Review (4/5): Flat Iron Curl Convert
Edited 7/20/20: After using this for a while, I've noticed I have a lot more hair breakage that will no longer fit into a pony tail. I think the teeth and friction caused by the twisting of this iron may have caused a little more breakage than my flat iron or wand that I had been using earlier. Not all the fault of this iron, I already had damaged hair. So something to be aware of if you have damaged hair and you're looking for something to use regularly.
I typically do flat iron curls on my hair, and I hoped this would work easier. It did!
I have fairly coarse, damaged hair. I used this on the 170c degree setting, which is for more “normal” hair, but it gave me plenty heat to give the relaxed wave look I go for. (Yes, the degrees are in Celsius, but they give you a chart in the instructions that tells you what to use for your hair type.)
I was concerned with the slant of the plates that you would only be able to make curls in one direction, but you can twist it either way and it works well!
Also, I like the comb teeth. They aren’t too aggressive, more like ridges than actual combs. They didn’t snag my hair, and they kept my hair from falling off the plates as much (a common problem when I use my flat iron).
It also comes with extras! A heat glove, two sectioning clips, a silicon cover, and a travel bag. Love it!
