool. This curling iron pulls the hair. It is not smooth to use. I bought another one from Mat & Max and what a difference! I'm giving this away I hate it.

This is by far the best curling iron I have ever tried and have had mine now for well over 5 years. I used to use Revlon and Conair, as well as a few other brands before. I will never go...

Quite simply the perfect curling iron for my thick, wavy hair. The 1" barrel heats quickly and evenly and creates smooth, natural curls that last all day. It also came with extra springs, to ensure...

This is the only curling iron that actually curls my hair, and makes my curls last all day! Wish I had this in high school.. Heats up very fast, not heavy, the cord is nice too because it swivels...

This is for the gold series large barrel curling iron. Well it does get hot but it leaves a crease in your curl. Also, I have only had this for 6 months and now the leaver that opens the barrel has...

I love, love, love the GOLD hot tools curling irons. At the risk of dating myself, I have used these curling irons since the late 80's (eek!) and would never use another brand. Hot Tools irons are...

I love this curling iron! I have the 1 inch and it works perfectly on my hair. I would say I have medium/almost coarse wavy hair, and this curling iron works wonders. I use the clamp and I also...

I really like these curlers. I have 1" and 1 1/2" and i like to use them by wrapping my hair around the barrel and not using the spring. I like a more messy curl then a perfect curl. I have...

As a background, I have super straight, coarse, Asian hair that has never, ever held a curl. After no success with the Remington wand, I ordered this off of Amazon for about thirty bucks, versus...

My absolute favorite curling irons! I have 3 of them! The 1 inch, 3/4 inch, 1/2 inch, and the wave maker. I've tried the ceramic purple ones, but it does nothing compared to these! They are the...

This is a really great curling iron for an amazing price. It gets so hot it can curl my hair even after i straightened them (even if it's not at maximum setting). I use it as a clipless iron, by...

I wanted to love this because of all the great reviews I've seen. I also see hairstylists using this often. But on my hair, which doesn't hold a curl, this does nothing. I feel like with curlers,...
