Met my expectations
I'm very happy with this Cellto hair straightener brush.<br />It definitely met my expectations.<br /><br />The brush is great. It is easy to use. You can control the temperature in increments of five degrees Celsius.<br />You can easily switch the display from Celsius to Fahrenheit by pressing both the temperature up and down buttons at the same time.<br />The digital display tells you the heat setting and the exact temperature as it heats up. The rubber tips on the bristles and the outside bristles make it difficult to burn yourself by accident.<br />It's not super heavy. It does take some practice to get good at using it.<br /><br />When I first started on my hair, I had no idea what strategy to use.<br />I ended up taking large sections and smoothing those out. Then I split those large sections into small sections so I could get close to the roots.<br />It took me a long time to get everything done to my satisfaction this first time, but I'm sure it will go faster next time since I know what I'm doing now.<br /><br />It took about fifteen minutes to get through everything the first time, which would normally take about half an hour to get my entire head, which is still about half the time of a regular flat iron.<br />I could speed up the process and get straighter hair by using a higher heat setting, up to 450°F.<br />At least at this temperature, my hair wasn't as straight as I get it with a regular hair straightener, but I like the way it looked.<br />It has just the slightest hint of wave to it, especially near the tips.<br />My hair has a tendency to fluff up, but it wasn't too fluffy when I was done.<br />It had just the right amount of body. It was still frizzy, but I expected that.<br />My hair is frizzy most of the time. I was able to smooth down the frizz by using just a couple of drops of argan oil.<br />I was satisfied with these results.<br />I had to clean out my straightener brush when I was done.<br />I shed excessively. So of course I had to pull a bunch of hair out of the brush, but I have to pull hair out of every brush I ever use.<br />Oil in my hair left some residue on the straightener brush. It came off very easily.<br />At least for me, this straightener brush does not require any more cleaning than any of my other heat stylers.<br /><br />My final thoughts are that this won't entirely replace my old straightener, but it will be a nice alternative.<br />I still need my classic flat iron when I just want to fix my bangs and when I want my hair to be perfectly straight.<br />This brush is great when I need to straighten my hair but still want a slight wave.<br /><br />Plus, it doesn't leave crimps like a regular straightener does if you accidentally hold it an angle for too long.<br />It's just great to have another good option for doing my hair.
