It really does work!
I ordered this 2/28 and it arrived 3/2. Shipping was quick and sufficiently packaged for shipping. The product packaging arrived with no dents or damage. I was surprised that the packaging did not include any seal to show it had not been opened or used previously. The carton holding the unit slides right out of either end of the outer box sleeve. It included the unit and a simple instruction booklet. It's more like a quick start guide, which is nice because no one likes paging through a detailed booklet and searching for your appropriate language. No CD, no inserts, no ads, no user manual tome. Awesome. A note about the directions: they read a little funny because obviously English is not their first language. They are Swedish...I did my research. :)<br /><br />I plugged it and hit the power button...where is the digital display screen?? It took me a few seconds but it illuminates on the backside through the handle. I easily switched to Fahrenheit by pressing the &#34;+&#34; and &#34;-&#34; at the same time. While it warmed up, I took the before photo (my hair was wavy, warped, frizzy and had an impression from a headband I wore all day). The straightener was ready to go by time I finished that.<br /><br />So, I'm a &#34;lazy&#34; hair styler. I do not like taking a lot of time to straighten or curl my hair. In addition, I have limited dexterity with my right hand. So the easier, the better. I have a habit of buying these styling tools, hoping that I would get the quick and easy results they promise, such as the InStyler Original Rotating Hot Iron and the Conair Infiniti Pro Curl Secret Curling Iron (both great, too). But when I started seeing these brush straighteners, I thought, &#34;I could do that!&#34; So, I literally started to just brush my hair with it, not even holding it taut like they say in the directions. If this works even in my lazy way, then we have a winner. Sure enough, 10 minutes later, my hair was straight and tamed. Normally, if I want to straighten my hair after the air dry wave and headband, I'd have to wet it, use the hair dryer and my Instyler to get it to look like it does with this one tool. It felt like a rubbery brush going through, which felt good on the scalp and was warm (not hot) to the touch on the surface. I was able to brush through my hair without any burns, even when I hit my ears and neck. I'd say it's more of a 2 in 1 styler...how can they say it's a detangler when they say to have your hair &#34;neatly brushed before using the straightener&#34;?<br /><br />I'm really happy with this product and it will become part of my daily routine. It gives me the results I expect for my fine, but thick, hair. Bonus: the long cord comes with a velcro wrap for easy storage. I received this product at a discount for my honest and unbiased review.<br /><br />Reposting with images. I'm not sure why they disappeared from my review...
