Hot Tools Pro Signature Gold 3/4" Curling Iron, Gold and Black

I'm excited to review the Hot Tools Signature Series Gold Curling Iron/Wand because it is a good quality item. I discovered this line of hair styling tools when my hair stylist was using it on me. She works for a hair class salon and uses nice products so that right there told me it was a cut above the rest. I have used many curling irons in my life and this is definitely been my favorite. The size is just right for nice curls that are not too loose or too tight. The handle feels soft and nice in the head which means it is very easy to hold and also not too heavy. It heats up very fast to a good temperate. The clip on it that holds hair on the barrel while curling is tight even with my fine hair that usually slips out of these barrel clips. The most important thing though for me is just how long a curl will stay in my hair and this iron creates curls that will stay in my hair for hours! This is highly unusual for me because I can never get an iron that will create curls that last me longer than an hour! Highly recommended.

This is a great curling iron. I have used it as a curling iron and a curling wand. Simply leave the barrel closed and I use it as a wand and get a beautiful wave as pictured. The second picture depicts my straight natural hair and a curled strand. This curling iron is easy to use, turn on and it heats up in thirty seconds and sits in place on the stand. This is a 1 1/2” gold barrel. The curls and waves are long-lasting, shiny and loose. However, for a tighter curl Walmart sells other Hot Tool curling irons and curling wands in smaller sizes, 1/2” and 1”. I personally like to have and use different size curling irons for different styles and sometimes will use different sizes in one look to change it up. My hair ends up looking great and I get lots of compliments when I use different size wands in one hairstyle. Best of all, this curling wand has custom settings for less damage and controlled heat, adaptable to different hair textures and thickness. The heating range available is 280 degrees to 430 degrees. It also has an on and off switch and a red indicator light. The only thing missing is a heating glove or heating mat. However, it does have a sturdy, reliable stand and the instruction manual is helpful to indicate the appropriate heat setting for different hair types, thin, medium or thick. I love the results, the soft and loose curls. I noticed that it reduces hair frizz and my hair looks healthy and shiny after each use. The pulse technology enables the iron to get hot and stay hot for a faster, effective use. No need to wait for the iron to heat up again before moving on to the next curl. The curl is also long lasting. I can brush it out the next day and use a texturizing spray, or gel to get the curl or wave back for a softer, natural wave. I will definitely continue to use and recommend this curling iron to my family, friends, coworkers and anyone who comments on my hair.
