I have been using it for about a year, my hair is frizzy towards straight, due to the fact that it is quite voluminous around the perimeter it does not grip the root well to straighten properly and it needs several passes on each strand resulting in the hair being quite damaged. Personally, for the money, I don't think it's worth it, of course it may not have worked for me as I expected. I should note that I have quite thick hair.

Increase the money and more! The curling iron is wonderful, it heats up very quickly, glides smoothly on the hair without breaking the strand with a good Heat Protectant. It easily makes curls because it heats up and the top surface of it, without fear of burning your hands as it has specific silicone frames for the fingers and gloves!

So far, I am quite satisfied even though it is a recent purchase. I have stubborn, frizzy hair which it straightens quite effectively by using the third or preferably the fourth temperature setting out of the five available. Easy to use, heats up quickly.
