Review (4/5): great for on the go styling
from Ben's wife: I think this is awesome for touching up--for late in the day when I want to refresh curls or second day touch ups. I used it when my hair was totally straight and it took me just as long as it does to use my regular wand and you give up a little length when you use this (meaning it doesn't curl as much distance as I can get wrapped around a regular curling wand). It would be great if you need to fix your hair someplace away from a plug since it charges and runs off a battery. Also, my daughter found it easy to use--and it's certainly safer for her than a normal wand. It would be highly unlikely to get burned with this--unless you stick your fingers down into it.
