  • Very affordable and good quality choice!! Very affordable and good quality choice!!
I absolutely love this curling iron. I’ve used it for a lot of my wigs. It doesn’t take a long time to heat up and I love how versatile the heating settings are. It doesn’t matter what length your hair is,It’ll still get the job done. Each time I’ve used it the curls have come out very bouncy as if i got it don’t by the professionals. appearance wise I liked the gold, it didn’t burn off or look crusty even after a few uses. it’s not too heavy and I like how it has the little handle so I can set it on my counter without worrying about it falling on my foot or anything. ( the pictures below are a few of the wigs I’ve curled with this curling iron.) ... show more

  • Great quality sturdy, great price Great quality sturdy, great price
Received this item 11/21 and it was a used returned item through Amazon definitely dropped the ball on checking their returns! It had been used with hair caught in it, with rust aound the screws, and the cord was shorting out. So i called amazon requesting a new replacement. Representative assured me the nasty broken one did not need returned and I promptly disposed of it in the garbage can! "DISGUSTING" Which I received my replacement from Amazon this morning 11/22 at 5:09 am. Amazon really stepped up on this issue. Definitely "NEW" as you can see. Amazon made it right and I am very happy with the new curler and Amazon Customer Service. You can't really go wrong with the Hot Tool curling iron. Quality is top notch and will definitely will last longer, is slightly heavier than cheaper ones, the temperature controls are great, but must warn you this model and brand does get extremely hot so caution is definitely required when using. I have been using a 2" curling iron from this brand for years both professionally and personally and in my opinion it is well worth the money. I just changed to the 1 -1/2" for a little tighter curl. And very happy. I definitely recommend this model for most but I would probably not use it on super fine hair and would recommend using a heat protecting spray when using this iron. The heat does assure longer lasting curls, but curl size is also determined by the size of the barrel. Loose flowing curls with long hair use a larger size, whereas a tigher curl or short hair you would need a smaller size. But this is a high quality, study curling iron that will definitely provide a longer lasting curl and last years longer than cheaper brands. ... show more

  • Best iron EVER!
Size: 1.25 Inch (Pack of 1) Style: Pro Signature
I'm 72 and have used irons a long time. Most wouldn't get hot enough to hold the curl for long, which is a big problem for below the shoulder length hair that is thin and has little to no body on top but a little body ears down to the ends. This iron took my hair that looked horrible because I had just started steroid pills and flexeril for a pinched nerve in my neck, coupled with a sinus flare-up which left me just plain miserable. So, my hair after 2 days of "out of it mentality" was in really bad shape. Took me maybe between 15 and 20 minutes to try out my brand new curling iron. First thing I noticed when sliding the hair onto the rod and clamping it, was that, it happened quickly and painlessly. No pulling hair because of the clamp. The clamp held my hair neatly as I curled my hair around it. A big plus. Everything went so easily. I returned "my last ordered iron" because the clamp wouldn't hold my hair while I tried to roll it. That iron cost a lot more than this one too. Anyway, this iron rolled and held my hair nicely leaving it long and fuller than I expected, and after cooking chicken alfredo and making tea my hair still has some body left. Usually, there would be zilch body, none whatsoever because of steam and some light sweating in a hot kitchen. So, I truly, truly love this iron. It is worth every penny. Matter of fact I purchased another one today. It's on sale and I am blessed to have caught it at this low price. I personally would highly recommend this quality, and, not to forget, very pretty gold color curling iron. And, the handle is perfect holding size and the whole iron is light in weight. I'm a extremely happy customer. 10 stars. ... show more

  • Perfect for beach waves and large loose curls Perfect for beach waves and large loose curls

Creates gorgeous, large curls! They usually fall pretty quickly into a nice beach wave. I always set with hairspray so they last longer. This iron is excellent quality, lightweight to hold, and heats up quickly. My only issue is my hair occasionally seems to stick to the metal!

Love this iron! Feels very professional, but still has the plastic tip for us that can’t use the one that doesn’t have that safety feature. Definitely recommend.

  • Creates nice big curls Creates nice big curls
I'm a fan of Hot Tools. I've used a previous version curling iron of theirs. It worked well and lasted a long time. So I knew what brand I wanted for my next one. The 1 1/2" barrel is a nice size makes a big curl. They're more on the loose end because of the size. But that's the look I was wanting any way. I have thick hair and like to keep my max setting at 380°. Just to keep the heat damage down. . But it's nice to have the option to raise it if needed. The curl holds and sets well. The overall design is nice. It has a large, thick piece of some type of heat resistant material on the thumb piece. So it keeps you from burning yourself. Like wise on the end of the barrel. It also has a long cord with a swivel that attaches to the base. It keeps the cord from wrapping up while your twisting it. The barrel glides well on your hair and doesnt catch. I'm looking forward to another few years with this iron. Definitely a good buy and worth the affordable price! ... show more

  • Great!
Size: 1 Inch (Pack of 1) Style: Pro Signature
This is an awesome curling iron. Easy to use. Gets really hot. Only drawback is where the light is. It’s on the side and it’s hard to see. Sometimes I forget and leave it on. If the light was in a different place it would be better. But it works good and I am very happy with it.

  • Great iron but coating wears down Great iron but coating wears down
I’ve bought several of these curling irons for years because they heat high and work great at straightening my coarse hair. However I keep having to replace it not because it stops working but because the coating where the spring and roller for the clamp is keeps wearing down. Thus the little roller on the spring doesn’t move appropriately to open and close the clamp all the way. Also, it doesn’t come with replacement springs anymore, nor can you buy them on Hot Tools site (though have found some after-market ones) which is wasteful. The area on the inside of the clamp needs better coating to last longer and withstand the spring roller. ... show more
