Review (3/5): Works as advertised, but not overly spectcular in function.
So there are two steps to getting hair braided. Feeding two separate strands of hair to the two spring loaded clamps and then pressing the button will twist the two strands separately- i.e. the two clamp heads rotate independently. Then you have to manually rotate the handle to further twist the two separate strands together. If they had made that automatic and electrically driven that would have made it more fun. On the whole it is ok but we feel that it is a take it or leave it kind of thing. Certainly not going to replace traditional hair braiding.
