If you buy this device, make sure you have either a very patient friend nearby or a good pair of scissors.  Depending on your individual circumstances, you may also wish to have either the fire department and/or the local burn unit on standby.<br /><br />It arrived on time without incident.  It was a lightning deal, so a good bargain.  It's cute, in a &#34;this is a pink girl thing&#34; sort of way.  In concept, the features seem good. In practice, not so much.<br /><br />My problem, which I must suggest is not isolated, was that after heating the device, I carefully rolled some hair around the brush to curl.  The device immediately took control of my hair, and refused to allow me to unroll. I might mention that it was hot, and that the curl I was aiming for was more beachy wave than Shirley Temple.<br /><br />I unplugged the device and begged my husband to remove this obviously cannibalistic monster from my head, preferably without removing my hair or scalp.  It took a while, and it was painful.<br /><br />I will never use it again.  I'm debating whether to return it or chalk it up to a bad idea and a warning to others.
