Description:
This large-barrel curling iron creates soft, loose waves with a salon-style finish while aiming to minimise heat damage thanks to its ceramic heating element. It suits anyone looking for gentle, glossy waves and fast styling when time is limited, particularly those with medium to long hair. 💇♀️⚡
Key Points
The long 38 mm barrel is designed to produce wide, natural-looking curls rather than tight ringlets, so it works well for beachy waves and volume at the ends. The ceramic PTC heating plate distributes warmth evenly across the hair, which the manufacturer says reduces hair damage by around 60% compared with non-ceramic surfaces. The iron reaches styling temperature rapidly, helping to cut morning prep time.
Controls include an LCD display and 11 temperature settings that span a broad range, allowing adjustments from low heat for fine hair up to higher settings for thicker or resistant hair. A rotating cord and a secure clamp make handling and sectioning easier while styling. The unit also offers double voltage for international use, which can be handy when travelling.
Consider that very short hair may not wrap comfortably around a 38 mm barrel and that extremely coarse or very short hair might require smaller or different tools for tighter results.
Usage Recommendations
For soft, loose waves wrap hair around the barrel in sections of medium width and hold for a few seconds before releasing to keep the curl loose. For looser texture, alternate the direction of winding each section to avoid uniform spirals and to create a more natural finish. Use the lower temperature settings first if your hair is fine, and increase gradually if you need more hold, according to the thickness and condition of your hair.
Allow the curl to cool before brushing or running fingers through it to set the wave. When travelling, select the appropriate voltage setting and let the tool cool fully before packing. The 60 minute auto shut-off adds a level of reassurance in case the iron is left on after use.
