Made in China, not for strong curls
So, first off, this is a made in China (or chine as the booklet says) device, and based on the grammatical mistakes in the instruction manual English was obviously not the writers first language. So you aren't really getting an American product, regardless of where the company is based. It takes the thing up to 5 minutes to actually heat up to 450°, and once it gets there the temperature starts falling, so it's a constant struggle to keep it at one temp. I have very curly hair, like ringlet curls. This DID NOT WORK. It would straighten, but my ends would be super frizzy because there wasn't enough tension for the brush to keep a good grip and do the ends well. It also took just as long as straightening, if not more. I tried it 4 times, freshly showered hair, 2nd day hair, hair with heat protectant, and 2nd day curly hair with mouse in it, my results were bad all around. While I like the concept of having more body in my hair when straight, this was only volumous because of the frizzy ends. Overall very disappointed, sending it back. My advice, spend 1/2 as much money on a different brand because ultimately this is still a device from China, then if it doesn't work your only out $20 instead of $50.
